Adobe DPS and Videos

Does the updated Adobe DPS allow for videos to be embedded in the version of the publication that is meant for web sites/viewing on a MAC/PC?

DPS was recently integrated with CCM wherein you can publish as many Built in Single Edition App as you want. But to be able to built multi issue app, and a lot more publishing solution you need the Pro or Enterprise. Go through this buying guide comparisonfor more clarity. Please note, DPS integration with CCM is not a complete publishing solution. DPS with CCM is an addtional benifit for CCM users in a way.
Infact if you do just Demo alone with the Adobe Content Viewer, you don't need DPS at all. You just need Indesign CS5/CS5.5/CS6
But if you are publishing live apps to appstore, you need DPS to be able to do that. And depending on what type of content is published live, you either need DPS single edition/CCM/Pro/Enterprise.
If you are to publish just one single issue/app, Single Edition or CCM will suffice
If you are to publish mutiple Built in Single isssue app you need CCM
If you are to publish multiple multi-isssue apps you need the Pro or Enterprise

On Adobe DPS and tracking.

Hello,
I am a completely new member to this community. Thank you in advance for all that may take a look at the following questions.
I am writing from the agency side of advertising. One of our clients use Adobe DPS, and our agency will soon be promoting the client's app to drive monthly subscriptions.
First question :
Once a mobile user is driven to download the app i.e. post-click through, is it possible to tie subscriptions back to the ad source through 3rd-party tracking implementation? I'm assuming the answer is no, but I would like to just double-check for reassurance.
Second question :
Once a user has accessed this digital-content through the app, is it possible for the client to get any visibility into the engagments that happen within the app?
I think it may be answered here : http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalpublishing/ <--
but I am getting different answers about this issue from different sources.
The second part to that question : if those engagement metrics are available to the client using Adobe DPS, can those measurements customized? i.e. - would I be able to track how many page views each unique user has logged? I did take a look at the MPA metrics standard but those only seem to be sending back session duration, count of sessions, etc.
Thank you again.
mike

Hi Mike,
Here are the responses to your questions:
1) First question: The answer is as you suspected, "No".
2) Second question:Once the user has downloaded/installed the app then you can access to baseline analytics reports for basic reporting. You can also get access to Sitecatalyst that provides more deeper tracking. If you are entitling the users directly via direct entitltment; then yes you can track more detailed behavior on each user.

Adobe DPS - using video

I am trying to set up an FAQ page with a list of questions on the left which activate videos that appear in the same frame area on the right. I’ve uploaded the video as an object state, and used the button to activate and play the relevant video/state. It works ok in the SWF preview, but crashes InDesign everytime I attempt to upload it as an article. can anyone help me?

Having spent quite a bit of time scratching my head and googling i ended up finding the answer to this myself - so i thought i best post it to help others out.
What i could not comprehend was why a functioning backbone example on the ipad could not be directly copied across to work on the android device - what transpired was that the backbone example was using an older version of the AdobeLibraryAPI - taken from Derek Lu articles (from a few years ago) whilst the Angular version was using the most up to date version of the AdobeLibraryAPI. I found this mentioned and explained on another forum post:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1622729
so i went to Adobe DPS - Library and Store SDK 2.32 : Class Index : JsDoc Reference and got the latest version of the API, swopped it out and hey presto the backbone version now works on the android.

How do Adobe DPS and Hype play together? Sharing is caring.

Hi all,
This is a post to record your and my experience with Tumult Hype and Adobe DPS.
I'd like to get in touch with other users who use this productive combination of tools.
We have worked on a big folio and made some demos with Hype Animations.
One way or another we encountered some surprises along the way.
Please share your experiences here.
I'm not advertising any products from Adobe or Tumult, I just want to improve my workflow by sharing and caring
1. Adobe DPS + SVG + Hype = HUGE files
I use a lot of SVG files in my Hype animations. Makes sense right? A+ Quality, A+ Filesize.
But SVGs only work well and stay small in the browser e.g. Safari or on the iPad etc.
On our folio it seems that SVG files are converted into really big bitmaps(?) in the Adobe process (which is a mystery to me of course). The upload takes very very long, so I got curious. Are there any Adobe engineers who can shed light into this?
The "bug" above was a mistake in the process actually. There were other big files in the folder which have been uploaded with the HTML. Dang!
So then have fun sharing, I'll be updating this post now and then (mostly while waiting for the upload to finish )

Hello Calxoddity, Roger and Kirby,
All three of your answers were very helpful and I appreciate your time. I tried to send this reply message a few minutes ago and when I went to hit send, it said I was not logged in... I HAD been logged in so maybe it timed out. Anyway, this post comes through twice I am sorry.
I was feeling pretty befuddled with what to do, adding this topic to the decision on which computer to buy, etc. So your time and wisdom helped me to get my needs into perspective. I think I will start with the newer iphoto that comes on my imac and get PSE9 since my version of PSE is very old.. LOL and then, spend some time learning about aperture 3, since as Roger mentioned, I can import/move the files over to aperture at a future time. Since aperture 3 is the most expensive, it seems a wise move.
Oh, did read Kirby's article/post, thank you, very well written to help a newbie get a handle, and will watch the online tutorial for aperture 3 as well. And maybe it will tell me there, but right now, with iphoto I can easily email a photo and I think it will easily be shared with an ipad2. If I get aperture 3 and use it instead of iphoto, does it have an easy interface for sharing via email and/or the ipad?
Thanks again, you are great!

Error with Adobe Acrobat and video game

I initially installed Adobe Acrobat on my macbook pro and now it won't allow me to open the program. Then, last night I attempted to install a video game and got the following error "sorry an error has occurred while launching the installer. (findFolder-36)" and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these programs to work. Has anyone experienced the same type of problem? If so, how did you fix it
Thanks a bunch!

First of all thanks for responding.
The installed version of Adobe's Adobe OS X and Windows XP machines is thelatest patch level.
The local system .... works well ... Open Office 2010 ... create a new Word document and save it locally ... and all good.
The problem is though that same machine ... it enters network (not Windows network. OES2 is a network with Novell network client) ... and to open and create a new document to WORD .... when printing the PDF printer ... select a network drive... and when the document is saved well ... but it shows the error.
I have an amount of hours lost with this ... I hope you can help me find a solution.
Thank you very much.

Adobe reader and video

I want create a PDF, which contains a video.
So far so good but can each user who has installed acrobat reader watch this video inside the PDF?
Contains the acrobat reader the player and codec to show the video or must a special player/codec be installed on the pc of the user?
Thanks in advance!

Screen going black/green/yellow indicates a problem with the graphics driver; install the latest device driver for your display adapter - see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765
As for the installers going only to 30/40%: download and run the offline installers

Adobe Updates and Video Drivers

Could not find a better place to post this one, but perhaps there is. But for now....
I have a Lenovo 410 Laptop with discreet Nvdia video card, Windows 7 32 bit. I use it both docked with a large monitor and undocked. It has profiles for each situation. It allows for color management by the video card or by other applications - selectable by check box.
I use the Nvidia controls and have nicely calibrated monitor and internal LCD.
After each and every Adobe Update - whether to PS or Bridge or InDesign, the checkbox has moved to "Let another application control my video settings". Happens, I believe, every time.
This should not be. At least it doesn't change settings, but it takes over control of my color management. If there is any way to prevent this. I would like to know.
~Bob

I have a Vista x64 system with a nVidia Quadro FX 3500 card in it.
In my case I had the nVidia Control Panel set to "Use nVidia Settings" to calibrate the video card output so that it would generate a decent display using the sRGB profile on its inexpensive monitor. The machine is not used for color critical work, and that was a decent way to get the display close enough for its uses.
Just now, when I went to check it, I found that the setting had returned to "Other applications control color settings".
This is a server, and doesn't get much interactive use. I don't think it has had any Adobe updates (other than Windows Updates) as far as I know since well before the nVidia control panel setting was the other way. That machine does have Photoshop CS4 installed on it (no CS5), but CS4 has been updated to the latest for months.
Certainly something changed it, but this tends to point toward other things causing it.

Alternative to Flash video in DPS (and video doesn't work)

Hi,
As the titel says I want to put a flash file into my Digital Publication.
I know .swf's aren't suported. I've tried to get it to work in Edge Animate or as a videofile but my Publication won't show any video if i import a .mov, .mp4 or .flv. eventhough the movie file is in the same fodler as the .indd file.
Im all out of luck here. So how would I get this thing to work? and why isn't my video working?
Greetings
Marc

I doesn't show me a poster preview and when im preview the folio on my desktop or tablet it won't show up and the .flv will show but it is frozen and won't play.

Adobe DPS and Encryption

Hi There,
Just asking this question in advance.
I know when you submit your app, you have to tick a box indicating if you app is encrypted or not. Having created my app entirely in indesign and Viewer Builder, is there any way that it could be encrypted? I just want to make sure I tick the right box, I must admit I haven't got my head entirely around the whole 'encryption' thing.
Jillian

Select No, Viewer App built with DPS does not implement cryptology and is not encrypted

Adobe DPS and web content viewer issues

Having an issue with the tablet and web content viewer version of this particular article. I've create two separate documents one for iPad and one for iPhone, reuploaded the article and recreate the entire article all in the hopes that it would resolve the issue. Any ideas as to how I can remedy this problem? Thanks.

This is a known issue with smooth scrolling articles in the web viewer: From Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS Bug Fix Release Notes:
"Smooth Scrolling articles in web viewer may not display properly on the last page if the length of the smooth scrolling article is not an exact multiple of the folio height. For example, the last page of a 1024x2000 article may be cropped, but a 1024x1536 (2 times the height) or a 1024x2304 (3 times the height) should display fine. The issue is especially common in portrait orientation. One workaround is to make the height of the smooth scrolling page height an exact multiple of the folio height. Another workaround is to use PNG image format for the Smooth Scrolling article instead of PDF."

Sending Push Notifications with Adobe DPS

Question.
I'm testing out all the Adobe DPS and Apple options. And one of the things I would like to test is Push Notifications.
I followed the iPad publishing guide to be able to get all the certificates so that's ok. Then I was looking for a way to send
push notifications. Because Adobe DPS doesn't really have a UI environment (PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong ;-) to send push
notifications I have to do it 'by hand'. When I tested my app on my iPad I got the "app name wants to send you push notifications",
so i'm sure my certificates are working. Now I just need to send a push message.
So I followed this great tutorial:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/3443/apple-push-notification-services-tutorial-part-12
I was able to do everything and was able to send a push notification ... but I never received it. And the reason for this is because
I don't have the app device token, which is a 64 character serial number which acts as your app address. So I don't have any way of sending the notification
to my particular app. (which is a test sideload multifolio app).
Because the Adobe DPS is cloud based you don't get any code (which I love). But I think that is currently stopping me
from finding out my device token.
What I'm asking:
- Does this mean I can't send any push notifications to Adobe DPS created apps?
- If this is supported somehow, I suppose (again, correct me) I need the app device token for the created app. Where do I get this?
Thanks !

At this time, it's not possible to manually push notifications. When you enable push, only publishing a new folio displays the red badge. At some point, when third-party push is supported, manual pushes will be possible.

TransactionCannotConnectToServerError - Adobe DPS - Library and Store SDK 2.30

Hi
Adobe DPS - Library and Store SDK 2.30
What does the adobeDPS-TransactionErrorType.TransactionCannotConnectToServerError mean?
I wanted to run a login request throught the authentication service. Our entitlement server sends back the authentication token with a status code 200 but the authentication is incorrect because if this transaction error.
adobeDPS-TransactionErrorType.TransactionCannotConnectToServerError
Value: -110
Indicates the Library could not connect to the particular server needed to complete a transaction.
Thanks,
Peter

This line in Colin's video is incorrect:
"Access to Store/Library API creates new possibilities in an article"
The information in the articles is correct. Specifically, if you launch the Information Screen from within an HTML article or a Web Content overlay, you reference the Reading APIs. If you launch the Information Screen from within an entitlement banner, a custom library, or a custom slot, you reference the Library/Store APIs.

I need to know how to download all photos AND videos from 2 "libraries" within Adobe Revel. Please help.

I was quite angered last night when I posted the first time, so lets try this again:
Here is my setup: I have adobe Revel on my Mac and iOS devices and it has worked quite well to be honest until I recently realized my photos and videos are basically trapped within the software. There is no way (that I am aware) to export all photos/videos or any kind of tool to pull the raw data out of the app and put it into say iPhoto or Lightroom.
Since I am not a fan of this sort of lock-in, (something I despise and encourage companies never to do), I am sadly going to cancel my Revel account once I get this sorted and store my photos elsewhere. This is a huge missed opportunity for Adobe, as the money is not an issue - its simply that the quality of service I need just doesn't seem to be there for this product.
So here is what I am trying to achieve: I simply want every one of my photos and videos to store on my hard drive like the old days. I don't care about folders or hirarcy or any kind of organization - I can do that with the metadata later. I simply want all of my things.
My hang up is in that I have already tried methods like "Show package contents" in the photos/adobe revel route and that works to an extent, but is incredibly cumbersome as I have to sift through all of the many folders. If that were the worst of it, I might be ok. But what is truly alarming and making this difficult is that I don't know where on earth the videos in Revel are actually stored. They show up in the application and I could export them one by one but I literally have hundreds. I can't find the actual files on my Mac anywhere.
Is there anyone at all who can help with this? The goal is to make this transition fairly easy and I feel that Adobe has very intentionally made it very difficult to consider leaving. I spend >$50/month on Adobe services and I am a little in shock this application seems so poorly designed for anything other than just dropping your photos into it. Please, please help if you can. I would be so grateful as Adobe customer service doesn't seem to know or care much about supporting this product.

Hi KDT
Yeah. I agree, if you are used to a situation where "it's on the cloud AND synced down to your hard disk where you can get it" Revel is not exactly that. There were legacy decisions behind that - most not as sinister as you might think but I won't bore you with those details. AND yes you are correct. We currently don't have any way for you to wholesale download everything at once. So you aren't missing anything. Until we provide that mechanism I can provide some guidance.
I'm going to assume you have the current version of Revel on your Mac which is 2.0.
The easiest thing for you to do will be to export your files manually. You can actually select a range of files and export. So it's not a one by one thing.
You'll have to decide how best to perform the selection based on your photography habits. If you tend to take batches of files surrounding specific dates. You could do it by date. In the date view (In the applications upper right "Showing: Dates"). If you look at the end of a date row you'll see a small grid. If you click that grid you are taking into a grid view of just that date. If you select all and file>export you'll export the contents of that date.
The other option is remaining in Grid view (In the applications upper right "Showing:Grid") and perform a shift+selection where you select your first file, move down the desired range and while holding shift you select a second file (standard multi-select stuff).
One thing to keep in mind as you do this. You'll notice when you export you can export original or 'current version'. Export original does just that. Exports unedited original versions of your images as they were uploaded to us. When you export the current version of an image we'll export a rendition of the edited image. This "current version" image is not the original and in most cases will be a rendition that is not the same size as the original. So keep that in mind as you proceed.
Not ideal, I fully realize, but I do hope it gets you closer to having your images back on your hard disk as you desire.
As for your subscription. Assure you have checked your iOS Appstore subscription settings and set Revel to not auto-renew. Unfortunately for a pro-rated refund on the subscription balance you no longer desire you'll need to work with Apple as they hold the purse strings for Appstore purchases. Refunds haven't been a problem in the past so you should have no issue.
Hope this helps.
Jason
