AS 3 Video/art gallery/paypal/email/works!

I thought I'd post this. I made an
art
gallery with some of my paintings from an animated film, in
ActionScript 3, and it all seems to work.
I added features as follows:
a progressive flv
video buttons that go to the spot in
video of painting
enlarged image that loads
dynamically
video stop, start, sound mute,
replay
paypal buy it now button
email button
external text loaded
If you would like code for any of these items, I'm happy to
share it. mglad was an incredible help in getting me started with
this code, and I still can't make sense out of public and private
classes or packages, but turns out I could work it without
that.

I had the same problem. Dan Carr was kind enough to send a
reply. Here it is:
quote:
Getting stuck on the loading screen is a symptom that may
happen for a number of reasons.
The loading screen sits above the gallery and obscures the
screen while the thumbnails and screen assets are loading. The
loading screen stays in place until all the video thumbnails have
loaded - so what you're seeing is an issue where 1 or more of your
videos isn't loading.
Most commonly this is because the server isn't recognizing
the FLV mime type or one or more videos didn't get uploaded to the
path listed in the XMLfile. (Actually, the first time I saw
something like this it was because there were spaces in the video
file names - local playback worked as expected, but my server was
URL-encoding the file names which replaced the spaces with
different characters and broke the expected paths...)
I'd recommend that you do the following... In the FLA file,
select the white rectangle graphic on the "Preloading" layer and
make it invisible by turning its alpha to 0. This will allow you to
see which videos are not loading on the server. If none of the
videos load, this would hint that either the server isn't seeing
the FLV mime type, the XML file isn't loading, or there is a global
problem with file naming. (If you see all the labels on the
filters, you know the XML file loaded.) If most of the videos are
loading, look for the specific problem videos and check to see that
the naming is correct and that the files were uploaded to the
correct location.
My own issue, as Dan suggested, was that FLV wasn't
registered on the server.
Hope this helps others.

Need Help with Navigation for an Online Art Gallery

I am trying to create a web site for an online art gallery.
I am new to DW8 and I have been reading several books,
forums, etc trying to figure out how to build a simple and elegant
navigation system.
I have successfully built simple navigation using a frame set
as the index.html page. I have successfully built and incorporated
the art gallery using Photo Assist (Photo Assist is a DW8 extension
that creates photo albums using AJAX). The gallery.html page built
with Photo Assist has thumbnail browsing and a slideshow mechanism.
Photo Assist also uses CSS that I have been able to modify for my
personal tastes in terms of creating a simple and elegant user
interface for the gallery section of the web site.
My index.html frame set consists of navFrame.html and
mainDisplayFrame.html pages. I created a navigation button (using
Fireworks 8) that links the gallery.html as its source and targets
mainDisplayframe.html.
My plan was to just add about 5 or 6 more navigation buttons
and target the mainDisplayFrame.html from each navigation button to
display some static information.I think the site looks fairly good
except that the frame set requires scroll bars when browsed with
800 x 600 screen resolutions. I thought that I could just use
'layers' instead of a frame set, but there is not a "target"
mechanism when usings layers.
At the end of the day, I would prefer to just use one web
page for displaying the navigation and all of my other web pages
including the gallery.html page. I think I have the right idea but
I can't seem to get a good handle on a navigation system that is
better than a frame set.
My online art gallery that is under construction is:
http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/tburak/
Photo Assist 1.0.1 DW extension URL is:
http://www.webassist.com/professional/products/productdetails.asp?PID=108
Please note that I am not a web designer that has deep
knowledge of HTML, CSS, javascript, server side stuff, etc. I do
know a little bit about C++ and Java programming and a little bit
about html tags, and also a little bit about how CSS works. Beyond
that, I am pretty much a point and click type of web page builder.
My real expertise is more or less on photographing and digitizing
the art.
I should mention that I eventually want to build in PayPal
eCommerce if at all possible, but I realize I might not have the
skills to do so.
Any help, suggestions and comments are very much
appreciated.

Can't get "Send to web gallery" option to work on the iPhone.

I have been trying to get the "Send to web gallery button" to work on my iPhone for a few weeks now. I managed to get it to work once. I was directed to delete the gallery on iPhoto ’08 and then recreate it and make sure my iPhone was not connected to wifi and wait 1 hour, it worked once… Then never again.
I have an ongoing case open with Apple Care but there does not seem to be any definitive answer on how to get the option to work properly. One representative says that it should word fine, the other says that that feature was disabled in the last patch, (I had it working once under the current iPhone version 1.0.2 so I knew he was misinformed) I followed this Apple document and am still unable to get the feature to work: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306272
The Apple Care representative told me that the official Apple doc listed above was incorrect and that there was a better way to get the gallery to work and directed me to a Mac World Mac 911 article to resolve the issue http://www.macworld.com/weblogs/mac911/2007/08/iphonetowebgallery/index.php
I insisted that this was a work around and that the actual “send to web gallery” button should display on the iPhone the Apple Care representative told me that I was incorrect and that the Mac 911 article was the only way to get the option to work.
I actually met and spoke with the author Christopher Breen last weekend, and he agreed that this was a “work around” and that the "send to web gallery option on the iPhone should work. All I had to do was insure that I had my dot Mac account set up on the iPhone, iPhoto ’08 installed, a web gallery created in iPhoto and the option “Allow photo uploading by email” checked and published and all should be good in the world. Unfortunately, I just can’t seem to get it to work?
I am not trying to “bash” Apple I would just like to get this option to work properly. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to get this option to work?

It seems to be an ongoing issue the last couple of days..there's a few posts already discussing it in the forum. I found that if I sent the photos from my verizon acct on the iphone, it uploaded to the gallery fine..so it's a .mac account problem i think. Try it through another acct and I don't think you'll have a problem. It had always worked fine for me sending from my mac account until this weekend.

Paypal email message content not found in Mail search

I've looked on the net and can't find any one else reporting this problem so it has to be something at my end.
My Mail search cannot find any word found in the message body of an email from Paypal.
I just upgraded to Yosemite so thought it was a problem with the new OS as I've been able to search message content in OS 10.8 (and previous) for years.
However...
I just re-started using a cloned HD with my old 10.8 OS on it and the search isn't working now.
It finds everything else asked but nothing in a Paypal email.
This includes messages in my inbox and messages stored in various "On My Mac" folders.
I seem to remember this happened before, maybe 2004/2005?? Which ever OS version I was using then?
It couldn't be worked out so I moved over to Microsoft Entourage.
I don't want to switch email software again but the lack of ability to search is causing me some problems.
I did open an Apple support case on this and they couldn't give me an answer but said it had been reported already and may be looked at for a fix in forthcoming OS revisions.
Funny how no one's asked this on any community pages.
Any ideas?? Am I missing something. I don't understand how it's worked on my older OS for years and now suddenly it's stopped.
Does search need anything to find words in content that I may have inadvertently changed?

I have now gone back to my OS 10.8 disc and re-built the folder with my paypal emails in and it is now searching ok so forget what i said earlier.
I'd edit the original post but it won't let me???

Art gallery design

Hi everyone
I'm just about to upgrade an online art gallery to work more
smoothly and I wanted some advice on what script and such to use.
On the gallery, a Thumbnail image on one page links to full
sized image in another page.
How can I have the website automatically generate this for
me? What do you think would be the best script to use etc?
Thanks in advance!
Ness

> How can I have the website automatically generate this

> think would be the best script to use etc?
I'd do it server side, but if you want a quick and easy
client-side script,
LightBox 2 is good and often used.
I used it on this page:

Issues with Video Lightbox Gallery from Muse Exchange...

I've been trying to customize the Video Lightbox Gallery from the exchange, Video Gallery Lightbox | Exchange | Adobe Muse CC
I'm using embed codes from Vimeo. My first issue was that when I replace the placeholder embed code with my Vimeo code, the frame size is considerably smaller. From Vimeo it is 500x281 and in the widget it is 700x396. So I changed the frame size in my Vimeo embed and that seemed to work. Now, though, when a preview the page it plays fine in the window, but when I enter full screen and then escape from that while the video is playing to go back the smaller window, it jumps up so far up the screen it is off the page... It doesn't happen with the placeholder video and the only difference I can see is that it's from YouTube and mine is from Vimeo. I haven't change any of the settings except for the embed code. Can anyone help me with this?

I wanted to add that I am using on one page design and I have multiple video galleries further down the page. What I've noticed is that no matter which thumbnail I play and enter into full screen, when I hit escape, that window jumps all the way to the top instead of staying locked to where is originated. Again, it doesn't do it with the placeholder video, only when I replace it with my embed codes from Vimeo. This is very frustrating because I am so close to finishing and this issue is holding me up. I've searched and searched and cannot find the answer... is there anyone who can help, please?

My audio is really slow and distorted whenever I try and play a video sent through an emails

The audio of any video Link in my emails that I receive,when clicked on to play it, the vocals are very slow and distorted. It sounds like the monotone sound of vocals being distorted to make it unrecognizable. It has been this way ever since I downloaded and installed it.

Currently there is no Flash support for Firefox on Android. Fret not though, there are mobile developers working on front-end Flash support currently and if all follows through you will see Flash support in the near future in a future release of Firefox Aurora.

Can anyone give me the basic steps to create this?
Thanks

Turn on audio for video received in an email

How do I turn on audio for video received in an email? My audio works in other situations, just not with an emailed clip.

These documents are opening in a window, correct? Along the top of it, assuming you are on Windows, there should be a bar with a title in it, just like most apps.
It sounds to me as if you are being send PDF files, not Word documents. Why are you sure they are Word documents. IGNORE THE WORD ICON, that would be part of the problem.

Watching videos from websites or email

Is there any way to download and watch videos from websites or email on the iPhone? When I click the link it says Safari cannot download the file. Just wondering if there is an update or application I can download.
Thanks in advance,
Keith.

Not currently, the videos you're trying to watch are most likely flash and the safari browser for the iPhone just doesn't support it.... Its possible that its not flash and the video just happens to be a codec that the phone doesn't recognize. But so far, the only video from websites that ever worked on the iPhone we're quicktime videos. Lol no surprise there.
Anyways, I hope I've helped.
Take care!

I just bought iMovie for ipad and i cant load videos from gallery

I just bought iMovie for ipad and i cant load videos from gallery. Generally i cant load any file, but music files into iMovie
I have tried to delete and reinstall it, turn on and off the ipad, go to iphoto and export files to imovie, but nonthing works... Help?

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

Link To Web Gallery doesn't work

I created a password protected web gallery in Aperture, but when it has completed uploading, the URL to the gallery doesn't work, it never loads in Safari. When I go to My Gallery home page I see the icon for the gallery with the lock as it should be but when I click on it, I get the message " that access for this gallery is restricted and to contact the owner of the gallery" instead of asking me for the password.
If a gallery is not password protected it shows up just fine. Am I missing something? Why doesn't the url for a password protected gallery work.

Just as a note, it works fine in Firefox. It seems to be an issue with Safari and .Mac.

I want to copy email from my mac to my pc. Forwarding one at a time via email works well, but when I try to forward several of them at a time I receive one large email. I want to receive the emails individually on my pc. Any suggestions?

Don't know any 'automatic' way - but, i have "Fetch Headers only" set on each of my 'secondary accounts'.
With varying internet service, manual "Get Messages" is probably the "Best Practice" because you will know how good your service is before you even try.
maybe set "Check for new messages every 'n' minutes" to different times
(3 minutes, 6 minutes, etc.) on each 'secondary' account.
