AS2 - FLVPlayback progressive download video doesn't play until fully downloaded, and sometimes it d

I'm loading video content paths from an external XML file into the FLVPlayback component. The issue I'm having is that the progressive download action is so inconsistent, sometimes it plays the video right away as the video is playing, and sometimes it does not play the video at all until the entire video is completely loaded. I would like to have the video play right away as the video is downloaded. I'm banging my head against the wall on this one. Any ideas?
/*--- autoplay is checked in the components inspector ---*/
playback1.contentPath = getNodeValue(findNode(videos, "one"));

Anyone?

Youtube videos doesn't play until fully loaded

Youtube videos doesn't play until they are fully loaded. It doesn't work for ANY streamed video, not just Youtube. It happens on both Firefox and IE. I tried to uninstall Flash and re-install it, but it didn't help. The only thing that solves it is restarting the computer, but it just returns after some time.
How can I fix it?

Hi, This is the info on the hardware acceleration and system requirements. http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
The video card affects playback:Although Flash Player can display high-quality video and images by itself, hardware-accelerated scaling uses the video or graphics card on your computer to display images and video more clearly and quickly than Flash Player can on its own.
Not everyone can use it and that's why turning it off helps. Since you have it turned off, then this no longer affects you.
They may be some add on in the browser that is causing this. Kaspersky had been using a URL Advisor that is an "extension"
but whether you have it I don't know. In IE, in the manage add ons, look for "Show"(very light text) and look in all 4 categories for it.
In FF, it may be in the extensions. I'd look in all, addons, plugins & extenstions.
If you find it, disable it. If you don't find it, then all I could suggest is to disable all IE add ons except Shockwave Flash Object and Java and see it there is an improvement. Then do the same with FF.
Hope you find out what is causing it.
Thanks,

Videos won't play until fully loaded when using Flash Player

Hello,
When I try to play videos using flash player, it usually takes a very long time for them to start playing, because they do not start until the entire video is loaded. However, disabling flash player and using something like Quicktime allows me to start watching a video once enough of it has buffered.
I'm currently using Windows 7 x64, and it happens across browses (Firefox, Chrome, IE). I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling the latest version of Flash player several times, but no luck. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

How video is played is determined from the content/server, not flash player itself. Are you seeing this happen with YouTube?

Youtube video doesn't play on captivate project online

Hi there, I need help, I have 4 equal projects made on Captivate 8 for mac, the difference between them is the video from youtube they should play. When from my computer I run the links online the videos play OK, but from different computers one of the videos doesn't play, I already checked and changed the links for the youtube widget, but still no result. Any Idea or suggestion? Thx in advance!

You should use Flash debug version. When you do, you will se a security error:
SecurityError: Error #2148: SWF file http://clienttestsite.x10.mx/beta/swfs/managers.swf cannot access local resource C:\Users\Demetrius McClain\Desktop\Value Insight\chevrolet\video.f4v. Only local-with-filesystem and trusted local SWF files may access local resources.

Obviously, you hardcoded video path to your local machine. Change that.

Video doesn't play on internet

Hey Good People,
I have been scratching my head trying to figure out why this Flash video doesn't play. I checked to make sure it is in the correct format. I've tried FLV and H.264 neither of which plays. The custom play button appears and the alpha goes to 0 when clicked but the video doesn't play. It works in the flash environment and on my desktop when I dropped it into an html shell. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make this work?

hope someone can help!

May have something to do with whether or not the URL can be reached while building your widget. I've got a video on the web. When I enter the URL into the field for the video object and click to another field, the URL is replaced with some text indicating that it is accessing the video then updates itself to displaying just the name of the video file.
It shows just fine in preview and I can see the full path to the video when I export the widget so it should work for you.
Is the video accessible from your Mac while you're laying out your widget?

Video doesn't play while audio does during playback

I use FCE 1.0.1 and since I upgraded to Leopard I have had a little problem. When I put the video setting in Fire-Wire, it plays fine with audio playing through my camcorder. But when I put the video setting in Real Time to play the audio through my speakers, the video doesn't play while the audio is playing fine. After 5 or 6 seconds, the audio stops playing too.
My G5 is a single 1.8 GHz processor and I am running 10.5.1
Anything?

I appreciate your insight with this. If I could ask one more set of questions; Would you recommend the "upgrade" linked below or the Full version? And what will be the practical differences for me the user?
I have started a new project in version 1.0.1 (capturing and a few edits, etc) since upgrading to Leopard. Will all of my work be there with either upgrade or full version after install?
Thanks so much.

Very slow downloads,videos slow & Choppy playing

In the last few days when I try to watch/download ANY Videos it takes a long time. The videos load slowly,start to play,then load some more, start to play and on and on. Very choppy, stop and go.
The video has to constantly stop playing,download some more,then play a few seconds and then download some more,play a few seconds,etc.,etc.!
Have noticed downloads of other kinds also seem to be taking longer. However, no problem going to websites.
Please help and advise. I also upgraded to Mozilla 5.0 from 3.6 but no change or improvement!
Thank you!

I'm not getting errors, but I am getting unacceptable download times that have worsened since January 2011. I tend to think that Apple's content servers for iTunes are overwhelmed, but there is no excuse for having to wait an hour for a movie rental on my AppleTV, or 45 minutes for a music download to my Mac. It's just not acceptable; these files are not particularly large, and my cable connection is otherwise fast.
As for the hopes of improved download times once the farm goes live, I wouldn't count on it: any increase we (as end users) may experience will evaporate as the number of new users exponentially increases. Then it's back to dialup-like download times.
Steve-o needs to get his act together and get the situation corrected.

How do I re-download videos which have been uploaded onto iCloud and deleted from my device?

How do I re-download videos which have been uploaded onto iCloud and deleted from my device?

Hi yvrtoakl,
I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear on what you mean by "uploaded onto iCloud". If you are referring to videos synced to iCloud using the new iCloud Photo Library feature, you may find the following article helpful:
iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
On the other hand, if you are talking about video files that have been stored on iCloud using iCloud Drive, then this article may be of more use:

Some videos will not play in FF 4 (and earlier versions)

Some videos will not play in FF 4 (and earlier versions) particularly on facebook. I have the latest version of shockwave flash. Here's what I've tried and has not worked: disabled ad blocker, turned hardware acceleration on/off, installed WMP plug-in, installed VLC multimedia plug-in, installed quick time plug-in, changed plugin-container.exe compatibility to win98/ME. Samething in Win 7. Thanks.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Flash video wont play until fully buffered

Some flash videos, like ones from blip.com wont play until fully buffered but Youtube and other flash based sites work just fine. The ads will play, but when they are done it will just be a buffering wheel until it is 100%, then it works like normal.I have tried; reinstalling flash, different browsers (chrome, Firefox, IE), reinstalling browsers, disabling all extensions/plugin, disabling anti virus, but nothing seems to work. When the same video is played in windows safe mode, they work just fine, so its something else running

Post a link to the page, please.

Video doesn't play on ipod...similar threads have not worked

hi,
i've seen some threads that are discussing the same issue but not the same exact problem. the video doesn't show on my ipod, although the sound works. on itunes, both work fine. i've already set tv out to off so it should be working as the support help has suggested. i know that images work fine since i can see photos on my ipod. it's just the video that isn't working.

Still more. I did go to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/892474 and removed the flash player data as suggested and that didn't help
Also, when I go to http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html#main_2__Disable_Ac tiveX_Filtering__if_you_are_using_Internet_Explorer_9
and later http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
It shows no version information nor is there any picture activity. Not even a blank gray box
On the first link above (Disable_ActiveX_Filtering) it lists several suggestions. Here they are and what I have or have found
Ensure that the latest version of Flash Player is installed <<<YES - 11.9.900.117
Disable ActiveX Filtering (if you are using Internet Explorer 9) (It is unchecked in IE 10)
Enable Flash Player Add-ons (if you are using Internet Explorer) <ENABLED)
Disable the RealPlayer functionality, Downloading & Recording, if you are using Flash Player 11.3 on Mozilla Firefox. No RealPlayer on computer
Ensure that you have the latest version of Flash Player (if you are using Chrome) Chrome works
Delete all Flash Player browsing data <<<DONE
Remove Flash Player cache <<<DONE
Disable Flash Player hardware acceleration <<<Did so on YouTube but can't get to this on bad sites
Increase the storage limit for a specific website <<<<Can't get to this option on bad sites
Report the issue to the Flash Player forum <<<You are reading this. I reported
THANKS IN ADVANCE

Video doesn't play in Android 4.2.2, but it plays in Android 4.1.2 (Captivate 8)

I have a slide with an event video (mp4). I publish to HTML5.
The video plays as expected in Android 4.1.2's built in browser, but it doesn't play in Android 4.2.2's built in browser.
I have tried with and without autoplay. I've also tried starting the video with a button.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanx
Jørgen

Hi there
First, please report it to Adobe using the link below. But I'd have to say I'm inclined to believe the issue is likely on the Android side. I mean, since it seems fine in one browser and works.
