Hi Nyaih,
It's glad to hear that your are using configurator. I'm not very sure I understand your problem. But I think you may be interested with this.
I'd created a patch for Configurator 2.0, which added a slider bar for VideoPlayer, then you can drag the slider to jump in the video. See the screen shot.
The patch file is attached in this post as a picture file.
If you want apply it, please download it, and rename to "PS12Template.swf".
And go to your configurator 2.0 panel folder. It should be "c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins\Panels\<Your Panel Name>\content\".
And use "PS12Template.swf" to replace your "<Your Panel Name>".swf.
Then restart photoshop.

Swf insert streaming video

Per adobe connect instruction http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402630.html
I should be able to play the streaming flv video embedded in swf object.
Followed exactly on the instrution and the swf streaming video didin't run in presenter after publish.
I created swf in flash CS3 and i able to view the preview of the video but inserted in presenter as swf didn't run.
Any advice? i have large video that i need to embedded into presenter slide.
thx

Not sure why but it sounds like there might be something going wrong when you are creating the SWF. There are a lot settings that need to be correct to Flash.
You can easily just publish the SWF in Adobe Connect directly. That is what I do. I do not think it is best to embed a large video inside Powerpoint. I think it is better from a presentation point of view to have your Presenter course but have the video shared as a separate pod in your room. That way the two are independent. It's more efficient as well since your Powerpoint doesn't become huge in size. You can publish SWF and FLV video natively using the share document pod.

Safari shuts down on Streaming Video (AVI or WMV)

Any time I go to a site that have streaming video (other than YouTube), Safari and Foxfire will lock up and shut down. It seems to happen when the video being streamed is an AVI or WMV file. I didn't have this problem with earlier versions of Mac OS. It would just go to the page and sit there and I could go back a page, now it locks up and shuts down. Anyone else having this problem?

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
YouTube streams video using the Flash plugin. Try uninstalling then reinstalling a new copy of the Flash Player plugin.
Uninstall Flash
Install Flash
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

Streaming Video for Windows Media Player?

I have a website with steaming video that only opens in quicktime and I need the video to also open in Windows Media Player for people who only have access to a PC and do not want to deal with Quicktime downloads. Does anyone know how to do this on a MAC? I use FCP 5, Compressor, ect.

You are going to need to have two versions of the video file. One for Mac Quicktime users and one for WIndows Media Player users.
WMV Studio Pro looks like it could meet your needs.

However you will need a Windows Media Server to stream the WMV file otherwise it will act as a download only.

Streaming video through Windows Media Player using USRP

Is there any document / guide or any example explaining how to do streaming through Windows Media Player using USRP.
Thanks
JK

Joseph,
I have been looking a bit more and have found a few examples that seem similar to what you are looking to do. Here is an example of video streaming using USRP RIO or FlexRIO https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-40747. I also found an example of doing wireless streaming of video https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-22728. Sorry I was unable to find these in my first post; I hope they help!

Embed video or stream video which works better

Can anyone give the differences between streaming video or embeding it in a web page. Why would you do one above the other. The only major difference I see is that with streaming, the server doing the streaming can be anywhere. This means less bandwith used for you web server. What other things are there.
Mark

I have about 8000 feet of very old home movies I am
going to get scanned by one of the many companies out
there that provide this service. Some will scan and
dump DV format, other will dump HDV format.
Since I'm not doing the capture and I want to use FCP
to edit and do the final composing what are the
advantages/pitfalls of the different formats? I am a
nuibe when it comes to FCP and video editing for that
matter but it appears, at least to me from what I've
read, that DV works with FCP better for editing as it
is true frame by frame reproduction. HDV on the
other hand I can only edit the i-Frames and I believe
I need to do a transcode or something on that order
to work with it FCP. Is this true?
MacMini, MacPro Mac OS X
(10.4.9) Linux FC5, FC6 servers
I think you should make the most of this situation and go with Studio X's suggestion to DVCPRO HD and find a way to archive to tape or Blueray for backup. You will like the all I frame editing. If you can only find HDV 1080i you will be able to down convert with a rental Sony HDV camera to DV. Edit now in DV and have HDV on mini-dv tape for your family’s future needs. This is a no brainier. HDV is only the beginning of highly compressed formats to come and it really looks beautiful. HDV is a great acquisition method. Plus you can have HDV captured to DVCPRO HD. Have one reel done at the local place and see for yourself.
Good Luck

Creating a custom player for live streaming video

I have live streaming video set up where I use the Flash Media Encoder to send the live stream to a Flash Media Server. Then, the Flash Media server packages this stream, and sends it to whatever websites requests it via the url. I know how to create a Flash move or even asc file, and then have Flash generate the html for that saved movie so that I can embed it in a web page and play it. But in the case of live streaming video, there is no pre made asc file or movie to reference. So I need some help about what I need to do to play live streaming video in a flash player embedded in a webpage, that will also have some custom action script for controlling playback and other things.

About a half-hour after making the changes I outlined above, and long after I closed the active Safari window, noticed that my MBP was uncharacteristically hot. Extremely hot!
Opened Activity Monitor and saw that Flash Player was still running (?) and using a tremendous amount of system resources. I then quit Safari altogether. Within moments, the heat began to subside.
May be something you want to keep an eye on...

Hello ak_kanan,
Welcome to the forums.
Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off. Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue.
Let us know how you make out.

Streaming video vs. .swf

I have created a number of CP modules for a client whose web
gurus say that their server cannot play 'streaming video'. I think,
please correct me, there is a misunderstanding on their part.
When we are playing a .swf of a CP project, the streaming
video capabilities of a server shouldn't be an issue. Right? Is it
possible that swfs files couldn't playback in this situation?
Streaming video seems much more demanding from a bandwidth
perspective than a swf file.
Thanks in advance!
Jim

If you stream from a Media Server (RTMP-Real Time Messaging
Protocol), it is only sending data that is currently being viewed,
therefore, no it doesn't cache to the users comp. It is sending
packets of data as you are watching it. Progressive download, yes,
it is caching to the users machine, and even if the user leaves
before finishing the video, it will continue to download until it
has completed. RTMP, you can scrub the video to the very end as
soon as it starts playing since it is only sending the necessary
data at that point in time. Progressive, you have to wait until the
video downloads to view that part of the video.
Edit: Terrible grammar mistakes, just couldn't bare it.

Vimeo video, NOT embedded on page, rather activated by button

On my page, I have 4 buttons (www.redeyefilmco.com) I want to click each button and have a different video open up in a lightbox style video player. Currently the site opens a lightbox and plays a quicktime file. The plan is to replace all the videos with videos hosted on Vimeo.
If you go to www.imetwithanaccident.com you'll see what I want to do. Click on the word "TRAILER" to see what happens. I do NOT want to embed the videos into the page. I do not want to create a rotating lightbox or anything like that. I am not to create a new looking website.
Can I do this directly within Muse? Or do I have to go to an outside editor for this?
- Trevor

Here are the screen shots that I see. It sort of appears that there are different states for the trigger image (as noticed on the right bottom corner of the screen.) You can see that I can select the various states either at the top left where it says "Trigger: active" or at the bottom right on the tab "States". However, when I preview in a browser, there button doesn't have different states.

THE PROBLEM
============
If you currently use Presenter then you already know that it
has some serious limitations when it comes to using video. Slide
based video must be in SWF format encoded using the old Sorenson
codec. That means your video files must completely load before they
start playing. This leads to long wait times for users; want to
play a 5 minute video? Expect a 2-3 wait time while the movie
loads. Forget longer content like training videos.
The video's dimensions are also limited as quality degrades
quickly at large sizes.
Adobe will tell you to put streaming flash video in the
presenter panel but this area is tiny and still uses the old codec.
You cannot pause, rewind and fast-forward the content and what
about if your show runs without the presenter panel showing?
If you update your presentation frequently, expect long wait
times as the video files are embedded and must be uploaded to the
server each time you make a change.
THE SOLUTION
=============
RefinedVideo is a complete solution to these issues as it
allows you to play high-quality video in fullscreen resolution with
no waiting. Use streaming FLV format using On2 VP6 compression to
provide higher quality at lower bandwidth with almost no wait times
in most cases.

Ahh, if only that were entirely true!
While you're correct that you can embed flash in your
Presenter files, it's still not possible to use the latest On2 VP6
codecs which is what you need to do if you want high quality large
size video files. Using the Sorenson codec which is what would be
required by your suggestion, means that the video tends to be quite
pixillated and limited to a small frame size, otherwise you end up
with lots of buffering delays.
Our solution allows you to run fullscreen video of unlimited
length from within Presenter and it works in self-paced
presentations and meeting room environments too.
On the issue of posting information about a product on a
Forum, my understanding of the concept of a forum is that it's a
place for the exchange of ideas and solutions. This forum is
located under the menu item of "Communities" on the Adobe site and
many people come here looking for ways to solve problems and
exchange ideas.
I've had numerous people contact me saying they have been
looking for exactly this type of solution but have been unable to
find it. It's only spam to you because you have no need for the
solution but to those looking for a way to deliver specific types
of training content, it's exactly what they came to the Forum to
find.
It's not my intent to offend, only to raise awareness.
Thanks for listening,
Terry

(Streaming) Video in PDF Functionality? and other fun things.

Hi guys,
I'm creating an internal nationwide newsletter for my company Opening in Full Screen. I've have a four minute video introduction from the chairman at the top of the page.
The Plan in theory is that the user will read the blurb then click on the poster of the video.
Then the video should open in a floating video (in the middle of the screen) and play automatically. And close when finished.
I've just used the insert video action in PDF. Used "clicked on content" floating window. Auto hide controls.
My problems are:
The floating window always appears in the top right, there is no setting on how to correct this.
The video doesn't automatically play. You have to move the mouse over the window to unhide the controls and press play on what look to be a blank window. Once the window opens id really like the video to start playing. then once its finished for the movie to close.
Also on some machines the timeline bar on the player has a bright green hatch across it. The video plays fine. I just want to know what it is.
From the research ive done, it seems this could be possible to do all in flash and insert a floating swf with the video.
But im quite a basic user in flash. So im looking for advice/help/moral support or just a nudge in the right direction.
Im using adobe pro extend 9.1. Ive got a flv 320x240 with is stream from my companies internal web server.
Chris

You can do this by using embedded Flash/Flex content in the PDF. Write or otherwise acquire a simple video player in Flex that points to your company internal webserver, and then embed that Flex app in your PDF as a Rich Media annotation instead of the video itself.

Streaming Video and Bitmap Draw issues.

Hello all,
In the current application I'm developing, I have a custom
video console. While watching a video, certain points in the
timeline will pop up a dialog box that gives the user the ability
to switch to a related video. If the user clicks the button to view
the related video, a 3D effect flips the current "main" console to
a secondary "branching" console - much like the flip effect the
iPhone uses. The videos are streaming from FMS 3, the client
application was developed in Flex, and we are using Alex Uhlmann's
Distortion Effects to achieve the 3D flip effect.
When I first started developing the application, I ran in to
the infamous "Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw" error
whenever I would try the flip. After some investigation on the web,
I found that I needed to set the Client.videoSampleAccess property
in my FMS application's main.asc to allow bitmap snapshot access. I
did so, and that seemed to do the trick. After playing with the
application a bit more, however, I found that the error would still
come about if I did the following:
1. Pause the video (stream)
2. Perform a seek while paused.
3. Attempt the flip effect.
When I did the above, the error came back. If I paused,
performed a seek, and then unpaused the video, everything worked
fine. If I pause and then immediately do the flip without a seek,
everything works fine.
It seems as though when you pause and then perform a seek,
the player forgets that it has permission to do a frame grab until
you restart playback.
Has anyone else had this issue, or anything similar? If so,
how did you solve it?
Thanks,
--G

thrown)

Hi,
I've been searching all over for someone having the same
problem that I am.
I'm seeing nearly the same thing that you are. I have
SWFVerification turned on and the swf copied over to the correct
directory. If I stream an FLV and attempt to capture grab the
bitmap data it works fine. Always.
If I try the same thing with a .mov or .mp4 file it mostly
works, but sometimes (after doing basically the same thing you've
described in your message), I get the SecurityError. If I try again
after a delay of a few seconds, sometimes it works. When that
doesn't work, if I seek a 1/10th of a second ahead in the video
then try again, it almost always works. But sometimes that, too,
fails.
Have you found a reliable solution to your problem? Has
anyone else seen this issue? I would file a bug for FMS, but it
looks like the bug-tracking system for FMS is not public. It would
be nice for it to be public.
regards,
david
