Can't play .flv video in Flash 8

I have recently converted three videos (each about 4 minutes
long) from .mov to .flv. in order to play them in Flash. However, I
can’t get them to play in Flash 8 Professional. I followed
the instructions in Flash help and imported the video into Flash
using the Video Import Wizard. I tried using each of the four
deployment options starting with “Progressive download from a
web server.” In my video folder I end up with three files for
a video, a Flash Video File (with FLV in the upper left corner), a
Flash Movie File, a Flash Document file, and a ClearOverPlayMute
Flash Movie file. However, when I open any of the files (including
the movie files) and click on Test Movie, the video doesn’t
play. To make things more interesting, I had previously converted
the same three videos from .mov to .flv before editing them and was
able to play all of them in Flash. But I can’t seem to repeat
the process with my new edited versions. I would appreciate it if
anybody could let me know what I am doing wrong.

In our experience with doing what you have described is this.
It takes 3 different pages of 3 different codes, to make
something play. Music, Videos-whatever.
html
php
javascript
Why, because someone didn't think forward enough to
incorporate it all into 1 easy to use thing at the time. There are
things available now that will do them all for you (Like my space
does for you), but we don't know where to send you to get them.
Good luck, and please do let us know if you find the proper
converter that will do it all for you and all you have to do is
give it a name, as we have well OVER 10 terabytes of video that we
would LOVE to share with the World, and writing 3 pages of code for
each video will take approximately 437 lifetimes, and we're all on
our last one already........

  • High CPU usage when playing flv files with flash

    As more and more FLV videos are moving to HD, I'm noticing
    high CPU usage and lots of dropped frames when playing FLV video in
    web browser with Flash 10. This is true even if the video isn't
    full screen. I've tried a variety of browsers (Firefox, I.E.,
    Chrome) and the problem occurs on all of them so it's pretty clear
    it's a limitation in Flash.
    Now my PC isn't high end (it has a Pentium M 1.86 GHz
    processor), but I can take those same FLV files and load them in
    something like Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player (when
    using ffdshow) and play the FLV files full screen with little or no
    drop in frames and an acceptable CPU rate.
    This is especially annoying on sites like YouTube where I
    actually have to save the video and play it back in something other
    than Flash to have it play back at an acceptable rate. This doesn't
    work for other sites like Amazon.
    Why is the CPU usage so high when decoding and displaying
    videos when compared to other media players?

    I've been doing research about this excessively high CPU usage problem (100%!) for weeks because I have also experienced it with my vista home premium laptop. Just recently, I have finally found the solution. The problem is not your browser or your OS or your pc's memory. The problem is caused by authorization for flash player.
    Read the link (posted below) carefully and follow the steps accordingly. If you have already done steps 1 through 6 with your computer, you can go straight to step 7.

    Please let me know also if the link solves your problem. I am sharing this because Adobe seems unable to provide solutions to this, and I don't want to hear people suffer.

  • I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook

    I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook.
    When using Sarfari or Google Chome, I am unable to play some videos on the internet. News clips, posted videos on blogs, and tv episodes from their own network websites. Youtube videos are fine. I doesn't make sense.
    I tried downloading an update for quicktime, but the computer claims that quicktime is up to date. Yet, the videos and tv episodes don't play.
    I have checked for the most recent software updates, and everything is up to date. Nothing is wrong with the hardware either.
    Any suggestions would be awesome! Thank you!

    In addition to Flash, you might need some other plugins.  Microsoft videos are mostly in Silverlight, and you'll want Flip4Mac to play WMVs.  Perian contains codecs for pretty much every video online.

  • Can't play YouTube videos on Safari

    Hi I can't play YouTube videos on Safari any more. I have noticed that I can play videos on Safari but not on YouTube. When atempting to watch a video on You Tube it won't finish loading. It appears to load at first evenutally stops before the video can play. I then receive the "Plug-in Failure" message.
    I am using Safari 5.1.7 on Mac OS X 10.7.4. 
    I believe I am using the latest version of Abobe Flash Player, which I downloaded when I first noticed the problem.
    Please note I do not wish change to a different web browser. Thanks for reading.

    Yes, but I could be mistaken. Below is the version of Flash Player I am using:
    Shockwave Flash
    Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300 — from file “Flash Player.plugin”.
    application/futuresplash
    FutureSplash Player

  • I have a gmail account and someone sent me a video. How can I play the video message on my ipad?

    I'm new to ipad. I received a video message in gmail. How can I play it on my ipad?

    Leslie-
    The iPad can not play some video formats such as WMV or FLV.  Those would need to be converted on your computer to something the iPad can play, like M4V or MP4.
    You might ask the person who sent the message to you to do the conversion and send it again.

  • I use Perian, can't play .flv file on QuickTime.

    Up until a month ago, I was able to copy video files from YouTube using Perian v1.2.3 (that's the last version they have).  I have Mac OS Snow Leopard v10.6.8 and all of a sudden, QuickTime X no longer recognizes .flv video files.  How do I get QuickTime to play .flv video files?  I also notice I have trouble finding the same kind of files that I could use to open on QuickTime on my Safari browser using the Downloads feature under Window.  I use Safari v5.1.7
    If Perian no longer works, is there another application I could use to copy YouTube video files?

    Hmm, Perian should provide flv playback in Quicktime. Maybe you need to update Perian? I used to always use Perian but since upgrading to Lion I have not installed it and now rely on VLC for non-apple standard media playback. Deluxe can handle the flv-format.It will convert flv to mov. Hope it helps

  • Can't play the video in my Lumia 520

    Hi
    I always love the work of nokia and this time trailer app is just Nice but there's a problem.
    I have downloaded 6 trailers and only 1 is able to play.
    Rest of them says "sorry we can't play this video on your phone".
    I have no idea what's wrong with my phone.
    Please help.
    I have a Lumia 520.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi @livinglife,
    Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions! 
    What is the error message displayed when you try playing the video? Have you tried using mobile data? If yes, does it show the same issue? What fixes have you tried so far? By the way, are you using the same phone model?

  • Can I play home video on my ipod touch?

    Can I play home video on my ipod touch?

    So, the only way to watch home video in ipod touch is via itunes? Because in fact i'm trying to use my ipod touch as a video monitor for my DSLR camera while i use it for filming. I thought i could use the hdmi adapter for ipod touch, but everyone tells me that it might not be possible, so i wont buy it without knowing if it is possible or not. I wonder if it is phisicaly possible, so all we would need for that is someone to develop a softare to use the hdmi adapter to watch a video into an ipod. I say this because my camera has a hdmi video out, but it could be with simple RCA cables too. Someone think it is possible?

  • Can't play quicktime video in IE 11 on Windows 8.1

    So, I wanted to watch the sweet new film of the iPhone 6, but after I click the "Watch the film" link, all I get is the player control... I can't get the video to play:
    I'm running the latest version of IE 11 on Windows 8.1 64-bit. I also have the latest version of QuickTime v7.7.1.
    For what it's worth, I also can't watch the video in Chrome, presumably because I have the latest version of Chrome 37.0.2062.120 m (64-bit) and the QuickTime plugin is only 32-bit and not compatible with this version of Chrome.

    I updated quicktime to 7.7.5, restarted my computer, and again I was not able to view the video. Just like the screenshot above, I can see the player, but I can't play the video. I then tried to re-install, by selecting repair as you suggested, and still it does not work.
    Surely I'm not the only person with this issue.

  • HT4437 Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Thank you for that, I wanted to make sure I was trying to replicate the same thing as you. Just tried it now, works fine for me.
    Of note though, this will take a relatively well performing network to achieve this, I have such a network, if your network is not as good as it might be, you might encounter problems.
    For the avoidance of doubt, I used the remote app on my phone to get my iTunes library on my computer to stream music to 3 of my Apple TVs, I then used the remote app to control another Apple TV and get it to stream a music video from my computer to it. Of interest I managed to do this while my wife was using yet another Apple TV (not with the remote app) to watch something else from iTunes on my computer.

  • I can't play YouTube videos on my IPhone! What's the problem?

    I can't watch YouTube Videos on my IPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1 No jailbreak) The Debug Console from Safari tells me, that there's a mistake in the JavaScript. How to fix it? I already spoke with Google, but they didn't have a problem. I can open other website and by example videos from Vimeo, but I can't play YouTube-Videos.
    I hope, you can help me!
