Cannot get 92MB flash video to play on server

I've done this numerous times locally, but this is the first
time I've done such a large video for play on a web server.
I have a 92MB FLV (640x480 700k.) Using Flash 9.0 I created
an AS3 FLA and imported the FLV. I gave it one of the stock
players, positioned it in the scene (it's the only thing in the
scene) and changed autoplay to false. Then I published it and the
HTML. Viewing the HTML locally, it plays fine. Once on the web
server, I can view the browser activity and it loads the 92MB FLV
but the progress indicator displays perpetual loading stripes.
I have the SWF set to reference the FLV in the same
directory. Meaning, the source is simply the name of the FLV.
Here's where it gets really odd. I did the same thing with a
48MB FLV and it works fine. Both are encoded the same other than
the 48MB FLV is 400x300 @ 350k. I uploaded it (with the player swf,
and AC file of course) to the web server and it plays perfectly. It
downloads as it plays.
So I took that FLA, saved as, changed the source of the FLV
to the 700k file, resized the scene, positioned the FLV and hit
publish. I made no other changes from the 350k file. I uploaded the
swf and HTML and it still wont play. I've tried three browsers on
two different machines... same issue on all.
Any ideas why it wont play? It plays locally and when linked
to a smaller file.
Thanks

Did you embed the FLV or do you reference to the files? What
is the filename (any non-ASCII characters, starting with
digit)?

  • Cannot get my Flash file to play on my website - pls help!

    If you go to the website: www.rileyforjustice.com you should see my problem.  The white square is my embedded flash swf file, but as you can see it isn't playing.  In Flash, when I test the movie, it plays beautifully.  When I put it on my webpage, it's just blank.  What bothers me is that I embed Flash swf files frequently with zero problems.  The only difference is that this is a video.  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
    The swf file is properly uploaded to my server. I've attached the swf file for reference.
    The html is:
      <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="320" height="240" id="FlashID" title="TDR">
                    <param name="movie" value="intro2.swf" />
                    <param name="quality" value="high" />
                    <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
                    <param name="swfversion" value="9.0.45.0" />
                    <!-- This param tag prompts users with Flash Player 6.0 r65 and higher to download the latest version of Flash Player. Delete it if you don’t want users to see the prompt. -->

                      <param name="quality" value="high" />
                      <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
                      <param name="swfversion" value="9.0.45.0" />
                      <param name="expressinstall" value="Scripts/expressInstall.swf" />
                      <!-- The browser displays the following alternative content for users with Flash Player 6.0 and older. -->
                      <div>
                        <h4>Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.</h4>
                        <p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" width="112" height="33" /></a></p>
                      </div>
                      <!--[if !IE]>-->
                    </object>
                    <!--<![endif]-->
                  </object>

    If you look at both the file you attached and the file on the server, they are blank white screens.  So the problem appears to not be with the embedding process, but with the file itself.  Does the file happen to load something dynamically that you have neglected to include/upload?  What you should do is get the swf to display properly via the address www.rileyforjustice.com/intro2.swf without the web page first.  I'm pretty sure once you figure that out it will play in the page.

  • 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

  • Flash Video not playing in IE6

    I have a flash video embedded in my page that plays fine in
    FF and IE7, however when loading the page in IE6 the video is
    absent (the "red x" is in its place) and I receive the message
    "Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls
    on this page. As a result the page may not display correctly."
    Now, this happens in IE6 only on the default security
    settings. I have other sites that embed flash video and play fine
    in IE6 without warning...they weren't created with Dreamweaver CS3
    though.
    What is triggering this in IE 6 and can I remove some code
    from my page to prevent this?
    Thanks for any help to what is probably a noobish
    question.

    This would only be in local preview, right?

  • Cant Make Flash Video Stop Playing

    I am using an HTMLLoader to display a web page in a
    NativeWindow. The web page I am displaying has an embedded flash
    video that plays in it. That all works fine. The problem I have is
    that when they close the window, the flash video keeps playing. The
    only way to stop it is to close the entire app.
    Is there a way to somehow make the HTMLLoader stop playing
    the content?

    I figured it out. I found a reply that fixed this problem for
    someone with a SWFLoader and it works for the HTMLLoader.
    Here is the answer if you need it, where html is the name of
    the HTMLLoader.

    html.reload();

  • Cannot get my flash to turn off on my iphone 4? any ideas??

    for the last couple of weeks i cannot get my flash to turn off on my phone4, even when battery is completly empty it still stays on. It also drains my battery very quickly.

    Generally 10-20 seconds.  If it goes beyond 45 seconds it probably will not reset.  At this point you should plug the phone into a wall charger for at least 45 minutes to be sure it has an adequate charge, then try to put it in recovery mode to restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.  If you can't put it in recovery mode you will have to try to put it in DFU mode to restore it (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2648467?threadID=2648467&tstart=0).  If that fails, then you will need to bring it to the Apple store for evaluation.  It should still be under warranty.
