Combining 2 FLV Files

Does anyone know of any software or method to combine 2 FLV
Files into one without scripting it in a player as 2 separate
files? I'm looking for something that will take 2 files and combine
them as 1 FLV.

http://labnol.blogspot.com/2006/07/10-interesting-things-you-can-do-with.html
=======================
I have three small video clips that I download from Google
Videos and now want to join them into one single video - How do I
merge FLV files ?
I am not aware of any free software that let you join FLV
files other than the expensive Macromedia Flash Professional.
However, here's a simple workaround to join several flv video file
- convert individual flv files to avi using Super [as mentioned
above], then join the multiple Avi files into a single avi file
using free VirtualDub and finally convert this avi back to FLV
using Riya FLV encoder.

Resizing FLV files in Dreamweaver CS3

Hello,
I am adding videos to my websites' "videos main page", and these extra videos are going to be added to the videos currently in the flash player. I have already copied the jpg preview picture files and the flv video files into my website directory. To contain the extra data, I have already added the appropriate number of <li>'s to the index.html file of the videos folder. For each new video I have also added an <img src="...."> line to the images.xml file. The images.xml file has information regarding the id, location etc..of every video in general. It is shown below.
images.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

The only issue that I have, is that the videos themselves display in the player at a much smaller size, than the container size. I bet you could fit a three by three array of videos in my flash player. The first four img src lines are the videos that play at the correct size, and fill the flash player container, whereas the last three img src lines (the ones I added) are the videos that do not display at a correct size.
Is there any way that I can resize the flv files so that they fill the container within the flash player in Dreamweaver CS3? I primarily assumed that one can simply change the pixel dimensions (width and height) properties of the flv file itself, but apparently this is an issue regarding formatting in Dreamweaver. Online I found that one can specify pixel dimensions in the images.xml file. Does anybody have any ideas? Its probably an easy thing.
Thanks to everyone for coping with these details, and any help would be appreciated greatly.
kind regards,
Mr.V

Hi
There are a number of ways you may do this, the first would be to use the scale parameter for the flash player content, but the problem you will find is maintaining the aspect ratio and if your flv's are smaller the degradation in the quality when 'enlarging', see - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14149.html.
The second way would be to use a combination of actionscript and javascript to proportionally 'enlarge' the flv, again the above problems apply.
Finally you could change the size of the flash player to fit your 'new' flv using javascript, but this method would in all probability present layout problems for your user, a small change would be o/k, but the size of change you are talking about would not. The design would have to incorporate a fixed size div for the flash player, and resizing the player would leave a large amount of white space.
It is possible to do this using a liquid layout, but again this would cause problems with page rendering.

Using FLV files with media playback components

I can import an mpeg video to flash and export the movie as a
.swf for use on the web. However, I'd like to learn how to use the
components, and I must say the documentation is extremely
confusing. Anyway, it appears I need a .flv file to use them. I
have the flash video exporter, but I don't know how to use it. I
tried opening the mpeg in quicktime, but it won't play (I don't
have quicktime pro, if that's the problem). Can I use the flash
video exporter in Windows Media Player? Why is this so difficult?
Is there an easy way for me to put a nice little movie controller
on my .swf movie? That's all I really want.
thanks!

My solution may not be the most technical but it works. We use a combination of iWeb, dreamweaver and straight code on our site. We lay a graphic in where the flash is going to go then we replace the code with the flash player. You have to make sure the flash is in a div and is identified as a object.

Using FLV files in iWeb

Looking for help!
I'm creating sites and using iWeb enhancer to embed swf. files into my site. I've had no trouble getting basic animations and a xml based player working. Check swampfoot.co.uk then go to media to see.
What I'm struggling with is to get a flah video player to play a flv. file from a ulr. I can get the player to embed but it won't play the movie. Has anyone got any code I could adapt to get this to work?
Any help would be greatly recieved.

FLV File does not play when published to my web server

Hi. I have created a short video in VC3 and selected the FLV option to create a web page. When I uploaded the entire file content to my web server (windows 2003 server hosted at Network Solutions) the FLV file will not play. Now... if I do the same with a WMV tile, the video plays.
You can view the file at
http://www.airforcehomeseller.com/videos/va_education/VATutorials/index.htm
We have another video published in WMV format, although the video vs audio sync is out of wack at the moment, at
http://www.airforcehomeseller.com/videos/Energy%20Pricing%20101/index.htm
What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi again
You should probably double-check to ensure the standard.js file was also copied in when the HTML page was imported. It should be there but it never hurts to double check.
You might also perform a double-check to ensure things ended up in the correct folder (if you are organizing your project into folders). It could be that you moved the HTML page into a different folder and orphaned the JavaScript file.
Cheers... Rick

How can I mask on flv file in flash cs4?

Hi,
I am new to Flash CS4. I saw one video on how to use flv file in flash and mask it. It is working fine when I am using the following option while importing a video file to flash:
Load external video with playback component
But when I tried with the following option it doesn't show the background, it shows only movie which is playing nicely. But not the background which has a bill board.
Embed FLV in SWF and play in timeline
It seems the mask is not working with this option.
How to solve this problem? Please help.
Actually it should be like the above.
But when I am using the option Embed FLV in SWF and play in timeline while importing the flv video, getting the result like below: It is not showing the Bill board as above.
See the layers created:

Flash CS5 unable to play .FLV files on Macbook Pro

I have a colleague who is trying to put together a Flash package for me on her macbook pro. It needs to play an flv file. She is unable to play flv files on her computer either in Flash or using the Adobe Media Player. I have no problem playing the same files on my macbook pro, we're both running the latest OS and have version 1.8 of Adobe Media Player.
She went to the Adobe site to download the latest version of Adobe Media Player, hoping that might include whatever component is missing on her system. Because of Adobe's decision not to distribute AMP that didn't help. She has Flash Professional CS5 11.0.2 on her system. When she imports an flv video into a Flash project and tries to play it she gets an error message saying it can't stream the video. Note that the video is on her hard drive, it is NOT on the internet so no streaming should be required.
The actual error message is: "the video player is in the connection error state. It enters this state when a video stream attempted to load but was unsuccessful. There are two possible reasons for the error: no connection to the server or the stream was not found."
Since it's a file on her hard drive, and she has loaded the file into the Adobe development environment successfully, the one thing we know for certain is that neither of these reasons is correct. Something is obviously missing on her system, what is it and what can we do to fix it?

I'm getting error too (Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound). I'm getting this with CS5. This file was previously made in CS4 and never got this error.
Everything (fla and flv too) is on external hard disk.
As this work requires to be exported to mov, I've found out that everything needs to be on the mac (don't know for pc), like on desktop.
So, let me wrap up disadvantages I got with Flash CS5:
- TextField.embedFont makes the font disappear in CS5, so I can't use it, so I can't "play" with text in a comfortable way (in CS4, with embedFont = true, I was able to rotate and stuff). Now I have to make a bitmap out of it. It means 3 lines of code and a new variable, instead of just an easy one.
- I have to rebuild my entire source path structure for AS classes, as my old one (that took me years of effort to be reasonable and used to work just fine in CS4).
- I have to move stuff from my hard drive to the desktop, to make flv be played and to make a mov out of my animation.
CS5 is making my job harder and making me lose a lot of time to find out errors that have no good reason to exist (it was not error. just "place CS5 doesn't like").

After I have combined some files together to make them into one pdf, can I add and take out files?

Hello djensen1x,
Could you please let me know what version of Acrobat are you using.
Also, tell me your workflow of combining those PDF files?
Please share the screenshot of the error message that you get.
Hope to get your response.

Good day, I have installed Acrobat DC, and would like to combine 2 files. One is excel allready converted to PDF - No problem. The other one is from Pastel mailed as PDF.

Good day,

When trying to merge the files, this file ask for a Password. No password was issued from the setup or mail?

Good day abrieb93050306,
I can understand your concern, however can you please let me know that are you able to open both the PDF files ( the one you converted form excel to pdf & the other pdf that was mailed to you ) individually without using any password?
As it asks for the password, it means that the postal mailed PDF is password protected. You can ask for the password from the sender of the postal mail & then try to combine the files.
Please follow the steps in the provided KB doc.to combine the files : Combine files into single PDF | Adobe Acrobat DC tutorials
This will probably resolve your issue.
Let me know if you still experience any issue.
Regards,
Aadesh

How do I convert an flv file to still images?

This may sound stupid, but I have a downloaded flv file, and I want to use about
8 seconds to make still images so I can trace into Illustrator and then export it into Flash. (both are older versions).
Is this possible?
It is for an animinated logo.
Thanx.

Change the a to an r so it reads .m4r Drag the file to the desktop, double click and it ends up in ringtones folder.

Hiding filenames when combining multiple files into a single .pdf

I'm fairly new to this Acrobat X. I'm trying to assemble my portfolio to distribute to employers but I cannot seem to get rid/hide the filenames in the final pdf file. I was using the option to 'combine multiple files into a single pdf' because I was compiling images and documents to a single readable pdf file. I got all that done but once I open it, I'd see that each page would still contain the original file names rather than page numbers - which I prefer not to have employers see for the sake of tidiness (and I refuse to use the Adobe portfolio because it's not really efficient on space or design. I prefer a simple page-by-page pdf). So I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to hide my file names, change them into page numbers or getting rid of them all together so the 'Table of Contents' in the pdf preview mode would not show anything, I would really much appreciate it.
-Ss

Well, when the .pdf is in the final, deliverable form; I open it in Mac preview mode and the sidebar is always extended showing a 'table of contents' rather than having each document in the pdf file have a number designating a page name, it shows each individual filename the pdf is composed of. Not too sure about bookmark, though. Thanks for the reply!
If you want, I can send the file to you.

Why cant I import M4V or FLV files into my I-Movie video? Please HELP!

I just got the new Mac Desktop and REALLY hate that I cant drap and drop videos into the newer (i-Life11) -Imovie like I was used to since 2010. Seems to only work for photos. Is there a way around that?
So I am making a church youth group video where I have spent HOURS trying to get parts of Youtube videos into the video to show them. I have 2 forms saved on my desktop thanks to the software - i have a FLV video and a M4V - both converted. The Imovie already has plenty of clips that are M4V in them so I know it will take that form. It just wont let me import them..they are there but are not accesible (they are 'faded') under the File/Import/Movies/Desktop or File/Movies/RealPlayerDownloads. They aren't darkened and and I cant do anything with them.
What am I doing wrong?
HELP please. Thanks for input.
Frustrated volunteer who has spent too many hours on this!!!

Use MPEG Streamclip to convert them to DV. In the case of the FLV file, this requires installing Perian.

How do I replay a FLV file with flvPlayback AS3

Hey Everyone.
Pretty new to Flash and AS3- so I apologize in advance if my terminology is all wacked out. I've researched this topic for the better part of a day and cannot find my solution.
I've got a .flv file uploaded on my server that plays just fine. I created the video in Apple Motion, exported out a .MOV reformatted it using Adobe Media Encoder. Imported into Flash using the import video menu command. I ended up with a .swf and a .flv. I upload both to my server, built a webpage and use the swf to play the .flv.
Anyway. Everything plays. I need a button that a viewer can push and replay the video once it stops.
I can create shapes in flash and can turn them into buttons. Easy enough. Seems like I need to create a script to go with that frame in the timeline?
I keep reading about creating a listener and an event? But it's confusing finding answer because the is no clarification whether people are using AS2 or AS3 and I feel like I'm just chasing my tail.
Can anyone point me to a tutorial or help me out? Any advice is appreciated.
You can see the video here.
http://www.evisland.com/Pages/How_It_Works.html

What you need to do is
1 drag the movie to the stage.
2 give frame 1 a lable of "frame1" You can do this by clicking on frame one, then in the property inspector there is a field labled frame lable.
3 Go to the last frame and make a play button. Give the button an instance name of "player"
4 here is the event listener code that will activate when the "player" button is clicked. It will go back to frame 1 and play.
To Clarify this is Action Script 3
stop();
player.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,startOver);
function startOver(event:MouseEvent)
gotoAndPlay("frame1");
Thats all.

How to protect your .flv files on a server?

So I have a .swf which references playback of some .flv files on my server....Is there a way to protect these .flv files from access through any means other than with the .swf controls I have created? Currently I can simply type in the url location of the .flv files and download them completely circumventing the .swf if I so choose, which is not really how I would like them to exist...
I would far prefer that they are only accesible through the .swf.
Is there any way to do this....I know it's not a Dreamweaver specific question, or at least I don't think it is...but I would be interested in any thoughts.
Thanks,
James Hooey

Lynda.com uses either Quicktime or Flash...they added Flash playback of movies within a new Flash Player around a year ago. I'm a member of Lynda and use their services all the time.
When I was trying a flash grabber it was on these Flash based tutorial videos.
Just thought you would like to know that Lynda does have a Flash option and the grabber does not work with it.
My initial question is not in any way about me grabbing or copying Flash movies anyway, but rather that I want to protect my own Flash based movies on my own website.
Thanks,
All the best,
James Hooey
