Convert standard video files in to flv file at run time

Hello All

Google Video is there any
script or tool to do this. This is urgent.
I have one project in this project client requiring function

I think you need the Macromedia Flash Media Server to be able
to do what you are asking. Flash 8 can with a Flash Video Encoder
but it does not do it on the fly. There maybe other 3rd party
servers that you can sign-up that allow you do this but if you are
looking for your own solution you will need the FMS 2.0.

I am trying to convert a .fla file to an .flv file, is there an easy way to achieve this.

I made several movies using symbols and motion twens and now wish to save these as an flv to play in a web browser.
Could someone please respond with an easy solution as I am just learning about this.
Thankyou.

Cheers for the head up, it worked, now I feel like a simpleton. I only saw the choice for doc.fla and thought it must be complicated.
Kind Regards

No worries, that is very simple to do.
Just click on File--> Save As and select your "File Type" and select as "Flv."
Let me know how it goes and if you have any questions regarding Flash, please feel free to ask me here or sending me an email.
Hope this helps,

How to create a .f4m manifest files to play .FLV files

I typically use .f4v files for my on demand playback media files, however I converted a .mov to a .flv file... How do I create a .f4m and .m3u8 manifest file that plays .flv files? Below is the code I normally use for the .f4m and .m3u8 files. This works great with .f4v files. I also included my player code. What am I doing wrong? The only difference is I'm using a .flv that I didn't use the f4vpp cleaner on.. That shouldn't give me the parse error I'm getting.
022714.f4m is the name of my .f4m Flash manifest file. Below are the contents.
<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">

to create a file in appl server you have to use open dataset and close data set..
see the sample code
REPORT zanid_test MESSAGE-ID zz .
parameters: FULLPATH(128) obligatory lower case
                      default 'E:\usr\sap\put\file.txt'.
*you change the appl sever path as per your config.
DATA : BEGIN OF list_asc OCCURS 0,
        msg(300) TYPE c,
       END OF list_asc.
start-of-selection.
*---populating data
list_asc-msg = 'abcdefghijkl'. "your sample data
append list_asc.
list_asc-msg = 'faagoaagiagig'. "your sample data
append list_asc.
OPEN DATASET fullpath FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
LOOP AT LIST_ASC.
      TRANSFER LIST_ASC-MSG TO fullpath.
      CLEAR LIST_ASC-MSG.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET fullpath.
now if you go to appl server , you will find that file in that specified path..
to create a directory yu can go to transaction AL11 and click the 'konfigurieren'button, you then you can specify the directory attibutes to create a directory
and to load a file from your loacl pc to appl server you can use transaction CG3Y also, instead of the abap code.
plz rewrad points if it helps you.

Can we convert standard video files in to flv file run time ?

hi all,
We have a one project of Flash media server.
In this project our client requiring function like whatever
standard video file he upload, our flash media server should be
play it.
to achive this requirment we need to convet that video file
in to .FLV runtime on server.
So, is there any script or tool to do this.
Thanks

How do I convert my .fla file to a .flv file?

I guess the subject says it all. What I am trying to do is
"insert>media>flash video" and it appears the only extension
it will accept is .flv.
Thanks!

Well, Flash originally did not produce video. It's a vector
based application which
creates small size internet content. What it does tho, due to
popular user demand, is
allowing us to create Flash based video compatible file
format, out of some other video
source, which we can then be run within SWF file w/o the need
of implementing other browser
based players.
Imagine if Flash was actually capable of producing video, all
the tools it would require,
editing abilities etc... and all possible export settings
etc... every one would have different
idea of what kind of video you could output. This would
defeat the purpose of buying After Effects
or Adobe Premiere. And yet it wouldn't be fully video
dedicated tool so all of use would complain
about the lack of some kind of features here or there. Best
if the video is done else where and
Flash only converts it to FLV. Adobe just want to protect
other applications and not to worry about
pleasing everyone.
They have enough of trouble trying to move Flash back into
Animators market because the last two
versions are very programmers oriented, with very minor, if
any, improvement on the timeline
animation. CS4 is the first in long time that has some new
stuff like Bones (kinetics) , 3d transforms
etc...
Does it make sense? I might not phrase too well what's in my
head but it make sense to me :)

Video Freezes when overriding flv files on FMS server

I have an flash application that captures a web cam video stream and stores it on the FMS server.
I notice when I create a brand new video, and store it on my FMS server, it works fine.
When I make another video and my application overrides the file with the new video, this is where I get problems.
When I download the flv file from the FMS server, and I play it locally it plays fine, but the timeline is weird.
The web player freezes the video during that first 15 seconds.
A 30 second video, will have a time line of like 45 seconds, the local flv player is smart enough to skip over the paused part of the video.
You will see it skip over the timeline to the good video (from 0sec to 15 secs). The web player freezes the video during that first 15 seconds.
Any clues that I described that makes you know what is going on?

Difficulty using hardcoded swf file to display flv files

Hi,
I have created a swf player using the flvplayback component to display flv files. The document in flash is 275 pixels wide by 130px pixels long. I also have my video component (flyPlayBack) set at 275px by 100px to display the playback controls. My flash code is my simple like the following
import fl.video.*;
var myflashvars:Object = new Object();
myflashvars = this.loaderInfo.parameters;
var fullVideoPath:String = "";
for (var item:String in myflashvars)
if(item == "filename")
fullVideoPath = myflashvars[item];
videoPlayer.source = fullVideoPath;
So using the above it should play the video and does.
(1) First question is I tried playing 2 different videos in my html code.
<object classid='clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000' codebase='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0' width='275' height='130'>
<param name='allowFullScreen' value='true' />
<param name='movie' value='moviePlayer.swf' />
<param name='wmode' value='window' />
<param name='scale' value='showall' />
<param name='flashvars' value='filename=sample_sorenson2.flv' />
<embed width='275' height='130' allowFullScreen='true' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='moviePlayer.swf' pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer' wmode='window' scale='showall' flashvars='filename=sample_sorenson2.flv' />
</object>
Just like above works fine. But I tried playing 2 different videos, the first video image is below
The second video image is below
I notice the video sizes are different but not the video player size, is this to do a thing called aspect ratio? Is it possible to change this using my simple actionscript code above?
(2) I also tried the full screen button but the video only takes up part of the screen, as shown below. sorry about image size.
Is this a common occurance, is there a way to access the buttons on the flyplayback instance using actionscript and overridding the behaviour? Any advice upon my current situation would be much appreciated. Thanks.

To me the first two screen shots look like you set the wrong aspect ratio/screen size. I don't see any scaling of the player at all... only black bars on sides because the video didn't fill the entire video player display.
And yes, there is a much more powerful and versatile means of displaying Flash video, called NetStream. You can design your own player and have better control over the display. I always use NetStream rather than the FLVPlayback.
But if you are having sizing issues introduced during the creation of the video... then the player itself is not necessarily going to fix that. You need to know the correct display size and aspect ratio for each video you plan to display.
However, you can somewhat adjust the display size for each video using some actionscript... as you see here:
http://www.cataractvideo.com/cv/physicians/cataract_surgery.html
an example of a larger (high brandwidth) version and a smaller (lower bandwidth) version... depending on which button you click.
More on NetStream:

Here is a great tutorial on building your own NetStream video player:

Loading XSL file in XSL Transforam action at run time

Hello everyone ,
I want to use XSL Transforamtion action in weblogic integration and name of
XSL file should pick at run time from a variable.
I am using :"com.bea.wlxt.repository" package APIs for connecting to repository &
get the XSL file from it. Check the following code
RepositoryURL repURL = new RepositoryURL();
URL myUrl = repURL.create
("wlxt://xslt/4112req-mli0018req-xsl");
InputStream in = myUrl.openStream();
This code gives me error that "java.io.IOException:Entity 4112req-mli0018req-xsl"
not found in repository.
Where as the file is actually present in the root of the repository. I am not sure
why I am getting this error. Has somebody done something similar ? I am doing something
wrong ?
Any help in this regard is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Converting a video frame to a picture file

Is there a way within FCP to convert a specific frame of video to a picture file, preferably a png or psd?

Absolutely...and if you had done a search you would have found 15 threads that explain exactly how to do just that.

Converting .mov video to an mp3 audio file

Any chance of doing this? I like the song from a video and want to save space by just saving the audio. thankx

Audio Hijack would do it. It is not free software but well worth the expense. I have used it to record radio programs, movie audio only, and a ton of other things.

For debugging purposes you could use [DriverManager.getDrivers()|http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/sql/DriverManager.html#getDrivers%28%29] to get an enumeration of all drivers

Problem Inserting Flash Video (flv) File into Site

Hi -
I'm having problems inserting a Flash Video (.flv) into my webpage. I'm using Dreamweaver 8.
I'm going to: Insert - Media - Flash Video, browsing to the .flv file that's in my local site folder, entering the settings.
In Dreamweaver, there's a big gray box w/ flv icon in the middle. But when I go to preview, the screen is empty, no video.
I'm creating the .flv file w/ Screen Mimic (a screen capture recording software). This could be a problem w/ the Screen Mimic file because I have no problem inserting other flv files supplied to me by others. This is the first video that I've made that I'm trying to insert.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would be most appreciative.
thanks!
Stacey Stanley

This could be a problem w/ the Screen Mimic file because I have no problem inserting other flv files supplied to me by others.
That would my guess too. Here are few other things to consider:
1) Does your FLV filename contain any spaces or special characters? If so, rename it without spaces as these can cause problems.
2) Output Screen Mimic project to a QuickTime MOV file. Then use Adobe Flash Encoder to convert the MOV to FLV.
3) When you tested your page, was it a live page on remote server? Did you upload the page and all supporting files to server (Scripts folder, SWF, FLV...)?

How to get a poster or preview image for my flv file

I am trying to find out how I can get a static image to show in my flvplayer before someone presses the play button to view the video.
Details:
I am brand new to flash, videos, .flv files, flash players, etc. I am very experienced with Dreamweaver, however.
I had a DVD video. I converted it from DVD to a .flv file. In Dreamweaver, I inserted the .flv file into my web page using Insert - FLV. It added the nifty little flv player with the skins. Everything is working perfectly, except prior to the user clicking play, the video shows just a black screen. I'd like to replace that with a placeholder image (poster image??).
Here is the page: http://ilovestraightteeth.webscapersites.com/treatments/incognito-braces.shtml
Is there simply a parameter I add to the object/ embed code? Or do I need to edit the video? Or otherwise? Any help would be appreciated, I'm being bounced from one forum to the next all over the place.
I've got the adobe cs4 suite, if that information is helpful/relevant. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Nancy - that definitely helped! But -- again, I'm totally new to this, so another probably silly question....
I followed the tutorial and totally got all of that, was able to add my poster frame, tested it, it all worked great. But now my video is in a .fla file; the option to export to FLV is not there. I need to get the video onto my web page now. So I tried exporting it as a .swf file, and then returned to Dreamweaver to insert the .swf file onto the page. I did an insert - SWF, the placeholder showed up, but when I tried to preview, I only got a blank white screen. I went to the Dreamweaver help files to see if I inserted it wrong, but I followed step by step and did it just as it said. (incidentally, a few days ago I tried insterting a different SWF file and the same thing happened).
(a) do you know why my SWF file is not showing up/previewing?
(b) is there a different file format I should have exported after I finished the tutorial for adding the poster image, when I had the functional .fla file?
Thanks again. I really appreciate the response.

How to get a flv file to match the quality of a quicktime file?

- here's a 400kbps flash video
http://gelconference.com/mov/cc-flash-400kbps.html
- here's the same footage at a *lower* bitrate, 391kbps, in
quicktime
http://gelconference.com/mov/cc.mov
- QUESTION: why is the quicktime so much better-looking than
the flash?
what settings should i be using in flash to convert a dv file
to an flv file?
i prefer to show the footage in a flash player because it is
cross platform.
i appreciate any advice anyone has!

Just thought i'd let you know, your links are broken so its
hard to give you any advice. Depending on the pixel size of the
movie, your data rate might be too low. The bigger pixel size of
the file the higher data rate is needed to keep details clear and
pixelation down.
A good middle of the road data rate i've found is around
1500kbps. If you are hosting the file, just make sure to set the
buffer time to 3-4 seconds, to allow the users internet connection
to keep ahead.

FLV files in dreamweaver....??

Hello,
I have just started creating websites and thus this is all still new to me so let me try to explain. A client has asked for a website and got a Graphic designer to create a moving animation for me to put on the site. He supplied the file as an FLV file. When I put it into Dreamweaver, it thinks it is a video and puts the skin on. I dont want the skin! How can I convert the file to something else? and what should i convert to?!!
can anyone help?!
Thank you in advance

Obviously the designer does not know the difference between flv and swf. My advice would be to contact the designer and ask them to supply the animation as an swf file.
Alternatively, if you have flash proffessional you could create your own custom skin and use this instead of the normal one.

Convert standard video files in to flv file at run time
