Creating exe projector linked to flv file for cd rom

Hi! My Contact
nha khoa
I have a large flv video file that I want to create an exe
projector file (a "click me to start" file for users) that is
linked to and plays the flv video when you open the exe. These
files would then be burned to a cd rom.
Does anyone know how to create the link from the exe
projector to open the flv file for cd rom distribution.
thanks!

Is it possible that you could advise me on the best settings
to have when playing an FLV back from CD-Rom, I have a similar
problem in that my FLVs playback ok on high-spec PCs/Macs, but when
I launch in on an old PC/Mac there are serious staggers in the
playback and some audio glitches.
If anyone has any advice on how to combat this I would be
very grateful.
THE BASICS
I am using flash to present 2 FLV files via a CD Rom.
THE ISSUE
The FLV files are quite large, 1x 40mb file and 1x 43mb file
(dimensions 1024x576). Playback on a high end PC with 2GB Ram is
great, no staggering in the playback. Testing this on a high-end
Mac too yeilds no performance issues with playback.
However, when the settings are reduced to a low-end PC/Mac,
there are glitches in the audio and staggering in the visual
playback as the lower spec machine tries to cope as best it can
with the Hi-Res video.
The flv files are externally loaded into a movie clip that is
designed for FLV playback using a buffer speed 0.1.
QUESTION:
Does anyone have any tips/ advice on the best way to resolve
the staggered playback, audio glitching.
The obvious routes ahead of me are;
Reduce the quality of the FLVs I am playing.
Reduce the dimensions of each FLV.
Cut the FLV into smaller pieces and link them together via
the movie clip loader (NOT sure how to do that though?)
Does anyone have any advice on my annoying problem?
Thanks for reading.

Firefox will not show links to flv files. I get the error message for each flv file: "File not found. Firefox can't find the file at (path) .flv." Any mov and swf files in this same path will show. I can see the videos in Safari so the paths are correct.

Is this a webpage that contains a link to a flv file? Please post a link to the page and tell us which link(s) are the problem flv files or else post a link to the .flv file itself.
Alternately, click on one of the sample FLV File links on this page and tell us exactly what happens:
http://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/flash/video/tutorial/example-flv.html
It might also help if you post the exact error message, including the path to the flv file.
'''Note:'''
Depending on how you have Firefox set up, clicking on a FLV File link will either save the FLV file to your computer or Firefox may open it automatically in an external application right after downloading (Firefox may ask you first). Firefox itself can't play FLV files so you need a "helper" application (or a plugin for flv files, if ther is one. You can see if Firefox is already set up to download or open FLV files by going to Firefox Preferences and looking in the Applications list. Find the FLV file type in the list and, if the action is "Open with", it should show the application that can play FLV files (e.g., VLC Media Player or Perian). See [[Managing filetypes]] for more information.

.FLV file for web

Hello, I need to export a .FLV file for web, I dont have access to compressor.
I would like to keep the file size small but keep a professional finish, how low can I go in terms of file size?
Any suggestions for dimensions, fps etc?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

the file is a .mov
.mov is a container. The video inside could have been made with any one of a number of codecs.
768x576 is the current size.
That tells me it is most likely PAL, 25 fps. What was the source media? Could be any of the Beta formats, 3/4", D1, 1"C etc etc. More information is always a good thing.

When I click on a link to a file, (for instance a Filesonic link) I used to get asked if I wanted to run or download the file. Now it just goes straight to download. How can I stop it doing this? Thank you.

Create EXE projector makes Blank Screen

Hi all,
I am having a perplexing problem. If I open a SWF in Flash Player (v. 10.2 r153) it opens up just fine. I then go to File >> Create Projector.
This creates a duplicate of the Flash Player (same size) but when it opens, it is blank. The content is not embedded as I would expect, but rather just creates a duplicate of the player.
In other words, rather than packaging the SWF inside the player, as it is supposed to do, it leaves an open blank screen. If I drag the SWF into this, it plays - but that's not what its supposed to do!
FYI, the SWF was created by a vendor through inDesign's Export >> SWF, but the client is requesting an EXE. Short of having to open the SWF in Flash and redo all the links between content, I am stuck as to what else can be done.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

Is that also in InDesign? If so, better ask in the InDesign forum.

Create HTML that links 100 PDF files in a folder

I would like to publish my wife's recipes on our website, hoping she can then have access from the iPhone. I have about a 100 and really don't want to use iWeb to create 100 hyperlinks to a file, especially since she is continuously adding recipes.
Does anyone have a hint that could help generate such a page?

Does anyone have a hint that could help generate such a page?
Try AppleScript, it's easier than you think. Here is a short script:
-- start script
on run
 tell application "Finder"
 -- ask for folder contains PDFs
 set recipesFolder to choose folder with prompt "Please select the folder that contains recipe PDFs"
 -- get all files name
 set recipeFileNames to name of every file in recipesFolder whose name extension is "pdf"
 -- convert folder path to POSIX so can be used with Unix command
 set posixFolderPath to POSIX path of recipesFolder
 end tell
 set DOCTYPE to "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\"><html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"><head><title>My Recipes</title></head><body>"
 set closeTags to "</body></html>"
 -- write DOCTYPE
 do shell script "/bin/echo " & quoted form of DOCTYPE & " > " & quoted form of (posixFolderPath & "My Recipes.html")
 -- write page title
 do shell script "/bin/echo " & quoted form of " My Recipes " & " >> " & quoted form of (posixFolderPath & "My Recipes.html")
 repeat with recipeFileName in recipeFileNames
 -- write recipes entries
 do shell script "/bin/echo '<li><a href=\"" & recipeFileName & "\">" & recipeFileName & "</a> '" & " >> " & quoted form of (posixFolderPath & "My Recipes.html")
 end repeat
 -- write close tags
 do shell script "/bin/echo " & quoted form of closeTags & " >> " & quoted form of (posixFolderPath & "My Recipes.html")
end run
-- end script
Launch Script Editor, it can be found in /Application/AppleScript/ folder, copy& paste the script, I added comments above each line. You can run the script from Script Editor or save it as an application (File menu --> Save as..). Run the script, it'll do the following:
1) prompt you to locate the folder which contains the PDFs
2) make 'My Recipes.html' file in the same folder, that way you can upload the whole folder to you host.
Be sure you *do not* have any file with the name 'My Recipes.html'.
*If you're unsure of anything post back or make back up your important stuff (aka everthing you home folder).*
Now, the script generates a very raw page with a list of PDF files and links to them.
But potentially, AppleScript can generate html page with different catagories... such as: vegan, veggies or carnivore dishes... or French, Thai or Indonesian dishes... etc, etc... great for searching!
But, you need to add those key words in the PDF file's Spotlight Comments (in Finder select an item, then hit command+i, you'll see comments field at the top on info pane).
Spotlight Comments is meta data for Finder to find things (data base indexing).
Lastly, you can automate all these by using AppleScript's Folder Action

How to create new user, with same personal files, for troubleshooting?

I cannot find this answer in "Finder Help", nor in the Community discussions thus far. What I must do to troubleshoot the spinnign beach ball: My next step: I must troubleshoot my friend's iMac running Mac O.S 10.6.8 by setting up a new user, called "Test". This I can do easily. However, what I am unsure of is this: as this "new user", actually just me as a tester, I must be able to access the same email, Word files, Desktop, photos, etc. that I used to access. How, then? Copy all into a shared folder or what? There must be a less cumbersome way. I do NOT wish to delete anything. Of course, I have justmade a perfect backup of everything on my hard drive. Please advise re my next step: sharing the "User" little house files, with myself, as the new, possilbly temporary, user. Thank you so much, anyone and everyone!

You shouldn't do any of that for troubleshooting. The test user account should be pristine. If you copy stuff from the old account, then you also copy whatever is causing a problem.
Just use the Accounts/Users & Groups preferences to create a second user called, "test." Make this user an admin user. Then log out of the old account and log into the new one. That's it. You can still access and use applications in the Applications folder if you need to test third-party applications.
We could be more helpful if you explain just what you need to troubleshoot. If just the spinning beachball is your issue, then visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on resolving the SBOD problem.
If the computer is simply running slowly then read the following:
Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to:     OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
                                  The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
                                  The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;

                                  Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
    used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
    requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
    drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

CMD.EXE DIR command returns incorrect files for wildcard

So, I'm at a Windows 7 command prompt. The current folder has both old and new Excel files in it. That is, some have a file extension of ".xls", while others are ".xlsx". I enter the following command:
dir *.xls
This is returning all files in the folder.
Anybody with a knowldege of regular expression language would say that the ".xlsx" files should be excluded, since the "*" is to the left of the ".", and should only apply to the file name, not to the file extension.
If I wanted to return all Excel files, I should have to specify "*.xls*".
Am I missing something here? Is this not a bug in the Windows 7 cmd.exe? Seems like a pretty dangerous one, since it could lead to the unwanted deletion of files.
- Mark Z.

This is because 8.3 compatible filenames (aka short filenames) are created for your files. By default, creation of short names is enabled. Use dir /x to verify.

Converting files created using JVC GYHM 100U to file for iMovie/FC Express

I have a JVC GYHM 100U which creates files only for Final Cut Pro. Is there a way to convert the files to be used in FC Express or iMovie?

FCE does not support natively the HDV format, the one of my Canon HV30 for instance?
Correct. FCE converts HDV to AIC on ingestion. It does not works with HDV natively. FCP does.
That means that on import, FCE do some kind of conversions to the AIC format, right?
Right.
My impression was that the JVC camcorder we're talking about was able to write into the AIC codec
Don't know where you got that impression, but it is incorrect.
...and that that codex was the default FCP codec. Then what is the FCP (or FCS now) default codex or at least the codec that this camera support as the default FCS format.
There is no "default codec" in FCP. FCP works with many formats/codecs natively.

Create pdf forms from a xml file for follow up information

Forgive my amateurishness, I have a simple .xml that was created with excel with name, address, date of service, age, dob, account #, unit, and business name. I need a form to be pre-populated with the .xml data but have other fields (mainly Yes/No check boxes) that need to be populated by another user. This user would then finish filling out the form and return it to me via email. I have created the form in LC Designer ES2 and created it with Acrobat Pro X. However when I attempt to import data I can only see the first .xml record. So my question is, how do I create multiple .pdf forms for each .xml record? Do I need to use Java within LC Designer? Or use Adobe Pro? I am not afraid to attempt to code, (I have many excel programs that batch print to .pdf using vb).
Thank you in advance

I don't play with forms enough to give an answer. However, you might search the Forms sub-forum for a possible solution. You might also find better answers there, though many of the forms experts drop by here too.

How to create a projector that accepts a file that is dragged on its icon?

I would like to develop an application that allows it to receive as input any file that is dragged on the icon of the projector.
In practice: I would like to know the (path of) file dragged on it, so that then the application can work on it.
Do you know how to do?
Thank You.

Update:
It is possible to do it with

BUT Director can't produce a Projector that accepts the dragged file.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I have been trying to figure how everyone puts their image in there podcast. I have a video podcast and using GB3 to do the podcast. When I submit to iTunes it has a default icon for an image.

Thank you for your quick reply!!! My answer however will probably not help you, in that I am not using webElements. (I didn't know it existed until I found the video) As for the exact syntax, I tried multiple ways to place that on this question only to have the forum reject the message but will try again. In the formula I placed this (preceded by a single quote, a less than sign the word IMG, a space, the word SRC, an equals sign, and followed by a greater than sign and a single quote):
"http://www.winnebagoind.com/html/wit/witlogo.png"
What I got was exactly what you said, crystals interpretation of the greater than, less than, and space. (If I place it here it refuses to send it)

How to create Bluray compliant 5.1 AC3 file for Encore CS6?

I've made every version of a surround AC3 file I can think of - out of Premiere, Compressor, Vegas, BeSweet - and however I import it into a Bluray project in Encore CS6 it gets transcoded to stereo (though set to 'Don't Transcode'). What is going on?? I've read all round this and no workflow variation works. Yet the same AC3 used in an Encore DVD project is correctly encoded as a 5.1 disk. And Vegas will happily make a 5.1 Bluray with the same source source material. Help, please!
