How to embed swf files on Sandvox websites

Hi All,
Any one here familiar on working with SandVox websites from www.Karelia.com? I just designed a flash player for a new client, and now his having problems trying to embed it. The vidPlayer uses an xml file and plays the required video from the same location as the swf file.
Any help on this, really appreciated.
Kind Regards,

Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are out of luck if you want to play on-line (unless something like the iSwiffter app work with it), but again some of them have app versions in the store.

Embed .swf file or how to hide your .swf file on the web for protection

Hi, is it possible to hide your .swf file so that it can not be taken. Is there a way to protect it? if someone please post the chain of commands on how to do this.

SWF-Files in a PDF try to start a Website

Hi,
I use Acrobat 9 ext. and have some PDF's with SWF-animations.
Problem: If the animation finished, it trys to open a website and brakes with a eror-message.
There are no scripts on the SWF, so I gues a security-mistake on the Acrobat 9.
Can anybody show me the securitiy features for Acrobat?
Lot of thanks for your help
Cheers, Wolvo

Hi, what i figured out:
on a pc without internet connection shows up the following java-script line on the browser address line:
javascript:window.opener=self;%20window.closed();
No idea, whre this comes up - is that a cookie tracer or virus?
Maybe it helps with a sample file - press the kaboodle on site 4.
Greetings Wolvo

Embedding SWF file into an Indesign document and later export as PDF

Hi to everybody,
I am searching now since 3 days for good solution of my problem. First I wanna tell you that the problem is not just to convert a swf-file into a pdf. I did this many times with all animations, page flip and stuff.My situation is the following:
I have varios catalogues with more or less 12 pages each in an indesign format. Now I created an animated scroll down menu, which appears on an "index-page". On the menu I created buttons. One button for each catalogue. So the idea of the whole thing is to open a document and an index page appears where you have the animated menu and you choose the catalogue you wanna see. Until here it is quite easy. I created a swf file of each catalogue with my animations (as the special page turnover e.g.). So that I just need von Object in with I can load the different swf-files of these catalogues. I already did the process. I linked the buttons to the different swf files and so. So the problem is now when it comes to convert the whole thing into a PDF. Of course I convert it first to swf and then to PDF. After converting it to swf it works 100% fine, but in PDF not, suddenly the swf-files of the catalogues disappear.
So the summary is, that I don't know how to embed swf files into an indesign document, creat buttons and interactions next to swf file, then save it to another swf, and then to a pdf without losing the first swf files within the pdf.
Hope I made my self clear would be too nice if someone could help me or if someone may have a better idea of realizing the whole project.

Jeffrey,
Thank you for the answer. As you have written:
I will also add that the ID's play mode contol [plays once] [repeat play] does not always control the file once in Acrobat.
I presume you mean version of ID older than CS4 or version of Acrobat Reader older than 9.1
It that is the case I will strongly recommend my visitors to upgrade to this version.
I hope that would work.
Thanks again.

Handel swf files in PDF

I’m having trouble to scale my swf file in the pdf I want to place it in. There is no problem placing it and adjusting the file while not playing, but as soon as it’s started it goes back to it's original size. Is it possible to scale a swf file at all? The swf file is also constant in size when stared, even if I’m zooming in the pdf the swf files size is consistent and it won’t zoom in nor out. Is there a way I can make the swf file change with the surrounding pdf file? I need to fix the swf files proportions in relation to the pdf file it is placed in. I’m really great full for any answers.

It depends how the SWF file is decalring it's stage scaling mode. SWFs can zoom to fit whatever rectangle they're in, or play at a fixed size - but the decision is made within the SWF via ActionScript, not within the host application.

How to open a "printable" version of a pdf file which has embedded a swf file?

I've got a project that consist of a pdf file that has a swf inside, it's all managed by a .nav file, a navigator.
The thing is, since the Flash Player is not a part of the pdf file (I think it was a part before), and it has to be downloaded and installed separately, I need to have an option for the users so they can access a more compact and printable version of what the pdf shows, but this time, not using the swf but the alternative, printable, version.
I spent some time looking for this "printable version", but no luck so far, if anyone knows something about it, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.

I see, I didn't know the exact term of what it's called, I've read somewhere and some people refer to it as interactive statements, the project is made with Flash Builder and I use the asset placement plugin. I'm a long time as3 programmer, but I never used a swf file within a pdf.
So, you are telling me that there is no way to have a default fallback option to show, let say, only text when the flash player isn't available?, because, a client of mine told me that he saw once a video showing Adobe featuring a "printable version" of the same pdf when that condition happened. He didn't send me the link or anything, I guess I just need to believe him on that one.
Any help, documentation to read, or orientation would be appreciated.
Edit.: forgot to say, mobile is not an issue/option here, this app or portfolio would play only in desktop.

Is there a plug-in to view swf. files?

Is there a plug-in for mac QT that allows viewing swf. files? I am a teacher and I want to be able to embed swf. files into powerpoint, which means I need QT to be able to read swf. I can find full apps that will do it, but it has to be QT to work in powerpoint since it uses QT as its engine.

Kirkster, give the security concern a break, you' ve posted this repeatedly, In the old Windows forum. No media player puts you at such a risk as QuickTime and iTunes do. If Mac computers can't play the files it's a problem with Apple

Embedding swf files in AIR app for ios

Hi,
After going through a lot of articles already available, I found answers with varying views on the following questions:-
1) Can we embed swf files using the embed tag in air app for ios, with symbols exported ?
Something like [Embed(source="someSWF",symbol="exportedSymbol")]
and also something like [Embed(source="someSWF")].
From what I understand, one can't embed swf's with actionscript byte code in them. So exporting symbols actually creates class linkages which leads to creation of abc. But I'm unsure on this because some sources say otherwise.
2) Can we embed swf files using embed tag in air app for ios, without symbols exported ?
Something like [Embed(source="someSWF")]
and also something like [Embed(source="someSWF" mimeType = "application/octet-stream")]
I read somewhere else, that you can actually embed symbols separately by providing symbol tag in embed tag but not entire swf (which leads to uncompiled actionscript error) but not sure about this as this is contradictory to finding #1.
3) If #2 is possible, then do embedding two different swfs with same symbol names would cause a conflict and result in #3747 error ?
Please note I am not asking about the Loader class here but using the Embed keyword for embedding swfs.
Also do the results differ with AIRSDK 3.8 and 3.9 and using different swf-version in compiler flags ?
In our application we started getting error #3747 in class creation of one of the embedded swfs (like new EmbeddedClass()) when we changed from swf-version 17 to 21 using AIRSDK 3.8. So was this error not there earlier or it was there but swf-version was suppressing it ?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!

I am fairly sure that the answer to your questions is: “no”.
For embed to work the AIR app would have to be working in interpreter mode, and that can work for local testing, but can’t work for submitting apps. An easy change for you to do would be to use SWCs instead of Embed. Other than that you’re looking at Loader, but also a tricky command line build of the app.

How to export swf in an interactive pdf?

Hey there...I hope anyone can help me :-(
I'm creating an interactive PDF at the moment and almost everythings works.
But I have a problem with exporting the embedded swf to my pdf...
In the first picture you can see what my slideshow should look like. If you
click on the arrows the pictures switch – it works – but only in indesign.
If I export it to an interactive PDF I get a result that you can see in the
second picture. You first have to start the swf by clicking, it does not run
itself...
Can't I make running the swf by starting up the PDF?
Thanks for your support! :-)

Placing a SWF file into a PDF file is a bit of a hack. It's going to have some rough edges.
You should be able to use the Media panel to save a poster image so you won't see a blank space.
However, the first time you open the PDF, you WILL have to click on the SWF file to play it.
I created a SWF slide show, exported it as a selection, placed it back into InDesign and exported a PDF. You can see the result below. There's a poster image, but I still have "Click to activate" to start the slide show.

White blank before SWF file loads on website

Hello, I am now able to embed SWF files created in Keynote '08 for use as banner or header images on various client websites. I found the perfect code from : http://www.iwebunlimited.com . Now my issue is I am redoing some existing websites that currently have a flash/SWF banner that needs to be reworked as well. On their old website they have a swf banner that loads immediately when landing on the site, where as when i redo the site using iWeb and the new reworked swf banner from Keynote '08 I get a blank white box where the flash file is loading. Is there another part of the code I might be missing that will load the file immediately or am I going to be stuck with a white space in the middle of my custom colour backgrounds?
Here is the current code that I am using in a practice page:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase=" http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0, 0" width="500" height="400" align="middle"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.fullcirclemedia.ca/SWF/Localswfer.swf"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" width="500" height="400" align="middle"
src="http://www.fullcirclemedia.ca/SWF/Localswfer.swf" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed>
</object>
You can view its placement at: http://www.fullcirclemedia.ca/LocalsTest/Blank.html

That makes sense. The older version is only 1.4 and loops. I wonder why the swf files created in Keynote are larger files than the same dimension swf created in another program. I can't see how I can cut down on the file size of this in Keynote. I have another movie on another site that I have had for years but it was made on a PC with Coffeecup software. I will have to dig and find another Macable program that gives me the same kind of result in a much smaller file or just use my old PC and its Coffeecup I am familiar with to create these.
See the older flash movie at: www.alberniproject.org which is conciderably longer than the one I am asking about in this post. Thanks Toad.

Embed same SWF file multiple times in Flash file

I want to include the same SWF file multiple times in the same flash file. I have a plain box that is clear, that becomes visible when clicked. I want to create a grid of them (about 50+). If I copy the layers and actions, they interfere with each other so I want to embed multiple SWF files into one file and then save it to embed in an interactive PDF. If I save one square and embed it into the PDF multiple times, the file becomes too big to work. How can I embed interactive SWF files over and over into 1 SWF file? I don't have a ton of knowledge with Flash....

you edit your html file to embed multiple copies of your swf.
it's generally easier to control the layout if you use swfobject (but you can just copy the code published by flash pro) to embed the swf.

Is there any way to display a pdf inside of a swf file?

Are there any software that will convert Word documents or pdf into swf files that ca be displayed inside of a Flash movie. Currently, I am using FlashPaper but the software is not supported anymore by Adobe. I am creating eLearning courses and having a pdf open inside of a course without opening multiple makes for a better learning experience. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
