Embedded Flash 10 -- when?

When will Acrobat upgrade to a Flash 10 embedded player?
SWF files built with Flash Builder 4 Beta embedded in a PDF show up blank in Acrobat Reader 9.1.3.  Acrobat Reader 9.1.3 embeds a Flash 9 player.  The Flex 4 SDK requires Flash 10.
Thanks,

Hi Pavan, If you are having the same issue with Flex SWF, etc. please see my Post # 2. Starting your own thread is always best in the proper forum.

  • My embedded Flash video disappears when I relaunch MS Word

    I embedded a Flash video with a youtube URL into MS Word 2010 using the "more controls" button on the "developer" tab.  It worked perfect, exactly how I wanted it to, UNTIL . . . I saved and closed the document.  When I reopened the document, the embedded video was still there, but only as an invisible object.  I couldn't see it, let alone play it.
    I have replicated this in various editions of MS Word, on several computers, each time varying things like the location of the video (my hard disk instead of a URL), etc.  I also tried saving the document as "macro-enabled."  In every single case, the video works great when initially embedded, but once the file has been closed and then reopened, the video is still there but no longer visible, and therefore useless.
    Any ideas how I can make my embedded Flash video remain visible in my Word document, even after closing and reopening the document?
    Thank you!

    I suspect the best place for the question is over on the Microsoft Word forums, as you'll most like find a wider audience there that uses Word as HTML generation tool.

  • Why can't I view embedded flash videos on my MacBook Pro?

    I can view videos on Youtube and embedded videos on some  sites, but when I try to view embedded Flash videos on sites like CNN.com and NBA.com, I just get a black rectangle and nothing loads. I've tried this on all browsers. BTW, I also cannot open up tinted ads that come up in Google searches. I have the latest version of Flash, and I've deleted browsing data and settings and have checked "Allow sites to save info." I've disabled pop-up window blocker. I have no ad blocking software. I've installed the latest Flip4Mac plugin. I have even set up a new user account and tried these sites with that account to see if the problem goes away (it didn't).
    I have a 12 inch 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro with OS 10.8.3 installed (though the problem started when I still had Snow Leopard). I have all the latest browsers and , as I've said above, the latest Flash. I've tried both Java 7 and Java 6. I should also point out that I can access these sites without problem with my office Macbook Pro, which is a 15 inch Core 5, loaded with the same software I have on my problem 12 inch notebook.
    Any suggestions?

    You have JavaScript enabled in all the browsers, yes? Have you tried launch the browsers in Safe Mode?

    Not aware of a 12-inch Intel MBP. Anyway, could you possibly have an old version of flash player on your computer too. Look in the In the Internet Plug-ins folder to be sure you have only one flash player plugin. Path is HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin
    Also try searching your hard disk for flash.
    Some other things to try are in this thread.

  • Embedding Flash in HTML using Dreamweaver - stopped working

    Hi all, not really sure what's going on, but I've done this many times before and it's worked fine.
    I've previously embedding Flash videos I've created in Premiere and/or converted using other software.  I simply drag and drop the Flash file where I want it and then adjust layout using code/design etc and that's it, job done.  It's always played back fine.
    Now for some reason I've tried doing it again this morning and can't figure it out.  When I preview the file it doesn't even show the video, but instead displays all the icons for the controls at once in a grid where the video is meant to be.  I've tried in IE, Firefox and Chrome, updated drivers, windows, Adobe, Flash etc all to no avail.
    I've even tried doing it in a blank HTML page in case some of the template I might have been using was interfering for some strange reason; still no luck.  What's even stranger is that a site I created last year is also now not displaying Flash (FLV) content locally, but is working fine on the server.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    (CS5 Dw:V11 build 4993, Win7 64bit SP1)
    I've pasted the code from the blank HTML page.  It's probably something really simple that I've not noticed:

    Im' having a VERY similar problem with a few estra 'happy' moments. I have a blog (WP). On this simple and VERY basic blog (with almost NO plug ins) I have attempted to embed FLV videos with CS$ Dreamweaver code.
    (This code is different in CS$ than it was in earlier versions as it now calls to the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf as the player and uses Flashvars to pass the value of the FLV. PReviously, it was four simple lines of code that pointed directly to the SWF)
    Here was my process - I encoded the files with AE and Media Encoder to end up with Transparent FLV's. These, I then setup in Dreamweaver so I could copy the embed code. On my first attempt, it worked PERFECTLY. I was testing one particular flv, got the code and inserted it into the blog page with some special CSS to position it.
    The movie played perfectly.
    Then things got weird.
    I was excited I had a solution, so I went to put another video on another page. No luck. The second page was playing the video from the first page. As if I had copied the same code, but I hadn't. I copied code that was 'pointing' to the new file, but for whatever reason, the new file would not play.
    I did EVERYTHING. I deleted all the pages and strted fresh. I deleted the FLV's and reuploaded them. I created different folders and put each flv in it and created index.html files for each (assuming possibly there was a hardcoded element in the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf). I copied and pasted back and forth for nearly 6 hours.
    Nothing. Each time I would copy and paste code into a blog page, it would simply pull the original video.
    THEN....things got worse.
    I pulled one video off of the server, and now NONE work. I can't get ANY videos to play. Worse, I still have the 'express install' link showing.
    Ok, so here is what I am trying to figure out;
    Does the NEW DW CS4 code somehow have control over the file that is called? Further, HOW can I get more than one FLV to play across a whole blog site.
    Here is a link to one of the pages that HAS code but is calling NOTHING. And please know that I have left copies of the necessary files ALL over the server. So they are in the root, in the 'files' folder, in the talent folder and everywhere.
    Is there a conflict flash hits when there are multiple FLV's being called? Is there a way to do this? Please help....
    Thank you

  • Adobe Reader cannot play embedded Flash content

    I don't know why, the Flash format was originally created by Macromedia, and then Adobe acquired the company, but the Adobe Reader cannot display Flash content.
    My PDF file is here:
    http://genifer.googlecode.com/files/agi-book.pdf
    Scroll to page 37.
    The original SWF file is here:
    http://genifer.googlecode.com/files/unified-AND-OR.swf
    which *can* be played on my Chrome browser.
    But when I embedded the SWF file in the PDF, the result is unplayable.
    A clue is:  Adobe Reader asked me to download QuickTime to display media contents.  So I downloaded QuickTime.  But QuickTime nowadays has removed Flash support.  Why did Adobe Reader ask me to download QuickTime to display Flash, when Adobe owns the Flash format?
    I have also tried selecting other media players in the Reader's option box (eg, Windows Media, Windows built-in, Adobe Flash, etc) but none of them works.
    I have also tried using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.  Same result.
    It seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Adobe Reader most certainly CAN play embedded Flash content, but only if you embed it properly.
    You're seeing a Quicktime warning because you're embedding the SWF as "legacy media" content - this is no longer supported for authoring and is disabled by default for playback.You should use Rich Media Annotations instead (embedding using the multimedia/flash tool in Acrobat 9 or Acrobat X).

  • Embeded Flash and Internet Explorer

    When try and access a page I have created with internet
    explorer composed of html with an embed .swf there is a white box
    that one has to click to then access the normal functions of the
    .swf. Is there any code to make it so this extra click to access
    the embeded flash does not have to happen? It does not happen in
    firefox or safari.

    Oh god .. here we go again .. Obviously someone has been
    living under a rock
    or on a deserted island for a few months :)
    This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid
    infringing the
    (stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control
    that can interact
    with the user.
    If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything

  • HELP! Embedding Flash with Dreamweaver CS4

    Hello i'm have issues with CS4 embedding Flash FLV's.
    It won't show up when it's on the server but it's working
    locally.
    i've uploaded all the files in the scripts folder and the swf
    skin files.
    But it still won't work server-side.
    I did not have this issue with dreamweaver CS3 as i've found
    that Dreameaver CS4 seems to
    change how the code of how the .FLV is embedded
    any ideas??
    or is anyone else having this issue?
    thanks
    Jordan
    here's is my current test page link with a sample flv video:
    http://www.lambethdesktop.com/flashtest/index.html
    i've also attached the code of the html page it has been
    embedded in.

    This script appears to be missing (or uploaded to the wrong

  • Get URL from embedded Flash AS3 movie

    I have a thumbnail scroller app built with AS3 on my website
    homepage. I have the class files but would like to know of any
    quick workaround to make the embedded Flash movie clickable without
    reworking the AS3 files. What I would like to do is if you click on
    a thmbnail or anywhere in the movie, the "portfolio" page loads. I
    asume this would use javascript? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I notice that when I click on the thumbnails in the browser,
    a "0" appears on top of each thumb. When i test in Flash preview
    clicking on an image generates:
    Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL
    Not Found.

  • Embedded flash not behaving correctly

         I am having some problems with embedding flash into a PDF and I hope you can help. When I run the flash outside the PDF, all of the rollovers and cursor changes behave correctly. However, once I embed the flash into the pdf and launch it, when I rollover areas of interaction, the cursor doesn't behave like it should.
         Outside the PDF, when I rollover an area of interaction, the pointer changes to the hand. When it is embedded into a PDF, I hit the edge of the area of interaction and the cursor flashes to the hand and then back to the pointer.
         I know these aren't the correct terms but I am hoping that it is decipherable. I am far from a flash or PDF guru, but I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work. The flash presentation was created in adobe captivate 3.
         I have opened a case with Adobe support and I was on the phone with them for 2+ hours today with no resolution. I am hoping the collective knowledge of the forums and the internet can help! Thanks in advance!
    --jcbrig00

    I am also having a problem with this . It seems to be a bug because it is not only movie clips but buttons that don't show the hand cursor.
    My problem was with a simple flash test movie created in flash cs5 using actionscript 2
    If any one can solve this I would be really grateful

  • Embedded Flash videos play on 32 bit Win7, not on 64 bit Win7, IE9 32 bit

    Hello,
    I have two PCs.  One is running 32 bit Win7 SP1, the other 64 bit Win 7 SP1.  Both have IE9 32 bit and the latest version of Flash 32 bit, 10.3.183.7.  This page http://www.iorr.org/talk/read.php?1,999739 and others at iorr.org have embedded YouTube Flash videos.  On the 32 bit machine, they play fine on both Admin and Standard accounts.  On the 64 bit machine, the embedded videos are only visible on the Admin account.  Standard accounts show an empty box with a broken icon symbol where the video should be.  (Note:  not trying to use IE9 64 bit.)
    I've spent a couple hours uninstalling and reinstalling Flash trying to see the videos on a Standard account on the 64 bit PC.  Nothing works.  Any suggestions?  Note that normal Flash videos work fine on the 64 bit PC Standard accounts.  Only embedded videos fail.
    During this exercise, I noticed that the 32 bit PC has the Flash Player Control Panel under Control Panel->System and Security.  The 64 bit PC does not have it there, but I can manually bring it up from a CPL file in the SysWOW64 folder.  Not sure if that's part of the problem or a different problem.
    Thanks for your time.

    I spent hours and hours on the same problem. My computer has a slightly different configuration. I am using Win7 32 bit, but experienced the same problems. Embedded Flash is working under Admin account, but not under other accounts. Many de-installs and re-installs, but nothing seemed to help. Until I found this internet post:
    http://superuser.com/questions/244316/embedded-video-is-not-shown-in-internet-explorer-9-r c-or-beta
    The solution offered in that post solved all my problems. Hurray!!!
    Solution:
    * Open REGEDIT
    * Find the following key:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\application/x-shockwave-flash
    * Delete the key
    * Re-install flash
    * Problem solved (in my case)
    In the replies of the above mentioned link another solution was given (in stead of deleting the key)
    * Right click the above mentioned key
    * Change the access rights and allow all users read access to the key (did not check this myself)
    In order to keep the solution safe in this thread, please find a copy of the info in the link above here:
    In IE 9 RC or in beta, the embedded video is not shown in the web page. I verified the security settings in "internet options". Did not find any issue. Please find the screen shot below. I am able to view the flash videos in Youtube. But, for some reason, in some sites the embedded video is not shown.
    I don't have this issue with Firefox.
    UPDATE:
    I am able to see view the embedded video in Admin account. But not able to view it in Standard account.
    UPDATE:
    As it works as administrator, use Process Monitor and filter the Status on ACCESS DENIED.
    This allows you to troubleshoot what key the iexplore.exe process can't access.
    @TomWij, Thanks for the suggestions. The Process Monitor hint helped to nail down the issue. When run with standard privileges, it is getting "ACCESS DENIED" for reading the key
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\application/x-shockwave-flash. 
    When I elevated the privilege to Admin account, it did not have any issue. Then I uninstalled flash, deleted the registry key and then installed flash again. Now, I am able to view the embedded video in standard account.

  • Can HTML affect embeded FLASH

    I am trying to find out if there is any way to have the HTML
    send informaion to the embedded FLASH file. I need to change 2
    peices of information on the FLASH file when it loads on the page
    (based on the page it comes up on.) Is there a way to have the HTML
    send a message to FLASH that says use "pic_2.jpg" or a way for
    Flash to look into the HTML to find its directive. Better yet, is
    there a way to let flash know what file it is within, and search
    the XML file based on the parameter of location? Please
    help.

    Hi adjourney,
    External images should work in the same way (via flashvars).
    You can do
    this in a two step process as you suggested, or directly via
    the
    embedding variables. I'll assume you want the simpler of the
    two so you
    would do something like this:
    The HTML embedding code would look like this:
    <object
    classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
    codebase="
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0"
    width="354" height="63" id="myFlashThing" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="flashvars" value="imageFile=myImage.jpg"
    />
    <param name="movie" value="flashFile.swf" /><param
    name="quality"
    value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#cccccc"
    /> <embed
    src="flashFile.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#cccccc"
    width="354"
    height="63" name="forumLogo" align="middle"
    allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false"
    flashvars="imageFile=myImage.jpg"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    pluginspage="
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    />
    Notice that you need to include the file name two...once as a
    "param"
    and then again in the "embed" tag. This is done to compensate
    for
    differences between FireFox/Mozilla browsers and
    InternetExplorer-style
    browsers.
    In Flash, getting the image file name couldn't be easier. In
    ActionScript 2.0, this is simply available as:
    _level0.imageFile
    In ActionScript 3.0, this is available as:
    this.loaderInfo.parameters.imageFile from the class that's
    associated
    with the main movie clip (the Document class).
    Now you simply take this value and use a loadMovie or Loader
    instance to
    get your image.
    If you wanted to specify an XML file and then some identified
    within it,
    the flashvar would look something like this:
    xmlFile=data.xml&offset=5
    And this would be received as two separate values in Flash:
    _level0.xmlFile and _level0.offset (and the associated ones
    for AS 3).
    Of course this is a bit of overkill...if you're specifying a
    file and
    then hardcoding a link within that file...you might as well
    specify the
    file right off the top. But I guess that's up to you.
    Good luck,

  • Embedded Flash in PHP - Need help!

    Hello everyone!
    We're having problems embedding Flash-files into our .php-files, so I thought the best place to ask for help would be the official Flash-forums :-) First of all, I'll let you know what exactly we're doing....
    We have a few flash-files which you should only be allowed to view once you're logged in and authenticated to our "portal". You can only view those files over some sort of JavaScript-Popup-Flashplayer thing (personally not too much into JS). The JS-Player requires the flash-files to be available over an exisiting URL (such as http://page.domain/flash/file.swf) - And this is where the whole problem begins...
    After hours of research and conversing with my collegues and the project-management, we decided to use the following technique to still keep those URLs for the JS-Player while preventing the user from simply accessing our "top secret flash movies" by typing in the URL in their browser...
    We move the Flash-folder to a location outside of our document root -> Flash-files can't be randomly accessed or downloaded via the URL.
    We use an Apache-plugin called "mod_rewrite" to rewrite/redirect URLs that look similar to http://page.domain/flash/*.swf to a PHP-file -> We can work with REQUEST_URI to see which flash-file the user wanted to view. Now, inside that PHP file we check wether the user is authenticated or not and either embed the flash-file into the PHP-file or redirect him to an error-page. In theory, the user could still view the flash-file over the URL (without even noticing PHP, since the URL stays http://page.domain/flash/file.swf, hence a perfect fake, no? ;-) ) and everything actually works exactly the way we wanted..........IN FIREFOX!
    Now we went live with our application and we had to realise that one of the only things we haven't tested in other browsers (this being one of them) don't work the way we want and instead of viewing/playing the film, we get to see a white window in the JS-Player, while it's trying to download a file called "filename_swf" (underscore instead of dot?) when you access the movie over the URL (http://page.domain/flash/file.swf).
    How we embed Flash into PHP:
    Headers + outputting the flash-files content....
    header('Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flash');
    header('Expires: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT, -1');
    header('Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate');
    header('Pragma: no-cache');
    echo file_get_contents($request);
    As I said, this works just fine in Firefox, however we're sure most of our users will be using IE, in which it doesn't work at all. I personally believe we're missing some sort of header or we have to set a different header depending on the browser...so I thought the best place to ask about Flash Headers would be the actual flash forums. Maybe I'm even totally wrong and missing out something crucial and someone can point me in the right direction...
    Thanks!

  • Controlling embedded Flash player

    Hi All,
    I am working on a project whereby the embedded Flash player
    (9) needs to be controlled from code.
    The following must be accomplished:
    There is a list of .swf files stored in a XML file on the web
    server. (These .swf files are converted from .mpg movie files.)
    The Flash player needs to load the first .swf file.
    When it finishes playing the first file it must load the next
    one and start playing it automatically.
    This process needs to be repeated until the last .swf file is
    played.
    Whilst playing the .swf file corresponding text must be shown
    in a textbox on the same web-page.
    When the player finishes playing the last file it must
    restart at the first file for the second time
    and repeat the whole process the second time but now when it
    reaches a certain file for the second time
    the player must stop and ask the user a question. The user
    will type in his/her answer.
    When the answer is correct the Flash player will continue to
    play the next file else show the correct answer, mark the question
    as wrongly answered and then continue on to the next .swf file.
    After the Flash player finishes playing the last file it must
    check if any question was wrongly answered.
    If so then that .swf file will be shown again and the
    question & answer game will be repeated.
    When all questions have been answered correctly the user will
    be redirect back to the calling page.
    The current development environment for the project is C#.NET
    2.0
    Any help in accomplishing this is very much appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Arjan

    Hello ak_kanan, 
    Welcome to the forums. 
    Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off.  Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue. 
    Let us know how you make out.

  • Two Questions Re: Embedding Flash and Tables Shortcut

    .
    Two Questions Re: Embedding Flash and Tables Shortcut
    1) I work on a Mac and use Dreamweaver 8. Often I like to
    embed Flash objects into a page and I do this by using
    Dreamweaver's INSERT > MEDIA > FLASH. However, the SWF file
    doesn't show up on the published web page and I’ve never had
    this issue using previous versions, so I’m not sure what to
    do? Here's what Dreamweaver generates when I use their INSERT
    feature:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','wid th','550','height','180','src','flash/BANNER.HOME','quality','high','pluginspage','http:// www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','flash/BANNER.HOME'
    ); //end AC code
    </script><noscript><object
    classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"
    width="550" height="180">
    <param name="movie" value="flash/BANNER.HOME.swf">
    <param name="quality" value="high">
    <embed src="flash/BANNER.HOME.swf" quality="high"
    pluginspage="
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="550"
    height="180"></embed>
    It seems a bit weird that the SWF file is not showing
    considering Flash & Dreamweaver are the most compatible apps,
    no? I’m assuming if Dreamweaver is generating this code it
    should work, no?
    2) I’m getting an error when trying to use the Tables
    short cut COMMAND+ OPTION+T that reads...
    "While executing objectTag, the following JavaScript error(s)
    occurred:
    At line 26 of file “Macintosh
    HD:Applications:Macromedia Dreamweaver 8:
    Configuration:Objects:Common:Table.htm”:
    TypeError: cmdDOM.parentWindo.createTableStr is not a
    function"
    What’s strange is it was working fine last week and for
    the life of me I don’t know what could of happened to make
    this shortcut get corrupted?
    I’ve reinstalled the app multiple times and still I get
    the same error :-(
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance!

    It works. Most likely you have not uploaded the Scripts
    folder referenced
    in the head of the page.

  • Embedded Flash movie locks up Browser

    It doesn't seem to matter which of the top three
    browsers I use, but most often when you go to
    a website page that automatically (or not?)
    launches an embedded Flash movie, a little
    window pops up inside that embedded movie
    asking me to click Allow or Deny.
    But NIETHER is clickable, the browser is locked,
    nothing can be clicked and ALL other tabs are locked
    and cannot be clicked either.
    I have to hit CTRL+ALT+DELTE to kills the
    browser in Task Manager. .A HUGE annoyance,
    that comes unexpectedly because you don't know
    when an embedded movie will be on the next page
    you click.
    How do I stop that Allow/Deny message popping up??

  • Dailymotion embedded flash movie not working anymore

    I cannot seem to get Dailymotion embedded flash movies working. The movie is just a black screen. The same embedded movie on the same webpage works in windows. (Non-embedded) movies on the official Dailymotion site still works though.
    This happened only recently. I thought maybe it was a flash 10 issue, but after rolling back to flashplugin 9, the problem still remains.
    Does anyone has the same problem?

    Usually when a browser has an issue playing a Flash file it is due to the embedding code that is used in the html page.  Can you compare your code to another page's code to see what differences there are?  You should let Flash generate the embedding code rather than using some other software to do it if that is what you did.  Just have Flash publkish and html page, test that page in your various browsers, and if it works, copy/paste that code in place of what you have now.
