Embedded Looping Video and stop();

HI
I have embedded a looped video into a flash slideshow where i
use a next and previous button to navigate from one slide to the
next.
My question is can you insert a stop(); command in the frame
where the looping video is placed so i can hold the slideshow on
that slide (until i hit the next button) without stopping the
video?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

create a new fla with something on its timeline so you can see if it loops and attach:
stop();
to its last frame. does it loop? if yes, zip your fla and attach it.

Diskspace from 5GB to 900MB after Encoding Video and stopping it

I started to make a DVD and it started encoding but i didn't have time and stopped it.. I noticed my disspace went from 5GB to 900MB..
How can i bing it back.. Did iDVD create some file somewhere in my Computer..?
where is it so that i can delete it?

Have you emptied your trash? Do that if you haven't already.
With only 900MB free on your hard drive you are getting dangerously close to a crash. Before working with it any more, I would either delete some unwanted stuff off the hard drive or drag some files over to your external drive to free up more space while you are working this out.

Adding volume switch to Flash 8 video and stopping it play before it plays

Can anyone help me on how to add a volume bar that works on
Flash 8 video?
I have this script on the video:
myVideo.seekBar=mySeek;
myVideo.playPauseButton=myPlay;
myVideo.volumeBar = myVolum;
myVideo.stopButton = myStop;
I want to add a volume switch to my video.
Does anyone know what I need to get a volume switch working?
I´ve added a volume bar and tried to get it working but it
does'nt.
I also want my Flash video not to start but you have to click
the button 1st to get it to play. Anyone know?

Try this, worked for me:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/custom_flvcomp_03.html
Also, if you want to initiate the video to start with a play
button, have a fake player(graphic) and a stop action. On the next
frame have your video component set to play automatically in the
parameters, and have the play button you have made to goto the
frame with that component..

EMBEDED SWF VIDEO CANT STOP AUDIO

Ok. So I am using a flash template that I have altered quite
a lot. It has video thumbnails with a preloader at the beginning.
The preloader at the beginning was slow though so I wanted to put
my general demo reel so it would play while it was loading but stop
when the site was loaded (that way people could have something to
look at). I have it so it hides ok. However, it continues to play
the rest of the videos audio. I need this to stop, but I have tried
just about everything. I know it is probably something stupid I am
doing, but if someone could give me a hand I would appreciate it. I
am half bald at the moment!
My Website
Here is the Action Script (3.0) I have for the site (without
any attempts to shut off the audio since I can't seem to do it
right anyways). Anyways the video is embedded in cover_mc.

Try this SoundMixer.stopAll(); on load complete.

Can someone help? Adding a playbar to embedded mp4 video and publishing to html 5

Hi everyone, I am having a hard time finding a solution. I am sure someone MUST have gone through this same challenge.
We have some lessons we want to convert to html 5. These lessons have embedded swfs, which we converted to mp4's. The problem now is that the embedded mp4s do not display with a playbar INSIDE of Captivate when we publish to HTML 5. The videos needs a playbar for users to control what they are seeing on the screen. Any ideas on how I can have the mp4s have a playbar in Captivate?
Thanks

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
This is a known issue with Adobe Captivate 6 and already passed to concerned team.

QT video export with Embedded QT video

I had a whole series of problems in exporting my slide show to QT after I embedded a QT movie. Transitions got messed up. Some bullets stopped working and I have been trying to debug for 3 hours. I saw a number of closed but unresolved posts on this so I wanted to post my findings here.
What I finally figured out was that the problem was that I didn't properly set the "start video" and "stop video" in the Build in and Build out functions. Once I did that all worked. I have a sound track through out and sound on the embedded QT and it all works fine.
I hope this is helpful to someone. Now I am going to take some aspirin and go to bed.

No, this would have required Apple to build a Flash video encoder engine into Keynote's export module. You'd think if it was already a flash movie, it would work, but it doesn't, so assume they just didn't bother building in support for embedding flash movies into a flash export.

Cannot see embedded Youtube videos; I get a black screen

So, embedded Youtube videos suddenly stopped working. I can still watch videos on the Youtube website just fine. Making an embedded video fullscreen also allows me to see it. I have seen an answer on another thread asking to try Safe Mode. Interestingly, disabling every add-on and plugin (besides Flash and Shockwave) does not fix the issue, but using Safe Mode, which theoretically does the same thing, fixes it :S
The embeds are black screen, and when I hover the mouse over them I see the Refresh and HD buttons, but not the Youtube icon on the lower right. Clicking the lower right area still brings me to the Youtube website, so the button still works, just isn't visible. Reinstalling Waterfox and using a new profile do not fix the issue.
I can't test the issue on Firefox because it has a long-standing problem of the Flash Player crashing constantly every second, which rendered it unusable and is the reason I switched to Waterfox in the first place (in which Flash does not crash).
The troubleshoot information with all Waterfox add-ons disabled (which again, doesn't fix the issue, despite Safe Mode fixing it) can be seen by navigating to the "More system details" on the menu to the right.
Thanks!

I had disabled hardware accel in Waterfox and it didn't fix the embeds, but doing so in Firefox fixed them for Waterfox! Odd. It didn't fix the constant Flash Player crashing, though. Thanks for solving the embeds!

Sending streaming recorded FLV to end and stop

I'm having a surprisingly hard time doing this. I have a
recorded FLV which multiple users are simultaneously pushed into
starting via a NetStream, streamed off of FMS. What I would like to
do is allow the presenter to at any time push everyone, no matter
where they currently are in the video, to the very end of the
video, and stop the play, and have the last frame/keyframe of the
video stay up on their screen. How would this be done?
Thanks.

Abeall,
You would need to have the presenter call a function on each
client connected to put the subscribed netstream at the duration
point of the stream.
For example, you could use the NetSetream.send method to send
a function call to all subscribers like this:
// This is on all client NetStreams that are subscribed
// __ns is the NetSteam that you play
__ns["owner"] = this;
__ns.receiveMessage = function(){
this.owner.__ns.seek(__ns.duration);
this.owner.videoPlayer.stop();
// Presenter function to set all clients video player to end
of stream
// __ns is the NetStream that you publish
private function onSetStreamToEnd():Void
__ns.call("receiveMessage", null);
This will only work for non-live streams.

Embedded Flash video in Firefox plays for 3 seconds and stops

I looked at the forums for a solution but it didn't solve my problem. I'm running OS 10.5.6, Firefox 3.6.13, and Flash 10.1.102.64. I recently had my MacMini's memory upgraded to 2GB and when I got it back home, the problem arose.
Per this forum, I tried uninstalling Flash, restarting, reinstalling Flash, repairing disk permissions, restarting again, and trying to play the video. Same problem with any site like LiveLeak, FunnyorDie, or Break.com. YouTube and Vimeo don't seem to have the same problem. I tried going into Firefox's "Tools" menu, disabling the Shockwave Flash plugin, reenabling it, and reloading the video. No luck.
Is there anyone who can tell me why these videos suddenly stopped playing after I had my RAM upgraded? Help!
(And thanks)

I had drop out also. I could successfuly resolve my problem with the hints at this page:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108065-en
I disabled the option "interference robustness" everywhere I could found.
And additionally, I reconfigured the express station as a client instead as a remote WDS, because I stream from an iMac to an extreme station an finaly to an express station where my hifi components are connected to. No drop outs anymore for me.
Hoping this will help you, too.
regards and much luck

IPhone: Using embedded QT movies that either Loop or Loop Back and Forth

Hi to everyone,
I'm working on a very simple iPhone app:
it has several buttons that launch different QuickTime movies embedded in the application, that will either Loop or Loop Back and Forth.
The desired looping behaviour is already set within QuickTime itself (those settings are available in QuickTime's View menu).
So far it doesn't seem to work, as the iPhone's SDK doesn't seem to recognize these QuickTime settings of Loop or Loop Back and Forth.
I've been trying to find advanced documentation on the matter, with no luck.
Does anyone knows if it's possible to create an iPhone application that has embedded QuickTime movies that either Loop or Loop Back and Forth?
If it is possible to do so, can you please post some code (or links) explaining how to proceed?
If the feature is not currently supported, does anyone knows if it will eventually be supported by Apple (maybe in a future SDK revision)?
While I don't know the entire context the SDK engineering team has to contend with, it seems to me it should be rather simple for Apple's iPhone SDK to simply accept the settings already put in place inside a QuickTime movie.
Many thanks in advance for any feedback on this!

Well, my programmers have come back to me and the news is not good.
The QTMovieLoopsAttribute is not supported in the SDK's QT Kit.
I'll now call it SDK's *QuickTime Kit Lite*, if you don't mind.
*QuickTime Kit Lite*, the key audio/video toolbox available for development of applications on the iPhone through the SDK, provides a single option:
a Play / Stop button.
The only other thing available (I think) is the option to hide the play/stop controller. That's it.
Apparently, there are several unofficial, private frameworks that give access to lower-level QuickTime functions and that may provide a way to actually loop videos, but chances are that an app using these unofficial frameworks would get rejected by Apple upon submission for the store.
I'm still waiting for more info and the final word from my programmers, but from the looks of it, this is going to be a show-stopper shortcoming of QT Kit Lite, as far as my project is concerned.
I'm probably going to have to fold my project and wait (hope) for an eventual upgrade to the SDK's QT Kit.
By the way, does anyone knows if there is a way to communicate with Apple and request new features for inclusion in future revisions of the SDK?
Upgrading the QuickTime Kit librairies to include the video Loop and Loop Back and Forth Attributes would be my first (and only) request.
many thanks to all!

Dreamweaver CS6: Embedding Youtube Video causes DW to stop responding

HI,
I'm trying to build a simple site that displays an embedded youtube video on the main page. The video is placed in a div tag that is placed in a specific spot on the page background to make it appear as if it's playing on an old PC that's part of the image. I paste the code into the div tag in the code view and it appears as a grey box in design view. Everything seems fine up to there, however when I click live view DW CS6 stops responding and the design view window goes white. I've tried pasting the video embed code into my other page, and into a blank html document to see if it was a problem with the rest of the code but the same thing happens on any of the pages. If I save the page and preview in Chrome or Firefox the page displays the windows loading cursor for a few minutes and then returns a youtube error 6 (ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND).
I spent a few hours researching and found nothing via Google searches, Adobe help or Lynda.com tutorials. I'm new to web design and CSS and got as far as I did through Lynda.com lessons. Which is to say I have an index page and a seperate game guide page that links back and forth displaying images and text exactly as I'd like. Everything else works well enough only the video embedding is giving me trouble which is frustrating because according to everything I've read it's supposed to be one of the simplest processes.
I'm really at a loss as to how to fix this issue and would appreciate any help the Adobe community can give me.
Thanks in advance.

Good to know,
I fixed the problem but I'm not exactly sure why this worked. I went to a different site that uses Youtube hosted videos and tried their embed code which appeared the same to my untrained eye. But to my surprise this other video worked perfectly, so I just put the url for my video in and it worked. I'm not sure why, as far as I can tell both embed codes are the same. Both use <iframe> tags. But it works now, suffice to say I've gained some respect for the people who do this stuff day to day.

How to start and stop video acquisition in a state machine

hello,
I'm a neuroscience student and here's what I'm trying to do: 1) trigger a GigE camera (200fps), 2) start video acquisition, 3) trigger a light that will stay on for x miliseconds, 4) trigger a valve that will blow an air puff, 5) stop the tone and the valve simultaneously and 5) stop the video acquisition 1second after 4). For that, my VI is a state machine, with a state for each trigger (ex, 1 state for trigger camera, 1 state for trigger light, ect) plus a state to "stop" and a state "time to wait". Everything was working except the video acquisition - the program would trigger the camera but only acquire one frame, because it wasn't running in a while loop and this is my first question: for a video acquisition is it always necessary to have a while loop?
I assumed the answer was yes, so I built a "consumer" loop for the camera. Putting a queue in the state "trigger camera" in the producer loop, I was then able to start the video acquisition but now the problem is to stop it in the right time. I have another queue in the "stop" state in the producer loop, but it isn't able to start the "stop" state in the consumer loop, I think that may be because the consumer loop gets "stuck" in the while loop.
I hope you can help me, the VI is attached. Thanks!
Solved!

Hi Gak,
Thanks for the suggestions. I still didn't got it to work though. I moved the stop command to inside the while loop like you said but it didn't work. The problem seems to be in the communication between the producer/consumer loops. When I run the VI in highlight, the queue message "trigger camera" leaves the producer and arrives at the consumer loop in the appropriate time, starting the "trigger camera" state of the case structure. However, the message "stop" doesn't seem to be sent by the producer loop, so the consumer doesn't receive a signal to start the "stop" state of the case structure. Can you think of anything I should change in the producer loop so that the second state (stop) is added to the queue?
About the functional global, I read about it, it seems that either that or a local variable could work, but I don't quite know how to implement it in my state machine, since the stop of the first while loop isn't activated in the "stop" state but in the "shutdown" state. It works more or less like this: after 10 loops of triggering and stopping the camera, light and valve (so after acquiring 10 movies), it goes for shutdown. Can you show me what you had in mind with the functional variable?

Can Video widgets start and stop when entering and exiting the browser viewport?

I like to use multiple autoplaying/looping video clips on a single page but I need to figure out how to make the videos start only when they enter the viewport on a browser and stop after they exit the viewport. Does anyone know a way to do this?

I do not know if this can have an affect on it but the videos are being downloaded through multiple computers to a private server and being accessed through the mac. Please let me know what you think.

Can't get flash video to stop looping even when i use stop(); in last frame

I have only just started using Flash so im sure im doing this wrong but in tutorials i have watched to stop the video looping you put stop(); in the last frame. I have done that but the video still loops... Anyone know where i am going wrong?

If the question is related to Adobe Presenter, I would recommend associating the SWF with the presentation play bar. This will allow the player to control the playback of the SWF and can move on to the next slide when the amount of silence (ideally equal to the duration of the SWF) has passed.
If this is a question related to Flash, I'll move it to the correct forum.

Embedded Youtube videos stopped working...

hi all
i've got a problem with a Flash website that has been driving me crazy.
i have a Flash website that was built for us in late 2009, it uses ActionScript 2 and i have been maintaining it in CS3 on a Mac.
the site is structured as a heirarchy of swf files, and loads XML files to specify text content, image locations, and Youtube videos.
all this has worked fine until sometime in the past month or two. the problem now is that the embedded Youtube videos no longer load, although nothing has changed in the code. unfortunately i don't know exactly when the videos stopped loading.
in the Activity Window of Safari i can see the URLs for the Youtube crossdomain file (http://i1.ytimg.com/crossdomain.xml), Youtube still for the video, and the Youtube player (http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/cps-vfl2P81QA.swf). however neither the still frame nor the player skin load.
if i run the site directly from my hard drive (with my Flash Player security preferences set to allow the swf to access the internet), the videos do load and play, so i am guessing that it is some kind of security domain issue.
if i run the site in Flash CS3 in debug mode, when i navigate to a video page, although the video loads and plays, i get lots of these warnings (i've edited the path and file name):
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
SecurityDomain 'http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/cps-vfl2P81QA.swf' tried to access incompatible context 'file:///pathname/site.swf'
i think the solution is probably fairly simple, however i don't know enough about ActionScript to figure it out...
any help would be much appreciated!

i should add that the same thing happens on three different servers, on Safari or Firefox, and on Windows or Macs, so it seems pretty likely that it is a change in either Youtube embedding or Flash Player that has broken the embedding...
it's been doing my nut in that i can't find any reports of similar problems on the interwebs...
