Export to MP4 out of Flash

Hi,
The fact that this hasn't been implemented has somewhat shocked me but with all the MP4 usage out there (H.264 encoding) for iOS and web - with great compression capabilities, I'm surprised there isn't a native way to export directly to MP4 out of Flash. It really increases production time and increases hours when using the After Effects or exporting an MOV/AVI/FLV/FLA and using the adobe media encoder methods. Is there a way to streamline this so it will just export as it would any other video (Using the Adobe Media Encoder). I did see that the CC version is adding a feature that may do the trick if you can in fact export to the encoder and queue a series of MP4 conversions. That would be a huge help if that's the case, but is that how it will work? Please advise, since I still use Flash for a great deal of animation and batching multiple Flash files would save a ton of time (and lessen errors).
Thanks in advance for reading,
Peter

Hi Peter,
I was having the same trouble, and got to the point where I just decided to type in ".mp4" over ".mov" in the export video section in Adobe Flash CC. Lo and behold it worked! Media encoder automatically opened and took care of it!
Good luck!

IMovie mp4 problem - Video "flashes" pixels?

Hi!
After exporting, this mp4 file keeps "flashing pixels" time to time. Here is a sample of the problem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnpqjaaKdz0

That looks to me like bitrate starvation -- too low of a bitrate for something that vivid and detailed?
What is this shot with? What's your original footage bitrate?
When you export to Quicktime, did you choose H.264 and at best quality already?!?
iMovie 11 H.264 is good, but can be a bit lacking in terms of quality compared to some of the best H.264 encoders out there.
I personally don't use H.264 and prefer to export either uncompressed or DV stream and use the power of my Quad PC to encode to better quality H.264.

MP3 + Flash: exporting MP3's from/out of flash

Hello
I am wondering if anyone knows if you can or if it is
possible to output MP3's from flash.
For example, If I were to build a music maker in flash, one
that lets me put sound bytes along a timeline to create a song,
then later save the song and ultimately export the file out as an
MP3 file.
Is this possible to do?
Has anyone done it?
Is there a solution out there?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Chris

Sounds like you are trying to use a hammer to screw in a
screw.
You want a sound/music editing program for this. Garageband
would probably
fit the bill for you.

Export to mp4 audio out of sync

I have a .mov that I'm trying to export as mp4 for web streaming. Actually this is the 2nd I've done and the first went OK. But the 2nd one loses it's audio sync with the video. audio is slow and gets off by maybe 2minutes by the end of the 45 minutes. The .mov is fine but the sync problem is happening when I export to mp4
Here is what I've done:
I record a webinar w/screenrecord2 and first I tried quicktime pro export (Boy it took a long time!!) to mp4 w/default (H.264, 640x480) except slower frame rate and set for webstreaming. The audio sync was off.
I read something about hinting helping audio sync problems so I then tried export to a hinted .mov and then to mp4 and still not good audio sync.
Next I tried export the hinted .mov via Streamclip and it went much faster and better video quality than the export via quicktime pro but still the audio loses sync.
The .mov is about 2.5gig and 45 minutes long exported mp4's about 80meg
Any help is much appreciated!
Is there a way in quicktime pro that I can speed up the audio of the mp4 and get it back into sync??

Hi Robert, i just want to check you are actually going to be posting your material to a real streaming sever i.e quicktime streaming server, darwin server, helix server.
If not then you won't actually be streaming the file, i've been doing a lot of work on streaming servers recently and the first thing i found was that the term streaming is often misused. If you are only posting your file on to a web server for people to view then quicktime has something called quickstart which will allow you to watch the video as it downloads like youtube, this isn't streaming.
With regards to extensions i would be much more inclined to use .mov over .mp4, it will make life easier for your viewers because you can guarantee at some point real player will try and hijack the .mp4 extension for some of your viewers.
Cheers
PS: Can you post hwre the file originates from, it's possible the problem stems from further up the chain but only comes to light when the file is exported. I find editing in quicktime and then exporting can often be problematic.

How do I clean out the flash player cache?

Thanks for your helpful reply. If most of my website visitors are using Safari browser (( iPhone, iPad devices )) what type of flash should we use in the headers?
www.i-phony.com
I hope to use my previous flash designs.
Best regards
Since Apple designed iOS (per Steve Jobs' insistence) to be specifically incompatible with Flash, I wouldn't worry about what Flash content to use in headers for devices that can never, and will never, be able to see it.
I stopped using Flash for anything in my websites about six months ago, converting what I had to HTML5 (MP4) and any new content that would have previously been done in Flash is going the be the same.

Making an entire website out of Flash

Hi I'm new at Flash CS3 and I'm trying to make an entire
website out of Flash. This is the basic concept of what I am trying
to do
http://www.davidmurrayweddings.com/home.php.
This person's website is kind of like what I want to do with the
menu button and the words that just appear in the middle of the
picture. Now I believe once I make the first page the rest will be
easier.
I have the Flash CS3 for Dummies but it does not seem to help
as much unless I overlooking something. Sorry there was something
else I was curious on making and that is a side bar where
thumbnails of pictures are where when you bring the mouse over it
the full picture shows up in the middle. ANY help would be greatly
helpful thanks.

Help Exporting Embedded Video Files From Flash

I am new to Flash and this may sound, well dumb but here it goes. I have taken some video files from Final Cut Pro converted them to FLV's imported them and embedded them into flash to create some banners for the web. I need to know what settings I should use to get these out of Flash for the web.
Also I need to send them to someone to look at before publishing. What would be the best format to do that in and how to do it.
Also has anyone has any experience creating banners in or online ads in a Video format like FCP and embedding them into a flash file to export them in flash for we publishing. Sorry again for the dumb question, just new to Flash.

Is there a reason why you embedded the video in Flash rather than using the FLV player?
Starting with the video, since you have the source you can create any type of format you need from that which can be used for preview or the final version depending on where it's going to end up and what is required or preferred. Flash comes into play if the requirement is to have a SWF/FLV other than some other video format, or if you have other Flash content going on at the same time besides the video.
But using Flash for this, the most stratghtforward way is to use the FLV player included with Flash (or another 3rd party player) and point it to your FLV.

Export image sequence from AS flash file

Hello:
I am new to flash I am using flash professional 8 and
publishing at version 6 (although I can publish to any version for
this issue). I am using ActionScript 2.0 and am animating objects
using code instead of tweens. I need to export the animation out as
separate frames. I need the image sequence from the flash to use in
other applications and other uses. If anyone has any idea on how to
do this I'd appreciate knowing. I'd prefer to not have to buy more
software of course but if that is the case and it is the best way
let me know.
Thanks in advance.

The latest Flash CC 2014 release has an export to SVG option, which exports the current frame as SVG. There is no direct way to export the entire animation as SVG sequence though.

Export Report times out - how do I export all my customers?

We have about 35,000 customers in our BC database.
I'm trying to export them for use in a direct mailing campaign (and other reports for other reasons) but the export always times out.
The reports are very simple; ie.
Custom Report -> Add customer report
Select Customers (Contacts & Companies)
Select CRM ID, Customer Name, Default Address Type
Next
Generate report (no filters)
About 33,000 results are in the report.
I then select Export Report as CSV or Excel and it will sit there for up to an hour or more and do nothing.
Notes:
I keep the session live by having a login in another tab.
Have tried differenty browsers and internet connections.
I even filtered the results (based on create date) and same problem occurred with just 15,000.
How can I export this report and other simple reports I need?
Regards,
Troy.

After Sanjit took a look at this it turns out all I needed to do was to save the report before exporting the results. The export was much quicker and, now we have more cutomers in our database, it actually exports!
Thanks again Sanjit.

What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

Hi All,
We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
Thanks in advance,
- Shashi

Hello Shashi,
some comments:
1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

will not open. I'm then directed to a page of formats which are supposed to be supported on which is .mp4. Any tips?

Export multichannel mp4/h.264 with Adobe Premiere Pro CC

Dear community,
we currently test the Adobe Premiere Pro CC trial (German) on a Windows 7 Professional PC.
However, we are not succentful in exporting a multichannel mp4/H.264 clip.
We haven't found an answer on our issue so far, so I hope that this question was not answered several times before in this forum.
If we chosse the H.264 exporter, we cannot select a multichannel audio export (only mono, stereo, 5.1).
In contrary, if we select the Quicktime exporter, we are able to export our sequence with a 4 channel audio master with 4 mono tracks, but we can only export it with a DVCPro Codec in a mov container.
If we try to select a HD H.264 preset we get an error alert stating that the preset contains a not compatible video codec.
What are we doing wrong?
Thanks for every suggestion.
Thanks in advance
André

Thanks for your thoughts, Richard.
Your are right, we currentky use the Adobe Premiere Creative Cloud version.
We managed it to solve at least the error message. It was caused because Quicktime was not installed together with the Adobe Premiere Pro / AME setup on our computer.
After we installed Quicktime 7 manually, we can select a Quicktime/H.264 preset without any problems within the exporter settings.
However, the Quicktime/H.264 export dialog seems to only allow a mono or stereo audio export. No multichannel-audio export.
This possibility is only displayed in Richards case, if we select the Quicktime exporter and an Uncompressed Video or DV preset.
Our question to the Adobe developer guys is the reason behind this limition? Other video authoring prograns can export a mp4 with H.264 Codec with multichannel AAC without any problems.
How can we do this with Adobe Premiere Pro (not necessarily via Quicktime)?

Quicktime export, colors washed out

I think this question has been asked before but I just couldn't find a good explanation in the archives. Wondering if anyone knows why, when I export my movie out of FCP to h.264 and then playback in quicktime, the colors become much more muted and washed out. This has been happening for awhile now, and its been driving me nuts and now I have a project that is absolutely going to hurt because of it.
I want the bright vibrant colors that I see in my canvas in FCP -- what gives? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Yeah, sorry, this was actually a graphic created in Motion 3 then sent to FCP to sync with some audio and other sound effects. The entire workflow is HDV 1080p24, compressed to various sizes of h.264 and meant for web only. Because it is meant for the web, I have bypassed a calibrated monitor and am just doing all the work on my Apple Cinema displays.
Like I said, I can take the exported h.264 version from FCP, open it in quicktime and hold it up right next to my FCP canvas and the luma and chroma values are noticeable muted, less vibrant, and just not as much fun to look at.
I have played around with the general settings in Quicktime, specifically the "Enable Final Cut Studio color compatibility" option, but still no change. I have read other places about this being a gamma issue once the movie is played back in Quicktime, but I really don't know what that means.
All of my software is about as up to date as you can get.

MP4 Progressive through flash quit playing...HELP please

This has baffled me to know end. A few days ago my computer lost the ability to play any progressively downloaded .MP4 video through flash on the web. I have a whole site of videos that quit working for me. I can view videos encoded as .flv or .wmv on site like vimeo or youtube but if it is .mp4 extention the video just spins and never plays. I need to find a solution to this ASAP so if any one has any insight, I would be forever greatful! MP4s play fine locally on my machine or even through a direct link, just not through a progressive-dl flash player on the web.
I'm on a XP-64 machine with CS3 suites and quicktime installed.
Things I have tried.
-Restarting
-Uninstalling and reinstalling Flash
-Searching google for similar problems.

Could you take a look at the following FAQ to see if any of the workarounds help you? It also contains details on the information you'll need to provide to us so we can investigate further.

If so, see the screenshots on that page to see the Import function.
