Exporting Captivate to server then playing

Once the SWF file is uploaded to the server, I go to play
from my website, and my 25 slide presentation takes 1 minute to
load, before it plays in my browser. There is very little graphic
action on my presentation some music narration, photos and some pop
ups. My server is Net firms. Is there something I can do to the
captivate SWF to give it a streaming effect, or have it play, right
away.

Hi Hank Junior
How exactly are you opening your file? When you published,
did you only create a .SWF or did you also export the HTML page? If
you didn't export an HTML page, perhaps you should try this, then
place both the .SWF and .HTM files on the server. Then point at the
.HTM page in order to display the file.
Also, are you using a preloader? (Click Movie >
Preferences... > Start and End tab > Loading screen check
box) If you use a preloader, typically it loads and counts up to
60% before the movie commences. Otherwise, the movie has to
completely download to the browser before play commences. Not only
that, but you NEED to use the .HTM page to make the preloader work
correctly. At least if the browser is IE that is. I've seen other
reports here that seem to indicate that the preloader may work
without the associated .HTM if the browser is perhaps Firefox.
Hopefully this helps... Rick :)

  • Settings to export a Quicktime video to play smoothly on an iBook G3

    Hi, now I that I have an A/V cable for my iBook, I can hook it up to my TV to watch videos, etc. The problem is, a lot of videos do not play smoothly because the processor is only 500 Mhz G3.
    I have tried to "re-enocde" the videos at a smaller size, etc thinking that they might play better, but haven't been able to find a set of settings that works.
    For example, right now I want to re-encode the Apple Keynote from the other day so I can watch it on TV. I tried doing this with the last Apple keynote and was never able to keep the picture smooth and the audio in sync. It was a disaster no matter what I tried, and I ended up just watching it on another computer - although i'd rather watch it on my TV from the couch!
    I do have Quicktime PRO, so if anyone could give me some suggestions in re-compressing this video, that would be great!
    Thanks!
    -Scott

    Tilting at windmills if I ever saw it.
    You could download the iTunes version (a little over one gigabyte) to have a file to work with and use QuickTime Pro to export.
    You would then switch to the MPEG-4 Video codec rather than use the H.264 version that is nearly impossible play without issues on a G3.
    Cut the frame rate in half (30 down to 15) and do the same with the data rate (not sure of those values).
    Size the file at 640X480 (not sure of the actual dimensions so check the aspect) and leave the audio track the same. Wait (probably a very long time) for the export to complete.
    You could test a few one minute "cuts" from the source to check your settings so you really don't waste a lot of time.

  • I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's

    I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's. When I export a qt from Premiere with audio it will not play on a pc only a mac. After extensive research I have narrowed down the problem to this: if you use the inspector in quicktime it looks like this
    DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
    16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
    I have to run it thru AE to make it look like this....then it plays
    DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
    16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
    SOOOO the problem is the Little/Big Endian. I googled that and it looks like a file/bit structure....anyone know how/why to change it in Premiere? Because everytime I make a movie in Prem I have to drag the sequence into AE and render it there so the sounds works.....
    thanks

    Two questions:
    1. What CODEC are you choosing when exporting on the Mac?
    2. Do you have any Blackmagic hardware/software installed?

  • How can I copy picture on a CD and then play them on the blue ray player on my TV?

    How can I copy pictures from iphoto on a CD then play it on my blueray player on the TV?

    You are attempting to do this in a very difficult manner. Why not simply get an AppleTV ($75 refurbished from Apple) and you can share all your iPhoto content on your TV. That would be much easier than exporting to a CD/DVD, loading it into a player and then playing from a DVD. Apple tells about setting up Home Sharing in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4352.

  • How can I download FLV completely and only then play video on Flash?

    What is a proper way to download video first and then play it in Flash? NetStream seems to allow me only to stream video - I can't find a way to download file completely first. Is there some other file for this?
    It looks like I can download the file using URLLoader, then do NetStream.play(null) and then append bytes from URLLoader using NetStream.appendBytes(...), but I get: "SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///Users/Paulius/Build.swf cannot access unknown URL. No policy files granted access." Is there a workaround?

    No, I don't think that's the issue. I have no problems downloading the video using URLLoader, which does the crossdomain check. Problem is when I do this:
    stream = new NetStream(connection);
    // ... snip ...
    video = new Video();
    video.attachNetStream(stream);
    addChild(video);
    stream.play(null);
    stream.appendBytes(videoByteArray as ByteArray); // videoByteArray is taken from URLLoader downloaded content, i.e. the video
    As you can see NetStream doesn't know anything about the video, it doesn't know anything about the server, so it can not take something from crossdomain.xml.
    As far as I've read, it's imposible to do what I'm doing: simply Flash security won't allow to take contents of anonymous stream (i.e. stream started with play(null)).
    So my question is: how do I download video first and then play (instead of streaming) it in some other way? I couldn't find such API on NetStream itself.

  • Exporting an iphoto slideshow to play in the iphone

    Hello - any ideas how i can get a iphoto slideshow exported to play on an iphone.
    If you export an iMovie - under the share option there is an export movie option, and then you can choose the iphone format?
    Many thanks

    Do you have Quicktime Pro? If you do you can add the movie to the audio track, scaling it to match the track's length, and export for iPhone.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Do I need to download a DNLA server to play contents of my iMac on my TV through a blue ray player?

    Do I need to download a DNLA server to play contents of my imac on my TV through a blue ray player?  I have Mountain Lion.

    No, but if you want to do this wirelessly or as Apple calls it, AirPlay, then you need a compatible iMac and an Apple TV or other compatible AirPlay device.
    Otherwise you can connect the two with a suitable cable.

  • Export settings within Server Admin doesn't really

    So I've had a whootin good time with a migration. Situation was a dual g4 died on me, right after I'd imaged it to a mac mini. I have another mac mini that I wanted to setup as a backup machine/tester. I tried one time to export all the server settings and admin settings and that didn't work at all, so I decided to export say...just my firewall settings, then import just the firewall settings back in. That worked, but didn't have all my firewall settings (ended up having to copy ipfw.conf.apple over). I then tried the same with just dns settings, but that didn't work..I'd import in, the zones would flash up on the zone list, then vanish. Has anyone ever successfully exported and imported settings? So far it's seemed like kind of a waste of time if it's not gonna copy everything over. I dunno...maybe it's the g4 imaged to the macmini that I'm exporting from. All of these are on 10.5.6 using the latest build of Server Admin

    Have a look at the following:

  • I received a link to a iTune movie trailer in an email.  I clicked on watch now and then play.  I was told I need to download Quick Time, but when I clicked on download, I was told that QT is built into Mac OSX.  My MacBook has OSX Yosemite.

    I received a link to a iTune movie trailer in an email.  I clicked on "watch now" and then "play".  I was told I need to download Quick Time, but when I clicked on download, I was told that QT is built into Mac OSX.  How do I get QT to work?

    When I hit the play icon the little arrow thing goes all the way over to the end of the file and doesn't play at all.  What gives?
    Is this a minimum information puzzle? It is difficult to diagnose a problem long distance when you provide little or no information regarding what actions you are actually taking to export the data or which version of iPhoto you are using. Based on your latest description of how it doesn't work, my best guess is that you are exporting a single frame from your video clip rather than the "Original" file. This is easily checked by opening the file in QT and simply pressing the left/right arrow keys. If the file only contains a single frame, then your export work flow is at fault. Please select the "File > Original" (or similar) option in the export menu to export the entire file in whatever version of iPhoto you are using..

  • *.flv Video in Captivate 6 doesn't play on network share

    Hey there,
    i'm using Captivate 6 including a FLV-Video-File. When I start the preview inside Captivate it work well. When I publish to my local drive it also works well.
    But on a network share (i must use a network share for e-Learning in my Company) on the slide with the Video i got a blank Window with a small loadingbar on the top-left corner.
    What to do? General Flash Security isn't a Option here, because i can't guarantee that every user is skilled enough to change the settings.
    Thanks,
    Chris
    /edit: *.flv-Video can still played from the Captivate-Output-Folder on Network Share

    Okay.. First a big thanks!!
    I've resolved the path issues and am now experimenting with formats other than SCORM that will hopefully launch off our LMS (SyberWorks).
    I think I know what a cross domain issue is... it seems pretty self evident, (ie) .htm/.swf files live on a different server domain than video or audio files.
    I think all my files are on the same domain in the zip file. However, are the following paths also an example of a cross domain issue?:
    Z:\orgs\ogslp\courses\2012videotest\videotestinternalsrvr\videotestinternalsrvr.htm
    (this is where I upload, or publish Captivate files)
    http://gslcampus/ogslp/courses/2012videotest/videotestinternalsrvr/videotestinternalsrvr.h tm
    (this is where clients access the training modules via IE & the Syberworks LMS, intranet)
    One more..... when publishing with the Captivate > Internal Server option what path do I input to access the server?
    Z:\orgs\ogslp\courses\2012videotest\videotestinternalsrvr\videotestinternalsrvr.htm
    (backdoor for uploading files)
    or
    http://gslcampus/ogslp/courses/2012videotest/videotestinternalsrvr/videotestinternalsrvr.h tm
    (actual internal, intranet url for accessing courses)
    PS when I upload files the following appears before the Z:
    Computer > SyberWorks (\\sousa)(Z:)
    Any advice would be appreciated - thanks for your time.

  • Data Pump - Trying to Export to *Another Server* Gives Error

    hi experts,
    I'm using 10.2.0.4 on Windows.
    I want to create a Scheduler job to periodically refresh my test database from my production database which resides on a different Windows server.
    Using the Database Control GUI to create the Export job, if I specify a Directory that is on the other server, the job fails to create and I get this error:
    Export Submit Failed
    Errors: ORA-39002: invalid operation ORA-39070: Unable to open the log file. ORA-29283: invalid file operation ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 488 ORA-29283: invalid file operation Exception : ORA-39002: invalid operation ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SYS_ERROR", line 79 ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_DATAPUMP", line 2953 ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_DATAPUMP", line 3189 ORA-06512: at line 2
    But if I use a local directory ie one that is on the same server that the export will run on.... no problem - job is created and it executes fine.
    ?? What is required to be able to export to a non-local destination?
    Thanks, John

    Thanks for the replies and ideas.
    This is what the GUI generated:
    declare
    h1 NUMBER;
    begin
    begin
    h1 := dbms_datapump.open (operation => 'EXPORT', job_mode => 'SCHEMA', job_name => 'DP_EXPORT_SSU', version => 'COMPATIBLE');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.set_parallel(handle => h1, degree => 1);
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.add_file(handle => h1, filename => 'EXPSSU.LOG', directory => 'DP_FROMULTRAPRD', filetype => 3);
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.set_parameter(handle => h1, name => 'KEEP_MASTER', value => 0);
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.metadata_filter(handle => h1, name => 'SCHEMA_EXPR', value => 'IN(''SSU'')');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.add_file(handle => h1, filename => 'EXPSSU%U.DMP', directory => 'DP_FROMULTRAPRD', filetype => 1);
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.set_parameter(handle => h1, name => 'INCLUDE_METADATA', value => 1);
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.set_parameter(handle => h1, name => 'DATA_ACCESS_METHOD', value => 'AUTOMATIC');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.set_parameter(handle => h1, name => 'ESTIMATE', value => 'BLOCKS');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.start_job(handle => h1, skip_current => 0, abort_step => 0);
    end;
    begin
    dbms_datapump.detach(handle => h1);
    end;
    end;
    After I finally got the job to execute (by specifying a local path), the export completed successfully.... BUT the job does not appear as a Scheduler Job. I expected to see it there. In reading it seems that, to execute a DP job, you first have to attach it, then run dbms_datapump.start_job - is that correct?
    ** How can I see the data pump jobs that exist?
    I will create a database link and tweak my tnsnames file.
    Steve, I prefer to drive this from the Production server so I will use a Network Export from that server going to dump files on the Test server.
    ** But I'm confused by your statement saying "in either case, the job will run on the test server". ??
    2 years from now, when I have forgotten about all of this, I want to only have to look at the scheduled jobs on the Production server to determine all the jobs that depend on that server.
    I'll post back with the results of my little "experiment". Thanks for your suggestions.

  • Merge Two WAV File then play the result

    Hi All,
    I'm new In MM, I path for two wav file I want to merge them then play the result,
    anyone can help me asap?
    Thanks in Advance,

    You could do this in FCE by putting stills of your slides on V1 and speaker notes on V2 and adjusting their sizes so that each fills an appropriate portion of the screen. Then export the whole thing as a QuickTime movie which a viewer can start/pause/stop in QuickTime Player. It's not as elegant as what you envision, but I think this approach would work.

  • I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

    I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
    I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
    Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
    Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.
    Steven
