Exporting swf as flv for a multi-part demo

I am looking for a way to export and create a flv version of
a demo I just completed. The current swf demo pulls in several
different swf files at different points during the demo. Is there a
way to export the complete demo as a flv file?

Hi,
I do not know if there is easier way, but I suggest you can
collect all the demo in one file and export it to AVI or QT format
and convert it to FLV using the Flash FLV exported that comes with
Flash 8.
Hope you cna find an easier way

Exporting SWF from InDesign for presentation

I've exported a swf file for a presentation that uses .flv files. When I open the file in flash it works fine unless I put it in full screen mode. Doing this makes the videos huge/zoomed in. I need to get this done for Monday and I can't work out what I've done wrong. Only a few of the slides have a video on. The others with just a static image work perfectly fine.
Thanks for you help in advance

That´s unfortunate indesign "feature" which is quite hard to work-around.
Check this FAQ, Bugs&Fixes section / FullScreen view does not work properly if videos have been used:
http://www.edocker.fi/index.php/en/support/frequently-asked-questions/
It´s made for eDocker users but I think you may use it also without eDocker, with SWF files exported from InDesign

Exporting FLA/SWF to FLV

How can I turn my Flash 8 animation into an FLV file?
The only solution I've found is exporting it as a .MOV file.
But to do this I have to use Flash 5, which destroys my animation
since there's no movieclip filters.
There has to be a way to do this, or Adobe is just retarded
for not seeing the massive need for animators uploading to the web
via FLV. My searches online for a solution have been fruitless.
Please help!
Thaaaaaaaaaaanks.

I realize that this is a response to a post that was first added a loooonng time ago, but thought I'd weigh in on this topic after cruising through this forum.
One possible solution to converting SWF to FLV (although many other folks have suggested using other 3rd party tools) is to export your fla as a .MOV file. Afterall, the Flash Video Encoder that comes shipped as part of the Pro version of the software will only allow you to encode .avi/.mov, etc files.
So, while working in Flash, rather than converting the file to swf, go to File -> Export -> Export Movie and output the file as an avi/mov file or whatever. From there, import the resulting file into the Video Encoder and that will help convert the file into an flv.
Hope that helps, and sorry for the delayed response to this post!

How can I export swf that calls a flv to avi?

I have a Flash movie that uses Actionscript 2.0 to trigger animations. The swf and flv files are separate though - the flv is called by the swf. There are cues in the flv that fire Actionscript events. How can I get the whole thing to export? I can convert the flv to an avi but I need the animations. Thanks for any help.

There is no method available in Flash Professional to convert SWF to AVI. You have to look for external applications which does the job for you. Check this site.

How to set a loop on an .flv so that an exported .swf loops?

hi there. i am using Flash CS4 and I would like to know how to set a loop in an flv file so that when it is exported to swf, the movie will loop. Basically i have taken an existing interactive flash movie and have decompiled it into its individual flv counterparts. what i intend to do is take out all the nonsense from each flv file and then reconstruct the flash movie, export each file to swf and then convert each swf to avi or some other video format. to do this i will be using sothink swf to avi converter which allows you to convert swf files to avi files. this program allows you to convert swf files that loop by looping the swf file for as long as you want until you stop it, in which a video file is created from "the recording"
after i decompiled the original file, many of the existing flv files were already set to loop. i know this because when exported to swf the swf file would loop. now when i went ahead and went into each flv file to edit a couple things, when i went to export them to swf, the swf files wouldn't loop. mind you, some of them did loop, and some of them did not loop. the ones i have edited are all supposed to loop and i cannot figure out what it is thats preventing some of the flv or exported swf files to loop. all i did was take out a few unnecessary frames from the beginning of each flv and nothing more. i am pretty new to Flash and do not know anything about coding and know very little about flash settings.
i figured that selecting the "loop playback" option in the control drop down menu might help seeing as the flv file does loop when played in the editor, but again when exported to swf the swf file does not loop. what confuses me the most is that some of the exported swf files do loop. ALL of the exported swf files need to loop and my guess is that in order to make that happen, something in the flv file needs to be set correctly.
can someone please assist me with this issue? if there is a way to simply loop an existing swf file that does not loop, can someone tell me how to do that? any help with this problem is greatly appreciated and i appologize if something like this has been asked before.... i just couldnt stand looking through 22 pages of search results to find the exact solution to my problem
thank you!!!

Hi,
You can use shortDesc property. Something like
<af:commandToolbarButton text="Some Button"
id="ctb1" shortDesc="This button does something.."/>-Arun

Creating a cfhttp multi part form post for google docs upload

Hey all,
If you saw my last thread, you know I am working with google docs and uploading documents to it. Well I got basic document uploading working, but now I am trying to include meta data. Google requires you to include the metadata with the actual file data and seperate them by using a multi part form upload. I don't know exactly the process for doing so, but they have a handy code snippet of the desired results at
http://code.google.com/apis/documents/docs/3.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#UploadingDoc s
So I am basically trying to mimic that payload, however I am continually getting an error stating that there are no parts in a multi part form upload.
<errors xmlns='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005'><error><domain>GData</domain><code>InvalidEntryException</code><internalReason>No parts detected in multipart message</internalReason></error></errors>
to be exact. I am not really sure what I am doing wrong here. I figure it is one of two things, either I am not including the actual data in the payload properly (I am currently using a body type param for the payload, but I have also tried a formfield named content to deliver it. Neither worked). So maybe I need to do something else tricky there? The other thing which I am not reallly sure about is the content-length attribute. I don't know exactly how to calculate that, and I read in another forum that a content length attribute was messing that guy up. Right now I am just taking the lenght of the payload string and multiplying by 8 (to get the number of bytes for the entire payload) but hell if I know if that is right. It could be I just don't know how to set up the parts for the message, it seems pretty straight forward though. Just define a boundary in the content-type, then put two dashes before it wherever you define a new part, and two dashes trailing the last part.
Anyway, here is my code, any help is much appreciate. I'm a bit beyond my expertise here (not really used to trying to have to roll my own http requests, nevermind multipart post form data) so I'm kinda flailing around. Thanks again.

Is there a workaround for wsdl with multi-part porttype with ESB?

I am trying to implement a simple connection to a service with ESB, and have been successful in trials with several other products, but when I try to use the SOA adapter with ESB I get the following message.
"The selected porttype is using a message that is invalid for ESB because it is multi-part or has a simple type. The message getTransactionsByRegistrationIdRequest in operation getTransactionsByRegistrationIdRequest of prottype QueryTransactionsWebService is invalid. Please select another porttype of fix the wsdl."
Is there a work around for this?
We would like to use ESB since we are licensed, but continue to have problems.
Any help would be appreciated.

This works out of box in 11 but as a 10.1.3 workaround, You can write a java web service to proxy the multipart service and expose a regular doc literal service wsdl to ESB. This shouldn't be too much work for an experienced java/web service programmer. We are going to enable multipart for a pass through (no filters or xsl) service in 10.1.3.4. Let me know what path you choose.

How do i create a multi part checkout form for my ecommerce checkout?

Hey Guys,
I was following this video on creating multi-part forms: http://www.bcgurus.com/tutorials/increase-conversion-with-multi-step-web-forms
I'm trying to set this up on my checkout page (order_registration-us.html), but it seems BC does not let me do this. Upon submit, i am not sent to the step 2 form, but rather, i am given a receipt for the order. How do i setup the multi part form? Your help is greatly appreciated!

You can not do that on that form as that form is looking to process eCommerce sales.
Better question is why?
In modern UI and UX design and methadology multi step forms are to be avoided, why do you need so many fields? IS your form one field at a time going down the website?
If that is the case then you should look to design your forms to have multiple coloulmns and be smarter. Combining first and last name fields into the FullName field for example.
Hiding the shipping fields and have a tick box and javascript to say "shipping same as billing" and so on.

Controller for .swf and .flv files is disappearing

When I place an .swf or .flv file in Dreamweaver, the controller, which I created in Flash, disappears when previewed in Safari. Do I forget about creating a controller in Flash before exporting to the site directory in Dreamweaver and create it in Dreamweaver instead? Can someone either tell me in simple terms how to do this, or direct me to a tutorial? Many thanks.

If you put the page, the .flv file, the .swf files, and the Scripts folder online, we should be able to help. Otherwise, all we can do is make wild guesses as to what you've done.
BTW, the most common mistake is forgetting to upload the Scripts folder if this is what I think it is.

I am trying to loop a swf or flv in DM... 2 days of reading and no luck

I purchased a flash file of an animated flag. The artist did a nice job of making the loop pretty seamless. Here's the file:
http://videohive.net/item/us-american-flag-loop/18643
I only recieved a mov file. I converted it to swf and flv. I have the complete Adobe CS3 Edition including Premier and Flash. I also downloaded some other free converters.
I have spent two days reading web forums on how to make that flag loop in DW. I can't get it going and I'm pretty frustrated. I am a beginner by the way.
I tried the autoloop & autoplay buttons. I tried entering the parameter of "Loop" = true, I've looked at the code a little to make sure everything related to loop, autoplay, auto-rewind was set to true and a whole bunch of other troubleshooting I've read about. It sounds like it has been a problem for others too.
At this point I'm willing to pay in bacon double cheesburgers. If you halp me fix this I'll send some Burger King coupons your way.
Thank you!

Thank you PZ. I did go through the whole tutorial to see if I was missing something. No luck yet.
The file I recieved was a mov file (I'm not dealing with a fla file at all). I'm opening the mov file in Flash CS3 and convert and export as flv or swf. Iv'e tried both.
The only thing I have not done yet was try uploading my file to my remote hosting service to see if a browser will loop it there. I've been doing my previewing in DW CS3 and hit the "view in browser" button.
If I upload the file to my remote server, would anybody be willing to look at the code and give me a hand in figuring out why it won't loop?
Thank you and I have read all the past questions about this issue on the Adobe forum's and have tried everything I can possible find.

Adding a SWC to a exported swf via a CS Extension

Hi,
I'm building a extension for Flash, and I'd like to be able add a swc file to a exported swf, that is generated through my Extension. I know that in the Flash JS extension language you can export a swf using:
fl.getDocumentDOM().exportSWF("", true);
As part of the export process can I add a SWC file, that contains code my CS extension needs to inject into the generated swf file. I did think that I could use:
document.externalLibraryPath
To point to a SWC file that is added to the published swf.
What I want to do is add meta data to the Flash file that can be accessed externally at runtime, so I mark areas of the SWF that are updated dynamically at runtime.
Are these ideas possible?
Thanks
Stephen

That's not a possibility in this beta, however you might find this plug-in useful: http://www.photographers-toolbox.com/products/lrmogrify2.php It'll allow you to set the size in pixels using the export dialog and add borders of your choice.

Use question pool with multi-part questions?

Is it possible to use the question pool in Captivate 5 for a quiz with multi-part questions? I'd like to have a question selected from a pool, but after the learner answers the first part, they get a second question that is based on the first part.
They get a question: "Is this heart sound dangerous or safe?" Then, after answering that, they'd get the question "What is the diagnosis?" for the same sound. The first question comes from a specified pool, but the second question is based on the first question. Then, they'd go on to a new pool question.
I''d appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks!

I would use the XML function from Captivate 4.
- Make yourself a test quiz with two slides, one being a multiple choice.
- Export it to XML
- Open the XML File in Excel
Good point to start with is ns1:g and ns1:Source26.
Most likely you can get all your question into captivate that way.

How do I convert a .swf to .flv

Hi,
I'm currently developing content for a flash e-learning
environment that requires .flv extension. I'm using Captivate 3 for
the task of creating the content, but have not found a way to
export or convert the .swf output of Captivate to make it .flv
I'm totally at a loss - can anyone help?

I'm not sure this will help, but what I know is that the FLV
format is designed for streaming or progressive download of video
from the server to the user's browser by converting it to the flv
format via an import procedure into a Flash doc. Normally I use
Flash to import a movie into a Flash file layer, add a sound layer
for, say, a background music loop, on another layer and publish it
as a swf and flv, using the Component Inspector to set the rewind
to "true" or "false".
This process creates two required files: the final swf and an
flv which calls the swf when the page opens or other event occurs
on the web page. The user experience is absent the jerky appearance
that often occurs from swf alone or movies alone.
The video component that is imported into my Flash doc as
described in my first paragraph above, can either be a .mov from
anywhere or one I create in Flash and export as an .mov
I don't know about formats other than .mov I think it depends
on your final deployment, i.e. web, dvd, whatever.
I have not used captivate, but if it will create a .mov for
you, should do it. You may have, however, other controls to build
in as well. Flash 8 and above allows you to do that in the process
of creating the .flv
Then, you must load the .flv and swf onto the server at the
same level. Or, you must make other code changes so the flv "finds"
the swf. A different path can be entered using the Component
Inspector in Flash.
Hope that helps.

Exported swf formatting differs from preview mode

When I view a model in preview mode, everything looks fine with the formatting. However, after exporting the file (or viewing the export preview), some of the formatting is incorrect - such as axes labels and titles being truncated or moved from their original position, as well as grid sizes changing so that what I have aligned no longer is aligned.
I can make formatting adjustments in the model so that it appears more properly in the exported swf file, basically correcting for these differences. However, this is obviously not ideal, and I have not been able to identify any patterns in these discrepancies (sometimes it looks fine, other time not). I appreciate any suggestions!

Hi,
I am facing the same issue too. The whole formatting goes off once exported to ppt. The fonts reduce to such an extent that I cannot see the fonts. If I drag the swf component to full screen in ppt, the labels, come over the axes.
Please let me know how to correct it.
