Fail to play f4v file with videoDisplay component

<mx:VideoDisplay id="player" width="320" height="240" source="rtmp://localhost/vod/264.f4v"/>
whether a local file or a file on FMS, VideoDisplay failed to play a h.264 video file. (for .flv it is ok)
My flash player is of version 10
Why?

Did you ever figure this out? I am having the same problem. I wonder if it is the version of the SDK that I am using. I am currently locked into a hacked version of v3.1 of the SDK.
I see these two errors when I try to embed the video.
'/assets/video/SearchTutorial.f4v' does not have a recognized extension, and a mimeType was not provided
Unable to transcode /assets/video/SearchTutorial.f4v.

High CPU usage when playing flv files with VideoDisplay

Hi all,
Now i develop a project with VideoDisplay, my problem is when i play f4v file, my CPU usage is very high.., I also play the same file with Adobe Media Player, the problem is still exist.
Can anybody help me ~? thanks~,and sorry for my poor english~

I'm pretty sure one reason is that Flash "watches" the video so it can sync up the frames with other animations you might want to overlay.

Can CDHtmlDialog play swf file with audio component?

Hello, I'm using CDHtmlDialog in our application to play swf that shows user how to do a workflow. It works fine if swf does NOT have audio; if the swf has audio component, then it does not play.
Can CDHtmlDialog play swf with audio?
If not, any suggestion on how to implement playing swf file with audio?
Many thanks in davance.

Hi PingHu,
How do you play the swf file in a html. I tried play a swf file with audio in my CDHtmlDialog class. I just use this:
Html code Play the SWF file.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<body>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="200" height="100">
<param name="movie" value="filename.swf">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<embed src="D:\html directory\swf filename.swf" width="400" height="500" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
</object>
</body>
</html>
Then my sample is able to play a SWF file with audio. Hope this helps some.

How to Play f4v Files

I am using FMLE 3.2 to save to a file. Video is H.264, audio is mp3, file extension is f4v. I can successfully place the file on my FMIS for playback, but is there a way to view the file locally before placing it on the server? I've tried a number of players (VLC, etc.) that claim FLV suppport, but none seem to recognize these files.
I'm coming from a Windows Media background where I use the encoder to create a file, and instantly play the file with Windows Media Player - no server necessary. Do I *have* to put my file on my server just to view it?

You have to flatten the file using the f4v post processor (available for free on adobes site) it’s a command line tool you run the file through, takes while but not too long, you can then play the file with vmc, quicktime etc.

Problems playing .f4v files in CS5.5 that were rendered from CS5.5?

Premiere Pro CS5.5 seems to have trouble playing .f4v files that it has rendered? I basically edit my video, (uncompressed .mov) export it as a .f4v file for YouTube which is about half an hour in length. I then get that half an hour video and do a video preview of what happened over the half hour… like a montage. I used to export my videos to .mp4 and I never had any problems when trying to do my montage edits, but now that I am using .f4v CS5.5 freezes the video but the audio keeps playing, the video won't play at all or it freezes during transitions (and the transitions are rendered before I try to playback my clips) The bottom line is that the .f4v format has never played back perfectly once and I could understand this if I had got the file from somewhere else but I rendered it from CS5.5? Can anybody help me with this please.
Thank you
Bird

Hi Jim, thanks for your reply What you have suggested, is what I think I will do. I think I'll create a new sequence from my exisiting sequence and do my montage edits that way instead of using .f4v or .mp4. Do you know why I was able to edit my montages from .mp4 with no problem but not from .f4v file format which was rendered from CS5.5? I just wondered why as this seems odd to me.
Thank you in advance.

My QuickTime player us not playing .avi files and says I need a codec I can't play no .avi files on QuickTime. How could I fix this because I want to play these files with QuickTime.

Hmm . . . comes with a Utility MPEG2 Component ML app with no explanation of what it's for?
The utility app is an "assistant PKG installer." It allows Lion and Mountain Lion users to install the older QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installer PKG file which is not allowed to run on its own under Lion or Mountain Lion since these operating systems already have a QT X only MPEG-2 component embedded in the QT embedded structure. Without this utility you would have to either copy the component from an older system to your Lion or Mountain Lion system, use Pacifist for installation, or manually open the PKG contents and transfer the component to the appropriate component folder.
As to your "discussion" regarding the playback of AVI file types, there are really only two strategies here:
1) You can add component support so that QT can play the files natively or
2) You can convert the file contents to compression formats that are natively compatible with the unmodified QT component configuration.
Each user should decide for his or her own self which approach best suits their needs for a particular source file. In most cases, conforming the system's codec component configuration to play the source file directly results in higher video quality since no transcoding takes place but this strategy will not work if a codec which is required is not available for the user's operating system. On the other hand, converter utilities tend to support more built-in codecs and are easier to use since the user does not have to concern him or herself with the nature of the particular source compression formats but at the risk of some potential loss in visual quality. As to what converter to use, once again this is a matter of personal choice. In the case of commercial converters like iSkysoft, the codecs are built in while MPEG Streamclip accesses the host operating system's QT codec component configuration. I personally prefer the free HandBrake app for AVI, MKV, TS, MTS, and M2TS conversions since it has an exceptionally full-featured X.264 GUI with some user options that 97% of users are likely to never use.

How to open VLC wit JAVA and later play a file with it..?

Hi,
I do it if I want to Play a file with VLC:
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
          try {
               rt.exec("C:\\Program Files\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc " + "C:\\songs\\llarala.mp3");
          } catch (IOException e) {
               // TODO Auto-generated catch block
               e.printStackTrace();
but I want to Open VLC and later work with this VLC opend, for example to Play a file with it. Anyone knows how to do it? Thanks.. I' m new about that..

Keep working as you are is the simplest way. The VLC client (and server) has a pretty rich command-line interface, you can do pretty much anything through the command-line that you can with any other interface. Or there's the telnet interface, if all those processes are too much

i uderstand , thanx...
i managed to open an audio file and placed it in the sampler,i can play t sample in the little keyboard in the zones section, howver i dont know how to play it with my controller... the sample shows in C1 on logic's keyboard but if i play C1 on my controller nothing happens... how can i fix this?

Amarok 1.4.10 from AUR plays flac files with errors

amarok 1.4.10 from AUR plays flac files with errors and i mean that it plays flac files but with strange behavior and of course the result is awful is there any chance to fix that problem. i have compile it with xine engine, can i use a different engine in PKGBUILD and how. i should write that i don't known much from configure a PKGBUILD by my own. with exaile and totem i have no problem i also play flacs with 24bit and 96khz audio quality. tnks for your time

Why not amarok 2.3 from extra?
Found this but its for 2.3: forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=116&t=85428
looks like amarok just uses xine, which I don't know much about...
the 2.3 version depends on kde4, so you can run kde4 system settings and switch the multimedia backend between xine, mplayer, and gstreamer (need the aur packages first). I know mplayer should use ffmpeg to playback though.
Edit: looks like exaile and totem use gstreamer for playback

Just upgraded an iMac with 4GB Memory and Intel Processor from 10.6.8 to Mavericks and Quicktime plays m4v files with stuttering audio

I just upgraded an iMac with 4GB Memory and 3.33 Ghz Intel Core Duo Processor from 10.6.8 to Mavericks. I now have Quicktime 10.3 which plays m4v files with stuttering audio. This is a nightmare as I use Quicktime a lot in my research. I have seen similar threads but so far only reporting the problem. For now I have installed Quicktime Player 10.7 (which appears in utilities, leaving Quicktime 10.3 in the main applications list) which plays the same videos with no problem, but it would be good to know if anyone has managed to find a workaround at all, or know if Apple have plans to do anything about it?

Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.

How to use F4V Files with Premiere 5.5

Hey all,
I work at a small company that does live streaming of video. We are experimenting with new HD cameras and have found that our best results for streaming has been to use h.264. We are having fantastic results with this, however, Using Flash Meda Live Encoder the end result is an .f4v file. I don't have much experience with this variation of .flv, but I'm honestly finding it quite useless.
I understand that you don't typically edit this type of file, that it is in a sense working backwards. However, our situation is that our streaming quality is highest when we use this format. Obviously, I am unable to get this file into premiere to edit it. I'm actualy unable to play it virtually anywhere as well (moyea converter, moyea flv player, vlc...nothing plays it).
Does anyone have any suggestions as far as where to go from here? I know there is probably a lot more info required for anyone to give me some feedback, so let me know what you need to know about our equipment/settings and I'll supply it.
Thanks for the help!

@Jim Unfortuntaley, it's not practical for us to encode two files, one streaming and one capturing in a different format.
I do appreciate the help though.
@John That program looks cool, however that doesn't help either because we stream LIVE video. So I need to be encoding through FMLE or WME if I'm doing a windows file.
I actually had some progress using the adobe f4v post processor. I was able to convert the file into another f4v file that was able to import into Premiere. However, once I import it, I get no audio on my file. When I play the file, there is audio, but again when I import it into Premiere, no audio at all.
This seems to be a common problem and a potential bug. But if anyone has any further input, im VERY close to having success if I can only get my audio in there. (I do know I could get the audio into premiere by itself, but I'm trying to create a workflow that I can bring to my boss. He won't be a big fan of having many steps to get everything into Adobe)

Power PC G5 Unable to Play .MOV File with Avid DNxHD Codec

Our client is sending us .mov Quicktimes with Avid DNxHD Codec.
It wouldn't play on our Macbook Pros, but no problem, I downloaded the codec and it ran fine afterwards.
Not having the same luck with our Power Mac G5 Workstation.
It runs on Mac OS Leopard 10.5.8.
Downloaded the codec for Leopard from this link:
http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=263545
Nothing changed.
I play the file and all I see is black as the timeline runs.
How should I fix this issue?

The Power Mac G5 does not have an Intel Processor like the newer macs do. Could that be root of issue?
It is a definite possibility. The link you posted indicated the Mac v2.1 component was compatible with OS 10.5.5 and later which would normally imply QT 7 with or without Intel CPU. However, the editing software applications do seem to restrict their use to "Intel only" Mac systems. For instance, Pro Tools v8.3 and higher are listed as "Intel Only" software. Did try the v2.01 QT codec component or look for anything older?
