Firefox should display .swf and .flv files without Adobe. You can do it can't you?

If the program, 'Media Player Classic' can play .swf and .flv files, the surely Firefox programmers can do for those what was done for .pdf files. PLEASE!

hello, mozilla is indeed working on it, but this is not an easy task...

  • Uploaded swf and flv files - right ?

    Hi all -
    Just getting to grips with flash movies, however not 100%
    i've got it right as yet ! Could someone with experience in flash
    movies confirm the files to upload are the swf and flv files to our
    server ? Everything appears OK when viewing the movies - take a
    quick look here www.sofabedgallery.co.uk/cosmosofa.php however I'm
    just a little concerned of the size of the flv file at a couple of
    mb. Is this the correct file to upload or should I try to upload
    the fla smaller file?
    Many thanks,
    Chris.

    Hi ,
    You can publish your project as MP4 with Cp6. For that --
    Do -- File-- Publish-- Media--- (Choose Dropdown) MP4 and (adjust settings, if you like) Hit publish.
    You can use the Adobe Media Encoder to convert the Video into FLV format.
    Also, you can use the SWF option on Publish Screen to publish the project as a Flash File.
    Thanks!

  • 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.

  • SWF and FLV file  sizes

    Hello,
    I have an flv file and the same flv file in an swf file. Both
    files are the same size. So, it seems that it doesn't matter,
    whether you import an flv file or an swf file, to keep your file
    size small. Is this correct ?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    > I have an flv file and the same flv file in an swf file.
    Both files are
    > the
    > same size.
    That's just a coincidence.
    There is different baggage / overheads with FLV vs SWF. So
    you will usually
    get some differences .. sometimes SWF smaller, other times
    FLV. However,
    the actual video payload is the same in both, and the audio
    is similar too,
    and they are the bulk of the file size. So there shouldn't be
    a huge
    difference in file size between SWF an FLV.

  • Website calling *.swf and *flv files from C:\

    I am after information from someone who has achieved this. I
    have a website that has a swf embedded in it that is calling a
    swf/flv on my hardrive. Firstly is this possible or am I waisting
    my time even trying this. I do realise the security issues involved
    and I have read posts and tutorials about achieving this but I
    still have had no luck. CAN ANYONE HELP ME BEFORE I START PULLING
    MY HAIR OUT!!

    The reason why I want to access information from the hardrive
    is because the information is about 600mb in all but cut up into
    60mb parts or chapters. It is for an online learning system but
    Australian BroadBand speeds are still way to slow for this sort of
    system. I've tried to give these files permissions but I still get
    issues. I am considering using Adobe AIR Technology and making a
    desktop application that accesses small amounts of informaion from
    the server, so basically turning this project on it's head.
    If you do have some more information for me that would be
    great but I think I'll go the AIR track.

  • Thumbnails of swf and qt files

    Anyone know of a way to make swf and qt files display in Bridge (CS3, CS4?) with a thumbnail of the first frame, instead of the generic icon for those file types?
    Thanks.
    JdF

    Hello Jesse,
    Thank you for using Bridge.
    It is a known limitation of Bridge that Bridge cannot thumbnail SWF and some of QT files. However, nost MOV files should be thumbnailed.
    Thank you for your understanding,

  • FLV fil without Play bar

    Hi
    Is i possibel to insert an FLV file without the "Start" panel in the buttom of the movie ?

    umm... right: flash applications, as mentioned. Not videos though; like the original post stated. There's really no need for you to attempt to justify your incorrect recommendation though.
    @shocker,
    It's not an incorrect recommendation.  In some situations, SWF is the better choice.  In other situations it isn't.   Without a link to the page, neither of us can know for sure what the OP has going on. :-)
    @steen,
    Intrusive media on web sites is very annoying.    If your media has audio, you really need to give people an on/off button and volume controls.

  • Flash CC does not publish swf and html files

    I'm having issues with Flash CC. When I go to publish my movie the status bar appeaers then quickly disappears and the html and swf files are not created. I'm also not able to export the movie as a quicktime or AVI file. Is there specific settings I must have to publish and export? Note: I am working with AS3 and tried to do a simpple test with a box moving left to right and I have the same problem.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Are you sure the HTML and SWF are not currently in use? For example if you publish and preview it in a browser, it can lock those files because they're "in use". Then Flash cannot overwrite them. You'd need to close the browser or any Flash Players displaying them. If that still won't overwrite, delete the files and see if they're re-created.
    If no files are being created at all, gointo publish settings and set a path to export the SWF and HTML file to, don't leaving it at the default (same folder as FLA). Try various places in fact to test permissions.
    If you're on Windows you could try running Flash CC as Administrator to also get around any file writing permission issues. Right-click on the Flash icon and select Run as Administrator.
    I've only really encountered this when my SWF/HTML was in use or stuck in a process.

  • Swf or flv files on Quicktime.

    I would like to know how to convert swf or flv files to Quicktime. It's been quite frustrating. Any help would be appreciated.

    Quicktime can't play SWF flies. Quicktime stop being able to play SWF files about 5 years ago because of security issues with the files. Quicktime could only play SWF file from Flash version 5 and below. Anyway, if you could convert the SWF file to Quicktime you will loose most of the SWF animation.

  • Firefox not displaying buttons and boxes when allow other pages to use their fonts instead of my selection is selected

    Firefox not displaying buttons and boxes when allow other pages to use their fonts instead of my selection is not selected. The irritating thing is that Firefox used to display pages until FF 31. Please fix this
    Thanks
    Randy

    The missing icons are supplied by a font that is downloaded from the server (@font-face) as you can probably see by little boxes that show the hex code of the characters.
    You will have to make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts to see such an icon font.

    In general, you are correct - but also your server does need to be properly configured (and those errors above lead me to think it may not be) to serve the file types that your uploading - but it could be something else entirely. Can you zip up your composition folder, upload it to your Creative Cloud files, set it to share, and then post a link here so I can download it? If you'd rather not share it publicly, can you PM me with a link to your composition files?
    Thanks,

  • How do I import .flv files to Adobe Premiere 12?

    How do I import .flv files to Adobe Premiere 12?
    thanks,

    XTimeTravelers
    If the details are as stated in your latest post, there are no inconsistencies here between us. Misunderstandings, probably.
    Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11 are standalone programs. Each comes with the same (but its own) Elements Organizer 11 and each with its own Editor section. When a given version (Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12 for example) is on the same computer, that version shares the same Elements Organizer catalog. All that being said....
    All you are saying is that you can import a .flv file into the Elements Organizer 11 that came with Photoshop Elements 11.
    a. Photoshop Elements 11 is a photo editor and will not support video (flv or otherwise). We agree on that.
    b. Elements Organizer 11 that comes with Photoshop Elements 11 does support the import of .flv files there for organizational purposes. And, you should be able to playback the .flv file in the Elements Organizer 11 (you may need VLC player, not sure on that requirement...but it is possible). You can do the same for Elements Organizer 12.
    All we are saying is the you cannot import a .flv file into the Premiere Elements Editor, be it for Premiere Elements Editor 11 or 12. And, you have not said that you have. All you are talking about is your experiences in the Elements Organizer 11 which should be the same for the Elements Organizer 12.
    So, we are in agreement on everything.
    Summary:
    You cannot import a .flv file into the Photoshop Elements Editor (any version) because it is a photo editor. You never claimed you did.
    You cannot import a .flv file into the Premiere Elements Editor (any version) even though it is a video editor. This particular video editor (11 or 12) does not support .flv.
    The Elements Organizer of these programs is another story where it is possible to import the .flv for organizational purposes and even playback.
    Does that make it all come together for you?
    Please review the above and then let me know if I am out of sync on what you wrote and how I have interpreted it.
    Thanks.

  • Import an FLV file from Adobe Connect into Premiere Elements 12?

    The Adobe Connect support staff recommended that we use Adobe Premiere Elements to edit the FLV file that we exported out of their software.  We purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 12 based on that advice.  Now we see that FLV files are not on the list of supported import files. 
    How can I import an FLV file from Adobe Connect into Adobe Premiere Elements 12 for editing?

    Welcome to the forum.
    Over the years, I have used Moyea's Flash Importer plug-in for PrPro, and it has worked perfectly. With about PrPro CS 4, IIRC, Adobe did add an FLV Importer, so Moyea began to suspend development of that plug-in. Then, with the release of the CC version of PrPro, they dropped FLV completely.
    Now, Moyea does have other programs, but I do not know if any of them are plug-ins for PrE. However, many of their programs can create, edit and output FLV.
    There is also a (free, if memory serves) FLV converter, FLV to AVI, which I used to convert FLV files, before I discovered the Moyea plug-in for my PrPro.
    I would look into Moyea, to see if there is anything, that will work as a plug-in to PrE, http://www.video-to-flash.com/products/, and if not, explore a program, such as FLV to AVI: http://www.pazera-software.com/products/flv-to-avi-converter/

  • Save a pdf file without Adobe automatically adding "-Copy" to the end

    How can I save a pdf file without Adobe automatically adding "-Copy" to the end of file name?

    If you have actually made any changes (e.g. adding a Sticky Note or filling out forms), the Save button will appear in the bottom toolbar.  It will save it as the same name.
    "- Copy" is added only when you tap/click the Save As button.  You can change it to something else, if you'd like.

    No amounts of restarts or restores, disconnecting and reconnecting power, restarting routers, re-logging in to iTunes has any effect at all.
