Flash 8 Video Encoder corrupted

I have Studio 8. It seems that my copy of Video Encoder is corrupt both on my hard drive and on the install CD. When I try to repair the install it asks me to load disk 1 - which of course is loaded. Flash works fine as do all my other Macromedia products. Any ideas please?

Flash 8 Video Encoder- Necessary Codec or File Corrupt

I have a bunch of quicktime files I'm looking to convert but
keeping getting this error from the Flash 8 encoder when I try to
encode or click 'settings':
You won't be able to encode this file. Your computer doesn't
have the necessary codec or the file is corrupt.
I am having success with other quicktime vids, so what gives?
Thanks

That kind of question is very hard to answer. There is so
many factors to consider,
it will be one, never ending guessing game.
Try multiple videos, divx, mov , wmv etc... See if you can
mange to get any of these
to work. If none than perhaps the FLV player is not set up
properly or the encoding
setting isn't correct. If some of these work, than perhaps is
the video in question
that is Flash incompatible and you might need to save it in
another format using video
editing tools. Also make sure that the browser players are
compatible with the file version
you publishing to.
Than, after having all these answers, we can't start to try
to figure
out what and where it goes wrong.

Flash 8 Video Encoder, audio/video discrepancy from mpeg

Two questions...
First, more urgently, I've been given an origianl
720xsomething mpeg format video, and I'm trying to bring it over to
flash... I use the flash 8 video encoder, which does a phenomenal
job of keeping video quality while vastly reducing file size, but
in this case, (unlike some others in the past) I'm getting a
bizarre discrepancy between the speed of audio vs. speed of
video... I can't find a way to force the mpeg (or flash encoder
software) to TELL me what the frame rate of the original mpeg is,
and even when i attempt to force it to 24 or 25 during conversion
to flv, it doesn't seem to bother matching it up to the audio...
when i take the result and export it from flash, i'll try, at 24
the video is going too fast for audio, but at 23 its going too
slow...
and this SEEMs related to 2nd question.. I took about 15
solid minutes of video of a particularly nice sunset in
progression, with the hopes of compressing it down to about 30-60
seconds for effect... but it seemed like, no matter what frame rate
I tried to compress it to with the encoder, it just drew each frame
out to a set length, and even if i tried to export the flash really
fast, it remained at the epicly slow frame rate...
is there a relation? what am I doing wrong?
is there a way to detect the ACTUAL frame rate of the
original mpeg... is there a way to force the audio and video to
remained sync'd up? Seems the that problem is, if i go with the
default 'Same as source' I'm left to guess what that might be when
exporting from flash, as nothing ever actually tells me what that
source frame rate actually was! Is there some natural audio
compression business inside mpeg video that works fine for mpeg
video, but the flash encoder can't handle well? I've tried it with
about a billion different frame rate, audio data rate, quality, and
export settings, and have yet to get a sync.
Thanks in advance!

I should have been more clear.
I changed the file name from .vob to .mpg and then tried to
add the video file to Flash 8 Video Encoder and received the
following error message:
"You won't be able to encode this file. Your computer doesn't
have the necessary codec or the file is corrupt."
Currently,
I use ffmpegx to convert the .vob to .dv and then, I import
the .dv into Flash 8 Video Encoder and convert it to a .flv....
I can use ffmpegx to go straight to a .flv, but the file size
is larger b/c the compression is different, not On2 VP6...
I would like to skip the middle step because my files are
very large and it takes extra time.

Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder.msi

While attempting to uninstall Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder via the Control Panel, I get an error that the code cannot locate the Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder.msi file. I believe this may have been caused by iTunes installing QuickTime so, I have uninstalled both iTunes and QuickTime but I still get the following error message:

Flash 8 video Encoder & .VOB

I receive .vob files and would like to go directly from them
to a .flv using the Flash 8 video encoder, but am not able. Does
anyone know if there are any work arounds or plugins to do this? Is
any one else has success doing this. I would like to avoid
converting the .vob into a .dv/mov/mov/avi/etc.... to get this to
work.
Thanks.

No video after Flash 8 Video Encoder

I have read some other posts and although they are similar,
none of the solutions posted helps me fix my specific issue.
Using Flash 8 on Windows XP Pro SP2, I have a MPEG-2 file. I
can play the MPEG file using Windows Media Player 11 and RealPlayer
11 but I cannot play it using QuickTime 7.2. When I load the MPEG
file into Flash 8 Video Encoder (to convert it to a FLV file), it
doesn't seem to recognize that there is a video portion. It
recognizes there is an audio portion. By this I mean:
1. In Flash 8, click on File > Import > Import video...
2. Browsed to the MPEG file and clicked Next
3. Selected Progressive download... and clicked Next
4. In the Encoding screen, the video portion (top right hand
corner) is just blank.
In the MPEG files that work, I see the first frame of the
video. So, Flash 8 Video Encoder does not recognize there is a
video portion. Also, in Advanced Settings, in the Encodign tab, the
Encode Video checkbox is grayed out and not selectable. Only the
Encode Audio is checkable.
In writing this, I think the problem is my MPEG file. So I'll
continue to search the net for solutions to this. I just hope
someone has run into this issue in this forum and provide some
guidance.
Thanks.

Flash 8 video encoder + SWF

Hi,
I need to convert some video file with the flash 8 video
encoder but i need an SWF output instead of a FLV. I know FLV is
the best for internet use but we can't integrate those type of file
in director so I really ned a swf file. I was wondering how could I
do it ...
II've tried to import the FLV in Flash 8 as an embedded video
but as the warning said the audio is not synched with the video
when i export it. Anyone have an idea how could I export a SWF
without beeing linked to the FLV ??
Thanks,

try to play FLV file?
download & install FLV player,
try this:

expecting a SWF file?
- import your flv into a flash movie & publish it

Flash 8 Video Encoder - Optimizing Conversion Time

I'm using the Flash 8 Video Encoder to convert .mov files to
flv files. On my station I have the following:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro1,1
Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB
Memory: 12 GB
Bus Speed: 1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MP11.005C.B08
SMC Version: 1.7f10
I've got 151 GB available on my system drive.
Presently, it is taking me approximately 2 hours 45 minutes
to convert a 6 minute 26 sec mov to a flv with custom settings of:
Max Date Rate: 300 kbps
Frame Rate: Same as Source
Audio Data Rate: 48 kbps (mono)
500 x 333 pixels.
HOWEVER, on an associate's computer he is able to convert
under the same specs, same files, etc. in 1 hour 40 minutes.
His computer specs are:
Power Mac G5
Processor Speed - 2.3 GHz
2-CPU's
L2 Cache - 1 mb per CPU
Memory - 16 GB
Bus Speed 1.15 GHz
My computer has much more powerful processor, so we're
confused why it's taking longer on my computer.
I also have a second internal drive but presently the
programs and source file are on my system HD. Someone suggested
that I should try to make sure that the Video Encoder has max RAM
allocated to it as well as having the scratch disk and cache set to
the second internal drive. I don't know how to do this or even if
it's possible but looking for advice and suggestions on how to
better optimize the Video Encoder and would appreciate any help
with this ASAP.
Thanks!

Problem in Flash CS3 video Encoder

Hi,
I am experiencing a bug in the Flash CS3 Video encoder. I
have saved an XML file with settings that I will be using for
numerous video. I have basically set the Data Rate, Frame Rate, Key
Frame Interval, Audio and Video Size. The frame rate is set to
14.98.
When I load the profile that I have saved, the frame rate
stays at 14.98, but if i hit ok, and then click on the settings
again to modify them, the frame rate goes to 'same as source' and
does not stay at 14.98. If I change the frame rate to 14.98 at this
point, it sticks. My question is, why does it go to 'same as
source', and it concerns me, that if I do not manually go in and
change the settings back to 14.98, is it encoding the video at its
current frame rate.
Here is the XML file I use for encoding:

It appears that the <FrameRate></FrameRate> node
is only saved to the XML file if you choose something other than
"Same as source". However, it's always a non-standard value.
Evidently, if you are creating your own <FrameRate> value in
a custom XML setting file, you need to multiply the frame rate by
65536. For example, if you want 24 fps in the profile, your XML
should look like the code snippet below.

Flash CS3 Video Encoder: No preview

[note: I posted this earlier in the Flash Media Encoder forum
-- which I thought was the same product as the video encoder.
Apparently it is not! I did not see a forum specific to the video
encoder, so I'm posting here.]
Greetings.
I'm getting no video preview in the Flash CS3 Video Encoder
when attempting to adjust settings. I can scrub back and forth and
set cue points, but the entire video preview is black. I've tried
several source files encoded with several different Quicktime
codecs and in a few different formats including .mov and .mp4 -- no
difference. The source files play fine and actually encode just
fine with the encoder, but the lack of preview to adjust cropping
and other setting is non-optimal, to say the least.
Anyone else experiencing this? Any solutions?
Here's my setup:
-- PowerMac Dual-Core 2x2.66 GHz Intel Xeon
-- 30-inch Cinema Display
-- NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card
-- Mac OSX 10.5.2
-- Quicktime Pro 7.4.1
-- Most recent version of Flash CS3 Video Encoder

I to am having the same problem with the flash encoder. Added
a wmv file and a mov file to the queue and I get the same results.
I do however see the first frame of the movies. Cannot set in and
out points because the first frame displays while scrubbing.

Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo

Flash CS3 Video Encoder

I
When I use "Flash CS3 Video Encoder" I get a watermark that
says "created with flip4mac WMV demo". It Is not suppose to come
ready to be used with the flash version? No where says that I have
to buy a third part software.
Can somebody please tell me if do I have to buy "flip4mac" or
if I am doing something wrong?
Thanks!

Thanks for your help!
It works perfect with so many formats, the only problem is
that I can not add ".wmv" files. Is there any way to do it?
Thanks again!
