Flash Lite - Automatic playback of SWF-files within MMS

Dear flash communty,
I've the problem that SWF-files doesn't play automatically when I open the MMS I received. I tried to solve the problem with SMIL files, but it seams that the Flash Lite player doesn't support these scripts. Does anyone of you know anything else to solve the problem? Is there another way to implement this feature?
Greetings,
Noctem

We have been working with one of our customers on delivering
an on line sales tool using the Adobe Connect environment. They for
the usual legal reasons wished to use a sales aid they had already
created. This was a flash based CD-rom with various flash movies
initiated by rollovers and buttons.
But there was two problems:
1. The index would not work i.e. the menu page appeared but
the subsequent movies and animations could not be found
2. The click throughs and rollovers would not synchronizes,
i.e. if the presenter moved forward through the presentation the
participants did not.
Both of these obviously make it useless.
After over three weeks of R&D we (David Kwaw , Steve
Grovenor and J ) have developed a bespoke piece of programing,
based on Sync SWF
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobatconnect/articles/basic_syncswf_pt1.html
That solves this issue, we have since refined the coding so
that ONLY the presenter has control of the flash presentation,
making it more like Adobe Presenter just ALOT more flexible and
better looking.
If you would like to know more... just drop us a line.

Flash SWF file within Swing JFrame

I was wondering whether its possible to open a Flash swf file within a JFrame
I am looking for a solution similar to the usage of Flash Activex control in .NET
thanks in advance
Vikas

I have read the forum link and other such entries in this forum. I have found the following:
1.) JFlash - a java based flash player. https://jflash.dev.java.net/
Could'nt find the app or the official site
2.) a few projects on sourceforge.org :
java flash bridge where you embed the flash inside an Integrated Browser Component
3.) SWT Flash integration.
I do not find any of these solutions satisfactory.except the SWT/Flash integration which I havent tried.
My question is that isnt there an easier and simpler way to :
Embed Flash into Swing app where actionscript and java can communicate.
I am aware of Remoting and web services. But It is a desktop app I am talking about.
Can anyone suggest anything?
thanks in advance..

Launching SWF file within the project - Video Avatar and Calculator

Hi There, I am somewhat new to Captivate so please bear with me. I am using Captivate 6.0 and have basic coding knowledge. I have a question about how to launch SWF files within my project. There are 2 things I am trying to accomplish.
1. I have a video avatar that I want to use within my project. When a user clicks an icon or button on certain screens I want the appropriate video to launch within the same window. My video is an swf file but it can be another file type if that is better. Is this something that I can accomplish with Captivate 6.0?
2. I have built a basic flash calculator - also an swf file - that I want the user to be able to launch on certain screens. When the user clicks a calculator button, the calculator would launch for the user to use, then the user would be able to close the calculator and return to the screen they were on.
Could someone direct me to some resources on how to accomplish this? If there are any widgets that would make this easier that would be great - but if I need to write some code I can try and do this if someone can direct down the right road. I have spent hours looking for information on this topic but can't find any (at least any that I understand)
Please, and thank you!!!

Rory,
Your Video is 720 x 480 @ 1.212 PAR, according to your screen-cap. In Photoshop (PS), go to Image New (Ctrl+N) and choose the NTSC 720 x 480 Widescreen 16:9 PAR 1.2. Once done, choose Image>PAR and Custiom, change 1.2 to 1.212 (this was a change in PrPro, and might not have yet made it into PS yet). Now, Open your full rez image. Ctrl+A (Select All), Ctrl+C (Copy), and then bring focus to your New Image. Hold Shift and Ctrl+V (Paste). This will put your image on a New Layer, Layer 1, in an Image with the correct dimensions and PAR. You can the Ctrl+T (Free Transform) and adjust the size of your Layer 1 image to suit. Holding down Shift while dragging the Handles of the Bounding Box will constrain the Aspect Ratio. Note, you might be cropping some of that image to fit the Aspect Ratio of your New Image. Anything outside of the Image boundries will effectly be cropped off. Note: you are NOT using the Crop Tool here, but letting the New Image Aspect Ratio effectively do the cropping (note no capitalization) for you. When satisfied with the result, you Delete the Background Layer (not necessary, but I do this to clean things up a bit), and Save_As .PSD to the proper folder.
With Scale to Fit turned OFF, Import_As Footage, this image and drag to the Timeline, making sure that Scale to Fit is OFF. It should be perfect then. Hope that this works for you and gets rid of the problem.
Good luck,
Hunt

HT5271 Downloaded latest Apple updates that informed me old versions of Adobe Flash Player were disabled and advised me to go to Adobe and down load latest version of Flash Player. Did that, but Flash Player won't play swf files, which it did before.

Downloaded latest Safari update that informed me that older versions of Adobe Flash Player were being disabled and then advised me to go to Adobe and down load latest version of Flash Player. Did that, but Flash Player won't play swf files, which it did before. (Instead of opening, it comes up as a page of code).

Hi..
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Delete All
Now select the Storage tab.
Click Delete All
Relaunch Safari to test.

Flash Media Playback configurator swf file size

Hello,
I just start using the Flash Media Playback configurator : http://www.osmf.org/configurator/fmp/ and I am very surprised that the size of the swf file is less than 2KB. The swf file used is http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf
How did you compile it to make it so small ? It is based on OSMF ?
Usually the swf file's size of a flash video player based on OSMF seems to be greater. For example the swf file used on page http://www.osmf.org/ (http://www.osmf.org/strobe1_0/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf) is about 193KB or on page http://osmf.org/dev/1.6gm/setup.html (http://osmf.org/dev/1.6gm/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf) is about 422KB.
Thanks in advance.
Thomas

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply Gelu. I emptied the cache of my web browser and had a look at all http requests (with Charles proxy and Firebug) sent when loading the page http://www.osmf.org/configurator/fmp/. The only .swf loaded I can see is http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf.
Is there another cache involved ?
Thanks,
Thomas

How to automate saving single swf files?

Right off the bat.... I'm a newbie...it will be obvious I'm sure. This is what I'm doing....
01. I take a PowerPoint slide show and convert it to an .emf (MetaData) PowerPoint show in power point.
          ( an aside...I have used enhance MetaData and regular MetaData and haven't noticed any difference. No biggie I guess)
02. I then load the Flash CS4 stage with the .emf PowerPoint slide show.
03. Do some clean-up.
04 I then must save individual .swf files of the timeline. ( I notice there doesn't seem to be a key board stroke for Export Image... that seems weird)
05. I do all the mouse clicks and save the .swf's in a folder. For 80 or more slide per show this is very tedious I must say. Clicking, numbering, saving, advanceing, clicking, numbering saving...etc. I typically end up with a folder with ...Slide_01, Slide_02, Slide_03 etc. which is what I want.
What is the best way to automate this process? I'm not a programmer, but is a Macro program what I need. Or is there a way in Flash to simplify this process     ..of course I'm not a programmer.
Thanks!

1. You can customize the keyboard shortcuts in Flash.
     - Go to Edit/Keyboard Shortcuts
     - When the dialog opens, you must duplicate the set by clicking the left-most button next to the Current Set drop-down (the tool-tip displays "Duplicate Set" when you hold the mouse over it for a second)
     - Navigate the tree into File/Export
     - Select the Export Image node
     - Click the "+" button in the Shortcuts area
     - Hit the key combination you want to use for this
     - Click the "Change" button
     - Resolve any conflicts the shortcut you set creates
     - Click OK
2. Is there a reason you are exporting each slide as a SWF? Why not an image format, like JPG, PNG, or GIF?

Open 2 Web Browser and play a .swf File within each

Hello,
we are trying to implement a Screen Recording Functionality
under Linux.
The Recording will be done by vnc2swf. Then we have a .swf
File with the Video.
Now I want to play Back the recording within a Web Browser.
That's shoudnt be the problem till now. But the difficult
thing is that we have 2 Monitors connected to the Linux PC with
their own display connection, therefore we get 2 .swf File each for
each Screen.
No I want to play back these two .swf Files each in one Web
Browser on each Screen.
Is this possible by programming this with Action Script 2/3 ?
Thanks Richard

When I go here, I can see the slide show fine.

Flash CS6 cant open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?

Flash CS6 can't open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
I'm just trying to preview an swf file in flash like I have with all previous versions.

What if my SWF loads external content from an online server?
Not only does the current flash player prohibit such activity, it doesn't even pop open an error anymore saying there was an error connecting to an online source.
Normally, I would simply drag the SWF into Flash and all connections would go through. I could see traces, errors, and experience no issues.
Now I can't even do that. So what then? You have crippled a fundamental use of the program, but THANK GOD we have that deco brush that nobody asked for.
And for the record, the nature of my work benefits from not necessarily allowing the Flash Player to connect to online content. The error it pops up? That's simply another method of error checking that I require. Updating the Flash Player options is not an option.
Why would you even remove this key feature from Flash anyways? It's been there for years ... has the ratio of people importing SWFs (a rather useless gesture in an increasing OOP world) really outweighed the people using Flash as a testing environment that much?

How to load swf files within another SWF and still maintain actionscript

Hi I was wondering how to embed an swf file inside another
swf file, If i simply import it to the stage or the library it will
become a symbol but the actionscript interactivity is lost, another
question is can I have an actionscript 2 file play within an
actionscript 3 file?
The actionscript 2 code for embedding is something like this:
don't mind the _mc titles
this.cargame_mc.onRelease = function (){
loadMovie ("Crusty Rusty's.swf", empty_mc)
empty_mc._xscale=60;
empty_mc._yscale=55;
empty_mc._x=210;
empty_mc._y=140;
Please Help its for my uni portfolio, i want to use as2, but
if i do i would lose the 3d possibility of as3, is there any way to
export an as3 file and then embed in as2, using a program or
anything? Thanks!I
I would just like to say thanks in advance because everyone
on here is so helpful!

you can load an as2 file into an as3 file (using the loader
class) and the actionscript will work in both.

Flash player_need to watch an swf file

Hello All,
I know very little about flash. A client just sent me a flash
file (swf) they want me to look at as a reference. I've installed
the latest flash player. When double click on the swf file, I get
an error that this file format isn't supported. Anyone know if
there is a way to see this file?
Thank you!

HI
You need the SA Flash Player.
Download an evaluation copy of Jugglor then go to
:\Program Files\FlashJester\Jugglor v30\Projector Files
and click
CS3FlashPlayer.exe
this has now set the player to play any SWF file,
So now click on a SWF file and now it will work.
Enjoy

How to call swf file within another swf file using xml

hii,
I am facing some problem to call a swf file via xml when this xml file loaded it calls another swf file which includes a new xml file. now if i call this nested swf calling without xml it works but in case case of xml it is not showing the result. i m confused. how to nested xml file calling done in as2/as3. i need some logics. thanks in advance

This is the AS3 forum and your posting involves AS2 code. You should repost in the AS2 forum...
http://forums.adobe.com/community/flash/flash_actionscript
Aside from that, your problem might lie in the following lines...
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("sub_container1", 1);
loadMovie(sub_SWFPath[1].attributes.url, "sub_container1");
You create the new movieclip, sub_container1, in the _root, but you do not assign the loadMovie to load into that same movieclip (unless you have a _lockroot = true assigned in your sub-swf). In any case, you should repost in the AS2 forum to pursue resolution.

Loading and modifying a SWF file within an AIR application

I bet you get this question a lot, but I was wondering, if possible, anyone knows how to edit and save the changes to a SWF file loaded inside an AIR application?
Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry, but I happen to digress greatly with Michael's approach. I started using AIR just yesterday ( 3 hours or so ), and I firmly believe in reinventing the wheel as a strong method of learning. Just to be clear, I do this on my own free time, so I have no need to worry about COGs, after all, I'm just learning. Otherwise, though it's a strong and great response if I were to build a somewhat bigger application, it's way too much more than the original scope of the application. It's like using a bazooka to kill ants . Regarding the scope of the application, it should support loading / writing of SWFs, and editing of XMLs for certain pre-defined entities. As I stated already, I am certain that I'd be able to do this in a very short span of time with another approach (more xmls, embedding assets directly to the SWF that loads the edited swf, etc.) It's more of a challenge to myself than anything else . I'm really grateful for all your help, so if you want, I can keep you up to date on how I deal with the issue.
