Flash Pro CC - Converting/Exporting to an MP4

I need my flash video to be an MP4. I went through the process of exporting it as an MOV from Flash Pro CC. When I place this file in the Adobe Media Encoder and try to convert it, the preview at the bottom of the shows a black screen. Encoder says that the conversion is complete but when I try to play it using VLC media player, it is just a black screen with no content.
I am looking for advise as to whether I did something incorrectly or if there is a simpler/faster way to get my Flash video file to be an MP4.

If your mov file is uncompressed and is very large then you may be running out of memory and/or hard drive space for Media Encoder to do its magic. Open the Preferences window for Media Encoder and go to the Media section. There are two locations listed in this section where ME will be storing data. Make sure that there is enough space at these locations. Open the Memory section and make sure that there is sufficient memory available for ME to run.
No, I don't really know how much memory or hard drive space you will need. If you have little hard drive space then you amy need to use an external dirve or move to a different computer.

Flash Pro CS5 Convert to Flex Component and SWC export

Hi,
my question is about the Flash Pro CS5 and Flash Builder 4 (Flex 4) integration.
My goal is simple - to make a simple graphic in a MovieClip and then export that for use in Flash Builder 4. I found out I have 2 ways of doing that:
1) -> create the MovieClip with the graphic
    -> export it for ActionScript with a name of the class
    -> select the symbol in the library again and export SWC file. Total size of this SWC in my example is 24kb.
    -> put the SWC in the libs folder and use the class/component which should be put inside SpriteVisualContainer or UIMovieClip
2) -> create the MovieClip with the graphic
    -> export it for ActionScript with a name of the class
    -> select it in the libraly and then select Commands -> Convert Symbol to Flex Component
Now here we can do 2 things:
    -> select the symbol in the library and export SWC file. Total size here is 104kb.
    -> publish the whole project and use its SWC file.
And last:
    -> put the SWC in the libs folder and use the class/component wherever you want because it's already extending UIMovieClip.
So My point is that with the first way I need to use just one simple container to put my component into and I save like 80 kb. Why would I want to use the second way, just to be more comfortable or there are other reasons too?
I was thinking that maybe I could put more flex converted components in the fla file so I would then export the swc with all of them being already flex components and that 80kb will be shared for all of them, which makes sense of using this feature, but if someone could confirm my thinking is right or there was some other better purpose or way of doing things in an optimised way, I will be glad to hear them. Thanks!

Hi,
I am using the first option while converting from flash to flex. Its easy and it saves lots of memory.

Closed captioning with Premiere Pro CS5.5, exported to wmv/mp4

My employer suddenly has a push to be ADA compliant, so all videos going forward need to have captioning, and would prefer to have it closed captioned. I've read that you can add captions with Encore and output them to disc, but since all of the videos are posted online, nothing is burned to disc so that doesn't help. I also know you can use scc or mcc files to add closed captions to a broadcast stream, but since these aren't for broadcast, that doesn't help either.
All of this means is that I need to add closed captioning to online video only. What I'd like to know is this: Is there any way to add closed captioning to video that will be streamed online? Or, am I doomed to putting everything into lower thirds?
I'm using Premiere Pro CS5.5 (I also have AE CS5.5).
Thanks

As a broadcast engineer, I would suspect, and it would make sense that online video files would also be encoded with EIA-608 and EIA-708 set forth by the Electronic Industries Alliance and monitored by the FCC ( Broadcast Standard ). This makes sense to me as all existing video programs which already comply with the EIA-608 and 708 standards would then, automatically play closed captioning when encoded to a video file for playback.
The FCC has recently required all online video to include Closed Captioning as per the Accessibility Act of 2010 ( FCC: MB Docket No. 11-154) Subpart 6 of this document appears to define that all devices which may playback video through the internet, must be able to support the CEA-708, or closed captioning for digital broadcast television. CEA-708 is a form of embedded data often referred to as metadata which is contained within the MPEG-2 stream.
Not to get too technical about MPEG streams, but in essence, even though your end up with a single file, there are traditionally 3 elementary streams of data contained within. Each one has a PID, or Program Identifier number which identifies the Video Stream, Audio 1 stream and Audio 2 Stream. Additional elementary streams can be added such as a data stream containing Closed Captioning- or whatever like Dolby Digital. The PID allows a Demultiplexer to split the streams appropriately for playback.
I would hope there is a program out there that would embed the scc or mcc file ( however they are produced ) possibly after you export the sequence to a file. One of my favoite and best kept secret long-term video websites out there is videohelp DOT com. there is a plethera of kewl software to do all weird things to video, maybe even add CC!
All this still doesn't help us with Premiere Pro though...

Flash Pro CC - missing export feature & dropshadows

Hi everyone,
recently started a new job and received Cloud membership for all new Adobe products.
I primarily use Flash to create visuals for exporting as png's or into illustrator. I still haven't found a drawing tool for sequential imagery or UI guides that suits me better. So... two annoyances I've noticed straight off :-
-Can anyone give me a workaround to the missing ability to export images as an fxg
-why I can't change the angle or distance on Dropshadows now? Otherwise I'll have to find someway to go back to Flash 5.5.
Thanks!

Thanks - I'll try that.
As for your own question. Simply put, illustrator just doesn't have the layers, timeline and animation features I use for all my complex UI layouts, states and interactive multimedia. I also find it a bit clunky and unintuitive in comparison to Flash for Vector drawing.
If I was doing one state vector illustrations for print...perhaps. I need to do a lot more than that.
Shame about the fxg though. It was the best way to export to illustrator for print AND multimedia.

Flash Pro CS6 - Exporting Sprite Sheet With EaselJS JSON Data

Hi,
I've imported a png sequence into Flash Pro and have been trying to get the new sprite sheet generation feature to export JSON data in EaselJS format, but when I choose the EaselJS option from the dropdown menu, I only get a window function:
(function(window) {
}(window));
However, when I export as JSON, I do get proper JSON data. Is this a known issue with EaselJS support in CS6, or should I be doing something differently? I'd rather not use Zoe, the SWF to EaselJS AIR utility, because the pngs are fairly large and Zoe seems to have a maximum dimention cap for exporting sprite sheets, I get 12 of them whereas Flash Pro is able to auto detect dimentions, exporting one sprite sheet, which is great, I just need to get it to generate the EaselJS data along with it. Thanks in advance!

Thanks, I was just about to convert the JSON file myself, then I read your reply, tried it and viola. Do you happen to know why EaselJS can only read symbols, even if I labeled my frames?

Flash Pro Exporting Issues

Hello everyone. I recently have been working on a Flash animation. Throughout the making of this animation Flash has been failing, getting "unknown errors," and just plain corrupting some of my files. Now I understand that a 200MB is a rather large animation. But anyway's I have been constantly duplicating my .fla's because of just how unreliable Flash seems to be acting when it comes to this. Finally I decided enough is enough and tried to export it. Heck, I was just going to split the animation into 2 parts if it makes Flash happy and saves my hard work from corruption. I finally found one of the backup files that is moderately new. However upon attempting to export as a QuickTime it reads
"The export failed because the operation ran out of memory."
I have tried everything to get this to work. It should work! And it shouldn't be this difficult. I'm hearing stuff about how Flash apparently fails when it comes to exporting 1920 x 1080. Is this true? In that forum I read somebody said Adobe was working on fixing it. That forum has been up since around last summer. Has anybody found a solution to this issue? I just want what I've worked very hard on to work. Please help.
(P.S. I'm on a Mac, and this is Flash Pro CS6)

My recommendation is to bypass the QT movie export completely and use one of these effective workarounds. If you were to get an export to succeed, you'd find that the framerate is completely whacked and you can't use it effectively in any non-linear editing environment. QuickTime is not a stable export movie format ever since Adobe bought Flash. I'm an animation filmmaker, and this is a workaround that I and my professional friends use:
OPTION 1:
1) export an image sequence using the PNG format, no compression, best quality. Give yourself a short frame name with an underscore after it, like "myfile_.png"
2) take the sequence of PNGs and do either one of these options:
a - use QuickTime Pro to import image sequence. Open your audio file with QT, it createsit's own file, then copy it, and then use QT manager to add it in to your video file. EXPORT a new QT using PNG compression (or other). Close/do not save this initial compiled edit. Your exported fil is the final and useable one, and is frame stable. Done.
b - import your PNG sequence into any non-linear editor, having set it's internal preferences to import stills so they last only 1 frame each. Most, like FCP or Premiere, you can also import as a media sequence or "footage" but that pre-applies a supposed FPS rate when imported. Again, you can now compile a video/audio edit and then export.
OPTION 2:
1) use SWIVEL, a free app that converts SWF files into movies, including QuickTime.
2) publish an SWF without any compression/jpg high quality /audio included
3) import into Swivel.
4) set video qualities. Codec should be QuickTime ANIMATION
5) set audio qualities
6) Export, done.
Hope this helps!

I need an app for my Mac Pro to convert MP4 to MOV format to play in a DVD player

I need an app for my Mac Book Pro to convert MP4 to MOV format to play in a DVD player. Thanks

Quicktime can do this.
Open the MP4 in Quicktime Player. From the menu bar, File >Export > select quality. The subsequent file will be saved as .mov
Alternatively, you can simply change the extension on the mp4 file to mov since the codec is the same.
*I should mention that .mov format is not DVD format (TS_VIDEO), and the DVD will not play in a DVD player, even if you successfully burn the file to it.

Missing content exporting from InDesign CC 2014 to Flash Pro CC 2014

Dear all,
to produce a larger number of similar animated swf's, I wanted to create all necessary text and graphic layers in InDesign CC 2014, then export as *.fla to Flash Pro CC 2014 for "bulk" animation.
Finally it should then just be a case of selecting the correct layers and publishing.
The problem: When exporting from InDesign to Flash, all layers are recognized but initially apart from the text layers they were shown as empty items without the content.
Rescaling the placed images in InDesign to be no larger than the final document helped to now also have the images when opening the exported *.fla in Flash.
I am still missing all other InDesign objects though, e.g. even a simple colored rectangular will not show in Flash.
Any help to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated. Searching for it only brought up a couple of tutorials that do not seem to have this issue.
Best regards
Christopher

I think that it's just a bug in InDesign. It happens with CS6 as well.

Flash Builder flash pro project doesnt show code hintings for library assets exported for AS ?

Flash Builder flash pro project doesnt show code hintings for library classes exported for AS ? So is there any way I can fix this ? Only way I could think of is export a swc from the fla... is there a more convenient way to do this ?

anyone ?

Using Premiere Pro CS3 When exporting as flash file poor picture quality

I'm using Premiere Pro CS3. I shoot green screen in HDV and work in 1440 x 1080. I have been capturing files in Premiere and sending them to Serious Magic Ulta 2. I use this program for keying and adding virtual backgrounds. I save these files as avi. with a resolution of 1440 X 1080. I then bring them back into Premiere Pro for final edit. When I export these video's encoded as mpeg2 theyplay very clear. I am now trying to export as flv. with alpha channel background and the resolution is poor. I working on the transparent background with walk on spokespersons that overlay the HTML page. When In try to play them on my computer the adobe media player is what comes up. I have downloaded flash player but it doesn't select it to play the video. I'm running windows Vista Business platform. What am I doing wrong.

Thanks for the reply.
The capture and editing have already been done in 1440 X 1080. Should I use this resolution rather than trying to bump it up to 1920 X 1080.
Thanks

Computer playback generally prefers square pixels. Make sure to set your output resolution to 1920 x 1080 using a Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR) of 1.0 or Square.
See if that helps.

New Projector Exporter for Flash Pro CC (cross platform)

Hi All,
We have a new cross platform Projector Exporter for Flash Pro CC available as an extension at the below location:
[http://nipunasthana.wordpress.com/projectorforflashcc/]
Thanks,
Nipun Asthana
Flash Professional Team

Projector Exporter has now officially been included with the new Flash Pro CC 2014 release!

Please bring back FXG 2.0 export for Flash Pro CC 2014

Hi Adobe,
Flash Pro CC now supports SVG 1.1 export, please bring back FXG 2.0 export as well, here is the reason why:
Flash Pro CC can mainly export to Flash Runtime Based Content and HTML/JS Based Content, right?
For HTML/JS Based Content, we can export SVG for use.
For Flash Runtime Based Content, we should export FXG for use, it makes perfect sense!
Anyone seeing this thread, please reply +1 to agree what I said.

Hello 周戈,
first, the most here are users of Adobe's products, not Adobe's employees, ok sometimes someone of Adobe's staff risks a glimpse here at random.
One way, which may prove promising to interest Adobe's development team is to use the "wishform" and maybe your "please bring back ..." can serve as a suggestion. Here at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform, where you will find this: "Use this form to request new features or suggest modifications to existing features."
Good luck!
