Flash quality is poor on live website.

When I preview my project in flash, and HTML (from flash cs4) everything looks fine. But when I put it on my website the quality becomes terrible.. All my mc's are jpegs. I tried boosting the jpeg quality in flash but then the frame rate speeds up and the quality is still bad Then I tried putting a PNG image to test it and its quality is terrible as well.. How can I get the same good quality on the actual website?

Are you positive that the embed dimensions are the same as your project? If the SWF is getting resized it could explain bad quality.
If this is not the case, can you post a screenshot of the good and bad, and also post a link where we can see it ourselves.

Flash is a poor quality software

Guys, after just short time (luckily) that I had to work with flash, during which time flash show what its capable of (not a positive thing), my thoughts on it.
Flash is extremely poor quality software. Incidents working with flash involved
1. thumb doesn't show up on slider when I click button once, but shows up when I click this same button twice. (code: thumb.visible=true), that all there was to it!!!
2. movie clips moved out of scene are showing on scene anyway
3. Simply copying the aforementioned slider and placing it on first frame on main scene brakes totally unrelated code somewhere else. But pasting the same slider on second frame doesn't brake that code anymore! Needless to say that slider has no code whatsoever so it couldn't possibly reference anything in my scene anyway!
What else? Yesterday I was happily working till lunch. Saved my work, went, had a lunch, came back, try to open my file, nope, not so fast flash tells me that this is incorrect format of a file!!! I couldn't believe what I'm seeing. I've never during my 15 years of working as a programmer came across software which couldn't open file saved by itself. Apparently, this is very common problem with flash: Re: I cannot open FLA files in CS5 "UNEXPECTED FILE FORMAT" help!
Luckily I've had save this file the day before so I've lost only half a day's work.
Another phenomena, during debugging flash goes through lines of code and at last line throws error that child mustn't be null, which is really bizarre because on previous lines I've had that child object and flash didn't complain at all:
child = new Item();//goes through this line
child.setUp("myChild");//goes through this line
addChild(child);//throws ERROR that child mustn't be null.
Another incident, two buttons identical class, all is different is text on them, one says play, the other one says settings. First button do not respond to mouse events, specifically to mouse_over event, second button behaves correctly. Situation got resolved that I've added another, dummy button and moved it out of stage. Now both original buttons behave correctly!!! How is this possible???
Another incident from before yestarday. Same slider. First frame, two copies of it. First one (top one) after publishing looks as it looks in editor, second looks completely different! parts are scaled up, far away from each other, total mess!!!WHY??? I simply put one slider from library and copied it once. Same frame, same slider, no code involved whatsoever and despite this flash messes things up.
Another incident with slider. The same slider copied from one frame to other. One works perfectly on one frame (that is you can drag the thumb and the thumb follows your mouse), paste EXACT!!! copy of this slider on different frame and the slider becomes unresponsive!!! Un effing bellievable!!!!
Oh, and one more thing, can this software and swfs produced by it be any slower and use more processor power?
There were also plenty of others smaller annoyances how flash behaves, or why doesn't behave correctly. I'm so glad that will not have to work with this software anymore. It is so bad. And it is Flash CC. Unbelievable.
So I suppose, my question is, why is flash so poor quality software, despite the fact that is on the market for so many years?

Are you serious?
Are you genuinely serious?
Are you really...
How can anyone think that this, out of box should compile? How?!?
The child isn't declared, Item class isn't defined, how can you think that this could/should compile? How?!!!
As I've said in one of my previous posts, this is simply snippet of my code with those problematic lines. And why I have problem with this is, again, as I've said previously flash does go through two lines with child variable, but throws error (during debugging) at the third line that child variable mustn't be null!!! while just before second didn't have any problems with referencing this variable, just one line previously.
And no Amy, you are wrong saying that I've nulled this variable somewhere.
If you look at the code (from one of my other posts):
//[begin of example]
//some function's body
child = new Head_mc(); //Head_mc is a movie clip
trace("child: " + child);//outputs some name of this child
child.setUp(aHead);//goes through this line fine while debugging
addChild(child);//GIVES ME ERROR TELLING ME THAT THAT child MUSTN'T BE SET TO NULL!!!!!!
if I change this code to:
//some function's body
var c:MovieClip = new Head_mc(); //Head_mc is a movie clip
c.setUp(aHead);//goes through this line fine while debugging
child = c;
addChild(child);//No problems, but why is it that this works and the first code doesn't work?
//[end of example]
you will see that the only function which could possibly nullify child variable is function setUp, yet this function is called in second example as well as in first and yet first example behaves incorrectly and second example works as expected. Why? What's different there?
Oh, and @sinious, please mate, give me a favor and don't try to compile it, because it is impossible to compile. But also please note that I mention that the debugger goes through some lines so it must mean that at some point I did compile it first and then started debugging. It does make sense, doesn't it?
As for working with complicated software/languages?
Guys, please don't make me laugh.
Maya, Catia, AutoCAD, 3DMax, Visual Studio, Blender, Photoshop, ZBrush, UDK, UE4, - (except Catia I work on weekly basis, every week of the year (except holidays and weekends that is) with each and everyone of those products), and of course as a language of choice I use C++. How do you think C++ compares with regarding difficulty, complexity, learning curve to as3 do you think?
Flash (and as3) is a relatively simple but buggy, poor quality and unreliable software. I can say that not because I cannot learn it. I can say that because I've worked with it and experienced it's poor quality and "bugyness" from day one. I also worked with other software in my life, I also do work every day of my life with other software (the above mentioned), and flash simply proves to be of poor quality.
None of the software I've mentioned couldn't open file it just wrote couple of minutes ago. With flash it happened. Not once now, but two times. And not just to me. Plenty of examples on the web. Guys, please, open your eyes. It didn't happen because I'm a bad/incompetent programmer. It happened because flash is a buggy, poor quality and unreliable software. And companies are ditching flash not because I say it is bad. They ditching it because through their own experience they realized that flash is a buggy, poor quality, poorly performing, unreliable software. That's all there is to it.
And as for self-congratulatory behavior of yours:
"Plenty of evidence is here to the contrary so, mission complete"
What mission did you achieve?
The one in which you proved to everyone that you don't understand that you cannot compile code snippet which is taken out of context?
What kind of programmer you are, it just makes me wonder...

Pearl 8220 camera image quality is poor, poor, poor

The photo image quality of the camera on my BB Pearl 8220 is extremely grainy and dark.
I understand this is a cell phone camera and expectations are low to begin with, but this is unacceptably low quality. The flash appears to function properly but that doesn't matter because the image quality is poor even for pictures taken in full sunlight.
Are there camera adjustments or settings that I haven't found that can remedy this problem? The ones I HAVE found have had no effect.
Thanks for any help.

i've taken some good pics with our phones...
I did notice that you need to be extremely steady (no built in "camera shake"), but other than that, its all been good.
I used the options to make the pics as large as possible too; but I do that with our digital camera as well. I use Paint Shop to edit them on our PC.
Where there is a will, there is a way...
If there is no way; there is always a bigger hammer.

How do I stream a live website from MacBook to Apple TV?

How do I stream a live website from MacBook to Apple TV?

If you have Mountain Lion, turn on AirPlay mirroring, then put Safari into Full Screen mode.

Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found

NOTE: This thread was started in the flash pro forum: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/898879?tstart=0 . However, because of adninjastrators recommandation, I open the thread here:
Hello there,
I have started a stream from Flash media encoder to flash media server. According to my encoder, it should be located at: "rtmp://localhost/live" and is called livestream.
In the Flash software I try and set the source of FLVPlayback component to "rtmp://localhost/live/livestream", and I get this error: "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound : Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found.". Both the server and encoder is runnind and I am encoding.
Too, when I try and open the html with the stream in a browser, nothing appears.
What should I check?
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Marius

Thanks for your reply.
Server, encoder and player are all on the same computer.
Admin console confirms the existence of "livestream" of type "Live" and a "NetStream" called "ABAF". No idea what the latter is.
Also, thought I'd mention that I have to start the servers from the Control Panel -> administrative tools -> services. If I try and start the server from the start menu, they dont start.
Thank you for your time.
Kind regards,
Marius

Why is the photo quality so poor since the iOS 7 upgrade?

My iPhone 4S took absolutely BEAUTIFUL pictures before the upgrade, and now they are just terrible. The quality is poor and before the upgrade my pictures were very detailed and crystal clear. I've tried different settings and lighting with very little improvement.

I have had the exact problem, but with both the Apple earbuds and Skull Candy earbuds. I have used the latter on my iPhone4 for months without any problems. I have long phone calls and this will happen 10 - 30 minutes into a call, but seems to happen more frequently as the calls continue. As you mentioned, if I pop into speaker mode and back out, the problem usually clears up. I returned my original 4s after experiencing this problem, but my new one had this problem immediately.

Has anyone managed to embed flash content within there responsive HTML5 website?

Has anyone managed to embed flash content within there responsive HTML5 website? I'm aiming to get my client gallery Flash based but don't want to sacrifice my responsive HTML5 layout to achieve this.
I feel the Flash gallery would be more secure than my current option,
Thanks in advance
Katie xx
http://www.katiegarcha.com

It dawned on me what the problem was, in my Actionscript, I am using a XML sheet to call the pictures in the gallery. The XML sheet is located in the same folder as the actionscript, but not in the same folder as the html page, hence the Flash working when it is directly called but not when it is somewhere else. Once this dawned on me, I remembered that I used "short" urls for the images thinking of them all being in the same folder as the actionscript, but not thinking about their relative link from the location of the HTML page. So, I believe that if I change the relative urls to fit the location of the HTML instead of the location of the SWF page, it should work.

How can i improve burning quality of dvd.looks fine in preview on idvd,but final burn quality is poor/

how can i improve burning quality of dvd.looks fine in preview on idvd,but final burn quality is poor.

Had same problem with iPhoto pictures and poor burn quality. Went back to original picture file and dragged images into idvd project from there. Set encoding at professional quality and burned at slowest speed. Got very good result with high quality slideshow when played on TV.
Also tried Old Toad's Aug 30, 2011 advice to get a slideshow into iDVD with transitions, music, etc. from iPhoto.
Again the quaility of the burned CD was very good.

Satellite A350 - webcam quality is poor

Inbuilt webcam quality is poor (a350)
Is this normal for this computer?
Is even worse and switches to black screen only bright light shown at night on Skype.

Hi
The image quality could not be the best because of the dark room where you are using the webcam.
You should increase the brightness in the room and should set the webcam settings to night mode!
Check this Toshiba document:

Not sure what changes you made so this is a wild guessing game.
This may be a browser cache issue - have you refreshed your browser or viewed the page in a different browser?

Can anyone explain why all of my Spry Assets on a live website have suddenly stopped working?

Can anyone explain why all of my Spry Assets on a live website have stopped responding? I have checked that the Spry CSS and JS files are in place. Then checked the files on Dreamweavers live view and they are not working there either. It was fine a few weeks ago, it is almost as if the web browsers have stopped rending Spry, for example, the links for the collapsible panels are not even being recognised as links.
I am using 'old' spry assets on Dreamweaver CS4 (if that makes a difference). The Spry Assets used are Tabbed Panels and Collapsible Panels.
Thanks for your help.

Something has been going on, when I look at the bottom of your document (as pasted below), this is normally all at the top after the links to external style sheets.

Office Live Website Domain Name Transfer?

I currently have a Office Live website with a .co.uk domain name - is there a way to create and host the same domain name with Apple once my Office Live account expires?
And yes I'm a technophobe!

To use your domainname with MobileMe you must [enable Personal Domain at MobileMe|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=MobileMe/Account/en/acct1 7114.html] and set your CNAME to web.me.com where you have registered your domainname.
Pick your own subdomain (www is a subdomain).
It's not an iWeb issue, since iWeb is not involved. [Forum : MobileMe iWeb and Personal Domain|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1163]
Read my article how I manage my domainname : http://www.wyodor.net/Domain/
I currently have these subdomains:
http://www.wyodor.net/ (at MobileMe using A Record)
http://me.wyodor.net/ (at MobileMe using CNAME)
http://google.wyodor.net/ (at Google using A Record)
http://wyodor.net/ (at MS Office Live using A Record)
Other subdomains default to my Personal Webserver on my computer at home.
Note that you cannot use iWeb, or any custom webpage, at Google or MS Office Live. They're all webbased.

Viewing/Editing a live website's code in DWCS4?

Hi,
I would like to open live websites in DW and edit/preview the code.
What is the best way to do this?
Thanks very much.
Ty

Hi mhollis55 ,
Thanks for your reply.
I'm unable to select the "Get" option. It is not highlighted like the rest of the available options.
What if I do not have the login information for a site I'd like to open within DW?
I'm basically trying to use DW as a "super advanced text editor", so I can view/edit my code much more faster and efficiently.
Thanks for your help.

Why does say"To play the selected item, you must install a later version of the Adobe Flash Player. To download the Adobe Flash Player, go to the Adobe website." when I have the latest Version of it and it's just Black screen with no audio and Video?

You asked your question on the wrong forum. Try one for the Flash Player
