thumbnails and did not want to increase the space marked out for
the
thumbnails.. and Instead wanted to have a new set of images
load, jus like in a picture gallery when we click on more... What
would I do?? The ability to have next and prev to load the
thumbnails is what I am tryin to achieve. I have gone through all
of the .as files.. but how to I integrate this feature??

ActionScript 3.0 Flash video gallery Tweak

Hi,
Is there a way to remove the 2nd filter option on the
ActionScript 3.0 Flash video gallery ?
Sadly our coding guru is away on holiday and we need to try
and find a solution asap.
(commenting section out etc just makes it fall over)
Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
Andrew

To do it in AS2 you need just install the remoting classes again. You can either copy them fro your old install or get them:
http://drupal.org/node/258605
Scroll down a bit and you'll see a link to the as2 remoting classes: Remoting_FlashCS3.zip
In AS3 there are a few ways. Some people have made classes for it, or you can use the built in methods of NetConnection. Here's a couple examples of that:

Flash Video Gallery – link to specific video upon launch

I saw this question asked before when first doing a search on
this topic, but have yet to see any replies, let alone any that
work.
How can I link from within a web page to a specific video
that is contained within a modified version of
Adobe's
Flash video Gallery tutorial?
When a user clicks on a link that says "View Dr. Jones
Lecture", I want the Flash Video Gallery to launch with Dr. Jones'
video loading and playing immediately. As it stands now, the video
player just wants to wait until someone locates and then clicks on
the video of their choice WITHIN the video player itself. That is
fine if a generic "Launch our Video Gallery" link is clicked, but
not if the user is expecting a specific video to play.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Cheers!

I normally don't like "bumping," but I am still looking for a
solution to this problem. Thank you in advance.

Flash Video Gallery Problem

Hi All
I am developing a video Gallery in AS 3.0.
* I am providing thumbnails and XML is loading external FLvs
in those thumbnails .
* The user can either double click or click and drag
thumbnail to play the main video above the particular line.
* I am calling external SWFs in the UIloader component for
playing the main video. That UIloader will be called when the user
either double clicks on thumbnail or click and drag the thumbnail.
* Also user can drag the main video wherever he wants, and
he can drop the main back to the thumbnails too( which will unload
the video player).
My problem is that everything is working fine when i run the FLA
file, but when i closed my application and try to run the
individual SWF file, the file does not work ( its just
crashing).
There are no frames I am using so that's for sure that i did
not forget to put stop frame.
All of my code is in the main time line and I haven't used
any custom classes yet, which means everything is in the actions
window.
Am i using the right tool for such a big application? Should I
switch to FLEX for compiling this file. i am not that familiar with
FLEX working environment too.
Please help me out what i am doing wrong and i apologize that
I could not mail you the code because the file is very very big.
Also if any better tool is available for this please let me
know.
Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot
Anuj

Interesting problem.
I thought initially that this could be easily solved with Action Sequences on the imported SWF file. Action Sequences will control the visibility, play(), stop() and go to frame, it doesn't stop the audio that has already started playing in the imported SWF.
I worked around this by
placing an empty frame "0" in my Flash .fla with SoundMixer.stopAll(); in the ActionScript - then reoutput the SWF
Imported the SWF and then set an ActionSequence to go to Frame 0 and Stop when I exited the state where I wanted my SWF playing
Also set an ActionSequence to go to Frame 0 and Play when I wanted my SWF to start playing again
See the source .fla and .fxp here: TestingSwfSoundStopStart.zip
Best wishes,
Tanya

Video Gallery Action Script 3

I am creating a video gallery off of the demo action script
3, video gallery, that is shown on this site. I have updated the
XML file that contains the link to the thumbnails and videos to the
appropriate url. When I test the project out, I get the following
error:
TypeError: Error #1085: The element type "video" must be
terminated by the matching end-tag "</video>".

I am fairly new to Action Scripts and would really appreciate
overcoming this hurdle.
Thanks

1st. If you haven't already, get a nice xml editor such as
http://www.wmhelp.com/download.htm
free xmlpad editor for windows. Why? because it supports
editing the
dating in 3 different ways: Source <which has syntax/tag
hilighting ,
Grid , Table.. the grid is easiest to use and helps avoid
deleting tags
by mistake, which is what it sounds like you did based on the
error
message. If the above was a straight cut and paste of your
xml file then
you are missing
the </videos> tag that belongs between
</video> and </flashvideogallery>
I have personally spent the last week playing with the
example and
modifying it to have a scrollbar so that i can show more than
36 videos,
and have edited the xml files to add more entries.

AS 3.0 Video Gallery adaptation

I'm creating a site which utilizes an adaptation of Dan
Carr's Flash Video Gallery (AS 3.0). And it functions properly when
I test it locally on my machine, but once I upload it to our server
it doesn't load the video galleries. ...well, it appears to load
the galleries, because it goes to the second frame of the Flash
Video Gallery SWF where the video application is, but it won't load
my thumbnails or video and the loader stays on screen.
The site consists of:
1- main SWF that is my interface
1 - dynamically loaded SWF digital clock (uses AS 2.0)
4 - dynamically loaded SWFs that are each separate instances
of the Flash Video Gallery
Like I said it works fine when testing it locally, but it
doesn't seem to work online.
The file structure remains the same on the server as it was
on my local machine, so I don't think it's a problem of finding
files and I don't receive any errors when testing.
Any help would be great.
The other problem that I'm having is that when I test the
application locally the fullscreen button on my videos won't work.
Is this because it is a dynamicaly loaded SWF nested into the main
SWF? If I load the Gallery SWF into it's own browser by itself the
fullscreen function works fine, but not when it's loaded into my
main SWF.
Can somebody help with this as well?
Thanks,
Matt

I had the same problem. Dan Carr was kind enough to send a
reply. Here it is:
quote:
Getting stuck on the loading screen is a symptom that may
happen for a number of reasons.
The loading screen sits above the gallery and obscures the
screen while the thumbnails and screen assets are loading. The
loading screen stays in place until all the video thumbnails have
loaded - so what you're seeing is an issue where 1 or more of your
videos isn't loading.
Most commonly this is because the server isn't recognizing
the FLV mime type or one or more videos didn't get uploaded to the
path listed in the XMLfile. (Actually, the first time I saw
something like this it was because there were spaces in the video
file names - local playback worked as expected, but my server was
URL-encoding the file names which replaced the spaces with
different characters and broke the expected paths...)
I'd recommend that you do the following... In the FLA file,
select the white rectangle graphic on the "Preloading" layer and
make it invisible by turning its alpha to 0. This will allow you to
see which videos are not loading on the server. If none of the
videos load, this would hint that either the server isn't seeing
the FLV mime type, the XML file isn't loading, or there is a global
problem with file naming. (If you see all the labels on the
filters, you know the XML file loaded.) If most of the videos are
loading, look for the specific problem videos and check to see that
the naming is correct and that the files were uploaded to the
correct location.
My own issue, as Dan suggested, was that FLV wasn't
registered on the server.
Hope this helps others.

Create FLV Video Gallery In Dreamweaver?

Hi and thanks in advance to those who can offer some advice.
I'd like to create a Flash Video Gallery with thumbnails that link to video and play on the page. Only one video screen. Something like Youtube.
I'm new to Dreamweaver and have built everything else for the site and the portfolio is the last page where I need to have the video gallery.
Any tutorials and direction is appreciated.
Again, I'd like to have one page with thumbnails that plays the video on the page in one window, not multiple windows.
Thanks!

Wimpy Rave is absolutely perfect for this type of video gallery. One media player can handle all your video and audio files seemlessly from a playlist.
See Examples, Rave Video Playlist.

Removing menu from Flash video in Dreamweaver

I have used the Flash Encoder to convert some videos to FLA.
I am now using Dreamweaver, "Insert->Flash Video", to add a FLA
file to a web page. I got the video in fine and it plays on the
page just fine. I would like to remove the menu from the video, but
there is not an option in properties to select "none" for the flash
video menu. I also tried changing the attirbute
"&skinName=SteelExternalNoVol" to "&skinName=none" and that
made the flash video not show up.
I would also like to loop the video and that option is not
available in the Dreamweaver menu.

Could someone tell me if I should be able to add parameters

but when I used it nothing changed on playback.

I have left the question in the Flash forum for almost a

I am posting it back in Dreamweaver to see if someone has any
ideas. Right now I just would like to loop the video. I found a
small menu that is not too obstructive.

Newbie Flash integration question, for video gallery

Well I'm a video editor not a web designer, but I get the basic concepts. Am using Dreamweaver CS4 and Flash CS3 and I have my head around CSS based design and have also managed to get my head around designing an interactive video gallery in Flash.
I want a HTML based site for web search indexing reasons but I need a video gallery that is broken up into sections, (eg. corporate, public sector, Arts... you get the idea). If I design a standard web site with navigation bars, do I include three or more categories (e.g., corporate etc) on the main site navigation bar and incorporate separate flash files on each page to show the relevant content for that category or do I include just a general video button on the web site's navigation bar and then navigate to the individual categories within the Flash movie file itself. The later seems the most logical, but do you experienced web designers find that adding another layer of navigation confuses the end user? Is there a way maybe of addressing individual sections of the Flash movie from HTML buttons? What is the best logic to solve this problem and then I can work on a solution?
Lastly, and I'm sorry for the long post, my site will be very basic so do I really need to incorporate Flash at all; can I address multiple external .flv movies with various buttons within Dreamweaver.

Is there a way maybe of addressing individual sections of the Flash
movie from HTML buttons?
No.
Think of it this way:
Your site has a Nav menu that leads to individual html pages.
Each page contains a Flash Video Player with a playlist.
The Playlist contains links to all the FLV clips relating to this page's topic.
Notice I said clips. Don't try to use one long playing video on the web.
This recent discussion may be of interest to you...

WWD FLV Player is pretty nice. It's compact, easy to set-up.
Read the installation.html that comes with it.

Why the flash player don't work after installing the video downloader add-on?

I've installed and uninstall the Firefox mobile app several times to try and fix this issue. Every time I add the video downloader add-on the flash player won't let me tap to play videos anymore. I've tried to completely enable the flash but still didn't work. I've used this add on for a few months and it worked fine up until the last Firefox update. Without the add-on the flash player works fine but after I've added the video downloader add-on I would have to uninstall and reinstall the mobile spot to get the flash to work again. I really love to use this add-on that's the advantage that Firefox mobile app has over other web browser. Please tell me how I can fix this issue. THANKS

Hello FRYDAE
Welcome to SuMo help Forum,
Thankyou for reaching us here
About your problem , have you tried to clear your privacy/browsing data? And see if flash works?
And you can try to disable the add-on, if you don't want to use it . and enable it again if you want to download a video .
Cheers!

How do I add more than one video per track/layer?

Hi.
Could someone please advise me how I can add more than one video to a track/layer?
I'm cutting and pasting parts and each time I paste, a new track/layer is added.
The final video is going to be approximately 5 minutes long.
I am 17 seconds in and have 54 tracks already!
How do I stop this?
Thank you very much
J

More video tracks. This is actually what you want.
Unless you're just making a still image (like Photoshop), multiple layers give you control to animate each individually. (If it's just a Photoshop comp you're after, you may want to create it in Photoshop)
If you want to move ALL OF THE VIDEO TRACKS TOGETHER, you can use
parenting or
precompose those individual layers into a single composition.

Adding more than 1 video to "add video" slot

I want to know how (if its posable) to add more than 1 video to the add video slot, i want it to kinda be like a play all button for episodes of something, anyone know how to do this?

Maybe you should combine all the videos you want to add into one video (like put all the clips into an iMovie project), then have chapter markers for each clip.
