Flash videos showing locally, but not on my site. help please

Hi,
I converted several avi's to flash, I then inserted the FLV
file into and html file in dreamweaver.
The flash files will play locally, but not when i upload them
to web server. Check it out here please
http://kdsi.org/kds/demo.html
please check the demos above to see what i mean. I just get a
blank page.
Anyway to insert video into the page like youtube? (instead
of the "demo video" button have the video embedded and just click
play to play it. without using the popup like i did.)
thank you.
thanks

Hi,
I am sorry i did not get what you mean with the last
sentence, but generally, this may be a path problem, you need to
check your FLV path and make it meet the path on the server not the
local machine.

Flash Video plays locally, but not on web

I have a htm page that I have inserted a Flash Video. It
plays locally, but not when I have it on the web. I get nothing -
no skins, nothing. If I rt click, there are the settings for flash.
I have the scripts in my scripts folder - double checked that. Can
anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
Here is the link.

right off the top ..
You have two script calls to the Scripts folder and file ..
one is root
relative and the other goes up one level. One of them needs
to be removed.

Flash video works locally but not on server

I am hoping that someone can help me solve this problem. I cannot seem to fix it. I have created a flash video and it works fine locally but doesn't when I upload it to the server. All I get is a white blank screen. I can access the Flash settings but the video doesn't display. I have checked all file paths, which are correct since everything is in the same folder. I have looked up other forums trying to find a solution but nothing has worked yet. Does anyone here have any idea on how to solve this problem?
My operating system is Windows XP. I am using IE8 browser and my flash player is up to date. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Nevermind. I ended up solving the problem on my own. This old guide that I used before ended up helping me out. I will post the link here in case anyone else has the same problem.

Captivate 5.5: preloader shows locally but not on web site

What could be happening on my server that prevents my Captivate 5.5 AS3 preloader from displaying?
I can see a blip when I preview the courses locally, and when I upload files to another server, I can see the preloader display perfectly. But on my usual server, which used to show the preloader, I just get a few seconds of blank screen before my course plays.
So Captivate is working OK, but what could be happening on my server which until today was behaving properly? (Yes, I'll contact my hosting service, but if you've run across a similar issue and maybe a solution, any ideas you have may help me talk with them.)
Thanks!

Rick, I have a weird problem now.
my files sometimes load and sometimes don't!
when I place the url on the current webpage (where the index is) - the files load.
when i click them from the index file, a new window opens up but the files don't load.
this behavior is not consistent. a few hours ago it did work.
any ideas???

Make sure your server is configured to serve .flv files. Ask
your host if
there is a mime type set up for that file extension.

Movies show locally but not on web

The symptom: I'm not able to get a swf to show or play in an
html page on a web server. The html page shows blank (though right
clicking confirms there's an invisible swf on the page).
I followed the well written Adobe Design Center tutorial at
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/tutorials/videoencoderwizard/
(explicitly, and dozens of times) With each iteration, I first
cleared out the files on my local drive and webserver and started
fresh.
The process followed was:
1. Created a fla in Flash 8
2. Imported a MWV movie to the stage, following the
parameters of the tutorial, and saved it as a FLA, FLV, swf skin,
and swf movie to a single folder on my PC.
3. Created a blank html page in Dreamweaver 8. Inserted a
Flash Video in the page. In the "Insert Flash Video" dialog box I
set the following:
-Video type = Progressive Download Video; URL pointed to FLV
file; Skin set to "Clear Skin 1"; Width 250
4. FTP'd one folder containing all files to the website:
html, flv file, swf video, Clear_Skin_1.swf,
ClearExternalPlayMute.swf (this is the control skin I set in Flash,
but it wasn't available in the dropdown of the "Insert Flash Video"
dialog box in Dreamweaver so I picked Clear_Skin_1.swf),
5. called up the url in several browsers: IE 6.0.2, IE 7,
Firefox 2.0 - all with same result: blank white screen.
Any ideas/suggestions will be much appreciated by me - and
probably others here too. Tell me I'm not the only one experiencing
this!
Best,
Steve

Was able to resolve this with the help of Adobe Technical
Support. For those coming after me, here's the Fix:
This issue is caused by a MIME setting in Windows 2003 web
server.
Reason:
With IIS 6.0, Microsoft changed the way streaming media is
handled. Previous versions of IIS did not require any modification
to stream Flash Video. Microsoft IIS 6.0, the default web server
that ships with Windows 2003, requires a MIME type to recognize
that FLV files are streamed media.

Note: I tested my video on a Linux server and it worked fine:

[Captivate 8] HTML5 Publishing - First Slide shows locally but not on test server

Hi all,
The Question
Has anyone run into this issue of the first slide not showing on HTML5 (and/or SWF) until you open up the TOC and select the recalcitrant slide and then it shows (and operates) just fine? Not on project load, just when it is selected.
The Description
I've only been using Captivate 8 for a short period of time, and I've run face first into a little bit of a bigger hurdle than I expected. At present, I have a simple, linear Captivate project that in essence replicates a Powerpoint (client specified). Everything was working just fine until I tried a HTML 5 Preview from Captivate 8 and first slide did not show. After some research my solutions to the problems I encountered was to:
Local preview occasionally causes a glitch. Solution: Publish locally and (pre)view the result. This didn't work.
Group all objects on the first slide and then attach the action Show to that group. This fixed the problem.
Following that I published it to a host server (test server at the moment, but ultimately it will the live dev server). I encountered the same problem, so:
Tried the group trick, above. No joy.
Opened up the TOC and navigated to the other slides. None of the buttons (previous slide, next slide) worked.
Renamed the "Mouse.mp3" to remove that annoying click. Result: All project buttons worked, but the first slide was not showing (grouped or otherwise).
Removed all master slide objects from the slide. No joy.
Removed the button (action: Next Slide) and reduced the play time of the slide to 5 seconds so that the slide would play upon loading, then just move to the next slide. No joy.
Tried all of the above with SWF and HTML 5 publication.
Tried all of the above with SWF only.
Once again, when I open up the TOC and navigate to the first slide ("Title Page") the blank slide that is populated only by the lonesome borders becomes the Title slide, as it should. Also, local preview from the file (\project\index.htm) works just fine.
Obviously I'm missing something. It's probably something incredibly obvious, so I thank you for your patience.
The Technical
Captivate 8.0.0.145
OS: Maverick OSX and Windows XP Pro SP1
Other: Adobe CS (up-to-date install)

First, apologies--I didn't see the "Getting Started" sub-community so if this thread can be moved there then thank you. Second, I missed some important details.
Project Details
Captivate 8, blank project*. Content at the moment is only text captions, media resources (pictures, two web objects [to Vimeo]), and transparent buttons. The project is stripped of the play bar as it is a self-paced lesson/module.
* I don't have the lead time to make this a responsive design, though that is the ultimate goal once the one-size-fits-all version (1024x627) has been released.
Testing Hardware Details
The following are the machines and browsers I've tested the HTML5 output on.
Mac (10.9.4) -- Chrome 36.0.1985.125 (hangs; need to open the TOC and click on "Title Page"), Firefox 30 (works fine), Safari 7.0.5 (9537.77.4) (works fine)
Windows 7 Pro SP1 -- IE 11 (works straight away! *shock*), Chrome 35.0.1916.153 m (hung, but on refresh worked fine), Firefox 31.0 (throws out unsupported error [known feature] but then loads up just fine).
Chromebook -- Chrome OS 35.0.1916.155 (worked straight off).
Smartphones -- Not supported, but iPhone 4S (iOS 7.1.2) (works fine, but not designed); Galaxy S5 Chrome (broken).
Tablets -- iPad2 (iOS 7.1.2) (play button loads partial content, on refresh works fine); Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Chrome (broken), Android Browser (works fine).
I'm more than willing to share a link to the project and the Captivate 8 file, but just thought that I would see if this gets any traction/recognition before going deeper.

Additional Steps:
I just updated Flash again to the latest version MAC
I reset Safari back to defaults
This issue may be just my setup but I cannot figure out nor think of the appropriate question to ask to start to troubleshoot besides the one provided in this thread.
This is the web page I am having issues with Safari:
http://doc-fu.com/episodes
NOTE: This site is built using Drupal 6
I've tested this page on all other browsers MAC + PC and the videos load fine and play accordingly, even the preview poster displays
Testing the same page with Safari MAC + PC and I get a blank Flash screen but the YouTube logo still appears, see following image:
Here comes the confusing part, Under HTTP I get the above blank Flash screen YET when I switch to HTTPS like so https://doc-fu.com/episodes, the videos display and play as expected. Additionally, when under HTTPS all the other browsers DO NOT display the flash video.
I am able to play videos on YouTube's website.
Any help or guidance is much appreciated.
Thank you very much for your help,

SWF plays locally but not on live site

I created a popup html file which contains an swf with
animation and sound. On the homepage of the website, I defined an
"onClick" behavior to open this popup window containing the swf
file. This works fine locally on my computer, but when I put all of
the files on my server, the popup window opens but nothing appears
except the title of the popup in the title bar of the
window...other than that the popup is a blank white screen. I'm new
at this...what's wrong??? Spending way too much time on this!
Thanks.

yes...i uploaded the popup html file and the swf file...in
fact, the actual swf file will play if i type in the address to the
swf file, but if i open the index page and click on the text with
the clickOn behavior, the popup opens but is blank. Here's the
popup url:
http://www.onguardkids.com/Video/alarm_sound.swf
but it will not play if i type in the direct popup page:
http://onguardkids.com/alarm_sound.html
here's the index page...on the bottom left corner the popup
opens when you click on "Click Here to Hear Alarm".
http://www.onguardkids.com
Also, is there a behavior that will change the curser to a
pointer when it is over the "Click Here to Hear Alarm" text?
Thanks.

Flash seeming to download but not properly...help

My computer (vista) crashed over the summer and everything is back to normal except for flash. I 'downloaded' it but its not showing up anywhere and nothing is playing with flash. I have followed all the troubleshooting instructions but nothing is working. Any help would be much appreciated...

Hi Teacus, Sorry that didn't work. Sometimes something needs to be done prior to Uninstalling and Installing.
I know you use Vista. Is it a 64bit? Also post back that info and what browsers you use and the versions.
Let me know what Anti-Virus program you use and does it contain a Firewall? If not do you use any Firewall other than Windows?
Are you the Administrator and did you use the Administrator Account when Uninstalling/Installing?
Last but not least, go to this test site (use each browser to test) and can you see the animation? That will also tell you what version of Flash Player you have Installed.

New MPB - iPod shows up in Finder but not in iTunes. Help please!

I just completed a 95% successfull migration from my old MPB to my new MPB. iTunes seems to work fine, sees all my music and I have authorized the new mac to play the music.
However, when I connect either of my two ipods I get the same result - it does not show up in iTunes but immediately shows up in Finder. Given the same thing happens with both ipods I suspect there is some silly little setting I have to go through. Can anybody help please?
The MBP is a brand new 13" with the smaller processor. The iPods are a 2nd generation 40Gb and the 120Gb Classic.

So I ended up reinstalling iTunes. That almost solved it, but when I also restored the iPods it seems to be OK.
Must say I'm disappointed that a brand new Mac behaves this way (and ironically it did not even have the latest software installed...).

Flash Remoting Works Locally But Not On The Server

Hello,
I have a flash file that connects to an asp.net page. The
aspx page queries a databse and returns a set of records to flash.
Flash reads in those records and processes those records. Locally,
this works fine. However, on the server, nothing happends. I spoke
with tech support at hosting company and they tell me everything is
installed for Flash Remoting.
Here is the code thats on the server:
import mx.remoting.NetServices;
import mx.remoting.NetDebug;
mx.remoting.debug.NetDebug.initialize();
//CONSTRUCTOR
var inited:Boolean = false;
if(!inited){
inited = true;
NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("
http://63.134.251.243/gateway.aspx");
var gatewayConn
bject = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
gatewayConn.setDebugID( "Gateway Connection" );
var SQLQueryToolService
bject = gatewayConn.getService("matthewlemke", this
function SQLQueryToolAction(){
SQLQueryToolService.test("SELECT * FROM flashImages");
function test_Result(result){
trace(result);
_root.abc.text = result.toString();
SQLQueryToolAction();
Here is the code locally:
import mx.remoting.NetServices;
import mx.remoting.NetDebug;
mx.remoting.debug.NetDebug.initialize();
//CONSTRUCTOR
var inited:Boolean = false;
if(!inited){
inited = true;
NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("
http://localhost/matt/gateway.aspx");
var gatewayConn
bject = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
gatewayConn.setDebugID( "Gateway Connection" );
var SQLQueryToolService
bject = gatewayConn.getService("matt", this );
function SQLQueryToolAction(){
SQLQueryToolService.test("SELECT * FROM flashImages");
function test_Result(result){
trace(result);
_root.abc.text = result.toString();
SQLQueryToolAction();
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Vic

I am having the exact same problem. My remoting application
works fine on my laptop as long
as the url for the gateway reads
http://localhost/remotingData/gateway.aspx,
but if I change
it to the name of my machine and attempt to run the swf I
keep getting a NetConnection.call.badversion error in the
netconnection debugger. If I attempt to connect through IE it just
sits with no reply.
Is there some kind of permission thing going on here?

Flash video - YouTube/ iPlayer does not fit my secondary display, please help

For the last few weeks, everytime I try and play video such as in iPlayer or YouTube on my secondary (1920x1080 Samsung TV 40") monitor, from my MacBook Pro 15" (New Thunderbolt version) it has a border and does not fill the screen. The YouTube divx mode works fine and does fill the screen, it's happening on Chrome and Safari, I've reinstalled flash, but no luck - Please help

You need to have Image+Wireframe ON to grab a drag point (little squares at each corner) to re-size to full screen.
Ensure the Viewer and Canvas are set to "Fit to Window" before starting.
Double click the small clip in the Timeline, it opens in the Viewer.
Place the playhead over the Timeline clip.
When you scale the clip in the Viewer you will see it update in the Canvas.
This way you see waht you will get straight away.
