Float Video over web page

Hello all -
I would like to float a video over a web page, so that when
the web pages is scrolled the video remains on the screen. I have
contacted technical support and was told this involved Div tags,
and CSS. Both of which I'm fairly familiar with. However, they did
not tell me how to do this, but referred me here.
I have a video that has been converted to an FLV with a
transparent background. I have the web page and the video plays on
it just fine. Now, I need to be able to scroll the web page while
the video 'floats' on top the screen.
Can any one help? PLEASE?
Many thanks!

If you don't have to worry about IE6 or earlier, you can use
the CSS style
for position:fixed, as is done on the

page for
the Eric Stoltz design.

  • HELP ! Banner with floating animation over web page

    Hi, im fairly new at flash and i have to create an Banner but
    it consist of an animation that appears from underneath the web
    page and floats up to the area where the banner will be posted and
    then transforms into the banner.(the floating object needs to have
    some transparency)
    I have about 16 different sizes for the banners cause they
    are for different web sites. Any help is greatly appreciated

    You can put links in applets. You can put buttons and other input/output widgets in applets.
    I don't think it's possible to make an applet be the background image of a web page, although you might be able to simulate that with layers.
    Though if all you want is moving water as the background, the water moving conditionally, maybe you don't need an applet at all. Maybe you can do it more easily with javascript. Actually at this point I'm not sure if you really do have an applet; maybe you're just using the word as shorthand for something else?

  • Flash video on web page takes long very time to load before it starts playback

    I just created a basic flash file to play a video on my web page and it's taking several minutes to load before it starts playback.
    I'm using progressive downlaod and the file is in *.mov format and is 84MB in size. At first that seemed large to me for web play back, but I thought it could handle it since I thought the way progressive download works is that it would start playing the first frame right away and progressively play other frames as they download. However, this seems to be downloading the whole file first (or a major part of it) before starting any playback at all.
    Is there some kind of setting I'm missing or is my understanding of the download incorrect and the file size is too large?
    Some vitals:
    - I'm using Flash Pro CS5
    - To create my flash file, I used the standard import video wizard and selected the a file that is "on my computer" and "load external video with playback component" and then, I selected one of the standard skins.
    - To deploy the vidoe on my webiste I have three files:
    1) swf file containing the FLV component
    2) the swf file related to skin
    3) the actual video (84MB, mov file)
    - Web page includes/embeds reference to swf file

    Thanks for your response again. Looks like things have changed a bit to complicate this a little more.

    Are you saying that if I wait long enough it will start to play .... from the link you posted?
    What you are implying here is correct. The file won't play no matter how long you wait.  Looks like it's because of the "source" file settings in the Import Wizard may now be incorrrect. This is why it's not playing in the new file. 
    When I created my original Flash Video using a MOV file, during the import wizard, when asked "Where is your video file?" I selected the option "Already deployed to a web server...". Here I entered the url to where the video file is located on my production server.
    When I created the new Flash Video using F4V file, during the import wizard, when asked "Where is your video file?" I selected the option "On your computer". Here I selected the file from my local drive.
    Sorry for not pointing out the inconsistency earlier - I didn't think it mattered and plus I couldn't get the F4V file to import from the web server.
    Anyway, I've changed my object tag using the acutal published html that flash generates and have uploaded all source files to same location.
    http://www.upperhand.com/tv/video-intro.html
    To sum up the problem(s) I need help with:
    Issue #1 - When trying to import F4V file using import wizard, I cannot use "Already deployed to a web server..." as an option for the file location. I believe this is creating issue #2
    Issue #2 - For some reason, the F4V file will not load into the SWF file when it's published to my production server. 
    It works when viewing locally through browser as c:\inetpub\wwwroot\mywebsite\video-intro.html
    It doesn't work when viewing on development server through browser as http://localhost/mywebsite/video-intro.html
    It doesn't work when viewing on production server through browser as http://www.mywebsite.com/video-intro.html
    Issue #3 - When the above are resolved, I'm not certain if my orignal question/issue will be resolved...  browser tries to downlaod full file before any playback.

  • Embedding QuickTime Video om Web Page

    Hello,
    Thank you in advance for any help someone can provide. I am trying to embed a quick time movie on a web page. I have received the reference file from the company that will host the quick time movie and I successfully can embed the movie. How do I embed the movie with a frame of the movie with the controller to display when a visitor initially visits my page? Do I need to have the reference file recreated?

    http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/javascript/excerpt/learnwebdesign_chap22/index.html
    scoot down the page and you will see
    Use the autoplay parameter and attribute to set whether the
    movie starts
    playing automatically when the page loads (true) or if the
    user needs to hit
    the Play button to start the movie (false).
    regards

  • Playing video in web page instead of full screen

    There is no "web authoring for iPad" forum. So I apologize for posting in the inappropriate section.
    I have a web page with multiple video feeds, each with its own playlist, all playing at the same time. This works well with computer browsers. But the iPad/iPod/iPhones keep opening one video full screen. Is there a way to get the videos to play in their place on the web page instead?

    Only the iPad is capable of playing videos in place. iPhone and iPod Touch will always open videos in a separate Quicktime window. I don't believe you have to do anything special for the video to play in place on iPad. Just embed the video as normal.

  • Embeding video in web page

    Hi all,
    I'm a bit confused with video on iphone.
    iphone does not want to play a video (m4v created with qt pro) when it's embed in web page (html tag "embed" with attribute type "video/x-m4v").
    But the SAME video send to iphone with itunes plays!!
    What I'm missing?
    Any idea?
    Thanks.

    does the video conform to these specs:
    H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

  • CS6 - Trouble displaying Flash video in Web pages

    Hi,
    Here's my problem: I embedded .flv videos in HTML pages the same way I've been doing it for years. It worked fine until I moved to CS6.
    The last video clips were edited and encoded in Flash format (1024x576 for 1800 bps) in Premiere CSS6 then embedded in HTML pages in DW CS6 after creating the .swf files with Flash CS6. All CS6, no compatilbity problems then.
    Once onlie, they fail to display properly, i.e. you have to click a couple of times on the Start/Pause button and occasionally refresh the page to be able to view the video. It's works fine once started but the trouble is getting it to start automatically.
    There's over 300 videos ranging from a few seconds to about 15 min on this site, and this is the very first time I come across this kind of problem.
    Any suggestion?
    Here's on of the old videos: http://www.aquiceara.com/UK/Video/Bresil_Maranhao_Survol_Lencois.html
    And here's one of the CS6 "troublesome" videos: http://www.aquiceara.com/UK/Video/Chine_HK_Tai_Hang.html

    The answer is to exactly copy the code from the CS5.5 and below versions of Dreamweaver.
    Bu Nancy is correct. Everyone is moving to other standards for video on websites. Nancy generally recommends Pickle Player and I have been hand-coding using the HTML5 standards. I have generally found that all videos play in all browsers using the new standards, though you do have to support OGG and WEBM video files on your server.

  • Adding Flash Video to web page

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a web page that I have added a flash video to using
    the insert flash video option in Dreamweaver. I uploaded all the
    files including the additional files that are created when you use
    that option and when I try to get to the video file once I have
    uploaded it will not play. If I use a link directly to the .swf
    then it will play but the link to the page where the video is
    inserted just shows a blank page. Can anyone give me any guidance
    on how I can get this to work.
    P.S. If I preview it from my desktop before uploading to the
    website it works fine.
    Thanks,

  • Settings for Exporting DVD Video to Web Pages

    I have some short family dvd's that I want to export to some web pages.
    What's the best method to :
    1 extract the dvd content
    2 create media for web viewing
    BTW: I think I'd rather use MP4 with h.264 (rather than .flv) for this set of media
    Q :
    1 - what are the best apps for extracting from dvd and then encoding the MP4
    (handbrake - quicktime - squeeze etc?) mac is preferred - or pc is ok too
    2 - for the 'average' dsl/cable connection what are the best (safest) video frame sizes and bitrate settings ... I was thinking something like:
    480x320 and bitrate xxxx?
    or can I go as big as
    640x480 and bitrate xxxx?
    Thanks in advance for the help....

  • Can I use iPhoto to make videos for Web Page?

    Hi,
    I really don't know where to ask this question, so I'll give it a whirl here.
    I now have Tiger and am thinking about getting Leopard. However,
    I would like to know what I might have to do, or if it is possible, to
    make a video using my iMac to record and then upload to a web page.
    I may ask this elsewhere, but I also need some input on creating a
    web page with an iMac. I used an old version of FrontPage to create
    some websites, but now that I have an iMac not sure which way to
    go.
    I'll figure out where to ask my other related questions, LOL!
    Thanks much,
    Lee

    A follow up question.
    I guess I can record a video using the iSight camera and mic in my iMac?
    In other words, I would use iSight with my iMovie application, correct?
    So that brings up something else...
    If I were to upgrade to Leopard, could I use iSight to record a video and use one of the backgrounds provided in Leopard to block out the normal background that might be seen through iSight? I guess I can do that with iChat in Leopard but I have no idea if that means I can create the video with that background.
    And then, of course, I would like to create the video and post it online: that would be the ultimate goal. Or, I guess, even post it on YouTube if needed.
    Thoughts or ideas?
    Thanks again,
    Lee
