FLV Flash Video support in Director 11
Guys, where do I import FLV? "Having trouble importing this
file"... Please tell me we still don't have to do the old SWF
container bullcrap. Please??? -Mark
Yes, yes you do have to use it. Make sure it's AS2 as well.

Hi all,
The help file says you can insert Flash video into Keynote '09, but it doesn't acknowledge .swf, .flv or .f4v. So, does 09 really support flash?
Thanks.Well, I'm not sure why it works, but it does. I have Flip4Mac installed, but it does not say anything about .flv files. I have Apple's MPEG player installed, but it doesn't say anything about ,flv files. Of course, the Keynote help file does not show .flv as a file format as one that works. So I wish I could better identify what is different about my software that makes this work.

Uploading .FLV (flash video) to Windows 7 quicktime
I am looking to load flash video (.flv) files to quicktime so I can download to IPOD. Does quicktime pro do this or is there some software that will allow me to do it?
I do not know of another method to get them on the IPOD.
Thanks,
DwampTry this : http://www.formatoz.com/
It will convert anything from, to and back again for the iPod.
Edit : You can also simply change the extension to .mov or .m4v.
If the .flv file contains h.264/aac then that's it.

Flash 8 support in Director MX (ver 9.0)
At the
http://www.adobe.com/support/director/downloads.html
there is new support for Flash 8 SWF files in MX 2004. This is
great and has been highly anticipated by many users. Unfortunately,
I'm using Director MX (ver 9.0) and have a need for the support as
well. My only option at this point is to convince the department to
upgrade to 2004. This is unfortunate only because there are rumors
of a new version of Director to be released. Does anyone know if I
buy 2004 now if the new version will be a free upgrade? Or if there
is something I can do to get Flash 8 SWFs to play in MX (ver 9.0)
until the new version comes out which we will purchase.
John TuminoAdobe has not released any information about the pricing for
the next
version of Director, upgrade or otherwise, so anything that
anyone says
on this board about it is purely speculation. But that said,
I would
very seriously doubt that it would be a free upgrade.
I have not tried this, but you can try to download the 10.1
update from
Adobe's site and pull out the Flash Asset xtra. Put that into
your
xtras folder, and it may allow you to work with newer Flash
files. Or
it may not. But it is worth a try. Be sure to back up any
files you
overwrite, since it may very well cause problems. -
I have a project for work where I have to create an online
educational video catalogue.
The videos are uploaded to the server. What I want to do is
transform the videos from various formats into flv (flash video
format) similar to the way youtube does it.
Does anyone have any idea of how to do this and if there are
any free tools to transform the video to flv format before, during
or after upload. (during or after upload would be best)?anyone have any idea how to do this?

Working with flash videos .flv format
I got a bunch of .flv flash videos that I have to use (And archive first).
The only program I found that display those files are
- Adobe Media Player and
- VLC
I would rather be able to import them in iView Media pro to tag them first but since I cannot import them into iMovie09 either I ask here.
What should I do?
- bulk convert them first so that iView Media pro (and iMovie) would import them?
Thanks for your creative ideas
gfischI have the same issue. Everything works great in Flash 7 and
8. I am playing .flv files from a different spot in the server and
I am calling them from a swf file.
In Flash 9 the file won't play. Here is my sample file:
http://ce.byu.edu/cw/yase/.
The quick fix security.allowDomain("*"); has no impact on this
call. I am using my_video.attachVideo(stream_ns); to load the
video.
I have changed the mime type in another server, restarted and
I have the same problem. Any help would be great!

Problem with Flash video/dropdowns in Mozilla
Am trying to add a flash video to a webpage using a
Dreamweaver extension called Active Slideshow Pro by DMXZone.
The page can be viewed: www.faith.org.uk/Testindex.html
In IE7 it works fine. The video shows and the dropdowns of
the menu work correctly.
In Mozilla Firefox the video works but the dropdowns do not
show.
If I remove the block of coding which is generated by the
DMXZone extension:

/>
</object>
The page works in both browsers and the menu dropdowns appear
correctly.
I would be most grateful for anyone's advice on this.A discussion with Adobe support lends the idea that MPEG
layer 4 might be an issue. That since these videos come from DVD
perhaps encoded with MPEG layer 4 that that could be the reason tha
all of them have this problem. (Some were done using AVI - I have
to check and see if that makes a difference)
BUT
According to the PDF from Adobe Design - Flash Video Encoder
Wizard - By Tom Green and Jordan L. Chilcott
Flash should be able to convert an MPEG4 file. (Well it does
but they all stop after 30 sec.) Now how do I solve this problem?
All the videos still stop after 30 sec.s

Flash Video Encoder Wizard
By Tom Green and Jordan L. Chilcott
The first thing you have to understand about the use of video
in Flash® is the original
video must be converted to a format Flash can read. This
format is FLV (Flash Video)
and you can either use Flash, the Flash Video Encoder, or
third-party software to
create the FLV file. If you use video-editing software such
as Adobe® After Effects®,
you can also export the file as a FLV file. If you are a
Dreamweaver® user, the current
version of Dreamweaver—Dreamweaver 8—contains a
feature that allows you to add
an FLV at the click of a button.
The purpose of the Encoder, therefore, is to convert the
video file to the FLV format.
When you installed Flash Professional 8, the Flash Video
Encoder application was
also installed on your machine. If you also have QuickTime,
Adobe After Effects,
Avid Studio, or Final Cut Pro installed on your machine,
they, too, were given the
capability to use the Encoder when it was installed.
If you will be converting a video to the FLV format, the
video must be in one of
these formats:
• AVI—Audio Video Interleave
• MOV—QuickTime 4 or later
• MPEG—Motion Picture Experts Group -
I need some help. I have a video. The video is in an *.avi
format and in an *.swf format. When choosing to import a flash
video in Captivate 3, I can only select *.flv file. Can anyone
recommend software that will allow me to convert the avi or swf to
the format that Captivate can import?You'll probably need to get Flash. The FLV (Flash video)
encoder comes with
Flash 8 or higher.
It's a separate program and takes in avi's or other video
formats and
outputs FLV. It will not convert a SWF to FLV -- FLV is a
video format not a
Flash format, if that makes sense.
Contact me offline if you need further explanation.

Compressing for flash video setting
Anyone out there building content for flash video? I have a client who is shooting all their footage on a sony HD cam. All footage comes to me as 1080i60. They have requested all content be converted or embedded into flash at a 400X300 canvas size.
I have tried some differant setting but most comes up somewhat pixilated. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Ron NavaMaybe this is helpful: Flash 8 Pro comes with a Flash 8 Video Encoder. It automatically converts Quicktime files into a .flv flash video file WITH a .swf AND a playback skin.
The cool thing about this is how Flash then plays this back as a "progressive download," therefore less waiting time for it to start playback and smoother playback and very nice quality.
I have a sample of this at size 540x400, larger than I have made in the past with other programs, just to see how it would look. I'm still playing with the dimensions. Thinking of making it smaller, actually; but the quality really holds up, I thought. http://web.mac.com/bfkproductions/HomeOne/PowWowSample.html -
Converting to flash video produces a single fine line
Hi
I export a video as a self-contained quicktime movie (1 min long) from FCP 5 and then use Sorensen Squeeze to convert it to a .flv (flash video) - the resulting flash video looks great except there is always (not the entire way through - usually in a couple of scenes) the occurrence of either a vertical or horizontal line (just a single one usually) on the video. It's subtle, but NOT good! It doesnt look like an interlacing issue as it is just the one line!
The video was de-interlaced in FCP ( upper field ) and I am choosing OnVP6 Flash video - and have tried numerous settings.
Anyone know how i stop these annoying lines?
ThxHave you examined the area affected to see if it has excessive chroma or is too brite/dark?

Does quicktime support flash video or flv format
Does quicktime support flash video or flv format
Not natively; it only works if Perian is installed, and then only in Mac OS X 10.8.5 or earlier.

Hi all,
I created a page of info on the process of creating Flash
Video and
integrating them with Director. The tutorial is at:
http://www.deansdirectortutorials.com/FlashVideo/
The top part may seem basic for some. It's there to support
my students
who are using clips from YouTube in their work.
If you scroll right to the bottom, I have a FLA and DIR
template for
linking FLVs in Director. With the SWF created from the FLA
movie, and
with behaviors in the Director movie, you can dynamically
link to FLVs
and have controls to pause, play, rewind, and wait for the
end of the
FLV.
Hope it's useful to all. Let me know if anything is unclear.
And thanks to Chuck Neal who helped with the FLV behaviors.
regards

email: [email protected]What I need is to be able to take flash 9, AS3 swfs, import
them into a Director 11 project, and interact with the flash
funcitons, call them, set properties, etc. Despite the
documentation on the Adobe Director page saying this is possible, I
have not been able to get it to work, and other posters on this
board have stated that it is currently not possible. Any clarity or
examples would help. I notice Director 11 has no entries concerning
Director/flash programming yet on the Adobe Developer page, just
tutorials for MX2004. -
FCP Freezes When Exporting to Flash Video (FLV)

Final Cut Pro: May quit unexpectedly when exporting to Flash
Last Modified: February 13, 2009
Article: TS2593
Symptoms
Final Cut Pro may quit unexpectedly when you export using QuickTime Conversion if you choose Flash Video (FLV) from the Format menu.
Products Affected
Final Cut Pro 6.x, Adobe Creative Suite 3 Flash Video Encoder
Resolution
This can happen if you use the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Flash Video Encoder and Final Cut Pro together. This issue does not occur with the Flash Video Encoder in Adobe Creative Suite 4. To work around the issue:
Choose File > Export > QuickTime Movie.
Be sure to enable Make Movie Self-Contained.
Open the exported movie in QuickTime Player.
Export the movie to Flash from QuickTime Player.
===
I just installed CS5, so I would think I shouldn't be bothered with an older, problematic Flash Video Encoder. I don't think I should have to convert an MOV file to an FLV file using QuickTime Reader or anything else. Why doesn't it export correctly out of FCPro 7.0.2?oh well.
