Flv video created with flash 8 video encoder

anyone know why flv files that I've created using the flash 8
video encoder don't seem to have any metadata in them? or maybe
they do but they never kick off the NetStream.onMetadata event so I
can't read it...
Similarly if I use the 'import video' function of Flash Pro 8
I get the same issue - yet FLV video created using Sorenson Squeeze
works fine, so I'm fairly confident that my code is OK.
Even more bizarrely, if I use the FLVPlayback component that
ships with Flash 8, that seems to read in the metadata OK!
argh!
Just to confuse things even more, the flash help for
NetStream.onMetadata says: "The Flash Video Exporter utility
(version
1.1 or greater) embeds a video's duration [...] into the
video file itself."
As far as I can tell I've got version 1.0 of the flash video
encoder/exporter but I'm damned if I can find out where to get an
update from...! Ever since CS3 came out it's been harder and harder
to get hold of stuff about flash 8 on the Adobe site...

well that's the thing - the metadata never traces out if the
video was encoded with flash video encoder, but that code would
work fine with video encoded with sorenson squeeze.
think I have worked it out now though: in order to pause the
video at start I am calling NetStream.seek(0) when I receive
"NetStream.play.start".
For some reason when I do this with flvs encoded using flash
video encoder, it stops the onMetaData event from firing - but
works fine with other flvs! weird... shall have to find another way
of pausing the video at the start I guess.
thanks for the reply though

Problems with Flash video playback

I'm having a problem with Flash video playback, hoping
someone here can help.
I have several movies which I have converted to .flv using
the Flash authoring tool. I have then created an .swf for each
movie, embedding the .flv along with the playback component,
playback controls, etc.
I can open these .swfs using Flash Player and everything
displays and plays as expected. However, when I embed the .swf into
a web page and open it using a browser, the playback controls don't
show up, and the movie will only play if it has been encoded to
autoplay. I am on an Intel Mac, using the latest Flash Player
plug-in, and am having this problem in both Firefox 2.0.0.11 and in
Safari 2.0.4.
I'm guessing that the problem lies in how I have encoded the
.swfs into the web page? Hoping someone has a solution, or at least
a good suggestion!
thanks,
- sounddevisor

Yes, that is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Just to clarify for anyone else who stumbles across this -
the extra .swf files (which contain the skin for the player) need
to be in the same directory as the .html doc which is displaying
the video .swf. Hope that helps someone else!

Problem with Flash video in webpage

I've encoded a number of videos in the FLV format(using both
Flash Video encoder and Quicktime), using standard preset settings,
inserted in webpage using dreamweaver standard - Insert Media -
Flash Video. When I try to play the videos, online or testing in
browser, the video does not play the whole way through. It'll play
15 sec into the video and then stop, although it seems to have some
of the rest of the video if you play around with the controller.
I've looked on the Flash encoding forum (other people have the same
problem) and looked on the site for more info but cannot find
any.

Have you checked to see if the FLV is the same size on the
server as your
local copy?

Help with flash video buffering

I need help with flash video buffering. I've created a
buffering graphic to show up when the clip is loading. The problem
that I'm having is that when the video finishs playing, the buffer
is empty and the graphic pops back on. The following is the code
that I'm using to call and buffer the video. Any help would be
great!
stop();
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.setBufferTime(10);
ns.onStatus = function(info){
if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Full"){
bufferClip._visible = false;
if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Empty"){
bufferClip._visible = true;
if (info.code == "NetStream.Stop") {
bufferClip._visible = false;
theVideo.attachVideo (ns);
ns.play("my_clip.flv");
rewindButton.onRelease= function(){
ns.seek(0);
playButton.onRelease= function(){
ns.pause();
}

Again thank you for your help in advance...
I put the script folder into the root. As far as the .flv
file it is showing up as being "put" to my web server. when i
checked the root folder it is there. again i am having the same
problem.. the local view works but when i check it on the web it
just shows that there should be a flash video there but it does not
show up.
i created a new root for this test page the new link is..
http://www.wfwa.org/TESTindexfolder/TESTindex.asp
here are the files that are showing up in it...
flashprojectwebvid.fla
flashprojectwebvid.html

TESTindex.asp
and the Scripts folder
thanks again for any help..

Spry with Flash Video

Is spry compatible with flash video?
I used the Dreamweaver wizard to insert a flash video. I
inserted it into a spry region and changed the source of the flash
video to be:
src="{link}"
however, this does not work. I have tried several other
javascript applications for embedding flash video files, but they
do not work either.
Is there a way to build a flv/ajax application?
Thanks,
Eric

I may have found a resolution to your problem. I was having a
similar problem where instead of the video displaying I would see
the embedded source code appear. I found that I needed to declare
the column type for my XML document and once I did the video
appears correctly. Below is the code I used;
var myvids = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("myvideos.xml",
"videos/video",{sortOnLoad:"project",sortOrderOnLoad:"ascending"});
myvids.setColumnType("flashlink", "html");

Creating a Flash Video Slideshow

I was wondering if there was a tutorial somewhere on how to create a flash video slideshow similar to this website: http://slideshowpro.net/video/slideshowpro_for_flash#num=891929&id=album-42765 . Frankly, I don't even know if that's the correct term for it. The idea is to have one skin (Flash Player) on the site that plays videos with a list of various videos to choose from below. Furthermore, it should play it like switching channel on a TV, like on the site above, not like on YouTube or Metacafe (where a new page opens up with the video). This would be kind of like switching channels on a TV. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

copy and paste your code.

FLVs created with ADOBE MEDIA ENCODER CS6 do not display thumbnails in ADOBE BRIDGE CS6

Could you please attempt to shed some light on why FLVs created with ADOBE MEDIA ENCODER CS6 do not display thumbnails in ADOBE BRIDGE CS6, yet apple finder is able to display thumbnails for these same FLVs without issue?
I'm running CS6 Production Premium with ALL updates installed on 10.6.8
I appreciate any input and help provided the input is provided by someone who either
A) knows the answer because they actually work for adobe
B) actually tried this themselves before attempting to provide a solution
If the conclusion is that it is a codec issue or a header issue with the FLVs You'd have to present a very strong case to back that claim up as it makes no sense whatsoever that CS6 is unable to generate thumbnails for media encoded using CS6, yet Apple finder can without issue. NOT to mention the FLVs in question are CREATED on the same machine with the same codecs installed that is trying to generate previews in Bridge.
Apologies if my frustration is showing, I've gotten and seen several... incompetent replies on this forum regarding this issue and it has never been actually addressed properly as far as I can tell by Adobe support.

We are all just incompetent users here. As pointed out before this is just a user to user forum, Adobe rarely checks in.
I was hoping by now you would have gotten to the bottom of this problem and were offering a solution.

Problems with Flash Video

OK - I have had intermittent problems with Flash video, basically it gets choppy, usually after about 20 minutes - half an hour of watching - recently this problem has gotten worse - coinciding with a recent system update perhaps? - it's more or less anytime I stream something, and it happens on all browsers, even when the movie has clearly downloaded and is buffered way in advance of the playhead.
On 2 occasions recently leaving the movie to play just to see what happens has led to a kernel panic.
I've heard alot about Flash video generally being a resource hog and not playing ball sometimes - is there a way to solve this issue? Things I have tried - reset sound to 16 bit 44.1 khz in audio/midi manager; fixed permissions; run Tech Tool - everything seems to be fine hardware wise - I think there are some incompatible driver issues that are meesing up RAM usage but have no idea what or how to solve this... Any ideas anybody?
Thanks.

If, as you show, you are running 10.5.2, that is out of date. You need to install the 10.5.8 combo updater.
It is also possible that your FlashPlayer is out of date.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Can I keep videos created with the trial of Captivate 6?

I installed the free trial and thought I read something that I would not be able to keep the videos created with it. Is this true? Is there any way to save something, like the .cp file, so that the work done during the trial isn't for nothing? Thanks!

Hello there,
If you are working in Captivate Trial, after you will save the project ( .cptx, .cptl or .cpvc), then you can open that in captivate anytime, it will not be wasted (Captivate Project will never Expire).
But if you will publsih something (.swf or .mp4) with that project in Trial Version, then that published output will be expired after 30 days of the date of creation.
You can open your that project (.cptx, .cptl or .cpvc) created in Trial, in the full version or subscription version later, and publish the project, then that published project will last forever.
Thanks.

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?

Can a video created with Adobe Premiere Elements 13 be converted to run (and be edited, etc.) on Adobe Premiere Elements 11?
I have several hours invested in a video creation that I made with Premiere Elements 13, but now 13 is refusing to work properly (space bar and play button do not move the time line indicator forward). Hopefully, I will get the problem solved, but in the meantime I must get this project completed and don't have time to start over. So, I need to convert the work so that it can be completed with Premiere 11 which seems to work fine.
Thanks, Dave

Dave
Is this an outdated thread? I thought that you had resolved the play button/space bar issue.
Classically, you cannot open a project created in a later version in an earlier version. If you try, you get hit with "The project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened." messaged. There was one rare and little known occasion when that was not the case. It involved Premiere Elements 10. So, that is not going to help us any here.
If you still have the play button/space bar issue, can you get out of the 13 project by exporting it to file which you can import into a new Premiere Elements 11 project? If need be, I can suggest the details of that if you tell me the project setting for the 13 project.
Please let us know the situation at this time.
Thank you.

Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly it and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be pl

Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly the drone and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos , sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be played . Checking the info shows that each of the unplayed videos was saved in the same mp4 format as the playable ones yet some of my most important videos won't play . It's getting very frustrating .

first; I use Perian, that helps even though it is no longer supported, (must have for avi files)
the apple-cores at apple have gotten very sloppy -- quicktime is a bit finicky and flakey.
example,   occasionally (when copy file from quad's card to hard drive) the avi will show up as a 'mov' file and qt plays it no problem and no conversion.
but that is very occasionally, most of the time qt won't convert the file,   -- iMovie won't open an avi without Perian installed , I don't know how that effects qt.
qt 7"pro" is no good either, (qt 10 does everything it does and for NOT the extra $35)
I have gone to VLC and MPlayerX for direct playback for drones and cameras.

I'm having problems with Flash Videos (Youtube and ESPN)

I have been having this problem for the last couple of days now and it is really annoying. Whenever I watch a flash video like on youtube or espn my computer freezes up and the audio will make a loud buzzing sound. I have attached a video with the post so you can see what happens. I don't have problems with anything else except this. I also get this error no matter what browser I use. I have system restored my PC as far as I can go, and I've ran a ton of scans and driver update checks and nothing seems to work.

merci a tous pour les nombreuses réponse. j'ai dû mal a les lire vue que je ne lit que le français. je vous remercié encore une fois amicalement. Blanchette 2.

Xdotool doesn't work with flash videos

Hi,
I don't know if it's a bug or not, but xdotool doesn't seems to work with flash videos.
For example open the page http://www.miniclip.com/games/bloxorz and start the game, the left key should now move the bloc to the left.
Open a terminal and type `sleep 5; xdotool key Left ', then come back to the game.
Nothing happens.
Is there a workaround to do xdotool work with the flash videos?
I already tried with different web browsers, different flash plugins, but this works nowhere.
Thank you
