FLV Video not appearing

I have been trying to convert some VOB video files to flv
files.
I have used a converter to convert the VOB files to MPG.
These mpg files display fine when I launch them within Windows.
When I create a new flash file and import the video, the video
appears as a 32 by 32 black square. I have included play controls
but pressing play, nothing appears. However the progress bar moves
along as if it is playing. There is no sound either.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Thanks
Paul

Many Flash Video encoders can't process muxed MPEG-2 program
streams (your run of the mill MPEG-2 file, including VOB files). I
wrote an article on MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 usage in Flash Video encoders
on Community MX. It's a free article, and it might help you get
your MPEG-2 encoded without any transcoding to MPEG-4. If you have
any questions after reading the article, let me know:

  • .flv videos not appearing in published .swf

    Hi, I have imported some .flv files into my Captivate project, but when I publish it as .swf the files do not show I up at all... I have no idea why... Can anyone help with this.

    Hello ,
    Can you tell me the version of Adobe Captivate you are using (Go to Help > About Adobe Captivate) ?
    Do you get any error message when you play the .swf output ?
    Thanks

  • FLV videos not playing correctly in Captivate 6

    I am running into an issue where my FLV video is not playing correctly when my Captivate project is exported out and saved to the web. The FLV video is about 20 mins long (~100 MB) and it is being streamed from Kaltura. The FLV video is inputted into the Captivate project as a multi-slide synchronized video across 27 slides. The slides themselves are imported from Powerpoint. The problem that we are running into is that the Captivate project and the FLV video play correctly when viewed with decent bandwidth, but they do not appear to play correctly for users with slower bandwidth. However, if a user views the videos independently of Captivate, they can view the videos correctly, even at slower bandwidth. I have tried hosting the Captivate files on several different webservers, including an LMS. But the issue continues and I'm searching for any type of answers that might help.
    Thanks for reading and any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Nathan,
    Your welcome, if that is the case, then can you try and insert the MultiSlide Video, you can insert the streaming video URL.
    You can add the server to you computer as network Drive and then browser to that location, once you do that, the options to add the Video as Streaming can be chose and your Vidoe would remain insync with main playbar, users can play and pause content that way.
    See if this can be implemented at your end.
    Thanks,

  • Flv videos not playing on html files - UNC/Mapped Drives

    Hi,
    We've discovered an issue with Dreamweaver CS3 recently (running on Windows 7 Pro, 32bit) in our school, where embedded flv video files wont run when the file's UNC path appears in the address bar, but will if this is changed to the local drive letter, in our case N. This obviously makes it a little difficult for teachers to mark students' work.
    I found a similar issue in another thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/688483
    which had not been answered. Are there any known solutions for this please? I have spent a while browsing, but have so far not come back with much. I've tried enabling and disabling 'Remove run from start menu' which was suggested, but this didn't make any difference.
    Thank you

  • Flv video not playing in AIR application

    Hi everybody,
    i'm building a tutorial with flash catalyst and since the 20 states limit i've split it up in different swf files that I import and show in different states.
    One of these swf (which i built with Catalyst as well) is supposed to play a flv video, and it actually plays it if i run it alone.
    The problem comes when i build the overall tutorial: it works perfectly with the "run project" command in Catalyst and with the run-local version but the video won't play if i try the AIR application.
    Does anyone have any suggestion?
    NB: the "asset" directory created with the AIR application installer does contain the flv file (i didn't have to put it there manually)
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Giuseppe

    Hi Giuseppe,
    what I do is:
    1. create a file using Captivate
    2. i place a .flv video in this file
    3. save the file as .swf
    4. then i go to dreamweaver and put the swf on a html page.
    Now:
    when viewed in a browser, everything runs fine.
    when i pack this page into an air application (in dreamweaver) the video does not appear,
    instead I get this "Connection Error"
    I do not know a console or log file.
    However, I learned that there is a .xml file located in the same AIR folder that you publish in.
    In this .xml file there is a setting :transparency. in order to playt a .flv file this must not be be "transparent"!
    (i read this somewhere in the net)
    hope that helps
    I will talk to a professional programmer, if I have any news, i will let you know

  • .flv VIDEOS not playing smoothly

    A heavy video-generated Captivate project has been created in Cap 4:
    * 18 slides all up, with the total size of .flv videos coming to 90.7MB
    * Using Captivate, as looking for interactivity -- there is also a menu, so users can jump to whichever section they'd like to watch/use
    When accessing the completed project online:
    1) The loader quickly goes up to 100%
    2) Shows the preloader image I have inserted
    3) User clicks play, and the first slide with video plays...
    The first video either freezes / move quickly along the timeline. You are also unable to jump to other sections shown in the menu. While I am not too worried about this, my priority is for comfortable viewing for the first video. I am assuming that the first video freezes, etc because the whole project has yet to load completely. How can one work towards this solution? I have tested the loading time, changing it from 10%, 20%, towards 100% but the video is still freezing at times / moving quickly along the timeline.

    Thanks for your PM - I just checked your project and it runs 100% fine and smooth for me.
    I checked it on two different PC's
    1. Vista 64-bit, IE 7.0, Flash player 10, 10mbit/10mbit internet connection.
    2. Win XP Pro, IE 7.0, Flash player 10, corporate LAN
    This leads me to the conclusion that the issue is the speed of your internet connection. The first video is around 80 seconds and is 13.5 Mb. That is very big when you consider the length and especially the dimension of the video you are using.
    If you dont already have FP10 then try and upgrade to see if that helps. It's much better at handling videos etc. than the older versions of Flash players.
    Secondly you need to recode your videos. You will be able to get the first video down from 13.5 to perhaps 4-6 mb, with a noticable quality loss. If you have Flash you can use the Adobe Media Encoder to do the recoding.

  • Movies and videos not appearing on iPhone.

    I have an odd problem with movies (both those made by me and those purchased via iTunes) not appearing on my iPhone 3GS after syncing, even though they used to.
    All of the options in iTunes are set correctly for syncing.
    The strange thing is this: I can see the videos being transferred in the sync status bar in iTunes, but when I go into the iPod part of my iPhone and select Videos they are not there.
    Also, if I delete the movies from iTunes, and then sync, the movies are actually copied back from the iPhone to my mac, even though they were not showing up on the phone.
    Anyone have any ideas? I have selected and deselected every option I can think of and synced over and over again, but it makes no difference.
    Regards,
    Andy

    Guys, I have finally solved my problem, and I hope this helps you too.
    In the end my issue with the non-syncing of videos turned out to be due to the Restrictions settings. I had been experimenting with enabling the restrictions for various sorts of content so that my young daughters did not end up seeing, hearing or buying something that they ought not. This then stopped a number of videos from being seen on my iPhone, even though they were there.
    So, if you have set any sort of restriction on your phone, check your settings : General > Restrictions > Allowed Content. It may be that this sorts out your some of your problems.
    As a side issue, I am a a bit annoyed about this problem. Yes, I played around with the content restrictions, and then forgot about it, but maybe somehow, somewhere during or after a sync a message ought to pop up saying "You have enabled some content restrictions. Some of your audio or video content may not be available on this device"?
    Anyway, hope this helps you all.

  • Videos not appearing in TV Shows in iPod...

    When I add a video to iTunes and set it so it goes in the TV Shows section all works well.
    However, when i drag it onto my iPod, it will not appear in TV Shows, infact, the TV Shows dosen't even say there's no videos there, but it just won't let me in to see it. When I put that same video in the 'Movies' section, it can play fine.
    Why is this?

    I had the same problem, but after I changed them to Movies and then back to TV shows it worked. Unfortunately, I had to do this manually with 12 episodes, but it may be worth downloading one of the many Apple scripts to do multiple shows.

  • FLV video to appear in front of SWF movie

    Hi, I have a FLV video with a transparent background that plays in front on a HTML based website perfectly fine. But when place in front of a website that's a SWF movie in a HTML shell it comes up fine in Mac based browsers, but appears underneath the SWF file in PC based browsers. Does anyone know how I can get the FLV to appear in front of the SWF in alll browsers?

    Have you tried setting the wmode="transparent" in the html embedding code for the swf file.  That normally causes an swf to drop down to page level z-wise.  Normally Flash will otherwise sit above other content.

  • Video not appearing in Analytics

    We are using Enterprise for a new client and we have embedded a video in some folios (and hope to have multiple videos in folios in the future).
    However it does not appear in the Analytics under the Video content. Articles and ads appear perfectly. I assume we have to give it a title - but where do we set this?

    Thanks Himanshu,
    We are in the middle of a launch so we don't want complication of a new app build at the moment.
    Thanks for the explanation. It would be good if known issues with versions could be listed somewhere so we could check there first.
    Thanks

  • FLV video not showing up

    I imported a flv video on a Dreamweaver page. It looks fine
    when I view in a browser locally, but when I publish it just shows
    as a white area.
    When I publish with SWFs; no problem.
    I've publish the scripts so that's not the issue. Any ideas I
    should try?
    Thanks very much.
    Any ideas?

    Check your hosting, one of mine is now blocking flv files as
    "streaming".
    When I have time sites on that hosting company will be moved.

  • TS3719 Video not appearing in iMovie video

    I have lot of video files on my iPad 4 video but they are not appearing through iMovie software.

    iMovie can see video from the photos app.
    It does not see or able to edit video from the movies app.
    So are you saying that you can see the video in the photos app, but iMovie does not see them?

  • YouTube videos not appearing on Apple TV

    Reaching for straws here:
    Using my Mac and the Safari browser, I signed onto YouTube and created a Lana Del Rey playlist containing 10 videos.  When I play this playlist on my Mac, all 10 videos appear and play.
    When I click on the YouTube app on Apple TV and sign into my YouTube account, I can see my Lana Del Rey playlist.  But it only contains 4 of the 10 videos.  I've been trying to figure out why the other 6 videos do not appear.  Is it possible that YouTube allows certain videos to be played on a desktop computer, but not on Apple TV?
    All my Mac and Apple TV software is up to date.  Thx

    Not all videos are available outside of the website, no matter the platform. It could be due to copyright, or the user's decision.

  • DW CS4: FLV video not displaying

    I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 and I'm trying to put an FLV video on a page. I used Insert ->Media ->FLV... and filled in everything it asked for - I browsed for the video (which is in my root directory), I chose a skin, and I input width and height values. I uploaded the video to the server, I uploaded the newly created Scripts folder and its content to the server and, of course, I uploaded the page. I also uploaded FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf and Clear_Skin_3.swf to the root folder. But the video isn't showing.
    Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? It's a standard .flv video for Flash 8 and higher and plays just fine in a variety of players, including Adobe Media Player v. 1.8.
    Here's the page:
    http://StopRightNow.net/index.htm
    (The video should display in the large white area to the left of the page, opposite the body copy)
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I would never have found that. Thanks VERY much! It's strange. When I put the video on the page, I selected Clear_Skin_3. And that's the file that was in my root folder and that I uploaded to the server. But somehow the code showed Clear_Skin_1. After I changed that 1 to a 3 in the page code, all was right with the world
    Again, many thanks for your help. It's much appreciated.

  • Video not appearing in Android folio

    Hi all,
    Strange problem with a web overlay and streaming vid in an Android folio. Here's the story;
    Ive placed a web content overlay on a page by itself. When viewed in the Android viewer, the audio track of the video plays, but no video appears.
    I can view the video successfully in the tablet's (Xoom) browser. I don't know what the encoding specs are for the video, but it works perfectly on the iPad version of the folio. It also displays properly in the Content Viewer on my laptop.
    Mind you, this isnt an inline audio & video -- this is streaming, using a web content overlay. So the "fullscreen" setting work  around doesnt apply that i know.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Confirmed. Avoid web overlay with streaming video for the time being.
    Ha. Did more digging around and hit this little nugget. So does this mean what Im trying to do isnt supported? Can a Bob please confirm?
    Features not supported in Android Viewer
    Some of the features that work in the iPad Viewer are not supported in the Android Viewer.
    Panorama overlays, inline videos, right-edge binding, and pan & zoom PDF articles are not supported.
