How to Put Controls on SWF File... then Export to FLV

Have a swf file that self plays.
What I Need:
I need to imbed this self playing 2 minute video clip with
sound...but I want it to have controls on it and be paused. I want
to use dreamweaver to place it in the web page but stupid
dreamweaver only puts controls on a flv file NOT SWF's.
How can I get a swf file, then add controls, then output to
FLV so Dreamwemaver can put it on my page.
I have Adobe Dreamweaver CS4, Flash CS$ but DO NOT KNOW HOW
TO USE IT - Tried but failed miserably (it didnt even want to put
controls easily on this...I tried for 30 min but couldnt break
through. I have the CS3 Master Collection.
Thanks
All I want is for this video to play universally and nicely
in a web page of mine...when will this stuff ever be compatable and
transparent to use!
Suzzie

For me, not. But yes I have to do this. Maybe I manual have a table which includes the y axis coordinates. X axis is dicrete then when I get the value 2 I will look at its y axis and take the coordinates of the y-axis corresponds to the table
Is it difficult?

How to place a Flash swf file with a movie FLV file embedded in DW

     My hair is getting shorter by the hour or maybe missing. I have created a SWF file with Flash 8 that has an embedded FLV file that was created from a MP4 file.   The SWF file works perfectly in FLASH including my Flash nav buttons, and the movie with soundtrack and the buttons for control of volume and start stop. Now I am ready to place it on the web using DW to make the html page. What happens when I test the page on FireFox or IE is the background loads, the buttons load but do not work properly anymore but worse than that: The slide show and the control buttons do not even show up.
     I am also having trouble defining my site locally. I select new site and tell it where every thing is but no luck. All in the same directory, right now I have a image directory but I have not used them on the page as the only image is a jpg and flv file and they are embedded in the swf file.
     I know this is 2 different programs but the Flash files need to be placed in a HTML file to be uploaded, and I have to text them first.

How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?

Hi,
How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?
Thanks.

you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
you should "load" your swf, not import it.
if you want to load it and need help, are you using as2 or as3?

How can i open pc .swf files

How do I open PC .swf files? Dialogue message:The document “Chapter7_review.swf” could not be opened. AppleScript Editor cannot open files in the “AppleScript Editor Document” format."

It's normally adobe flash format.
If you don't want to install flash (Lion does not install it) use the 'google chrome' browser which has it's own flash player.
I use Lion > Safari > with No Flash installed and just use the develop menu option to open the page in chrome if necessary..

Does anyone know how to load a skin . swf file with video to dreamweaver

I have input the video into flash cs3 and then used the
properties section for adding the video in the source section. I
then put the skin with the first drop down. I saved and just put it
in dreamweaver however does not work.. I was told the skin may not
have be sent automatically. How do we do this. Get the skin . swf
file to go with the video or get them both into dreamweaver. I does
not show up on my site.

How can I get a swf file to load...

Not sure if this is the place to ask this but I have a swf file embeded in a web page design.
Now here’s the issue, the client wants to add more photos to it making it even larger.
I would prefer not to make it larger but create 2 or 3 swf files that would randomly load when the webpage is refreshed or reloaded.
Is there a way to code a random swf loading in HTML?
Would I use javascript? I googled and found nothing on the subject.
Thank you

If you know JavaScript (ECMA Script) then you might be able to get it done applying a for loop and a random function
to the for loop if you know how to get a page-loaded request into JavaScript.
But an easier solution, if you know ActionScript 3.0, and if your SWF's don't need to be recoded and can load into a "container" SWF would be to create a master FLA file that loads your SWF's in a random fashion using Math.random() as a multiplier, though you won't see much variation if you only have 2-3 SWF's to load--if you had more than that then you would begin to benefit from the random function's capabilities. In ActionScript 3.0 use the load() method along with addChild() to load the SWF and add it to the stage. You will be able to search for specifics on how to code the FLA properly by using Flash's Adobe Help tool and also using an internet search.
-markerline
P.S. Once you have the master FLA coded you can Publish it to an SWF and an HTML and if the container/master SWF needs to be in a page with other content you can simply copy and paste the object and embed tags for the container SWF from the published HTML into any place on your master HTML that you need it to reside. You can then use CSS to control placement of the SWF object if it is in a div tag.

How can I play many swf files back to back in AS3

I have many swf files
fileA.swf , fileB.swf, fileC.swf
I want to play them from a MainFile.swf back to back, fileA.swf , then fileB.swf then fileC.swf ...then to remove them and have the MainFile.swf only.
How is this done in AS3.
can anyone send me the code needed to do this. i don't know AS3 very well. I know how to do this in AS2 , i used to put code loadmovie in each files last frame that loaded the next file to a mc object in the mainfile.
I would apprciate to have all the code appear only in the main file without haveing to code each seperate swf file.

You should work out how to do it with just one file first in AS3. The approach to doing many sequencially would be similar to what you did in AS2... the simplest way being to add a command at the end of each swf to trigger the main file to remove it and add the next swf. I don't know of any way to detect the end of an swf... it has to tell you it's done.
In AS3 you use the Loader class to load swf and image files. You use the addChild family of methods to place things on the stage, and you use the removeChild family to get them out of the picture.

How can I call in swf file to movie clip?

Hi all ...
This is my first post for advise, although fairly conversant
with flash and as2.
I am developing a new full screen background style website
and have menu buttons contained within a movie clip (nav_c1) ...
this re-aligns to the top centre of a page when user scales the
browser window.
I then have the content area (centre_content) movie clip ...
this realigns to the centre of the page when a user scales the
browser window.
I have scripted the menu buttons to goto a labelled frame in
the main timeline but I need, when at the labelled frame, to be
able to call/load in an external swf file to play 'inside' the
centre_content movie clip?
for example:
If I click my news button the flash file moves to the frame
label news on the main timeline. This then shows a duplicate of the
moive clip 'centre_content' which is called 'centre_news'. I need
to be able to call/load an external news.swf, containing all the
animated news info, to sit and play 'within' the movie clip
'centre_news' ... so that it is effectively contained 'within' the
movie clip file but loaded in place from an external swf file.
Can anyone help please?
I can post a rough working example online if need be.
Many thanks
A puzzled Adrian
ps: I don't think I am needing to load the swf to a level 1
area as I have tried this and instead of the swf file being loaded
and contained within my movie clip file/area it instead seems to
sit fixed on the main timeline (ie: not contained within the movie
clip area).

Thanks Sketchsta for you code. This looks like we're on the
right lines as I see what the code is trying to do.
Unfortunately though I can't seem to get this to work?
I created a new file to get rid of other scripting that was
going on and have placed a movie clip called centre_content onto
the main timeline in frame 1 ... then I have applied your script to
an actions frame above the movie clip also on frame 1. I change the
path_to_file line with my swf name (callin.swf) which is a 1 frame
flash file with some text on it ...
... but it doesn't bring in the callin.swf file ... it just
shows the centre_content clip.
Am i doing anything wrong?
I also tried putting the script onto the first frame inside
the centre_content movie clip but this doesn't appear to work
either.
Regarding the pre-loader ... can I simply build this into the
swf file that is being called in to the movie clip?
Thanks in advance for your support, it is much appreciated.

How to split H.264 video file then playback with FlashPlayer

Hi all,
I want to develope a Flash or Flex application that can stream a video file in H.264 codec.
It's easy to do this with FMS, but it becomes difficult with my budget
I have an idea to do the streaming (not really streamming ) via HTTP.
My idea is: Split the large H.264 file into small pieces.
The client can download the small files then play back in order. (MyVideo1, MyVideo2.dat.....MyVideoM.dat)
The client first will download the metadata in XML format.
The client is able to play/jumb to the middle stream, the client will start download from MyVideoM.dat...(1<=M<=N)
My question is: How can i split my large Video file in H.264 codec in to smaller pieces (MyVideoN.dat) that flash player can play.
Which is the minimum metada that i have to put into my small file so that FlashPlayer can understand my video files?
Am i able to simply split the video file at serverside, then Client will inject the metadata into the downloaded small DAT files using Flash??
Thanks for your support

Print the reviewer the original document the course content
was initially built from if they want it in print format. To expect
a flash SWF to print the same way as a Microsoft Word document way
is just stupid, think of the SWF's timeline and number of
movieclips (and movieclips within movieclips) and how much
information can be contained within it and how it might not always
be in a linear format (eg. like a Word Doc) = your answer which is
Flash is designed for online delivery of rich media content, where
Microsoft Word is designed for printing.

How to import a flash swf file in premier. Without loosing the animation of the movie symbols.

HEEELLPPP!!
I am doing animations in flash... and then putting them in premier as a SWF file..
but when I do that, the animation does not work properly..
example : If its a star that spins, and goes from left to right.
When I put the swf file in premier.. the star only goes from left to right.. without the spin...
(the spin was an animation made inside the movie symbol of the star)
from the forum of flash they send me here.

from the Premiere Pro Help section about importing SWF files:
" Interactive content and scripted animation are not retained. Animation defined by keyframes in the main, top-level movie is retained."

How Can I protect my swf files from decompiling / saving

I have navigated through the internet for a long time now but
could not find the solution to my problem which is "how to protect
my swf file from decompiling/saving"?
I know that it CAN BE DONE and here is an example of a file
on the internet that cannot be saved or decompiled using any
software that I have come across (ie:SOTHINK decompiler, saveflash)
http://www.3dinternet.com/video.swf
Any help? any hints ?
Thanks
Hagop

Hagop,

There is no way to protect your SWF from decompiling. Any
commercial
software on the market can be decompiled -- including the
Flash authoring
tool and Photoshop, for example -- which is why softare
generally ships with
an end user license agreement (EULA) that expects you to
agree not to
decompile or reverse engineer your purchase.
Most Flash content (other than RTMP requests for video, for
example) are
HTTP requests, which by nature means the content is
downloaded to your hard
drive, just like HTML documents, CSS files, JPGs, and GIFs.
Your browser
requests the files, downloads them to your hard drive, then
displays them
from your local copy.
> I know that it CAN BE DONE and here is an example of a
> file on the internet that cannot be saved or decompiled

> any software that I have come across
What you've seen, then, is merely the result of software
that uses
unknown (to you or to your sofware) encryption/obfuscation
algorithms. Keep
trying, and you'll eventually nail it.
At best, you can use obfuscators to temporarily deter a
certain segment
of the decompiling-inclined population.

Play swf file then go to URL

I have an animated logo in a swf file that I want to play
when the page loads and then I want the browser to be redirected to
another page. I have no idea how to do this, but I know it has
something to do with scripts. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thank you!

use simply getURL("pagetogo") inside your swf.
