How to put play controls on a swf

Hi,
  I want to put some SWF files on a web page.  I don't want them to autoplay, I want them to have controls, or at least click the image to play.
I read something about "skins" in some posts about CS3.  It seems like CS5 doesn't insert a skin when you are adding SWF?  How can I easily do this?
Thanks very much
Bob

Hi,
I always prefer the specialists for each task. I use to convert from an mp3 file, for example (more see Google), this here:
http://www.hootech.com/mp3_to_swf_converter/
especially as it is in my opinion not too expensive. Here an only player example, so as the program generates the selectable skins.

And as you said righly, the visitor should be able to turn the player on or off.

  • Putting player controls on a swf (not flv)

    I've created a .swf "movie" in flash - you hit enter, an mp3
    lecture starts playing, and slides of text appear at the
    appropriate times.
    Now I want to put it on the web, but I'd like to be able to
    skip through the presentation/lecture with a seek bar, and
    pause/rewird/fast forward with buttons. I'm creating a lot of these
    .swf movies/presentations, and I don't know much about flash or
    action script, so I'd like to keep it simple. Is there an
    embeddable player or something that can load my .swf movie and play
    it and seek through it, or can I drop some player controls right
    into the movie itself?
    I've seen a few players that can show these kinds of controls
    for flv movies, but none for .swf movies. Is there an easy solution
    built into flash that I'm missing?
    Thanks

    This is also the problem I want to solve. I generated a Flash
    movie with frame by frame animation. Each frame is interactive with
    many dynamic movie clips, and some actions are defined on them. I
    want to use FLVplayback component to control the play of the Flash
    movie.
    After I output the Flash movie to avi format, I found all the
    dymanic movie clips disappear (only a few static texts exist).
    After the conversion from avi to flv format, I got the same thing:
    all the dymanic stuff is gone.
    How can I keep the interactive dymanic movie clips, and use
    FLVPlayback to play the Flash movie? Any good suggestions to
    achieve this?
    Thanks,

  • How to put controller to a Flashmovie (swf) in Director?

    I have imported a swf-file into Director. The flashmovie works perfectly. The only thing I need is a controller to the movie. I can´t find in anywhere. I can just find it to Quciktime and Realplayer. Can I find this in Director? Or do I have to do it outside Director in a nother program? And if so, how to do it! I need buttons like: play, stop, pause and more... I had been very graetful if anyone could give me and answre to this.

    Thank you very much for the help.
    I got my flashmovie with controllbar working on the webpage. But I have several questions!
    1. I put all three files on the server to get the movie playing. I meen the movie (.flv), the player (.swf) and the controllbar (.swf). Is this necessary to put all three files to the server?
    I used Cute FTP to transfer the files.
    2. When I import the main SWF file to Director, I cant see the movie. Its all black. But later when I have created a shockwavefile and html-file, I can see it the movie on the webb. Why is it like this. Its very hard to place the movie exactly in Director when I cant see it. Is there somting I have forgot?

  • How do i play my videos in flash file after moving SWF file to website?

    Hello all,
    I am having some problems showing my videos in flash after moving it anywhere besides my computer.
    I published my flash file once as a exe. file and sent it to another computer, where it all worked but my videos, which didn't show up at all.
    I also published them as SWF files, then put them up on my free website (where i don't have access to the ftp) and the videos still aren't there.
    The videos will play fine in an SWF file on my computer, but i am assuming when they are away from the videos, they don't have a source to access them.
    I also tried sending the videos along with the SWF files when sending to other computers and it still doesn't work.
    I now have a free hosted website (with wix.com if that makes any difference) with my flash work on, but no videos. I even tried to embed a youtube video into the scenes the videos are meant to appear, and put the videos on youtube, then i discovered you can't put that sort of HTML into flash.
    Does anyone know how to show the videos on these sort of website, or even better, how to keep them in original file when sending them, so they show on other computers.
    Sorry if I've waffled but I'm trying to clear up my situation .
    Any help would be super, many thanks,
    Flasher87

    i am using the website wix, so in order to put the swf file up you just click the "Upload SWF" button, so i don't know how i could put the videos along with the swf, the swf is just sat on the page once i upload it.
    second, when using this type of website do you know how i'd go about giving the website the permissions to play flv files?
    Thank you.

  • How to put mp3 along in flash file and control stop start

    Can someone tell me how to put mp3 which is just speaches done, be put alone in a flash file. Do i have to import sound? I wanted to be able to put 3 different mp3 files in flash and have people able to click on any sound and hear it. Be able to play and start and pause a sound. Is it possible are should I use something other than flash. Are should I convert to mp3 into another format and put in flash.
    Thanks for you help,

    Yes, you need to import sound. It's just File>Import>Open External Library (in CS4, the third step may be different for others), and then browse to the files you want. They'll be put into the library.
    To do what you're asking, I would put the sounds into each of their own movie clips, and have buttons inside the movie clips to control the timeline. For instance, the pause button would just have the onRelease = function(){ stop(); }; code applied to it.
    Does this help?
    EDIT: Also, mp3 is good for Flash.

  • Flash SWF rotator - how do i play swf's in order

    I have a simple task thats taking way too long.
    I have a few swf movies that are going to play on a billboard
    like stage, one after another, for example, this application could
    be an swf ad rotator....
    questions:
    1.) how do i know when the first swf is over?
    I guess i could watch the frames, but isn't there a simple
    way (in actionscript) to play say a list of urls like
    http://mysite.com/1.swf
    http://mysite.com/2.swf
    http://mysite.com/3.swf
    http://mysite.com/4.swf
    //ok so put them in an array,
    var myArray:Array = new Array();
    myArray.push("
    http://mysite.com/1.swf");
    myArray.push("
    http://mysite.com/2.swf");
    myArray.push("
    http://mysite.com/3.swf");
    myArray.push("
    http://mysite.com/4.swf");
    trace(myArray); // one,two,three, four
    //now why cant i load the first one
    var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", 2);
    var billboard:MovieClip =
    mc.createEmptyMovieClip("billboard", mc.getNextHighestDepth());
    billboard.loadMovie(myArray[0]); // first swf
    billboard._x = 0;
    billboard._y = 0;
    /* so far so good, except the first swf loops
    why can't i just do this logically
    load the first movie
    read the length of frames of the loaded movie
    say half way thru the playing of the first movie, load the
    next
    when the first movie is finished, play the next
    the key is how do I check to see if the first swf is
    finished?
    use a frame watcher function?
    any help would be way cool
    rick oneil
    kingston, jamaica

    that was typo, i'm a bit farther...
    in the code , the output window shows the first billboard swf
    frames ticking down to the end.
    questions:
    1.) the second movie plays but i cant seem to test the
    current frame?
    2.) how can i loop in a different way, at will say in a
    finction to test the movie location?
    there must be an easier way to do the following:
    obtain the url list, for now I'll just populate the array,
    eventually code a recordset to feed the urls dynamically.
    load and play the frst swf from frame 2 (frame i is the
    stopped state in the loaded swf's)
    while the first is playing, start loading the second, in
    another mc
    when the first swf is finished (ie. _currentframe ==
    _totalframes)
    play the next same way and repeat untill the last swf in the
    array
    then loop the playback to the top ( ie if say a loop
    parameter is true).
    to play the entire list again.....

  • How can I put parental controls on laptops my kids already own?

    Hi all,
    I bought my two daughters MacBook Airs this year, and they're great of course.
    While setting up the MacBook Airs, the setup required user names and passwords for the accounts.  So they have those.  Each kid is the administrator of her computer, it therefore seems.
    I would like to put parental controls on the MacBook Airs now.  (They're good kids, but I'm concerned about all the adult stuff on the internet.)  Is it too late?
    Do I need to set everything up again so that I'm the Administrator and they're the users?  On previous (PC) laptops, I hated this, because then I had to sign in every time there was a software update and such.
    Is there a way to set up parental controls after the fact now in a way where I won't have to sign in all the time to troubleshoot their computers?   Do I have to delete their current accounts, set up a new account for them and an account for me as "administrator"?  Will that become horribly cumbersome?
    Any experiences and advice most welcome.  Thank you.

    Admin rights are held in the Users & Groups Preference pane.
    Log in as her.
    Create a new user for you and give that user Admin rights.
    Log her out.
    Log in as you and take her admin rights away.
    Set Parental Controls.

  • Can you put Video Controls on an .flv video?

    I have an .flv file in my .fla file.  However, when I play the movie, it simply plays the movie along the timeline.  Is there a way to put video controls on this file?  Or do I need to use the videoPlayback option?
    If I do need to use the videoPlayback option, how do I make sure that the video always work, even if I move it to a different computer (because the references to the movie will change)?
    Thank you very much in advanced.
    -TitanVex

    Hi Ned,
    Thank you for your reply!
    I guess I mean that when I specify the path to my flv file and I export the swf file, the swf won't play the flv video if I move the swf file to another computer.  Does that make sense?
    Thank you for the answer though, I will use FLVPlayback!

  • Encore to flash website without play-control during playback

    How do I disable the menu which appears during playback?

    >If you put the video to a blank menu as a motion menu background then Encore won't export the play controls to that part!
    Nice workaround!
    Note that if the video is too long and motion menus exceed 1GB (in MPEG-2 for DVD format), Encore may throw an error at build time.
    But perhaps not, if only building to Flash?
