How to stop flv-container swf buffering?

Hi all,
We have a swf that plays an flv on the homepage of one of our
websites. Unfortunately the site is exceeding its bandwidth because
everytime someone arrives on the homepage the flv (at approx 30Mb)
is buffering whether they watch the video or not.
Is there any way to prevent the video buffering until the
user clicks play? I have Flash 8 and Flash CS3 but can only use
Flash 8/AS2.0 files with our CMS.
Thanks!
Becki

There's no functionality in the player that would allow you to control this; however, I'm having a hard time thinking of what problem you're trying to solve by asking for this feature.  Is this to preserve bandwidth on a metered account?

  • In Flex 3 how to Stop and Replay .swf animation created in Flash

    Hi
    I have an animation file that is created in Flash (I think
    CS3). In Flex if I import it inside a SWFLoader or if I import it
    as an Image. It plays once and stops. Then I can not replay it. I
    also can not pause it when its playing.
    I have tried few things based on help and code available in
    the Web to of no help. I have tried to convert the swfLoader
    instance to a movie clip like so to stop
    var c:MovieClip = swfLoaderHeaddress1.content as MovieClip;
    c.stop();
    <mx:SWFLoader x="53" y="116" width="206" height="255.3"
    visible="true"
    source="assets/animations/curatorial/ZoomHeadress_2nd.swf"
    id="swfLoaderHeaddress1"/>
    It does not work.
    I have not created the .swf animation, I am not sure how it
    is done. I belive it may not be using any ActionScript as I know
    the artist who created it does not know ActionScript. Does
    something need to be done inside the Flash to support the stop and
    play? Or is there a way to restart/replay stop a .swf animation in
    Flex 3 no matter how (and whether or not its developed using
    ActionScript) its developed in Flash?

    One way is she has to add some AS code to the animation, or
    you can do it yourself.
    In swf there must be something like this:
    var connReciever:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
    connReciever.client = this;
    connReciever.connect("fromFlexToSWF");
    function myFunction(parameter:SomeClass):void {...}
    And in Flex:
    var connSender:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
    connSender.send("fromFlexToSWF", "myFunction", [..args]);
    The other way: in case with just play/stop there is a way to
    resolve this by using that Flex Component Kit (or maybe "Flex Skin
    Design Extension", i do not remember), it is something like she
    just adding labels to animation frames then she exports it with
    Flex Kit and then you can work with it like with an object with
    "states".

  • 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 stop 12 flv files all loading at once

    Hi Guys,
    Ive just created a page with 12 FLV players, all to play
    audio, problem is, when you click open the page, all the tracks
    seem to be loading into the players.
    Can some one please tell me how to stop this, Im a flash
    newbie so please leave me tips on how to do this.
    Also is there any code i can put in the html page, or will i
    need to recode each FLV seperately.
    Many thanks for your help.
    Tobes

    There are a couple of ways I think would work.
    1. Use only one Playback Component. At the appropriate time,
    change the content of that single player using
    instanceName.contentPath = "new file name";
    2. If you use multiple players, set the parameters to not
    automatically load. At the appropriate tim use
    "instanceName.load();"

  • How do I convert from AVI or FLV to SWF file?

    First, I'm a complete Flash novice...this is the first time
    I've dealt with any FLV or SWF files. So, please forgive my
    ignorance on these topics. I have several small AVI files and have
    successfully converted them to FLV format via Premiere Pro CS3 and
    Adobe Media Encoder. But the client is also asking for SWF files of
    the same videos. I've looked and looked for a way to save SWF
    files. I tried pulling the video into Flash CS3, and saving as SWF,
    but since I know nothing about using Flash, I don't seem to be
    doing it correctly...seems like I'm getting just a single blank
    frame. I've looked at the dozens of third party programs that claim
    to be able to convert FLV to SWF, but the one I downloaded "Free
    Video to Flash Converter" generated an SWF file that doesn't seem
    to be playable anywhere. If there is a click-by-click method for
    using Flash to perform the conversion, I'd be ever so grateful.
    Again, please forgive my Flash-ignorance. Thanks for your help.

    Why doesn't Flash have a built-in capability to convert FLV
    to SWF? It's an obvious need and there are 3rd party programs of
    varying quality that do it. Why should people who have already
    purchased Flash need to look for something that handles this OK and
    then install it on their machines?

  • Plugin-container.exe brought my PC to its knees. How to stop this?

    I had absolutely no response from my computer for several minutes. After repeatedly trying to open the task manager, I finally succeeded. I noticed that plugin-container.exe was running at over 50%. I attempted to close all the running processes, but they were hung. I finally had to shut off my PC. One of your background processes should not be hijacking my computer for minutes! Please fix this!!!!!!
    Also, your submit feedback is not working.

    I found the way to stop using plugin-container.exe from somewhere and it works.
    Steps to stop plugin-container.exe process:
    * Open Firefox web browser.
    * Type about:config in the address bar and press Enter key.
    * A warning will appear. Ignore it and press the "I』ll be careful, I promise!" button.
    * In the Filter field type dom.ipc. Six preferences will appear for the filter dom.ipc.
    * Ignore first and last preferences. Toggle (double-click) each of the four remaining preferences to change the value from "true" to "false".
    Explanation: The crash protection feature in Firefox 3.6 is enabled for certain plugins only. The four preferences that we modified here specifies four different out-of-process plugins. They are the the NPAPI test plugin, Adobe Flash, Apple QuickTime (Windows) and Microsoft Silverlight (Windows). These plugins are specified in a separate dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.<filename> preference by default is set to true. We can disable them by changing their value to false. And thus plugin-container.exe will not run. By default the preference dom.ipc.plugins.enabled is already set to "false". So, no need to touch it. The dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs is also not important here as other values are false.

  • How do I convert a .swf to .flv

    Hi,
    I'm currently developing content for a flash e-learning
    environment that requires .flv extension. I'm using Captivate 3 for
    the task of creating the content, but have not found a way to
    export or convert the .swf output of Captivate to make it .flv
    I'm totally at a loss - can anyone help?

    I'm not sure this will help, but what I know is that the FLV
    format is designed for streaming or progressive download of video
    from the server to the user's browser by converting it to the flv
    format via an import procedure into a Flash doc. Normally I use
    Flash to import a movie into a Flash file layer, add a sound layer
    for, say, a background music loop, on another layer and publish it
    as a swf and flv, using the Component Inspector to set the rewind
    to "true" or "false".
    This process creates two required files: the final swf and an
    flv which calls the swf when the page opens or other event occurs
    on the web page. The user experience is absent the jerky appearance
    that often occurs from swf alone or movies alone.
    The video component that is imported into my Flash doc as
    described in my first paragraph above, can either be a .mov from
    anywhere or one I create in Flash and export as an .mov
    I don't know about formats other than .mov I think it depends
    on your final deployment, i.e. web, dvd, whatever.
    I have not used captivate, but if it will create a .mov for
    you, should do it. You may have, however, other controls to build
    in as well. Flash 8 and above allows you to do that in the process
    of creating the .flv
    Then, you must load the .flv and swf onto the server at the
    same level. Or, you must make other code changes so the flv "finds"
    the swf. A different path can be entered using the Component
    Inspector in Flash.
    Hope that helps.

  • How to stop imported video from looping?

    I imported a very short video clip to my timeline. I want it to play only once. Then the last frame of the video should stay visible and static, as a background. And I want to start my animation then; after the video plays once. How do I achieve this? Right now, when I export as SWF, only video plays and loops. It doesn't even show anything after that's on the timeline after the video...
    Thanks

    there's no enough info to justify a tutorial.
    click insert>new symbol>movieclip>ok.  click file>import>import video>tick on your computer>click browse>navigate to your flv>click ok>tick embed flv in swf and timeline>next>next>finish.
    add a layer to the timeline that contains your video and, add a keyframe to the last frame of the layer and, in the actions panel, add: stop()
    after creating a movieclip (eg, flv_mc) with your video on the movieclip's timeline, drag the movieclip (flv_mc) from the library panel to your main timeline.

    The video would have whatever size it is encoded as, and then the player could display that at whatever size it desired.

  • Reg: How to Stop Polling of JDBC Adapter without Scheduling the adapter

    Dear Gurus,
    Here I am having one requirement. My clients wants to send data from JDBC adapter (ORcale System table) to R3 system via RFC.
    His Requirement::
    1. He is not telling the time of data flow from Oracle server so that based on that we can schedule the adapter in the Communication Channel monitoring (Availablitiy Time Planning) or Else we can Schedule by deciding the setting of the polling interval time.
    2. He is telling that When ever he waants to send the data he will place one dummy file in the File Adapter FTP location so that it will became an Indication for u to poll the jdbc adapter and to transfer the data to R3.
    3. Untill he keeps the file or gives indication he doesn;t want to communicate with Oracle server due to some security and it s a most important data base he doesn't want to disturb that Oracle Server as so many business are running  on that.....
    We Proposed::
    1. Atleast you need to tell the scheduling time or poll interval time so that we can schedule our adapter.
    but he s not accepting for this
    2. Atleast U need to give access for Data base to enter one more extra field like STATUS CODE so that we will add one number and we keep on Update in the Update table and based on that Update table statement it will poll.
    but he s not even accepting for this
    3. Finally we prposed that to create another table in the Oracle SYstem as Dulplicate Table which is similar to Standard Orginal table when ever he wants to pick the data please keep that data in this Duplicate TABle so that JDBC adapter will pick the data from thsi TABLE instead of picking the data from that standard table so that it will not effect any standard table data in the table.
    but he s not even accepting for this
    We have done some R & D:::
    1. WE approached even through BPM and via switch conditions is one scenario
       FILE RECEIVE >SWITCH CONDITION> RECEIVE AND SEND or else EXIT
    2. Using correlation in anotehr scenario means correlating File adapter and JDBC and based on one dynamica value it will goes to SEND STEP ( RECE IVE --> RECEIVE --> SEND STEPS )
    Even though we know this...concept that...we jsut tried::
    In BPM we can control the flow in XI 3.0 but we cannot Stop the Polling of JDBC adapter at backend because one the data comes from FILE adapter it will keep on HOLD untill it receives the JDBC from Oracle then based on the condition or Correlation it will goes futher SEND step means after that file adapter is picking file or not ...what ever it may be JDBC will polls at backend and brings that data to BPM"
    Hence sugest me How to Stop Polling of JDBC Adapter without Scheduling the adapter or else using STATUS CODE Update statements in JDBC Tables 
    Regards:
    Amar Srinivas Eli

    Hi! All,
    Finally I decided to do the scenario in two steps:
    1: FILE REQ --> JDBC REQ -->JDBC RES --> FILE RECV
    2: FILE RECV --> RFC
    But I am getting issue while doing first scenario
    Desgn :
    I have created 2 Synchronous interfaces :
    1) FILE 2 JDBC REQ
    In this a) out put message is FILE  Req
              b) Input msage:; FILE RES
    2} JDBC2FILE RECV
            a) Output mesage;; JDBC REQ
            b) Input Msge :: JDBC Response
    Mappings:
    1) File REQ-->JDBC REQ
    2) JDBC RES-->FILE RES
    Interface mappings:
    1: FILE 2 JDBC REQ--> JDBC 2 FLE RECV
    CONFIGURATION ::
    1: One Seder File CC
    2: Two reciever CC's one is for JDBC RECEIVER and other s FILE RECEIVER
    3; One Sender Agreement
    4: 2 Recver agreements
    5: One Interface Determination and
    6: One RECCV Determination
    My Question;;
    1. First let confirm whether my development steps are right or not ?
    2: Another thing s I am not sure reg Configuration Steps means
    whetehr one interface determination and one Receiver Determinations are required or not as these are synchronous Interfaces
    3: main Issue is::::
    If my scenario s FILE2RFC2FILE then I will get RFC response automatically but here issue is this is JDBC
    My reqquirement is By sending one Field from fILE to JDBC REQ it needs to send entire TAbLE records as a Response to file as XML
    without having Sender JDBC how can I send the JDBC Res to FILE and If that is the case then again JDBC adapter is polling which is contradict to the client requuirement which i explained above.
    pleas suggest me the Detailed steps mainly Colloboration agreements and logical routings and
    also explain in detail if i can  go for BPM
    Also give cleear blogs but before giving make sure that it contains detailed screen shots because aIready gone thorugh
    Scenario File-JDBC-RFC
    File<-->JDBC Sync coomunication.

  • How to stop and start only the process of Oracle Application Express?

    I'd like to know how to stop the process of Oracle Application Express on my server installed oracle express package.
    After installed Oracle Express edition, not only oracle database server processes but also Oracle Application Express, such as http server, is started automatically...
    I hope to stop and start Application Express on demand but is this feature enabled?

    Oracle Apex is an API, if that helps you understand / visualize. You do not start Apex process nor stop it.
    When an Apex session starts it starts calling the API.
    You can however start / stop the listener. It may be OHS, ApexListener and the J2EE container running it, OC4J or any other "server" that you are using.
    The built-in EPG is something like an API again, you cannot start / stop it but you can disable/enable it with DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT API.

  • How do you display a swf video / videos when you mouse over

    How do you display a swf video / videos when you mouse over, It'll be something like a pop up but just that it doesn't open in another windows but within the same window and will be like a pop up roll over image.

    Thank you for the reply.
    I've been putzing around with it and came across the 'SetEventHandler' object and thought I'd try and make that one work.
    Here's what I've got so far.
           <mx:SetEventHandler target="{turnAroundMovie}" name="handleMovieClip" handler="stopMovie()"/>
    And then my fuction.
       <mx:Script>
            <![CDATA[
                private function stopMovie():void{
                    turnAroundMovie.stop(); <!-- here's where I'm getting stuck -->
            ]]>
        </mx:Script>
    My first instinct was the simple stop(), but that didn't fly.  I even added a stopMovie frame in my .swf and tried a gotoAndStop('stopMovie'); but that didn't fly either.  And that's kind of where I'm stuck at.

  • FLV to SWF to embed in a PDF?

    Hi All,
    I have been given a pdf (possibly built with InDesign?) and
    two flv files. I have to embed the video into the PDF. How do I do
    this, or more accurately, what is the best way to do this.
    I have Acrobat Professional 8 and the Professional Studio
    suite, including Flash Pro 8, at my disposal. I think I need to
    convert the flv to swf (how is this best achieved) and then embed
    the swf into the PDF using Acrobat Pro 8 (how is that best
    achieved)?
    The video's are no longer than 1.30 minutes, fairly static
    (man speaking at a desk and woman cooking).
    Thanks for any pointers.

    With the link tool of Adobe Acrobat you can overlay a link which does nothing.
