HT3775 how I get an .flv file to play on my Mac?

How can I get an .flv file to play on my Mac?

If all you wan't to do is view the .flv video file and do nothing else to it, video players like VLC and Niceplayer will do the trick. Installing the PERIAN extension to Quicktime will also do the trick.

  • How to get a flv file to match the quality of a quicktime file?

    - here's a 400kbps flash video
    http://gelconference.com/mov/cc-flash-400kbps.html
    - here's the same footage at a *lower* bitrate, 391kbps, in
    quicktime
    http://gelconference.com/mov/cc.mov
    - QUESTION: why is the quicktime so much better-looking than
    the flash?
    what settings should i be using in flash to convert a dv file
    to an flv file?
    i prefer to show the footage in a flash player because it is
    cross platform.
    i appreciate any advice anyone has!

    Just thought i'd let you know, your links are broken so its
    hard to give you any advice. Depending on the pixel size of the
    movie, your data rate might be too low. The bigger pixel size of
    the file the higher data rate is needed to keep details clear and
    pixelation down.
    A good middle of the road data rate i've found is around
    1500kbps. If you are hosting the file, just make sure to set the
    buffer time to 3-4 seconds, to allow the users internet connection
    to keep ahead.

  • I imported different trips to different catalogs on different external hard drives.  Later renamed external HDs.  I want to combine catalogs and have my source (NEF) files all together on one drive.  I'm not really sure how to get those source files back

    I imported different trips to different catalogs on different external hard drives.  Later renamed external HDs.  I want to combine catalogs and have my source (NEF) files all together on one drive.  I’m not really sure how to get those source files back and get rid of the extra long path to where the source files are now located. If I re-link files to their current catalog (many different paths to files in same catalog) can I merge (import catalogs) into one master catalog?  Will the new (Master catalog) have the correct link to the source file?  If not, how or can this be done?
    I have tried to explain my situation as clearly as I can.  Do you understand my situation?
    This maybe something you don’t have time to help me with.  If not can you suggest somewhere I can get an answer?  I really need help.  PLEEEZZZ HELP ME.

    Is there any solution (other than buying
    I really think 'buying' is the best solution on this one.  Ideally, you would have at least five internal hard drives.
    System
    Projects
    Cache/Scratch
    Media
    Exports
    Use externals and network drive only for backup.

  • HOW TO TURN A .FLV FILE INTO AN SWF IN ADOBE?

    Questions,,,,,
    1. In a flash slide,,,,,How do I add effects to the movie,
    like an intro black curtain coming up from the top and closing down
    on the bottom,,,,,,to make it look more
    professional?,,,,,,,,,,,like this video-SUMMER NIGHTS-
    http://music.yahoo.com/ar-289037-videos--Lil-Rob
    2. How do I convert .flv files to swf files so I can upload
    them to my site,,,,,because thats all it excepts?

    Peace,
    I will try to answer both questions. You abviously know how
    to creat an .FLV file. when you load you files on the server you
    must place the .SWF and the .FLV in the same folder. With that you
    will create your link to the .SWF file.
    In regards to the other issue. I am incline to think that
    what you see is a video effect and not a Flash one. If I where to
    try this I would upload my video into the time line and add a new
    layor to hold my effect. This should do it. But it will of course
    make you .SWF larger than if you did the effect in a video editing
    program.
    I hope I helped some how.
    Peace

  • How to get a PDF file in iMovie ?

    Hello,
    I have a sketch as a PDF file on my desktop.
    How can I get this sketch in iMovie '11 ?
    Thanks for your answer !
    John

    Thank you, but I have to be more clear ...
    I received a drawing from a friend - a Windows user - as a "docx" file.
    When I clicked on it, it opened in Pages '09 version 4.0.5 with a message popped up stating : - Some warnings occurred. Would you like to review them now ? You can review warnings at any time by choosing View > Show Document Warnings.
    With "Don't Review" or "Review" commands.
    I clicked on "Review" and saw a Documents Warning stating a Missing font Calibri.
    Clicking on Share > Create a PDF document that can be viewed and edited with a PDF application, or viewed in a web browser. Image quality 'Good' . And command 'Next …' and saved as ' logos1.pdf ' on Desktop command EXPORT.
    It opened in Adobe Reader and I saw this message :
    - This document does not allow you to save any changes you have made to it unless you are using Adobe Acrobat 9, Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, or Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9. You will only be saving a copy of the original document. Do you want to continue? -
    The Adobe Reader vs 9.4.2 was put on my Mac years ago …
    I have the feeling I'm circling around a problem while NOT knowing how to get the sketch file in iMovie '11 …..
    Please tell me what do I do wrong ?
    Or should I ask my friend to resend the logo in another, and what file format ?
    Hope I could make myself understandable, after several years living as a dutchman in France ?

    That's just because he didn't use the "code" tags, so [ i ] made everything following it become italicized.

  • How to get the ard file of crystal reports

    Hi all,
    I have downloaded crystal reports from sap market place but i dont have .ard file for that how to transfer that reports into sap. How to get the ard file please help me out.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Murtuza Ahmed.

    When you click on your SAPCrystalSetup.exe and select the path to your add-on folder it will install the files and your ard file will be situated in your add-on folder.  Then you can start SAP up and install it from SAP. 
    So if your SAP install is in your local drive your ard file for crystal reports should be here C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\AddOns\SAP_CR
    Hope this helps.

    Woke up to find that , the file I left downloading through the night was not here afters hours of downloading time and bandwidth .

    I am mad against Mozilla because I do not have the time to re download. Here is my question:
    Is there a "Vault" or a "quarantine" folder where I can recover this file??
    (I know that the source of such messages is Google and that in the future I will uncheck a line on the options' security tab.This is not my problem.)
    My problem is: Can I find it somewhere and recover it without re-downloading??
    </blockquote>
    Unfortunately the file is not stored anywhere on your harddrive. It has been deleted entirely.
    If you think this file block is a "false positive" and that the file is actually safe, you could do one of the following:
    (1) Download the file using a downloader add-on that bypasses this security check. I heard about this in another thread but haven't tried it myself (and also, I don't know which add-ons to trust for this!).
    (2) Disable the Safe Browsing feature temporarily to get the file, then turn it back on. There is a checkbox in the Options dialog:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Security tab, it's the "Block reported attack sites" checkbox. The other checkbox relates to phishing sites and I don't think it affects downloads.
