I'm sure someone addressed this - interactive video in html 5

I'm a longtime Adobe user, as we move toward the future I see the html 5 css3 Dreamweaver pack prepares me for the steps ahead. I would think somebody has already answered this question but I have a client I did some Flash interactive videos for. real simple as rolling over a certain area in the .swf plays an audio clip. The client needs this to be viewble within html 5 so converting the flash to H264 is easy but what about preserving the interactivity?
I looked around but still cannot answer the client until I know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. I'm excited abiut the Adobe flash converter which I have seen the video on which will no doubt when ready for public will boost my business greatly as Flash created technology moves into the future.
Can anyone give me an update on how to address the question " can I convert a flash INTERACTIVE swf an HTML 5 standard format preserving the interactive features of Flash?
thx

Hi
First - There is nothing stopping you continuing to use swf's with html5 as the object/embed code used is still valid and recognised by html5.
Second - You are probably asking this question due to the fact that the iPhone/iPad does not allow flash content. Unfortunately there is no way to get flash to play on these devices, (at the moment, but this could / probably will change). To use interactive graphics on these devices requires the use of the canvas element and javascript, but unfortunately the canvas element are not usable on current versions of IE, (IE9 does allow them).
There is a javascript fix that will allow the use of canvas on IE versions prior to IE9 but I cannot recommend its use due to its speed of rendering except for very simple animations, (and I do mean very simple).
The general opinion of most designers/developers appears to be that unless your target audience is the iPhone/iPad, then continue to use swf's for such items for the next few years at least, after all, the purchasers of the iPhone/iPad did buy these devices, (in most cases) knowing that they could not render flash.

Is Captivate capable of producing this kind of Interactive video?

Is Captivate capable of producing this kind of Interactive video?
As shown here on http://vidzor.com/ ?

Thank you Rick!
This was a massive help. As of right now I think thats the main functionality I would need. A training video with the ability for the user to answer the correct question before continuing on to more training. Can I "pause" video in Captivate? I had come across this post in some of my earlier findings
"Chapter jumps can be accomplished in Captivate but you have to setup some custom programming in order to do it. It's not that complicated but it's important that I alert you to it now rather than finding it out later. One of the best Captivate users out there has an example of how to do this on her blog, Micro-Navigation in Adobe Captivate - Captivate blog. It's worth reading up on what she calls "micro-navigation" so you know what you would be in for."
Which lead me to believe that through the coding I can manipulate Captivate further. I think i'm in the right boat for now. If my company is looking for further interaction with video I will look into storyline.
Thanks again for the help!

Proper method for interactive video

Hi. It's been a while since I've used Flash/Actionscript, and I've been having trouble figuring out the proper way to do this. I'm hoping someone here can outline the proper methods.
Basically, I'm creating a Flash project where it will play a video, then at a certain point, stop and display some buttons, and then go to the appropriate video based on what button was pressed. Sort of a choose your own adventure type of thing.
Without knowing the current/ideal way of doing it, how I tried it was by having the first video (embedded into the project) on one layer, and at the end of that video, I have a stop() on another (script) layer (on the last frame of the video in the timeline), and I had the buttons (which appear on top of the video) on another layer at that same frame. So, in theory, it plays the video, hits the last frame, stops the timeline, and waits for one of the buttons to be clicked. Each button triggers and gotoAndPlay(), which takes the timeline to one of the other two videos that are located one after the other, after the first video, on the same (video) layer.
Problem is, I have a bit of a catch-22... I was aware that there would be sync issues between the video and it's audio (addressed by doing the audio as Sync or something in the audio properties)... however, I was suprised to see that the video does not maintain sync with the other layers (script). So, what happens is that it plays the video, but SEEMS to play it faster than the script layer, so it reaches the end of the video before reaching the (identical frame) location of the actionscript. As a result, the video loops, and the stop() is hit sometime during the start of the second playing of the video. The buttons act similar, appearing sometime AFTER the point in the video where they should.
I had embedded the video with the assumption that this would give me hard sync between it and the timeline, since it's physically there in the timeline, and you can see the frame at which it ends... and I thought then putting a stop() on that frame (but on a different layer), would guarantee that the stop code gets hit at the same time the end of the video was.
I've tried a number of things, like putting the actionscript code on the frame after the video on the same layer, figuring a single layer can't go out of sync with itself... but that didn't work either.
Looking into it, I saw that one option was to not embed the video, but to have it reference an external file (which, supposedly, would result in no sync issues). But, in doing that, I'm not aware of how the rest of the timeline would know when the video has reached certain spots of the video.
I'm sure the proper method is entirely different from what I'm doing, but I'm not familiar with other methods. I'm hoping someone can outline the proper procedures (in as much detail as possible, since I probably won't know about much of what you are explaining).
Keep in mind, again that this is basically what I want to do:
-Play video 1
-Stop timeline, display buttons, wait for response
-Based on which button is pressed, jump in the timeline to video 2 or 3 (...I'm assuming all the vids will be on one layer, one after the other, with a label at the start of each one)
Hope you can help. Thanks.

Hi, kglad. Conceptually, I understand, but I'm totally new to most of these things. I've worked with actionscript and flash in general, but am still very green when it comes to things like event listeners and some of the more technical coding.
I've been frustrated with the tutorial vids I've been finding, as they are often very generic (...5 minutes of video, only to show you how to load the component onto the stage, then point to a video). But, I did finally find one that seemed to address more detail. It's the ActionScript 3 Video Basics tutorial on gotoandlearn.com. All very techy code, which goes right over my head, but at least it's seemingly usable and relevant. I just don't like using coding/methods I don't fully understand, as then you are helpless if something goes wrong.
In answer to your question, what I'm after (in more detail) is this:
-A video plays (Intro video)
-After that video, a looping video plays, with buttons (Scene selection thumbnails) on top of it (Selection menu with looping background)
-Clicking on one of the scene thumbnails then goes to the scene player section
-Scene plays, and when it reaches the end of the clip, two buttons appear, and it waits (parked on last frame of the video via a stop() command)
-Pressing button A jumps the timeline ahead 2 frames to the A video (which is located right after the initial scene video, right after the stop()), and that video plays, and stops at the end (via another stop() command.
-Pressing button B jumps the timeline ahead many frames (past that second A video, over to the B video, which is the third clip on the video timeline, consisting of the initial scene, the A clip, and now the B clip), plays that and stops.
Now, I am 90% sure that the way I am currently doing this is inefficient, obsolete, and to anyone half-decent at Flash authoring, completely wrong... but it's the only way I currently know.
I've done the above like this:
Timeline has the first (Intro) video embedded, then the second (Scene Selection loop), with a label ('Loop') at the first frame, and a gotoAndPlay('Loop') on the last, with the graphics and code for the scene selection thumbnail buttons occupying the duration/span of that loop clip, on a different layer.
I have a MovieScreen movieclip, which has a series of one frame movieclips within it. Each of those movieclips is the full video of a scene. Think of the MovieScreen mc as a sort of Jukebox, containing a series of 1 frame 'records' (those being a movieclip that contains the video of each scene). Pressing one of the thumbnail Scene buttons in the Scene Selection simply moves the MovieScreen movieclip timeline to the appropriate 'record' (frame containing the appropriate movieclip that contains the scene you selected), and jumps the main timeline (via a gotoAndPlay()) out of that Scene Selection loop, to the next frame after it, which is a 'Selection made' clip (an exit animation), which plays, and then parks on the 'Play Scene' section.
The Play Scene frame of the main timeline simplly contains the Moviescreen movieclip, which (at this point) has had its own timeline jumped to the appropriate 'record' (movieclip within it), and that movieclip plays. This is my (probably laughably incorrect, yet functioning) method to have a global 'movie player' frame in the main timeline, but have it able to play any of the available videos, rather than having a moviescreen for each scene.
Certainly, I'd assume there is a far better way to do this, most likely with pure actionscript, where the scenes are called up, and things are dynamically generated... but, again, I don't know how to do that sort of thing.
My first attempt had me embedding the videos directly into the timeline, which had the benefit of having the clip literally there on the timelines, taking up the literal amount of frames, and being visible during the timeline editing. Problem is, it wouldn't play in sync with the rest of the layers (which was a real surprise, as I assumed that the whole point of embedding it would be to lock it to the timeline). So, my codes/graphics that were placed on other frames at the end of the video clip's timeline layer didn't trigger in sync with the end of the clip (...which still puzzles me).
My second attempt had the videos being called on as external clips, but that also had its share of problems, plus without the clips physically on the timeline, I had no way to know when the clip ended (...assuming I was to have the actionscript/graphics on a particular frame in the timeline... which I suspect now is wrong thinking).
My third attempt used the FLV component. First of all, the videos where about half the size that they should have been, plus where positioned half off the screen. Today, I managed to figure out how to remedy that, so that works. However, I soon realized that when placed on the stage, the resulting element on the timeline was an infinite duration, and not representitive of the duration of the clip, like an embedded vid would be... So, again, I had the problem of how to know when the clip ended, and where to place the script/graphics in the timeline.
Researching a bit more today, I see that you can read metadata from a clip, which may be relevant to triggering a stop() or a loop back or a gotoAndPlay()...although I'm not entirely sure how it would all work. I couldn't see an obvious way to loop a clip (from the FLV Playback properties). So, even though I suspect this is the proper way to be doing this, I'm completely lost on how to utilize it.
As well, I've been reading that the current version of the FLV Playback component has an issue with seamless looping... in that it supposedly can't. So, that's yet another problem.
Sorry for the novel, but I wanted to give everyone the full info on what I'm doing and what troubles I'm facing here. Sorry too for being green on this. I'd be happy to watch/read some tutorials on this, but really haven't found anything that either addresses things more than just 'load it onto the stage and select the video location', or ones that are the opposite end of the spectrum, and are way over my head.

Vertical line issue - How can we get Apple to address this?

Hi guys,
As can be seen in this forum (and a lot of other forums, as well), a lot of people are experiencing this problem on their 17" iMac G5 with iSight. Here are some pertinent details (which may be familiar to a lot of people but can be a primer for those who are just starting to experience the problem):
1. For most of us, these lines started appearing between 13-15 months after they purchased them. The lucky ones either had these failures occur during the first 12 months, or had APP.
2. The majority of these units can be traced to the Shanghai factory W8 (enter your S/N in this website to get the manufacturing information of your unit: http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html).
3. A similar issue occurred (or is occurring) with 17" PBs. From what I have read on the Apple PB forums, it seems that this has been a long standing issue and Apple has SUPPOSEDLY attempted to censor some of the posts discussing this. Note that these units can also be traced back to the same Shanghai factory.
4. The "iMac G5 Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues" which certain people have always been referring users to on posts discussing this type of problem obviously refers to a totally different issue (http://www.apple.com/support/imac/repairextensionprogram/) and is applicable only to first gen iMac G5s. I'm sure that everyone appreciates it but, at this point, it is quite clear that it is not the solution to our problem.
5. Based on the number of posts discussing this very same problem in the Apple forums, it is pretty obvious that these are not isolated issues. There are too many similarities (time of failure, how the numbers of line increase over time, manufacturing source, etc.)
6. Some people have suggested that unstable power sources may be the primary cause of the problem. However, based on the locations of the people with these problems who have posted in this forum, it seems unlikely. From what I can see, the problem happens whether you are from a highly industrialized country (where a stable power source can be expected) or a developing country (where power sources MAY be more unstable).
7. Apple has typically responded (to anyone who has taken the time to write or have their iMacs inspected) that this is not a known manufacturing defect issue. As such, the cost to repair this problem, which can go up to USD 500, will have to be borne by the owner.
8. Based on posts of some people who have had their units repaired, it is the LCD that has to be replaced. This is also supported by posts from people who have resorted to purchase a separate display as a workaround.
Now, the question is, *how do we get Apple to address this issue*? Do we all start writing Steve Jobs about it? Do we go to the press? Should we put up a website and Digg it to death? A spoof video on YouTube? MySpace? Or will we just suffer in silence? Suggestions anyone?
P.S. Suggestions that involve any sort of violence or industrial sabotage are not acceptable, please.
Note that Ale_Tog has put up a Flickr page where we can post photos of our poor iMacs. Just send the photo to [email protected] with the subject "Dead pixels on iMac". No text, just the photo attachment. (+Ale_Tog, if you read this, I hope you don't mind me posting this here. Also, I suggest that we at least put the first 5 chars of the serial number, the factory information which can be retrieved on the link in #2 above, and which country the unit is based.+). I highly recommend that everyone send a photo to show that these are not isolated issues.
To get an idea on how many people are experiencing this problem, here are a list of posts in these forums, as well as others, discussing this issue (feel free to add to this):

Yep. I feel Apple's 1 year manufacturer warranty for the iMac is not adequate, especially for an all-in-one unit with a relatively high price.
My iMac G5 started displaying a vertical cyan line about 4 weeks ago, only about 19-20 months after I bought it for Christmas in 2005.
I called up Apple to enquire what could be done and was told by their customer service that a rather long period had elasped since the warranty expired in 2006. So I was told to take the iMac to an authorised repair centre and Apple will not contribute to the cost of the repair.
I expect respectable service life from my computer and anything less than 5 years is totally unacceptable. Thus I seriously question the value proposition for the iMac in this respect. Does it mean that I have to replace my iMac every 2 years? The computer still feel reasonably zippy, I still have plenty of space left on my hard drive, but the screen is failing ...
Today another line (green) appeared on the screen ...
It is my understanding that a number of LCD monitor manufacturers are now providing 3 year warranties for their products. Now why should Apple only provide a 1 year warranty? Especially when the replacement option will cost more than buying an entire new LCD monitor with even better specifications?
Based on the number of responeses I have seen here, this is not a rare occurance and I seriously question their quality control in their manufacturing process. I think Apple should be responsible for these repairs, and also provide a 3-year warranty for their LCD screens.
My iMac's serial number is W8548Zxxxxx.
Sincerely yours, an unhappy Apple customer.

Is this interactive flash movie possible in Adobe Edge?

Hi,
I´ve done this interactive flash applikation:
http://bit.ly/Uy6GEF
Is it possible to create this exactly the same in adobe edge? If you click on a hotspot, then a 3d-video (this video is already done in a 3d-animation-software) with a transparent background appears over the car-layer and on click to "back" it softly disapears.
(For this online version, I´ve just put a compressed video into "Gasoline & Diesel system". Normally, every hotspot has a different video.
So, are those interactions possible in Edge?
Best regards,
Maw

Everything except for the alpha transparency video is easily doable in Edge.
Rather then trying to shoehorn html5 video with an alpha transparency into Edge (not sure if this is doable), you could potentially use a png sequence or spriteSheet to play back those animations. Though the file size will be very large, and Edge does not have native implementation for png sequences or spriteSheet playback. yet.
John Dunning built a plugin for Fireworks to export a spritesheet as an Edge symbol:

Interactive video presentation no flash

Hello everybody,
I am a Visualization Artist and I used to work long time ago doing website(I am a graphic designer too) I been aproached by an old client asking me to develop a "Interactive video presentation" of a product for Engineering purposes.
The final output should be Web and CD to be used a promotional media.
My first option was Flash but he questioned that because he want people that uses Ipad and other tables be able to see in a web interfase.
The main idea is play a short video demostrating the produc and funcionality, then the user should be able to stop and play repeat a chapter or jump to other charpter of the presentation.
I own Creative cloud and some 3D softwares so I think I should be fine software wise, but my question is if there is something New in Adobe that I can use instead of Flash to produce something like this?
Can I do everything at once or I need to prepare a video for Web in Flash an other for a CD and some App for tablets everything separated?
any gidance will be much apreciated.

This may not be the most efficient way to do this, but you could have the mouse click incriment a counter, and on the last frame of the loop have a statement basically saying if the counter is greater than 0, then play the second loop, and set up another mouse event to incriment a second counter if loop2 is playing, so on and so forth. Not exactly sure how you're planning to organize this, and what version of actionscript you plan on using so I can't really give you too much help in terms of the specific coding.

Clickable hotspots or tooltips on videos; interactive videos.

Hello all,
Forgive me if I'm posting this in the wrong forum. I'd like to know if what I'm proposing has been done before, and if so what some of the examples look like.
My idea is to embed clickable hotspots over a video. For example, we have a shot of a truck rolling down the highway. As it continues driving, different hotspots pop up over various parts of the truck, like axles, transmission, engines, etc. These hotspots can then be clickable, and a small tooltip/bubble pops up with a description about that part. As the video continues playing, different hotspots continue to be generated and available.
I've been poking around all over the web looking for either examples or programs that enable the effect. I've found that most "interactive videos" are based around two premises: shopping from within the video and pick your own storyline. Neither of which is necessarily what I'm looking for, so I've begun thinking that this might an After Effects/Flash based affair. I can use After Effects to generate the tooltips or 3D overlays of the various parts onto the original video, and use Flash to generate the approriate interaction.
As this video will be web based, my final idea was to run the video underneath a layer of code that generated both the sprites and the effects. The problem there is setting up the scripts so that they are timed perfectly with the video.
Any thoughts? If this isn't the place for this, could someone point out where I can get some insight? Much appreciated in advance!
Cheers.
D.

Hey D.
Read your recent question looking for examples of interactive video that looked at other user cases rather than the usual shoppable and choose your own adventure videos.
Thought you might be interested in having a look at wireWAX (www.wirewax.com). We started out much like you creating overlays and doing tracking in After Effects and then using Flash to apply the interaction.
wireWAX has since developed into an online tool that allows anyone one from the most techy creative like yourself, to the basic YouTuber, upload their own videos to the wireWAX studio. From there users can add their own tags to objects and people which are then tracked using our super intelligent tracking system ready for you to add your own overlays or choose from a range of widgets such as YouTube and Facebook. The platform now uses much more advanced image processing to do things like face detection and motion tracking in real-time and works across mobile and tablet too.
OK, sales pitch over, please do have a go. You can simply drop a video into the dropbox on the homepage and use the free tool to add interaction. We also work with brands/producers/filmmakers to create customized experiences on a paid-for service.
Here are a few examples of some videos you might find useful:
National Portrait Gallery Walkthrough
This video was created by one of our users using the free wireWAX tool. It allows viewers to click on pieces of the artwork to get more information either through a short text description or video in video interview with the curator.
https://www.wirewax.com/7002501/
BBC News
The BBC developed this engaging interactive experience to coincide with the anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Viewers could learn more about the ongoing impact and explore extra content clicking on the hotspots that interested them.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22185262
BBC One Luther
The BBC’s 2nd interactive wireWAX video was a trailer for their crime drama Luther. It included exclusive clips and unseen treats in a fitting stylised tag and overlay for the programme.

Adidas Messi gallery
A customised overlay for Adidas who created this clickable walk through using wireWax to allow Messi fans to click on memorabilia to discover more.

Hi there
Sorry for hijacking your thread as put by Dahveed. However I have resolved my issue so I thought I'll share it with the rest of you.
I checked for the error 3194 in youtube and I found some good videos that tell you how to resolve the problem. The issue I was facing was the actually (I know because I have resolved it now) the communication between my computer and apple server which can be fixed as following (if you are using windows):
There is file in following directory:
C:\Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
The file normally has no extension and it is in file format. You need to open it and make sure that every line that has apple server id starts with "#". In my case one of the line started directly with the ip address and then gs.apple.com.
Perform your restore/update after that and hopefully it should be resolved (mine did).
Cheers

Is there a phone number to call Adobe. I go around an endless loop pressing their contact info tabs? Maybe someone at this sight can help. I am new to digital photo - I have been a B&W film photographer for many years. I have a problem with a Macbook Air. It was working fine - I was using LR and a message came on the screen that said something like the memory was dangerously low. I stopped and tried to delete LR files. I couldn't do it. I closed the program and tried reopening and got the message that there is not enough memory available to open LR. I contacted Apple. They spent a half hour on the phone with me and eventually told me they didn't know how to help. The tech said that LR had gobbled up all the memory and said I should contact Adobe and ask where and how my photo files are stored and to delete them. I have several back-ups. Thanks - Arthur

This sort of error message only comes up for Lightroom when your hard disk is full. Indeed this has nothing to do with internal memory as that will be intelligently be dealt with. If you have a mac Book Air that is not so surprising as the cheapest versions come with very small hard disks and if you shoot raw with any recent camera, you'll fill up your hard disk very quickly and you can probably only store a few months of pictures if you are a typical photographer. So the bottom line is that you need to create some room on your hard disk. You should move some of your originals to an external hard disk. You can also delete some of your backup copies of your catalog file that Lightroom automatically generates every few days and that quickly gobble up hard disk space. So first figure out how full your hard disk is. To see that, go to the apple menu, hit -> About this Mac -> More info->Storage. You should see your internal hard disk on top and you'll find that it is almost entirely full with photos. Now find your Lightroom catalog file using Finder. It is usually in a folder in the Pictures folder in your home directory. You should see a Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file, a previews file and a folder called backups. Inside the backups folder, you'll find a lot of subfolders. They have names that show the dates the backups were created. If you have backups of your entire hard disk, you can delete these backups when they are older than a few months. I usually only keep the last 4 around. Just drag the folders into the trash can on the dock on the bottom of your screen and empty the trash. This will probably free up enough space that Lightroom will already run again. Now start thinking about where you will want to store older images. If you have a good USB3 or Thunderbolt hard disk that is probably the best option. There is a video here by Adobe that has some instructions on how to do this: Is Your Hard Drive Full? Here’s How to Move Images to Another Drive in Lightroom. « Julieanne Kost's Blog If that doesn't work because you don't have enough hard drive space to run Lightroom yet, here is another set of instructions to move your files using the finder to the other hard disk: How do I move only my photos to another hard drive, leaving the catalog where it is? - The Lightroom Queen. If you follow that, as soon as you confirm all your images are on the new hard disk, you can delete them from your internal one. She is not so clear about that part but if you don't delete the originals that you moved off you don't free up space. You should move the folder structure over to the new hard disk and then reconnect the folders in Lightroom. That should make it refind all your images.
That said, if you are uncomfortable with the computer in itself, your best bet is to find a local photography club. There is invariably a Lightroom savvy person in there that could help you move your files. That might be your best bet if you are uncomfortable moving these yourself. A general mac savvy person like you would find at an Apple store or so generally will not be able to help you with this except when they are photographers themselves and know Lightroom. You might get lucky with that.

I updated to iTunes 10.5 on Vista. As with iTunes 10.0, The DEP will not allow iTunes to open. WHEN IS APPLE GOING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE? I can't update my telephone or iPod. I can't even open the iTunes program!!!

I am sick of dealing with this issue. I wish not that I had never even started using any Apple products, beginning with iTunes. WHEN IS APPLE GOING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND MAKE ITUNES SOMEHOW COMPATIBLE WITH DEP IN WINDOWS VISTA?
That being said, Is there any way to resolve this? What I did in the past is completely wipe ALL Apple files from my computer, and install an older version of iTunes. It was at least functional. It seems that any version of iTunes 10.0 or more recent is not compatible with the Data Execution Prevention in Windows. You can not remove iTunes from DEP, yet DEP prevents iTunes from running.
The down side is that I can't get the latest updates for my iPhone or iPod. Now, I have a new phone for my husband that needs syncing on my iTunes, and I can't do that because iTunes won't even open.
Can somebody help me out with this, please?

OK, lets do a complete overhaul to make sure it's working ok.
First to check your Windows system file for any corruption:
Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
type in
sfc /scannow
let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
Restart the computer.
Start iTunes and see if it is ok.
If it doesn't, will have to go through the whole process of uninstalling and installing acccording to the following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
(Referenceinstructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components)
3. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch

Since updating to 3.6.1 I don't get an empty browser window in my tool bar whe. it opens --- just a list of search engines. I can't find anything in "Help" or the FAQ's that seem to address this. My only choice seems to go back to Safari.

I am not sure what your problem is, can you give more details.
One possibility is you may be in full screen mode, for details on fixing that see the [[menu bar is missing]] article.
If you are missing various toolbar items, see the [[back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] article.
If your problem is something else please give more details.

How to make interactive video in Flash?

Hello,
We are trying to create an interactive video in Flash. Basically, we need to put this video in our game, and players should be able to pause/replay/play it.
I found some tutorial about this topic, but all of them were created more than 2 years ago. They all use FLV/F4V files.
But now, Adobe Media Encoder doesn't support exporting FLV file.
As what mentioned in this page:
removal of FLV and F4V export features from Adobe Media Encoder, After Effects, and Premiere Pro | After Effects regio…
Flash team seems recommend users to input mp4. video rather than FLA video.
So is that mean we can use mp4 file to do interactive video, adding Action Script on the importing mp4. video?
Thank you.

either use mp4 files or use an older ame.

Is Apple ever going to address this force reload problem in Safari?

Seriously, Safari 5.1 is, for all intents and purposes, completely disabled now. I leave a lot of windows and tabs up at any given time, and when I return to a window after having been someplace else (usually coding in a plain text environment), the window reloads. If I try to stop it, I get the dreaded message, "Webpages are not responding, so loading cannot be stopped. Do you want to force reload this page and all pages in other tabs and windows?" Obviously I do NOT always want to to that! As of yesterday afternoon, Safari doesn't run at all, because it has never stopped reloading pages. It's been doing this for over twelve hours. I'm reading messages all over the support community that indicate MANY people are having this problem. When is someone at Apple going to address this??

I am still having this problem occasionally, but one thing I did that helped immensely was to:
1.) Disk Utility > First Aid > Repair Disk Permissions, and
2.) Empty Cache in Safari (maybe even for extreme issues just "reset Safari." It's actually no big deal.)
I was told to do this; I am by no means an expert, so kudos to my buddy for this solution--hope it helps!

I'm sure someone addressed this - interactive video in html 5
