Import avi save fla

Hi, New to flash and scripting. I have about a 1000 .avi
files to import(embed,separate sound,encode low flash 8) into a
pre-made template (5 timeline layers and a graphic), position and
attach a separated video item and audio item.
Then save as a .fla files under an edited file name. I've
been trying to write a javascript to batch process these with some
success.
The problems are: scripting through the importing menus
(completely automating process), altering the documents names while
creating new files.
I've seen the batch code posted elsewhere in the forum and
based my code on it, that and tinkering around I have managed alot,
I'm just not sure if javascript flash is able to handle my
remaining problems.
I hope someone can help, I'd like 50 hours of tedious work
reduced to 10 hours of autopilot.
appreciate any suggestions, code samples or methods:
Add template
change document name
save unsaved file without clicking
Will post my final code when working to help anyone else who
finds themselves in same sinking boat.

hey
i dont know if you are still have these issues or not but if
you do just email me what they are and I'll try to solve them
beacuse it looks like i know the answers to your questions.

How to fix dropouts in imported AVI files?

I am having audio problems on imported AVIs. Using FCP4, i have imported some 45 min AVI files and rendered them on the FCP timeline. ON a timeline of 7 subclips, the first 4 clips play and the remaining 3 clips are silent, even though all display waveforms.
And there's another problem. Of the first few clips that DO play, there is a choppy dropout happening, like the audio drops one frame every half a second. It's a continuous rough and choppy playback effect on the audio. The video portion of the files is fine.
thx
John

Try converting the AVI files to a QuickTime codec that matches your FCP Sequence settings prior to import. AVI is a wrapper or container the hold A/V content that could have been made from any number of codecs, not all of which work with FCP very well. Chances are that the files you imported are one of those.
Also make sure that the files you import are not on the boot drive (desktop, user's home folder, etc) and that all hard drives have at least 15% of free space available.

Problems in importing avi file

I have problems\ in importing avi file..
when i try to import an avi file,, it is written that there is a message "unsupported format or damaged file"..
What should I do then?
I use Windows Vista Ultimate..

Welcome to the forum. As Harm points out, AVI is but a wrapper, and can contain all sorts of data inside. This ARTICLE might give you some insight into working with AVI's.

Importing avi files into jsp pages

hello all. im new to jsp and java. i would like to know how i could import .avi files from my MySQL database (where ive given paths for the avi files) into a jsp page. i am basically trying to make an application that allows users to select particular video files and play them. the user has the ability to upload and delete these videos

newbie4337 wrote:
im sorry i guess i didn't phrase that properly. i meant to say that i had saved the paths in the database If you have some saved URLs in the database (URLs to where these avi files can be found)
you just need to retrieve the URLs and use them when generating links (<a href="..."></a>) in the html produced by your JSP.
You have already given the paths in the html generated by your jsp? Paths as in URLs?
Then you must already have a servlet deployed that accepts HTTP requests for .avi URLs and reads the relevant .avi from the database and serves back an avi stream with the right mime type (video/x-msvideo) in the headers...
([w3schools|http://www.w3schools.com/media/media_mimeref.asp]).
could you give me some more info on that?If the URLs are hosted somewhere else you do not need any of this.

Premiere CS5 import avi clips without sound. How can I import avi clips with sound without convert?

Dear Adobe Forum,
I have the following problem, please help:
I would like to import avi clips in adobe premiere. All clips have the same avi codec. But unfortunately my adobe premiere does not import the sound of a few
avi clips. It is wired because about 10 out 70 avi clips which have all the same avi codec does not work with sound in premiere CS5. In the timline premiere import the video and audio line but there are no audio waves in the about 10 avi clips. additonally premiere plays the 10 avi clips in the source monitor without sound. Furthermore when I open the 10 avi files without adobe premiere they have sound, but with premiere there are no sound in the 10 avi clips.
What can I do, so that I can import all avi files with sound. I do not want to convert each of the avi files because then they have not a good quality and it is to complicated and it takes to much time to convert all files in this video project and in the other video project in my future.
Consequently How can I import all avi files so that they have immediately sound? Do I have to change some premiere settings?
Thank you in advance
Leonardo

Consequently, as you can see, they have both nearly the same information
Both video clips have the following audio codec:
AAC
In the folder where all raw video clips exist there are a few new files with the codec ending: .AVD ("the name of the file".AVD)
But the 2 video clips mentioned above does not have any files like .AVD oder something else like that. But the first one works and the second one doesnt work.

Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro

Problems importing AVI with DV codec to Premiere Pro (720x564 px, 32 kHz stereo, 24.4 bitrate)
I can't import that video. What can I do?

Svanur,
I agree with Harm. The specs. do not match up correctly. Where did those AVI files come from?
I assume that you are working in PAL-land (and not NTSC-land). Is that correct?
What platform are you working on, Mac, or PC?
When you attempt to Import those AVI files, what is the exact error message that you are getting?
Good luck,

How Direct Import .AVI file in to Final Cut Pro 6

How can i Direct import .AVI Files in to Final Cut Pro 6..
Please Tell me Any kind of plugin or application or codec.....
thankyou very much

The AVI file extension merely indicates that the video contained inside could be from any number of codecs; like a QuickTime .mov, .avi is just a wrapper. Saying you have an AVI file is much like saying you have a car ... it doesn't really tell us anything specific. You need to find out what codec it actually is, then you'll know whether or not it can be imported into FCP without conversion.
But you'd be better off converting it to a QuickTime codec that FCP works with natively prior to importing.

Importing AVI

Hi im a Newbe here coming from the world of Audio Edeting.
I have to import AVI Video files (DV-PAL 25) in Final Cut. there are a few problems now. first FC says these files are not optimized for fc, so how to optimize them? those filse been captured in windows via premiere. so what are the most important thinks i hav to know importing avi in final cut.
ah and is there a way to export them with compressor as a avi again. im only able to make mov files.
thanks for any awnser.....

Hi,
AVIs are not best for use with FCP, however, you could ignore that warning and edit your AVIs with no insurmountable issues or convert the AVIs to QTs. but that may add undesired compression steps.
Yes Compressor allows you to compress as AVI:
In Compressor settings tab there's a button with a plus icon on the top right corner. Click it and in the popdown menu choose Quicktime Export Components.
You've just created a new untitled setting. It sits at the bottom of the settings in the untitled folder.
Double click it and/or see it in the inspector window. Give it a name and in the encoder type choose AVI.
Now if you click Options button below you can change a number of settings. Remember, the higher the bit rate the better the video will look but greater wil be the size of the video.
Do some tests to find best settings.

Can't import .AVI files in QuickTime Player

Hi there - Okay,,I'm a real Noob,,but I can't understand why I can't import .AVI files when apparently I should be able to. I have just purchased a Toshiba Camelio S20 and have taken some test movie shots and when I've tried to open them in iMovie or just open them in finder I get the following message
'The document “IMAG0002.AVI” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands.'
The Quicktime player I'm using is Version 10 and I'm working with MacOS X V 10.6.4.
What am I doing wrong ?
Pls help ?
Thanx

Heya - thank you so much - have done what you suggested and now i can import the clips into iMovie - no problem!
But,,,,and,,golly,,don't know if I'm being really really stupid but by converting to DV or MOV I lose all audio from any of the clips that I'm importing...
Can you help some more - sore to be pain in buttocks !! Am completely new to iMovie so am struggling a bit!!!
Thanking you

Importing AVI file problem

I am getting the message " Selected file does not contain video data, is not a supported video file format, or video codec required is not found." I have used and still use Audition 1.5 with no problems. My other video editing programs have no problems. I unsucessfully tried importing AVI into Audtition 2 when it came out and after a few days gave up and stayed with 1.5. I want to upgrade, but I need to be able to import AVI files reliably. I have the most current codecs and they all seem to be working properly.

>So, do other audio editors handle video easily, or is Audition like other editors? Reason I ask: I'm going to be working with video in the very near future. I've got 1.5 and from the sounds of things, it's the Adobe audio product that plays best with video.
By all accounts, some other editors handle it better. But since I stopped editing video years ago, I can't tell you which. There have been threads about it though - it might be worth a search. By and large, I think that it's the more expensive ones that do this, though. If you have AA1.5 it's worth trying this to see if it fits your needs though - it's about the only version that can easily be used for voice-to-picture work - as ryclark attests. It's particularly useful in this case, because you can keep the talent in a quiet place with just a mic and monitor for company, and no PC...
>And if Audition doesn't handle video as well as other 'primarily audio' editors, is that cuz Adobe's trying to nudge people toward their video products?
I think that they're trying to nudge people towards SoundBooth, but this doesn't exactly recieve universal approbation in terms of audio for video, to say the least...

Unable to import .avi files from digicam

I'm unable to import .avi files from my finepix digicam. I get a message that says the files are unreadable. With the previous iPhoto version (v 06) I didn't have any problems. Any thoughts?

I agree with TD regarding Image Capture. I have the same problem with larger video clips and iPhoto 6. You can use Image Capture, choose "Download Some", select just the movie, and upload it to your Desktop. Ignore the blue Progress bar, as it seems to jump from zero to 100% with no real indication of the download progress. Be patient, leave it alone, and eventually the movie should appear on your Desktop. Once there, iPhoto should have no trouble importing it.

How import AVI files to my I Mac for editing in Final Cut?

How import AVI files to my I Mac for editing in Final Cut?

You first convert them to ProRes with Compressor or MPEG STREAMCLIP, then import the ProRes files into FCP. FCP doesn't work with the AVI container...footage must be Quicktime, and must be in a codec FCP works with.

Can not import avi files into pse12 catalog

I am wondering if any one else is having an issue with importing avi (video files from my Nikon D5000) into the PSE 12 catalog.
Running windows 7 SP1 with all updates.
Camera is a Nikon D5000
file type is AVI
Every time I go to import an avi file (either from my SD card or from my HDD) organizer comes up with the message that it has stopped working and windows is looking for a solution.
I do not shoot much video so it is not a large concern but it used to work in previous versions of PSE.
Any and all help with this issue is appreciated.

Ray
In many instances, a utility software will be bundled in with the camera purchase. Installing that utility software might bring along with it codecs that are needed to work with the video on the computer and in the program. If you do not see or have such a utility software, so much for that idea. If you go after this from the MotionJPEG codec angle, the Morgan MotionJPEG codec has been available online as tryout (later purchase).
http://www.morgan-multimedia.com/morgan/php/products.php?sProductId=5&sProductSub=download s
See
M-JPEG-2000 Codec v3 (32 bit and 64 bit) and the associated tab for "Download - trial/demo".
But, could you clarify on
As soon as I move the avi file off of the sd card the import works.
Given you have the .avi file on the SD card, what is the path to the point where the import works?
That is, where are you moving the .avi file to as it leaves the SD card? Surely not to the hard drive since you wrote.
Also if I go to my hard drive where I saved the avi file and try to import it all by itself, it fails.
I wonder if you are saying that you take it through a route which includes the Video Importer.
Thanks for the follow ups.
