Import QTVR into Flash

Hi all,
Wasn't sure which thread to put this in, apologies if its in
the wrong one. Anyway, I was just wondering if it possible to
import QTVR movies into Flash like you can with regular Quicktime
movies, what QTVR has is controls that allow the user to 360 a
movie, just wondering if it is possible to maintain the 360
controls for the movie?
Thanks
Lee

There is no capability to import or play a virtual reality
movie. That is,
if you import the movie, it will become a linear movie
consisting of the
frames used in the VR. For instance, if your VR is made up of
20 vertical
views and 20 horizontal views, it will become a series of 400
(20 X 20)
frames played in rapid succession. One would have to build a
custom player
in actionScript to make it appear as VR.

Importing mp4 into Flash 8, converting to FLV

I just finished taking a Flash Video class where I understood
I could import an MP4 and convert in to an FLV using encoding tools
that come with Flash Professional 8. However, I opened a new FLA
just now and tried to import an MP4 (File -> Import Video),
Flash would not recognize the sample MP4 I have sitting on my
desktop.
I downloaded a demo copy of On2 FlixPro and it did recognize
the MP4, is converting it to an FLV as I write this.
Did I misunderstand about importing MP4s into Flash 8
Professional? Is it in fact not possible. Or might there have been
something I didn't do or didn't do correctly before importing? If
so, what might it have been?
Thanks in advance.

The MP4 file extension does not appear in the filetype
filter of the
Import dialog, but if you select "All Files (*.*)," that
should work. I've
imported MP4s (they're MPGs, after all), but the extension
doesn't appear
under the "All Video Formats" choice. (I'm hoping this is
what you mean by
"would not recognize," anyway.)

Importing movie into Flash

Does anyone have any knowledge of importing movies into
flash?
I have a movie streaming in my flash file but when some
people open the exe they only see black when the movie should be
showing. And some others can see the movie. Any thoughts?

you can import them as an image sequence, then create a movie
clip out of it. File-->import-->import to stage.. Then select
all the images, and it something should pop up asking if you are
trying to create an image sequence, select yes.

Importing images into Flash

I am importing images into Flash only to discover that the images (1280 x 720) are not centered on the stage. Most of the time the images are off centre by a few pixel widths or in some cases by an inch or more. I can't get them to centre unless I clear the stage and import a few times.
Is there a way to import and have the images framed perfectly within the stage.
I'm currently using Flash CS5.5
Thank you.

You can also click the two blue boxes icon under the Timeline and then drag select the whole timeline and that will let you select all your frames at once. then just position them all where you want them at the same time. I attached a screen cap of the area I'm talking about. It's right after the two white boxes.

Importing video into Flash MX2004

Hi
I've not worked with video before, but now have a requirement
to use a video clip in a Flash movie. I have found a royalty free
movie clip which is perfect, but would need to work over the top of
this file to add some bits to the movie.
My question is this, if I purchase the movie and import it
into Flash, does it come in frame-for-frame on the timeline so that
I can add layers and work over the top of it? I know that video
tends to create large files - once it's in Flash and published as a
swf file, presumably it should be more manageable?
Many thanks for any help.

It won't be frame by frame, it will be its own format
stretching across timeline
to covert the length of its frames.

Couldnt Import .MP3 into Flash CC

I am exporting a .MP3 from Adobe Audition CC
Then Importing it into Flash CC
I receive the error message Couldnt Import .MP3
This procedure has worked in the past but now does not work. If you know what may be the issue please let me know
Thanks

There was an older issue with Flash CS6 where any MP3 with a bitrate over 192kbit could not be imported unless both QuickTime and iTunes were installed to the latest version (on Windows). Do you also have iTunes installed and updated?
I don't think anyone got to the bottom of why iTunes was needed but many people couldn't import MP3 with the same error until they did. You might want to try that.
The only MP3 workaround was to import directly to library instead of stage and play it in a timeline layer, but some could only hear it during published playback (no preview).
Of course an alternate workaround is to simply use a different format. There's still something going on with MP3, which is a bit surprising considering how common it is. I would recommend trying WAV or AIFF as a workaround for now if iTunes/QuickTime updating doesn't fix it.

Need to import .swf into Flash 8 project

I'm working on a project that requires me to use an already
made .swf file in it. I'm creating the whole project (which is a
presentation) strictly in Flash 8. This project requires a user to
be able to navigate through various menus and categories to see
what's in them. Most of the categories have a slide-show of images
that are accompanied by a voice over sound track that explains to
them what they're watching; however, for other categories I already
have a previously created .swf file that I need to import into
Flash 8. The issue that I've noticed when I just import the .swf
file into Flash is that the file plays at about 100x the original
speed. I think that it is because Flash looks at this file as one
frame and tried to play everything all at once. I also looked into
the possibility of trying to the loadMovie() function, but that is
not that convenient for me because this requires me to decompile
the .swf file into .fla and edit it so that a user has a way of
coming back to the main menu of the presentation from that movie,
unless there is a function parameter of loadMovie() similar to
HTML's "_blank" where a new window opens so that the user can close
this window without having to worry about restarting the
presentation. I hope that what I'm doing is clear, and I'm very
much open to any suggestions about what I should do about it or any
other ways of doing what I'm trying to achieve, which is to be able
to play already-made .swf files in my Flash project. To give more
details on these .swf files, they were originally created in Adobe
Captivate and exported into .swf. They play perfectly when you play
them, but it's just that there is an issue when I try to play them
from my Flash project. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Braulio
a good tutorial site can be found at
http://www.kirupa.com
and also, look in your Flash Docs, for loadClip() and
loavMovie() methods. They should get you started on some ideas to
import external content.

Trouble importing FLV into flash - keep gettingan error

Hello all, I'm hopping that someone else has had this problem
before. I'm a long time user of Flash but have just downloaded the
the newest version (CS3) to try it out. I was really looking
forward to the video capabilities. ANYWAY, I'm on a new IMac,
running OSX version 10.4.11. I downloaded and installed the newest
version of flash. I created an FLV with some video that I had and
I'm attempting to import it into a flash file. I get through all of
the steps and it appears to be importing but then I get this error.
"Error opening file; Library/Application Support/Adobe
FlashCS3/en/Configuration//JavaScript/DeployVideo.jsfl" I went to
this location on my computer and the "Adobe FlashCS3" folder isn't
even there. It's like it wasn't even installed. I've re-installed
the software twice. Anyone know what the deal is. Thanks in
advance.

how do you convert it to a prores file in compressor. I cant figure out that program at all.
If you have a movie file that you wish to compress, launch Compressor.
Once Compressor is open, go to the upper left-hand corner of the project window and select Add File.
It will open up a window in which you can browse all available storage spaces.
Select a file. Once you have done so, then assign a conversion setting from available ones and a destination for the encoded files
Hit submit.
There are dozens of free tutorials on the internet.

Cannot import .mpg into Flash 8 Pro

I've been trying to import a video into Flash but only the
audio works. I've searched the web and tried updating the ActiveX
and QuickTime as suggested on the Adobe site but no luck.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I'm using Flash 8 Pro but not sure about the codec as I'm
very new at video capture and edit. I did manage to import another
.mpg file from a different source just as a test to see if it was
just my file giving me grief. Apparently it is.
The original capture is with the Canon HG10 which is high
def. Here are some of the details I know.
Format:NTSCHDMV (AVCHD)
Video type H.264 , Switched to Frame Based during edit for
online use.
24 bit, 1440x1080, 16:9
I am editing the clips on ULead VideoStudio Plus converting
the file from their .vsp project format to high def .mpg2
(SVCD/DVD)
I'm not sure this is the information you need but hope that
it helps.

Problem with importing JPEG into Flash

Hello,
Im using Adobe Flash CS3 PRO. I don't know what's wrong..when I try to import photos into the stage the photos get resized.
My photographs are 550px by 413px. I set my stage to the same size. Then I go to import to stage. I click import as a sequence. All the photos are appear smaller on the stage. They are only about 200px
Why is it happening?????
I am basicaly trying to import a sequence of photographs for my stop motion animation. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks for helping!
Lucas

I don't know the why of it. I don't have this problem most of the time, but I have heard it come up before--I don't remember the solution though. It may have involved importing the image into something that is already scaled smaller.
Anyways, here's a couple of things to check while waiting for someone who might know more to come along.
First, select one of the images and select Modify -> Transform -> Remove Transform. If the Remove Transform option is grayed out, then nevermind.
If that didn't do anything, try dragging one of the images out to the stage from the library and see if it is the proper size.
If you have a ton of images, it's likely that neither of the two things above is an attractive solution anyways.

Importing PDF into flash CS3 - Importer du PDF dans CS3

Hello.
Originally, i posted my question in french. So i will try to
convert in english, but my english is poor.
You can see the original in french, in back of this topic, in
bolded text
So, my problem : i can import some PDF files with Flash MX
2004, but i cannot do the same with Flash CS3.
When i import (import in the scene - Command+R) the PDF file
in Flash MX 2004, i got the vectorial logo correctly and the text
as a text.
But when i import (import in the scene - Command+R) the same
PDF file into Flash CS3, there is a problem. At start, i cannot
click the PDF file, i have to choose "all the files" to can click
it. Then i click it and there is a pop window appearing, talking
about "importing video". But my PDF is not Video… And at the
end, the result is a poor jpg image of my PDF, not the vectorials
that i would like.
So why the old Flash MX can do it easily, and the recent CS3
can not ?
What i have to do ?
Bonjour,
Jusqu'à peu, j'utilisais Flash MX 2004 et quand je
faisais une importation dans la scène, je pouvais importer des
fichiers PDF, et j'obtenais en quelques dixiemes de secondes,
l'importation du contenu (en général quelques logos en
vectoriel et du texte). Léger, simple, rapide, efficace !
Et puis j'ai installé la version CS3 Professionnal, et
là c'est la débacle.
Quand je fais importation dans la scène, et
sélectionne une PDF (déjà il m'a fallu aller sur
"tous les fichiers" pour le dégriser) il me sort une usine
à gaz dont voici quelques détails.
- Il commence par m'ouvrir une fenêtre "importer de la
vidéo" me demandant de sélectionner si ladite vidéo
est sur mon DD ou déjà "déployée" sur le web.
(Mon fichier PDF n'a rien de vidéo, c'est une image fixe, nom
de xxx).
-Si je continue, il me demande "comment je veux la
déployer ?". 5je ne veux rien déployer, je veux juste
importer 2 ou 3 vecteurs et du texte !)
- je lui dis de "l'incorporer dans le swf". Il me demande
comment je veux incorporer la vidéo. (C'EST PAS DE LA
VIDÉO, t'es sourd sale bête !!!)
- je lui explique que le "type de symbole" est graphique
(j'ai le même résultat si je mets clip) et il me demande
le codage.
- si je décoche "coder la vidéo" il refuse de
continuer, et si je le coche, il m'importe une espèce de jpeg
atroce, pixelisé à mort et inexploitable (tout du moins
pour l'usage que je compte faire).
Donc ma question est "est-ce que j'ai raté un
épisode ?" (oui, plusieurs, certes, mais de là à
changer complètement l'histoire, faut pas abuser) et la
suivante c'est surtout "comment faire pour importer convenablement
mes fichiers PDF qui ne comporte que quelques logos en vectoriel et
du texte, et le tout fixe fixe fixe, rien à voir avec de la
vidéo ?"
En attendant, je ré-installe Flash MX pour avancer un
peu, mais je ne peux pas croire qu'une fonction primordiale soit
supprimée, comme ça, sans remplacement.
Os court !

Is that really the end, doc ?

Importing video into Flash --- can I get a Transparent background?

I am using Flash CS3. I am importing a Quicktime video into
Flash through File > Import > Import Video.
Here's the problem, though. I need this video to be
transparent. It appears that all videos imported into this method
have a black background. It makes sense, because usually the video
fills out the entire black area. However, with a video that needs
to be transparent, the black background shows through.
This movie will basically lay over a webpage, so the content,
graphics of the site would be visible behind the video.
What I'm trying to accomplish is very similar to what you see
at the bottom of this page:
http://rovion.com/Showcase/1800Flowers_demo.htm
We've worked out the technology, however using the File >
Import > Import video method adds a black background to the
Flash file, rendering it solid, not transparent.
Is there a way to remove this so the transparency is active?
Thanks for any advice.
Mark

Mark,
If the video was created with an alpha channel
(transparency) then you have to choose the option to import the
alpha channel in the video import wizard. If there is not an alpha
channel, then you will get the black box. It might be possible to
make the video a movie clip, and play around with the blend of it,
but I don't think you'll have much luck. So, your first step is to
figure out if the video was created and an alpha channel, then make
sure you have the option selected when importing.

Importing PSD into Flash CS5

I have a PSD file with layers that I am trying to import into Flash. The problem that I am having is that the text effects that I have applied in Photoshop are not transferring into Flash. All I get is the Font, Font size, and color. But I used Drop Shadow on some of the and some other effects as well. None of these are transferring over to Flash. Do I have to save them in a certain way i n Photoshop in order to effect the transfer. I want to be clear. I am not trying to import text effects as separate layers or anything complicated. I just want the text to look like it does in photoshop. Can anyone give me a suggestion?
Thanks!
Nena

It doesn't matter which one you use to create graphics and assets. Photoshop is regarded as the standard from creating web graphics, ther e is just so much more you can do. I prefer Fireworls when creating slices, and Pnotoshop for optimizing images for export. Keep in mind that a Fireworks PNG is basically the same as a PSD file, with layers, etc. But either one can export as a web png, transparent background. When you import one of these into flash, just choose to import as a single bitmap.

Importing PNG into Flash = Color loss

Is anyone out there having this problem: When importing png
files into flash there is a subtle but significant color loss.
Particularly in images that contain alot of Black. It's as if Flash
is using a different color space to Photoshop even though color
management is off in the original photoshop document. When the
PNG's are imported into flash they are always washed out and much
lighter than the original. This is more obvious when importing
images which contain alot of Black. I've been experiencing this
problem for years now and it is sooooo frustrating infact I'm
trying despeatly hard to keep this message calm. Is anyone out
there having the same issue? Im using Mac OSX 10.4 Photoshop CS and
Flash 8?

PNG's are badly designed and often suffer from color
problems. You may need
to use a different color space in photoshop that is
compatible with Flash.
It's not a Flash problem .. and not really even a Photoshop
problem. . its a
problem in PNG's themselves.
See here for an interesting article about why PNG files are
stuffed...

Importing Images into Flash CS4 from Photoshop 7

Hello,
I've created an image in flash, basically the image is a ring which has then been divided into 3 equal segments, each segment exists on its own seperate layer with and has a transparent background. I want to make ach of these segments into a button on flash, so I've imported them across and converted them into buttons, however the problem I have is that when it gets imported into flash, it creates a box around each segment which is what flash sees as the full button, this means when you roll over a blank piece of the segment flash recognises it as rolling over the button. Is this just an inherent problem from importing from photoshop into flash or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Sean

Check the settings:
Edit/Preferences.../PSD File importer...
And then load the *.psd file without the background.
And certainly there is no change in flash...
