Imported Flash files are not playing in published output

Adobe Presenter 7 with the latest updates and PowerPoint 2007
When I insert a Captivate 3 generated Flash file into a Presenter slide, the flash file does not play in the Published output. The slide's image is displayed for 5 seconds and then stops.
After further review, I found that my imported Flash files are not included in the output. Any ideas?

Hi Terry,
It's been awhile since I've messed around w/ Captivate 3, but I have a quick question: does your Captivate content include a skin.swf file?  If so, then you may have to look at a couple of different solutions to fix the playback problem that you're seeing with Presenter.
One fix includes eliminating the skin by turning the borders option off which will eliminate the "_skin.swf" file. That'll be one less file to deal with, but you need to do that BEFORE publishing in Captivate.  From there, you should end up with one swf file from your Captivate content; and then at that point you can include that swf in your Presenter content.
And while we're at it....are you using any Full Motion Recordings at all?  I've seen instances where, as you reported, Captivate content will run for awhile, but then the screen "goes blank"...so I'm just curious to know if your Captivate content in actuality has many more files than the "base" swf---which is probably the swf you included in PowerPoint.
Having said that, can you share more information about what your Captivate project looks like (in terms of the number of swf files you're working with, etc), and let's see if we can resolve this for you.

  • Flash files are not smooth

    Hi,
    I am running DMP 4400G (5.2.3) with DMM server 5.2.3.
    Every thing working fine except the flash files. All the flash files are not smooth. They are playing like fram by fram. I am using flash 10.

    We've run every type of flash on the 4400. We've tried flash 7, flash 10, flash lite, action script 2 and action script 3. For the most part, flash will *not run smoothly* if:
    1. You have very large files, like imported bit map images.
    2. Large sweeping motions or tween animation effects.
    3. Multiple flash objects on a single page.
    4. Video embedded in flash will never play evern remotely reasonably well.
    The best thing to do is:
    1. Keep flash objects small.
    2. Animations should have as few frames as possible, no tween effects, no big sweeping motions, in other words, make transitions small and very quick.
    3. Keep flash objects self contained, that is, don't try to pull in too much content from external sources.
    Like I said, we've tried so many things, but when it comes to flash, the 4400 is rather restrictive.
    Good luck!

  • FLV File does not play when published to my web server

    Hi. I have created a short video in VC3 and selected the FLV option to create a web page. When I uploaded the entire file content to my web server (windows 2003 server hosted at Network Solutions) the FLV file will not play. Now... if I do the same with a WMV tile, the video plays.
    You can view the file at
    http://www.airforcehomeseller.com/videos/va_education/VATutorials/index.htm
    We have another video published in WMV format, although the video vs audio sync is out of wack at the moment, at
    http://www.airforcehomeseller.com/videos/Energy%20Pricing%20101/index.htm
    What am I doing wrong?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi again
    You should probably double-check to ensure the standard.js file was also copied in when the HTML page was imported. It should be there but it never hurts to double check.
    You might also perform a double-check to ensure things ended up in the correct folder (if you are organizing your project into folders). It could be that you moved the HTML page into a different folder and orphaned the JavaScript file.

  • Swf flash files are not displaying neatly within table cells.

    The latest version of Firefox (3.6.12) The website I have design now shows thick lines underneath the flash files. URL Below. The table of pictures should be neat, instead the cells in which the flash files are contained are increasing in height and breaking apart the table . This does not happen in previous version of Firefox, Internet Explorer & Google Chrome.
    Is there anything i should be doing different when inserting flash files into web pages that have complex tables? Or is this a problem with Firefox?

    Add a rule object { display: block } to the stylesheet. An object is an inline element by default.

  • .Mov files are not playing on my Mac BookPro

    As of this week, I am unable to play my .mov files through Quick Time on my Mac Book Pro.  A small windo appears and states that sometype of conversion is occurring and eventually some of my movie files will play. 
    I am at work creating a .mov file through quick time and the file will not play.

    That's a well documented limitation of JavaFX. Mov files are simply not supported.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javafx/overview/faq-1446554.html#7
    You should vote for the corresponding JIRA entries.

  • Imported .mov file does not play in Flash export

    I have imported a .mov file as a background for a flash banner I want to put on my website. The exported flash file plays all of the text animations, but the .mov background does not work -- it's just frozen on the first frame. I have read similar problems with QT exports, but I haven't found any similar flash problems. Thanks for any help.

    I think it might be necessary to look at the Inspector in QuickTime. Open the .mov file in QuickTime and go to Window > Show Movie Inspector:
    In the info window that comes up, under the Format: field you want to look at the second row where it tells you the audio track format:
    In this example, this particular clip is in a really odd format. It is MPEG Layer 2 (no Layer 3 which is MP3 format) at 32Khz, Mono. Preferably for anything in iMovie or iDVD you would prefer the Inspector to look like this:
    Linear PCM, 16bit (etc) 2 channels, 48kHz. This can be accomplished by downloading and installing MPEG Streamclip. Open the program and drag the .mov clip into the applicationw window (with five dots in it). Then under the File Menu choose Export to QuickTime:
    Then go to the Compression pull-down menu and choose Apple Intermediat Codec (AIC):
    Then under the Audio section, leave the audio pulldown to uncompressed but do set the sample rate to 48kHz instead of Auto:

  • Swf files are not playing after being published

    i am trying to run the 'connector' example that comes bundled with smartfoxserver2x downloads..there it connects to the server and loads the correct configuration file. when i run it in adobe flash professional 5,it runs correctly and connects to the server but after being published as SWF movie,it doesnt work.it loads the configuration file but cant connect and gives error connection failure..ERROR 2048
    this is the example i am talking about. http://docs2x.smartfoxserver.com/ExamplesFlash/connector

    that's probably a local security restriction you have.  reset it to allow your swf to communicate across your local sandbox to the internet:  http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
    or test online.
    in the future, please copy and paste complete error messages.

  • .wav files are not playing in firefox 3.6.13

    re: "Microsoft proprietary code used by IE and will not work in Firefox."<br />
    Why doesn't Microsoft get busy and write some plugins for other browsers? They wrote Silverlight for Firefox. Are they afraid other browsers will become more popular then IE? Or maybe that's already happened. I have a Mac Book Pro w/OSX snow leopard. It's a superior machine and OS. I tried a HP laptop w/Win 7 first. I had to return it before regurgitating.<br />
    Addendum: Reasons for my disgust w/IE:
    # If you run IEv8x w/all the "security updates" the processor is bogged down until the speed is unbearably slow. I doubt if there's one lousy compute cycle left for another task.
    # Reasons for the above: all those security updates etc. are dialing home with tattle tale crap, along with all the adware, spyware, malware, and viruses you can think of that are floating around in cyberspace just waiting to infect your PC w/Windows OS.
    # I have Symantec/Norton Internet Security on my Mac Book Pro. None of the above stuff has infected my Mac since I bought it 2 months ago. A welcome relief.

  • Flash Video not playing in Published file

    I published the files. I then click the "view ouput" button.
    I am able to see the video playing locally. However, when I copy
    all the contents in the publish folder (.htm, .swf, .flv, etc.) to
    my web server, the flash video does not play. The rest of the .swf
    animation plays, just no video.
    I do see a security message
    I did choose progressive download and selected Flash version
    as Flash Player 8.

  • My lightroom 4 will not import my files from my compact flash card . It has been working for years with out fail but now there is no import previews and it says the files are not recognized by raw format support in LR

    I have lightroom 4 I've had it for years and it has imported my raw files from my CF card without issue . Now when I plug in my CF card to import new files it says import operations not performed and there are no image previews . When I continue by hitting "import" I get a pop up window that states "the files are not recognized by raw format support in Light Room"

    Don't feel too bad.  If the D4S has as many menus and custom functions as my Canon 5D Mark iii its easy to get messed up.
    If you downloaded from the link I gave you it will be Lr 5.4.   The link was just to show you when the D4S was supported.  The newest version is 5.7.1 and can be downloaded here.  Don't know your OS so you will have to pick Windows or Mac.   Product updates
    On my Mac I just run the downloaded installer program (its a full version and not an small update) and it installs the new version and erases the old version.  If you are on Windows you will have to get help from a windows person. 

  • Flash SWF with Video file will not play in web page

    Hello Flash group,
    I have created a flash video file from a *.wmv file.
    myvideo.flv.
    I have used flash to build an swf file that plays the video
    (with a default skin).
    I have then imported the media file into an html page using
    Dreamweaver. I did not import the flv file, but the swf file with
    the "video" in it.
    The page plays find on my development server (where
    Flash,Dreamweaver, etc is installed).
    When I moved the html page, the flv file, the swf file and
    the skin to my production webserver (linux and apache)
    the flash files do not show up on the web page. The dev
    server is a windows XP running apache 2.2)
    Any ideas on what I need to do???
    thanks,
    eholz1

    It may cause by any of the reason below:
    - You have uploaded the flv file to the wrong directory
    - Your flv file path/name is incorrect. check all case
    sensitive etc.
    - Your web server doesn't support FLV MIME type.

  • Just purchased Nikon D610. tried to import 3 images and got this message: The files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom. How do I fix this frustrating problem. Have been using Lightroom for years also Nikon products without any prior

    How do I import images. Have a message that says: The files are not recognized by the raw format suppot in Lightroom. Am using a Mac version 10.9.4. the import is from a new Nikon D610. Am using LR 4.4 Please help Adobe is useless as a support.

    Each camera must be supported explicity and your LR version is years older than your camera.
    According to Adobe's Camera-support page, you need at least LR 5.3 to work with your D610 NEFs in LR:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    If you don't want to upgrade to LR 5, or can't due to your OS being too old, then it might work to use the latest DNG Converter and create DNGs from your NEFs, which should open in LR 4.x.  You can find the DNG Converter here:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates

  • FLV embedded in a SWF file, does not play in HTML file.

    Hi,
    I embedded a FLV file into flash movie clip, which on publish plays well on SWF file, but when the same is embedded in HTML, it does not play.
    What is it i'm missing ..
    Kindly help.
    Regards
    Shashi

    First, clarify this... are you embedding the .flv into the time line, as in:
    The .FLV file is imported on the  timeline of a movie clip.
    I embedded the .flv file,
    If you are in fact embedding the video, then there is no external video file... it's embedded into the timeline.
    If you are using the FLVPlayback component and an external vid file to display the video and the .swf when testing plays the video just fine but not on the HTML Web page:
    SWF plays external video file, as soon as I embed SWF in HTML, it no longer playes the external video file.
    then it's most likely a pathing problem.
    If you are placing the .swf on a Web page and the .swf and/or the .flv file are not both in the same folder as the Web page.... then the .swf should NOT work when you test it directly! That's because it should be pathed to play from the Web page and not the location of the .swf.
    For your review:
    Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
    You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do NOT have to be in the root, they do NOT all have to be in the same folder. But if you have a problem and if sticking them all in the root folder works, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
    Just remember that paths used in the .swf become relative to the Web page on which the .swf is placed, NOT it’s physical location.  So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root folder, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, images, video, etc), the path used inside the .swf to load the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and then back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
    In fact if you are placing the .swf on a web page in a different folder than the .swf is stored in, and that .swf calls external assets, then direct clicking and opening of the .swf in it’s folder should NOT work! That’s because the paths to the external assets should be relative to the Web page and not the physical location of the .swf.
    So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the Flash related files in what ever folders you want.
