Loading video in Dreamweaver CS3

I'm using Dw CS3 and I'm trying to load a flash video encoded
with Flash CS3. When I put the video on the page it doesn't display
when I preview in a browser. Also if I try to put the files on the
server it fails when it gets to the video. Also I'm going from Mp4
to Flv. I really need to get this to work so any and all help will
be greatly appreciated.

Be smart:

... which sez the .swf is here:

That's where the Flash file is, to be sure... but it doesn't
work for me...
I wonder if it's working for you because your computer has
cached it
locally? Perhaps someone else can indicate if they can see it
via that
direct link.

Insert Flash Video using Dreamweaver CS3

Hello,
If I were to import an FLV into Flash CS3, I would have the
ability to add text or images to the movie as needed. However, I am
testing Dreamweaver's ability to insert a Flash video directly onto
a web page, without the use of Flash CS3. I'm using Progressive
Download with the "Halo Skin 3" component. My question is: can the
Flash Video component inserted by Dreamweaver CS3 be edited somehow
using Flash CS3? I would be attempting to add text to the first
frame of the movie.
Thanks.

Broken Flash Video link - Dreamweaver CS3

I'm using a Mac G-5, PPC, Dreamweaver CS3
I cannot get FLV videos to show up on webpages. I've never had this prob before. (I currently have pages online which play their vids fine and were produced the same way I'm working it now.) I insert the video onto the page as usual, make the setting for "progressive download", "detect size", etc in the dialog box and hit OK. The video shows on my page in Dreamwvr as a Flash Vid but after saving and testing in a browser nothing shows up in 3 different browsers. I tested the page in Firefox, Netscape and Flock and nothing shows. In Opera the video player shows but will not play. In Safari it plays fine! In Dreamweaver, in the "assets" window, when I select any of the 4 FLV's there, I get the broken link icon (jigsaw puzzle piece) showing in the window yet the vids reside in the same place they've always resided.
The "AC_RunActiveContent.js" file is contained in the "Scripts" folder inside the "Files" window.
I have a page containing videos which is currently published and they play fine in all tested browsers......however in Dreamwvr's "assets" window I am getting the same symbol that looks like the broken link (puzzle piece) there as well and NO changes have been made to those files and assets.
Here's the link to that online page:
https://mnbbank.com/financial_video.html
I'd like to include a screenshot but I can't because the CSS, Tag & Files/Assets windows close when the screen capture software opens.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Problem Using Flash FLV Video Via Dreamweaver CS3

I have been unable to get my FLV video to play on my website.
I seem to have two problems:
1) I want the FLV file to be hosted in a different domain to
the website itself (for bandwidth reasons) and it doesn't want to
do that!
2) I would prefer to use Flash skins rather than Dreamweaver
skins as I want to offer a full-screen option but I cannot get them
to work!
If I host the FLV file on the website domain, the video plays
ok. If I change the file location in the Properties of the movie to
become the FLV located on the other domain (using full path
http://<etc>flv) then nothing
displays on that part of the page. Firebug tells me it has loaded
the AC_RunActiveContent.js and FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf but it
makes no mention of the skin file or the flv file itself ... it is
as if it just simply has not bothered with it! I suspect I am
missing something obvious but cannot find it. All help would be
appreciated. By the way, I have loaded up a crossdomain.xml file to
the root of the domain that hosts the flv file but that didn't seem
to make any difference!
The second challenge is that ideally I would like to use a
Flash skin so that I can have a full-screen option and so that I
can have the menu bar under the video itself. However, I can't even
get that option to work when I host the whole lot on the normal
webserver! I am suspecting that it might be something that might
suddenly start working when I fix problem 1. However, if anybody
has any links to a page that provides simple instructions about how
to do this task I would greatly appreciate it!
Many thanks for your help!

1) Why not post your video to YouTube or Google Video and
then embed the
code they provide into your website. This way their servers
carry the
bandwidth for you and the scripted embed code will work on
your site.
2) If Video sharing isn't an option, and you need more
bandwidth, you can
get domain hosting for as little as $4.95 - 6.95/month at
Bluehost,
Lunarpages or Web Hosting Pad.

Controller skin for SWF video in dreamweaver CS3?

Hi there,
I have inserted a SWF video into my website, however right
now it's playing automatically and i have no way of stopping and
pausing my video... how can I add a skin controller to my SWF file?
I know I can do it with FLVs, but I dunno how to do it in SWFs....
THanks!

I have managed to fathom it out.

Does anyone know how to load a skin . swf file with video to dreamweaver

I have input the video into flash cs3 and then used the
properties section for adding the video in the source section. I
then put the skin with the first drop down. I saved and just put it
in dreamweaver however does not work.. I was told the skin may not
have be sent automatically. How do we do this. Get the skin . swf
file to go with the video or get them both into dreamweaver. I does
not show up on my site.

I haven't seen too many questions like this on this forum. Did you also try the photoshop forums?

Loading Flash Video in Dreamweaver

Hi:
I'm moderately experienced with Dreamweaver and have just
begun using flash to create videos. I created a flash video and a
swf. file in flash and it all worked fine. I then put the entire
folder (flash project, flv video and swf file) on my web site. When
I insert the swf. it won't play in dreamweaver or in preview in
browser. I've had a little tutoring in this and my tutor thought
that dreamweaver can't locate the swf file even thought the content
path seems to be fine.
I've tried a few different ways and it just doesn't work. Can
anyone suggest any things I can look at to solve this. I know that
this should all work so I assume I have a setting or preference set
incorrectly.
Any ideas.
Thanks,
Rex

The code on that page looks as though it is generated by
Dreamweaver CS3
(or possibly an earlier version of Dreamweaver). Dreamweaver
CS4 uses
different code, which can be inserted in a template editable
region
without difficulty.
To get around the problem in your case, deselect the option
to prompt
users to download the Flash Player if necessary. That's what
is
preventing you from using an FLV in a template page.

Dreamweaver CS3 will not load up

I went to startup my Dreamweaver CS3 like always and it
would not load. I have been using it fine for months with no issues
and today it just died. I get an error of Program is unable to open
please reinstall or repair files. But nothing else is give for an
error. I removed the program and rebooted and reinstalled. It never
asked me for the serial number I though it is most likley still in
the registry somewhere. I still get same error. Is there a 100% way
to remove all items of DCS3 from my PC and reinstall 100% fresh?
Thanks

If you go to the Adobe Support Knowledgebase, you can find
this sort of
answer for yourself. Type "licensing has stopped working"
into the
"Search for" field, select "Dreamweaver" from the "Product"
menu, and
click search. The following page comes up as the first
result:

Dreamweaver CS3 Not Loading Anymore

Hi!
For some reason today I opened up Dreamweaver CS3 and it
won't load fully. It is getting stuck at "Initializing Extension
Data" and it just hangs basically.
I saw an update but it seems to be for the Middle East and
North African versions only.
Anyone else having this annoying problem? If so, how do we
fix it?
Specs for my system
Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 (Creative Suite)
Windows XP Home

I haven't really installed anything new the past few days, so
am not aware of a confict.
Thanks,

Open up the Extension Manager and remove all extensions.
Install them back one by one.

Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Video Issue

I have Dreamweaver CS3 running in OS X 10.4.11 all updated.
all of a sudden when I go to insert a Flash Video into a page I get the wheel of death and DW is frozen. I formatted the video in Flashconverter and it plays fine in mpeg streamclip.
The Insert dialog opens and I can chose the flash video and then hit detect size and the controls I want. and then I hit ok and the wheel comes up and never goes away.
If I create a new sit it will let me add the video.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks

What OS? Does the problem happen with all files and all
sites, just some,
or just one?

Dreamweaver CS3 trial down load

Hi all
I tried downloading Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 last night and the
issue is getting it to actaully work?
Any ideas - look forward to hearing from anyone who knows the
problem.

Hi John,
I am using windows and the trial download will just not work
period.
I know it downloaded and I downloaded it to the desktop but
it will simply not run itself.
It would be great if I could resolve the issue as I have to
design a 3 page website by the 01/04/2008 for college.
I looked at it again the other day and it is definately
becoming a nightmare.

SWF problem in Dreamweaver CS3 and strange Script file

Hi folks, I am using Dreamweaver CS3 and tried to upload a
SWF file today. The SWF includes three buttons, one for video,
another for audio and one for text. Before loading up to DW all
three parts played fine. But when I uploaded to DW and my site, the
video fails to play. A Script file, and another file downloaded I
am not sure what I am supposed to do with this script file. The
script file is called The audio and text part works fine, but the
video will not play. I am not sure why this is, but when I uploaded
the file to Dreamweaver there was a Script file called
AC_RunActiveContent.js that automatically downloaded along with a
file called .htaccess
The other file is called called .htaccess
I uploaded both files to my server, but that did not help the
video play. I tried pasting the AC_RunActiveContent.js code into my
page and uploading, but that did not help the video play either; I
just got code at the bottom of my page.
I have viewed the page in Mozilla, IE7 and Flock, but still I
cannot play the video.
Does anyone have any idea how to make the video play in
Dreamweaver; what I am supposed to do with these two code files?
For those interested in the AC_RunActiveContent.js code, I
will post below. Please try to explain simply because I am not so
tech savvy.
I thank you all.

Sounds as though you're trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on
Mac OS X
10.3 or earlier. CS3 requires OS X 10.4 as a minimum. It
won't install
on earlier versions.
