Problem with Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder

I have got the trial version of Macromedia Flash 8
(professional). I have no problem running the Macromedia Flash but
when I tried to run the Macromedia Flash 8 Vedio Encoder for the
First time, as it was trying to install the Encoder it gives me an
error as it cannot locate an installation file.
This is the message I am getting in the pop-up message as the
installation stops:
The feature that you are trying to use is on the network
resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again or enter an
alternate to a folder containing the installation package
‘Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder.msi’ in the box
below.
User source:
C:\DOCUME~1\username\LOCALS~1\Temp\{2BD5C305-1B27-4D41-B690-7A61172D2FEB}\
Can someone tell what the problem is and how I can get it
fixed? Thank you very much for your time.

common problem, happens with perfectly set up application,
regardless DEMO or
off the CD.
I and up getting ZIP of the encoder from a friend because
multiple unistall, reinstall
did not help.
Happen second time on my laptop, I got fed up and try to fix
it, can't reproduce the steps
but basically I remove QT player and Flash 8. Reinstall QT
first, than Follow by flash 8.
Tried that 4 or 5 times and eventually it start to work.
You can always use it from the program, it works within flash
File - import - import video
than pick the video and go to Progress Download From the
server.
Flash will generated the FLV automatically.

While attempting to uninstall Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder via the Control Panel, I get an error that the code cannot locate the Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder.msi file.

Flash 8 Video Encoder- Necessary Codec or File Corrupt

I have a bunch of quicktime files I'm looking to convert but
keeping getting this error from the Flash 8 encoder when I try to
encode or click 'settings':
You won't be able to encode this file. Your computer doesn't
have the necessary codec or the file is corrupt.
I am having success with other quicktime vids, so what gives?
Thanks

That kind of question is very hard to answer. There is so
many factors to consider,
it will be one, never ending guessing game.
Try multiple videos, divx, mov , wmv etc... See if you can
mange to get any of these
to work. If none than perhaps the FLV player is not set up
properly or the encoding
setting isn't correct. If some of these work, than perhaps is
the video in question
that is Flash incompatible and you might need to save it in
another format using video
editing tools. Also make sure that the browser players are
compatible with the file version
you publishing to.
Than, after having all these answers, we can't start to try
to figure
out what and where it goes wrong.

Flash 8 Video Encoder, audio/video discrepancy from mpeg

Two questions...
First, more urgently, I've been given an origianl
720xsomething mpeg format video, and I'm trying to bring it over to
flash... I use the flash 8 video encoder, which does a phenomenal
job of keeping video quality while vastly reducing file size, but
in this case, (unlike some others in the past) I'm getting a
bizarre discrepancy between the speed of audio vs. speed of
video... I can't find a way to force the mpeg (or flash encoder
software) to TELL me what the frame rate of the original mpeg is,
and even when i attempt to force it to 24 or 25 during conversion
to flv, it doesn't seem to bother matching it up to the audio...
when i take the result and export it from flash, i'll try, at 24
the video is going too fast for audio, but at 23 its going too
slow...
and this SEEMs related to 2nd question.. I took about 15
solid minutes of video of a particularly nice sunset in
progression, with the hopes of compressing it down to about 30-60
seconds for effect... but it seemed like, no matter what frame rate
I tried to compress it to with the encoder, it just drew each frame
out to a set length, and even if i tried to export the flash really
fast, it remained at the epicly slow frame rate...
is there a relation? what am I doing wrong?
is there a way to detect the ACTUAL frame rate of the
original mpeg... is there a way to force the audio and video to
remained sync'd up? Seems the that problem is, if i go with the
default 'Same as source' I'm left to guess what that might be when
exporting from flash, as nothing ever actually tells me what that
source frame rate actually was! Is there some natural audio
compression business inside mpeg video that works fine for mpeg
video, but the flash encoder can't handle well? I've tried it with
about a billion different frame rate, audio data rate, quality, and
export settings, and have yet to get a sync.
Thanks in advance!

I should have been more clear.
I changed the file name from .vob to .mpg and then tried to
add the video file to Flash 8 Video Encoder and received the
following error message:
"You won't be able to encode this file. Your computer doesn't
have the necessary codec or the file is corrupt."
Currently,
I use ffmpegx to convert the .vob to .dv and then, I import
the .dv into Flash 8 Video Encoder and convert it to a .flv....
I can use ffmpegx to go straight to a .flv, but the file size
is larger b/c the compression is different, not On2 VP6...
I would like to skip the middle step because my files are
very large and it takes extra time.

.swf to .flv using Flash 8 Video Encoder

I have brought a .swf file in to Flash 8 Video Encoder to
convert to a .flv file, after Queue is completed the .flv file
doubles in size. I tried changing the "key frame placement" and
"Date rate" to bring the file down but the .flv file doesn't go
down that much. So what am I missing? I want a .swf 8,166 KB to be
a .flv about half that size, is this possible? If so, am I using
the wrong program?
vicky

well that's the thing - the metadata never traces out if the
video was encoded with flash video encoder, but that code would
work fine with video encoded with sorenson squeeze.
think I have worked it out now though: in order to pause the
video at start I am calling NetStream.seek(0) when I receive
"NetStream.play.start".
For some reason when I do this with flvs encoded using flash
video encoder, it stops the onMetaData event from firing - but
works fine with other flvs! weird... shall have to find another way
of pausing the video at the start I guess.
thanks for the reply though

Blank screen in Flash 8 Video Encoder with DivX

When using the Flash 8 video encoder to encode a DivX file, I
get a blank screen. No problem with the wmv files I've tried. this
is on two freshly purchased HP Windows Media Center XP PCs. Have
not had the same issue with our older Dell PCs, also XP(Pro not
Media Center). I have re-installed Flash 8 and the Divx codecs but
still have the issue.
Any ideas?

I have this option from right click menu - Convert to Mpeg 2
and save.
By the way, does your CD comes with Sony Vega program?
This one is able to open Sony's raw file format and export to
very nice
quality mpeg that works superb in flash. I did lots of video
using Vega,
to adjust the sharpness, color contrasts and all, before
start exporting and
down sizing...

Flash 8 Video Encoder corrupted

I have Studio 8. It seems that my copy of Video Encoder is corrupt both on my hard drive and on the install CD. When I try to repair the install it asks me to load disk 1 - which of course is loaded. Flash works fine as do all my other Macromedia products. Any ideas please?

Flash 8 video Encoder & .VOB

I receive .vob files and would like to go directly from them
to a .flv using the Flash 8 video encoder, but am not able. Does
anyone know if there are any work arounds or plugins to do this? Is
any one else has success doing this. I would like to avoid
converting the .vob into a .dv/mov/mov/avi/etc.... to get this to
work.
Thanks.

I should have been more clear.
I changed the file name from .vob to .mpg and then tried to
add the video file to Flash 8 Video Encoder and received the

Flash 8 Video Encoder multiple instances

Is there any way I can set up to run multiple instances of
Flash 8 Video Encoder to take advantage of a multi core resource? I
have a dual CPU dual Opteron box (ie, 4 cores available) and find
it disappointing to see such slow renders and all that CPU going to
waste.
On the other hand, does anyone know of a really good, fast,
multi-threaded ON2 VP6 solution? I also use Autodesk Cleaner which
is still dependent on the Flash 8 encoder (and therefor on
Quicktime) and doesn't do any better, and is also very unstable
around Quicktime.

Make sure you don't forget t do that.
Ah, yes, I had missed that, thank you. There are two sliders
(Win Version) : Compression Thread Active Priority and Inactive
Priority. I'm not sure what that means, but did a test with just
the active thread to max, and it made no difference to apparent cpu
core activity nor to render time. I've just tried it again with
both sliders maxed, with the same result. It may be that on a
machine that hasn't got much headroom, or is concurrently doing a
lot of other work, that this makes a difference. It may also be the
difference between the Win and Mac versions of the software and the
respective OSes. (Maybe it isn't even hooked up for
Win :-) )
Anyway, really appreciate the input, I'm pretty sold on
Squeeze with ON2 VP6 for my Flash work, sticking with Cleaner for
my Windows Media, runs really well. I've just started an overnight
test running Squeeze on Flash output and Cleaner on WMV output
concurrently. Still no where near maxing the cores, so will be
interesting to see what it does to render times.

No video after Flash 8 Video Encoder

I have read some other posts and although they are similar,
none of the solutions posted helps me fix my specific issue.
Using Flash 8 on Windows XP Pro SP2, I have a MPEG-2 file. I
can play the MPEG file using Windows Media Player 11 and RealPlayer
11 but I cannot play it using QuickTime 7.2. When I load the MPEG
file into Flash 8 Video Encoder (to convert it to a FLV file), it
doesn't seem to recognize that there is a video portion. It
recognizes there is an audio portion. By this I mean:
1. In Flash 8, click on File > Import > Import video...
2. Browsed to the MPEG file and clicked Next
3. Selected Progressive download... and clicked Next
4. In the Encoding screen, the video portion (top right hand
corner) is just blank.
In the MPEG files that work, I see the first frame of the
video. So, Flash 8 Video Encoder does not recognize there is a
video portion. Also, in Advanced Settings, in the Encodign tab, the
Encode Video checkbox is grayed out and not selectable. Only the
Encode Audio is checkable.
In writing this, I think the problem is my MPEG file. So I'll
continue to search the net for solutions to this. I just hope
someone has run into this issue in this forum and provide some
guidance.
Thanks.

Flash 8 video encoder + SWF

Hi,
I need to convert some video file with the flash 8 video
encoder but i need an SWF output instead of a FLV. I know FLV is
the best for internet use but we can't integrate those type of file
in director so I really ned a swf file. I was wondering how could I
do it ...
II've tried to import the FLV in Flash 8 as an embedded video
but as the warning said the audio is not synched with the video
when i export it. Anyone have an idea how could I export a SWF
without beeing linked to the FLV ??
Thanks,

try to play FLV file?
download & install FLV player,
try this:

expecting a SWF file?
- import your flv into a flash movie & publish it

Flash 8 Video Encoder - Optimizing Conversion Time

I'm using the Flash 8 Video Encoder to convert .mov files to
flv files. On my station I have the following:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro1,1
Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB
Memory: 12 GB
Bus Speed: 1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MP11.005C.B08
SMC Version: 1.7f10
I've got 151 GB available on my system drive.
Presently, it is taking me approximately 2 hours 45 minutes
to convert a 6 minute 26 sec mov to a flv with custom settings of:
Max Date Rate: 300 kbps
Frame Rate: Same as Source
Audio Data Rate: 48 kbps (mono)
500 x 333 pixels.
HOWEVER, on an associate's computer he is able to convert
under the same specs, same files, etc. in 1 hour 40 minutes.
His computer specs are:
Power Mac G5
Processor Speed - 2.3 GHz
2-CPU's
L2 Cache - 1 mb per CPU
Memory - 16 GB
Bus Speed 1.15 GHz
My computer has much more powerful processor, so we're
confused why it's taking longer on my computer.
I also have a second internal drive but presently the
programs and source file are on my system HD. Someone suggested
that I should try to make sure that the Video Encoder has max RAM
allocated to it as well as having the scratch disk and cache set to
the second internal drive. I don't know how to do this or even if
it's possible but looking for advice and suggestions on how to
better optimize the Video Encoder and would appreciate any help
with this ASAP.
Thanks!
