Modification needed in scrollbar in flash 8 file

i am a newbie flash designer. a client has asked me to make modifications in a flash file used on his website. it is flash 8 actionscript. i am currently working on the same and would appreciate your help. the client has given me 'proprietorytools.swf' file which i decompiled using sothink decompiler 4.5 build 90120 to '~proprierarytools original.fla'. the xml folder resides in the same folder as ~proprierarytools original.fla. it contains proprierarytools.xml. you can download these files at http://rapidshare.com/files/252995106/scrollbar_questions.zip
i discovered a problem - if you view 'proprietorytools.swf' - when you click on 'aims', you can see that the scrollbar works perfectly. when you click on advigil, you can see that the scrollbar is faulty. it starts lower than the other links scollbars and has no thumb. the entire text in the xml file is not displayed.
please help me to resolve this problem.
my additional questions are:
has the creator of the swf file use some unique scrollbar code or is this scrollbar provided in flash itself. in this case, i can read a tutorial to understand it better.
is it possible to copy the scrollbar code from the links where it works, to advigil, where it doesnt work
is this an easy bug to resolve or is it difficult?
i have given 'scrollbar works.jpg' and 'scrollbar doesnt work.jpg' to further explain my query.
please tell me if i have explained my problem properly or further clarifications are needed.

the screenshots and all relevant files are contained in http://rapidshare.com/files/252995106/scrollbar_questions.zip, but i am attaching them to this post for your benefit.

Browser scrollbar and Flash scrollbar ? I need help!

Now I have a problem about the scrollbar:
The height of my swf file is longer than browser height, so
the scrollbar of browser's occurred, if I scroll my mouse wheel,
the whole flash roll down, but the problem is that I have used a
scrollPanel component which write by myself, and in this situation,
when I scroll the mouse wheel, the scrollbar in flash and browser
will both in effect.
The question is that how to disable the brower scrollbar when
I scroll mouse wheel inside the scrollPanel component. In fact,
adobe already done this, if my cursor inside a textfield object,
the scrollbar of bowser will not get focus. How to achieve this
effect? My english is bad, but I need help!

i recently downloaded trails of flash cs4 and web premium package cs4 (took a day to download at high speed starbuck's internet). couldnt get the setup.exe to work or the uninstaller to work. surfing tech support over next couple weeks to try various agents was useless and expensive until i finally reached someone with useful info. all the agents had foriegn accents and read from scripts and web support pages until yesterday, when i reached a guy who told me two things i'll report to various forums addressing this same issue:
1. download windows uninstaller program from their website (google: windows ininstaller). this program is different from the one that doesnt work in the programs and features area of control panel when you try to uninstall adobe products from there.
2. windows explorer 8, the newest version, DOES NOT download adobe softare properly and leaves things out, causing all sorts of issues including the setup.exe program not working. download firefox browser from mozella (google: firefox) and use it for all adobe downloads. apparently the old windows explorer 7 will work, but if you already have explorer 8 installed its easiest to just use firefox.
i'm spending the next couple days downloading the 4.14 G web premium trail with firefox and will report if this works.

What HTML code do I need to get Adobe Flash to play an embedded MP4 video file (8 MB)?

What HTML code do I need to get Adobe Flash to play an embedded MP4 video file (8 MB)?
Thanks
Mark

Here are a couple of ways, one using the Netstream class and the other using the FLVPlayback component.
For the NetStream approach, the following in the timeline code will play/loop the intended mp4 file...
     var video:Video;
     var connect_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
     connect_nc.connect(null);
     var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(connect_nc);
     stream_ns.client = this;
     function netStatusHandler(p_evt:NetStatusEvent):void {
         if (p_evt.info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop") {
             stream_ns.seek(0); // to loop the video
     stream_ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
     video = new Video();
     addChild(video);
     video.attachNetStream(stream_ns);
     stream_ns.play("path_to/your.mp4");
For the FLVPlayback component, add it to the stage, give it an instance name ("fp" used below), assign your mp4 file ("path_to/your.mp4") as the source property in the Properties panel, and select the option to autoplay as well. Place the following code in the timeline...
     fp.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, playAgain);
     function playAgain(evt:Event):void {
         fp.play();
To put the Flash swf file in an html page, in the Publish Settings set it to publish an swf and an html page. Publish the file an the html page will be created for you.

How can I script a Flash .exe file to always stay on top of all other windows?

Hi All,
I'm new to action script, and I just need this one script
> How can I script a Flash .exe file to always stay on top of
all other windows?
Basically what i want to do is have a flash-created
step-by-step instructional movie, but for the movie to remain on
top of all windows so the instructee is able to follow the
instructions on-screen...
It would be preferable to not have to buy another product
just to do this... as I said, this is the only scripting I need.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Rick

I am going to place a 30 minutes dvd film on a website for one of my clients. Before converting tje old vhs-film to dvd I must know what format will suit the needs best. HTTP, Flash, Quicktime or something else?

I am going to place a 30 minutes dvd film on a website for one of my clients. The film was shot 15 years ago and is in vhs-format. Before I will have the film converted into a dvd-format I want to know what format will suit my needs best. HTTP, Flash, Quicktime or something else? I will make it easy for myself placering the dvd film on the site and for the vistors who wish to look att the film.

The DVD format (MPEG-2) isn't appropriate for Web use.
Use QuickTime and H.264 video codec with AAC audio. Size the file at 320X240 (best fit for your old file).

Importing existing flash video files??

howdy
quick question. if you import existing flash video files into an encore project, will this help reduce the final render time? or will encore rerender the existing flash video files?
cheers
angus

Encore CS3 won't import FLV files. You must render the project to Flash.
You may want to file a feature request at Adobe's support page asking for support for Flash-ready assets, to eliminate the need to transcode in Encore.

Flash flv file problems

I don't know if this is a fault on my part or not, it probably is though. I have been at this for over two days now, trying to figure out a way to do convert quicktime to swf.
I managed to create a flv file of the movie, the audio and video works with it. However when brining it into flash, the video time stretches so much that it's incredibly slow. Oddly enough the audio stays the same. I can export it as a swf after publishing it, but I don't like how messed up the audio and video are.
Is there a way to restretch the video in Flash? Or any other solution you can think of. I really need help as I have exhausted all resources that I can possibly think of. I am an amateur at best with these programs. Thank you for any help...

The biggest issue with out of sync audio/video when "embedding" an flv into the main timeline is that the frame rate of the Flash doc is not set to exactly the same frame rate as the video. So if the video was shot at 29.97 frames per second, you need to set the Flash doc to exactly that, 29.97. And unless there are some Internet download connection speed issues, it pretty much keeps the audio/video synced.
It only makes sense that playing a 29.97 video file in a 15 frames per seond Flash doc will slow the video display way down, since one frame of video equals one frame in Flash... but the audio part just plays at normal speed... otherwise it would be way distorted, like playing a tape/record in slow motion.
Here's a short sample video embedded directly into the timeline in a Flash doc set to 29.97 frames per sec:
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/sync.html
That being said, I would still not recommend embedding video into the main timeline except under special circumstances. Use the FLVPlayback component or NetStream to play an external video.

Export a Flash Movie File

Can you Export Flash Movie files to other formats?? Don see
an Export to other File options.
Would like to Export a Flash Movie or SWF file to a Quicktime
or IPOD MPEG File.
Anyone know where to do this? Do not see an Export to File
option to that Format on Flash Pro CS.
Thanks

Without seeing your movie, its difficult to tell where the
problem may be. My first guess is that the data rate is to high.
You will probably need to choke that back in some way: lower the
data rate for the compressor, reduce the frame rate, reduce the
image size, reduce the color depth, etc.
When you select to export to QT, for example, a new window
opens to let you select some basic settings. At the lower right of
that window is a button titled "Quicktime Settings...". Click that
button and a new window will open that will allow you to set the
compressor, frame rate, quality, etc.

CS4 Flash Projector File and Authenticode (Code Signing)

I have a flash projector file (.exe) that I need to add Code Signing to it so it does not say 'Unknown Publisher' in Vista. I read that for CS3 there is no authenticode signing. Was this added in CS4? I just want to check before I go ahead and purchase a 3rd party app like Juggler. Does anyone else have a suggestion for software to add authenticode signature to a CS4 flash projector file? Jugglor is pretty old (2007) and I would like to know if there are more recent apps to package and sign projector files.
Thanks for any info.
Doug

You can use a tool from Miscsoft to sign your projector. Here's how:
1) Buy a code signing certificate from someone like COMODO, Entrust Thawte, or VeriSign
2) Download the command line code signing tool from Microsoft - SignTool.exe
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8s9b9yaz(VS.80).aspx
2) Follow these instructions

Flash fla files corrupted by CVS

Hi,
I have saved my Flash fla files with Eclipse CVS and some where on the way, I set their ASCII\BINARY value to ASCII and now my files are totally corrupted.
Does anyone know of a way to fix fla files that were saved as ASCII in CVS?
Thanks for your help.

Well, I'm not quite sure what kind of cards am I using. The SD card is a common one, one of those you use for digital cameras. It's a 2GB SanDisk, quite new. The flash drive is an 8GB Data Traveler...
And, yes - the AVIs are quite big (biggest one is around 700MB, and they're about 5 or 6 with 500MB)
Anyway, I'm totally sure the files are extremely corrupted because I didn't save them on a HD... I've tried in VLC, DivX... They simply wont open the files (I mean, I don't get soundless blank screens or other kind of synthom you usually read in AVI help threads). I even went to my university's media lab and one of the teachers told me that I did wrong when I transferred the files directly from the SD card to the flash drive, without saving them on a hard disk first.
The camera isn't the cause of the problems, because yesterday I've made new videos with it and I emptyed the SD card directly to my own Mac with no problems on those AVIs at all.
In addition to all this, the flash drive presented life signs at the media lab's iMac -- the archive containing the AVI files turned unrecognizable (had that icon like a black card with green "exec" letters); when we opened it on a Windows, a lot of archives appeared and their names were in constant change.
Worst of all is that I've already format the SD card twice ^_^" (I didn't know the AVIs were corrupted - I just thought I needed QT Pro). All my hopes are relying on the flash drive.
Today I've tried recovering the flash drive's files with Data Rescue and StellarPhoenix software (all of them very limited demos) but it was all useless.
Sorry for the word labyrinth; thanks for your help..

Flash Source Files into Captivate 5

Hello All,
Need some help. I had some files developed by a client whom will remain nameless, and I promise not to mention anything about them because your experience may be better than mine. I have flash source files that won't play nice on this new LMS. I would like to take the source files and import the files into Captivate, so I can use Captivate to publish the course originally derived in Flash. Can someone explain to me how I can make this happen and maintain the functionality that I have in the swf files.
Chris.

So you have a course developed entirely in Flash and you have the FLA source files and want to import these into Captivate? If that is what you mean then unfortunately that is not possible.
Although Flash and Captivate are "similar" you cannot import a whole FLA file into the Captivate authoring environment like that. You can import animations, widgets and relatively complex Flash stuff into Captivate by inserting this as an animation into a Captivate slide but not a complete course.
If you want to use Captivate for your course then unfortunately you will need to create the course in Captivate from the start.

Export for flash-movie file conversion.

I want to prepare files for the highest quality possible for conversion to flash-movie files. I recorded in HDV- edited in HDV- send to Color in HDV- and now my question is if I should send it to FCP from Color in 10 bit-uncompressed to keep the highest quality?
Also at the end exporting from FCP- should I change my sequence settings? Again I need the very highest quality for later conversion to a flash-movie file, and was told that uncompressed is the way to go??
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks- Adam.

"Keeping" the quality isn't really the issue-- if you're working in HDV, there's nothing to gain by going to Uncompressed, because you weren't working in Uncompressed in the first place. The exception to this is color grading and graphics: ideally, you would be working in a higher quality sequence such as ProRes (Uncompressed is probably overkill) in both FCP and Color.
Of course, I can't honestly say that any of this will make a difference in a Flash movie-- Flash is for web delivery, and to bring it down to a bitrate suitable for the web, you'll likely lose anything you might have gained from this process.
