My Flash Video is not working in my webpage

Could you please tell me what I am doing wrong?
I have dreamweaver CS3
I did use the Media option to insert the Flash Video content in my web page. When viewed in dreamweaver design window I can see the box, if I try to preview it http://www.stmarksavalon.org.au/public_html/pages/resources/TMPdwowk3qayn.php displays a 404 error.
I did upload to the host the .php and related files and try different browsers and does not display even the white space where the video means to appear
The original video format was MP4 I did converted it to FLV using the free software at www.dvdvideosoft.com
I did upload the encoded Flash Video (FLV) and the related files and the webpage
http://www.stmarksavalon.org.au/pages/resources/videos.php

Hi Melanie,
what I saw first is this:
That means. your *.flv-file is in your DW, ok, BUT, ist it on your server?
And are you really sure, that you did all the required DW-steps? In order you could control this I'll try to describe in detail from the beginning (translated from my German DW):
Create a really new subdirectory (not absolutely necessary, only to see/control the steps).
Create a new html/php-file.
Work in designMode --> Insert Flash-Video.
Search/browse ---> yourFLV.flv
Skin: Halo Skin 3 (min. width 280) ( it was my choice)
width 640 ( it's my choice)
height 480 ( it's my choice)
I clicked all the boxes
---> And now away with all these files below (produced from DW) to your server.
Best you have a look with WIN-Explorer into your directory, to see all the files DW has created in your subdirectory and don't forget one):
YourFlv.flv
YourFlv.htm (or YourFlv.php)
Clear_Skin_1.swf (my choice)
FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf
Could it be, that there is only the "FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf" on your server?

Flash video has not worked with Firefox browser for years. When will you fix this?

Anyone who uses Firefox browser (for Windows or for Mac) knows that flash video playback ceased working sometime around Firefox ver 13 and has not worked since.
The Mozilla people say it is Adobe's fault - instead of fixing Firefox.
They say roll back to Adobe Flash version 10.
This solves the video problem, but then, any other services that depend on the latest Flash build, quit working properly.
This situation leaves millions of Firefox users in perpetual frustration. We can't use our browser of choice to view any web video built with Flash.
This is so unacceptable. I am unable to understand why Adobe and Firefox don't get together and iron out whatever code incompatibility is causing this.
I would really like to hear Adobe's explanation for this.

Uh... I don't know what planet you posted this from, but Flash video has worked flawlessly with Firefox for hundreds of millions of users here on earth, without any gaps since Firefox was still called Mozilla.
For the record, I have Firefox 28 with Flash Player 13 installed on:
WIndows XP (SP3-64bit)
Windows Vista Ultimate (SP2-64bit)
Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1-64bit)
Windows 8 Enterprise (64bit-2 machines)
Windows 8.1 Enterprise (64 bit)
OS 0.6.8 Server
OS10.7.5
OS10.8.5
OS10.9.2
And I've had Firefox with Flash Player since 2003 on both OS formats. I've never had a compatibility problem.
I also use Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari and a few other browsers you probably never heard of (like SeaMonkey, Maxthon, Waterfox, iCab, OmniWeb)... Flash works in all of them.
I'd have to say the problem is with your system specifically, because if it was a Firefox/Flash compatibility problem, there would have been hundreds of millions of complaints about it, for over a decade. That... just isn't the case.

Flash video path not working on Mac

Using the Flash Video component in Flash 8 I place my .flv in
a directory called Video and then enter the path into the component
as
Video\myvideo.flv
When it runs off my web site on Windows XP all is well but on
a Mac OS X it fails to play. If I place the video in the route on
the web server and alter the file path to just myvideo.flv it
works!
So is there a special symbol I need to use for the file
seperator to make it work correctly on both platforms?

Hi, Make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is Enabled for one thing. I'm not familiar with Webcams so can't help you with that.
If you have Installed Flash Player then test at this site to see if you can see the animation of the Flash logo and what version is listed.

Flash video seeking not working properly

I reinstalled Arch, and I have a problem with seeking flash videos. I'm using the latest offical Adobe Flash player. When I seek (i.e. make the video jump to another point in time) a flash video, the video frame freezes. The playback continues though and the audio works fine. The problem occurs on both Firefox and Opera. The problem does not occur in all flash video sites. Youtube and YLE Areena are affected, Dailymotion and Vimeo are not.

There have been several posts recently about this. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=114594
edit: I didn't read your post correctly, sorry.

Flash 10.1 not working on selected webpages (all browsers)

I'll admit I'm at my wits end when it comes to this problem. I have done all of the most logical and most suggested methods to try and fix it, to no avail. I don't recall when this problem started, unfortunately, but it hasn't always been a problem.
First, my basic specs.
HP Pavilion d4600y
Windows XP-Home Edition
Firefox 3.6.8, IE 7.0, Chrome 5.0.375
Webroot SpySweeper with Anti-virus
I also run WinPatrol, and Ad-Aware.
I have done a clean uninstall and reinstall of both Flash and Shockwave, to no avail.
I can't discern any noticeable pattern between which websites work, and which ones don't. YouTube, Google Video, Megavideo all work. ESPN and selected other sites don't.
The same sets of sites work and don't work in all 3 browsers listed above, which really makes me think it's a Flash problem.
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers,
Cameron

Hi Vinny, LOL, I had the right thread, just the wrong link!! I was on several sites researching and that google link was one of them but didn't intend to post it to you:-)

On that FF, I couldn't find anything helpful on the forum there. I think I'll look elsewhere.

Flash video link not working

Hi all,
I am using Flash CS5 on MAC/OS10.6.
I created a Flash project a few months ago which was published as HTML and SWF. Everything ran beautifly until today. Infact it ran great yesterday. Now when I click on the HTML or SWF, the video controls are there but no movie. I had this file saved in four different areas, niether work now. what would cause this?
The movie file, and the skin file resdie in the same folder as the FLA file.
Thank you in advance.

Would you mind reposting this question over on the Flash Professional forums? This forum is primarily for end users, the Pro forums will get you in touch with a wider developer audience.
Thanks,
Chris

Embedded flash player is not working... Unable to play the streaming videos... Browser is hanging many times!!

Hi,
Pls help me to fix an issue with my playbook browser. The embedded flash player is not working... Unable to play the streaming videos... Browser is hanging many times. Restart done, cleared history etc.. Still doesn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello ak_kanan,
Welcome to the forums.
Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off. Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue.
Let us know how you make out.

Flash Player does not work after steps to resolution

I am using Windows 8.1 and flash player will not work. I have "enabled" and removed Active X control as per instructions but it still does not work.

8.1 means Ie11... and that means...
"User-Agent Strings"
That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess thay've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1?

Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1 64, If i try and play a video I get the message to install Flashplayer.
If I try and install it it says it is already installed. Your onsite installer says it is not applicable to my machine.
I have followed all the normal steps re enabling addons and active filters etc.
all to no avail Pc is Dell 6 months old, Flashplayer has never worked on this machine. Last MS update mid Dec 2014.
Version of flashplayer is 15....03.......

Flash Player is a built-in component of Internet Explorer. There's nothing separate to download or install.
Firefox requires a different version of Flash Player (the NPAPI plug-in), which will be served to you if you go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Firefox; however, there are some unique stability issues related to Firefox on Win8.1, and you're probably better off using Google Chrome if you want a more optimal experience with Flash Player.
For problems where IE isn't being detected by sites that require Flash:
First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
