No audio from .swf files

When using Kutoka's EazySpeak French program, I get no audio at all. The animations are all .swf files, and I'm using 10.4.10 on a MacBook. Already upgraded to latest Flash 9 universal binary, and checked output in Audio Midi Setup - it's still 44100 and I don't use any other third-party program that has changed it. Any suggestions?

Hi pikepike
Welcome to macbook forum.
In addition to troy enn well said reply, here is link to shockwave player for it might be able to run properly on shockwave player, and the rest is mostly similar to troy enn just said:

If all you want is to create a backup of some file you can do:public class Foo
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Foo f = new Foo();
        f.createBackup("something.xls");
    public void createBackup(String inFile) {
        FileInputStream in = null;
        FileOutputStream out = null;
        try {
            in = new FileInputStream(inFile);
            out = new FileOutputStream(inFile + ".bak");
            int read;
            while ((read = in.read()) > -1) {
                out.write(read);
            out.flush();

Capturing audio from avi file

I want to capture just the audio from avi file. Here is what I did. I dragged the avi into garage band and saw a separate audio and video track. I tried to import the just the audio into itunes but it would only let me import both video and audio. I decided to burn the audio to cd and then import it into itunes. This seemed to work but I would like to know if there is a better method. I figure there must be. Anybody out there tried this?

i'm not near my GB machine to test this, but see if you can Share to Disk and make sure the Compress checkBox is not selected.

Detect audio in swf file?

Hello,
We are working with a software package that records the
user's screen and audio from their microphone and then saves the
recorded session (video + audio) to an swf file.
Unfortunately sometimes there are audio problems during
recording and when you play back the swf file you can see the video
but you don't hear any sound;.
Is there a way programatically to detect if the file contains
audio or not? Furthermore since all files are indeed intended to
have audio, is there a way to determine if the audio in the file is
something other than the sound of silence (i.e. some actual noise
or activity in the audio stream)?
Thank you

What's the name of the product? Who is the manufacture? Have you talked to them? I assume this product produces a swf but no fla. It sounds like either the product is defective or you're not using it right. I suppose there are several products that do that the only one that I know about is Captivate.
Captivate has a Forum here at Adobe. You could import the swf and talk to it but I'm still trying to figure that one out so I can't help you there.

Record audio from .exe file

Hi we had created an entire project of 2.5 hours of around 140 slides using Adobe Captivate 6. We had put the slide notes as text and published an .exe file and shared the same with the client.
However, now we have lost the source captivate .cptx file and have to redo the project from scratch. We have the powerpoint presentation for each slide so putting the objects as per the .exe is not an issue.
We figured the easiest way to have the audio is to record directly from the .exe and then put the audio files in captivate, rather than putting slide notes and repeating the entire process.
Is there a way to directly record audio from the .exe file? This will reduce our effort with respect to the pronunciation of words.

Double-click your .exe file and let it run, do not close. If you're on Windows 7 go to
C:\Users\your user name\AppData\Local\Temp\
and look for a folder like CPE7770.tmp. You can use the date and time stamp to locate this folder.
Your swf file will be there.
If on another Windows OS, the path should be similar.
You can also use software like Audacity or Audition to record audio from your computer. Set up will depend on your system config.
Cheers,
Seth

Using Acrobat to create a PDF from .swf files

I'm trying to beef up a standard powerpoint presentation into something i could have more control over, and was considering Acrobat as it would (i hoped) allow me to import .swf files from Flash. In reading up on just how flexible acrobat is though, it doesn't really seem to have all of the functionality that i want - if anyone could offer feedback on the following, that would be great in terms of clearing up the queries that i have beforehand!
essentially, i want to create a PDF file which will open fulllscreen on any machine with no toolbars, windows, additional content in the window except my PDF content. So i would have a central shape/box, which would be white, on which i have text.
I want this to open centrescreen, fullscreen, with no acrobat reader branding / navigation visible at all. Similar to the way a powerpoint document would open, however - i don't want Adobe Reader to scale my PDF at all.
I've set my canvas in flash to 1024x768, and i would want Reader to display my file at exactly 1024x768 pixels, and not scale the document up to suit different monitors. So in a way, utilising something like you could with a Flash projector file where you could set the fullscreen's "allowscale" function to "false" (keeping the document at exactly 100%) and the actual fullscreen call itself to "true" (display the document in fullscreen mode, taking over your entire monitor).
Also, i would want to specify a 'background', which is simple in flash as i can just create an oversized movie clip with whatever i want to appear in the background, and this will cover any excess area in monitors that exceed my canvas size. (So i usually create a movie clip of an image or gradient for the background that measures 2600 x 1600 pixels). Will acrobat be able to render this correctly, or is it just going to display the actual canvas size and exclude my oversized 'background' movie clip? If i use my 1024 x 768 canvas, will it clip the big background movie clip to fit?
Thanks folks... bit long winded but i just wanted to make sure i've covered the bases!

Like it or not, InDesign is a color managed application, and your files are all being managed.
You'll always have less grief if the working spaces match the output, but that isn't always possible. If you want to to convert to the profiles specified in the CSF file, choose one of the "Convert to Profile" settings and select the correct profile as the destination. You'll have two options, preserve numbers, or don't preserve numbers.
Preserving numbers will cause colors to shift, but will preserve 100% K blacks. Not preseving numbers will change the numbers to give you the closes match possible in appearance, but will royally screw up your 100% K type if going to press.

Audio in .swf file will play on Mac, not on PC ...

here is another one i need help with.
I have a .swf file on the stage. when you press the space
bar, or press a button on the .swf, audio plays. This works
perfectly on a Mac. On a PC, the .swf file annimates as it is
supposed to, but there is no audio. When i open the .swf file in
internet explorer on a PC, it works as it is supposed to, so its
not a problem with my speakers or anything.
Thoughts? ... why would the audio in flash member play on a
Mac and not a PC? ... am I missing a setting somewhere?
thanks a million in advance!
And, in case it matters, this is being deloped with director
MX 2004, Mac 0S 10.5, PC running windows XP.

Please don't post the same question to as many forums as you
can find.

How can i cut the audio from 1 file and put it on another?

I have these2 files of the same movie, 1 is amazing quality but theres no audio. the other is crummy quality but has perfect audio. How can I cut the audio from the good audio version and paste it onto the good video file?
btw i have quicktime pro is that changes anything

Open the movie and press "Command J". This will bring up the properties window. Click on the Audio Track or Video Track and the "Extract/Delete" buttons will light up. Click "Delete" and it'll delete the currently selected track, click "Extract" and it will extract the selected track into a new movie. Just use Delete on the correct track and you're halfway there.
Then, select the movie that is just an Audio Track now, do "Command A" then "Command C" to copy the audio track. Go to the movie that's just a video track, move the insertion point to the beginning of the video then do "Option Command V" to add the Audio Track to the Video Track side by side.

Premiere Degrading Quality (after rendering) of Animation Codec mov's and 4444 Codec mov's, which were made from SWF files, originally exported out of After Effects

I am making a cartoon, which was created in FLASH,
Then the SWF's were put into After Effects and exported out as MOV's. (I've tried both AppleProRes4444 and Animation codecs).
Then I put those Mov's into Premiere. Everything looks crisp until I render. Once rendering is done, the video quality degrades. Here's a screen shot of Premiere:
On the left is the source MOV (exported from AE), on the right is the timeline viewer (after rendering). The quality on the right is degraded. Help?
If I use MP4 versions, exported out of Flash, through Media encoder, quality is not degraded.
(Read on for additional info)
It was easy and quick to create my MOV's out of AE, which is why I did it this way. I'm exporting to MOV's so I can edit quicker in Premiere. I find editing to sound in AE really difficult, and I don't edit in Flash (employees provide SWF files to me).
Here is sequence settings in Premiere (these setting were created by dragging an MOV into the sequence and choosing "change settings" to match clip settings.
Help? Please?

Extracting audio from video file to edit...

i know in imovie it's easy you just select the video then go up top and select the extract audio tab...
but how can you extract the audio from a video file in final cut so are able to edit the audio and video files separately from one another WITHIN final cut??

no output volume? ... you need to check your setting under the View menu > Audio Playback ... where are you sending the audio? maybe you're routing it to follow the video out through firewire to your DV device, in which case you need to turn up the speakers on your DV monitoring equipment
...or is this a muxed MPEG file? if so you need to demux it before bringing it into FCP, or better still, convert it to a more appropriate edit codec (you can use the excellent and free MPEG Streamclip application to do this)

Linking from SWF files to web pages

Hi
I'm using the latest Flash CS3.
Basically, I want to link from the SWF file to a webpage.
Here's what I've done so far.
Created the FLA file, imported the quicktime movie into it
etc etc.
I've then added a behaviour by clicking on the inserted
movie, then BEHAVIORS >WEB> GO TO WEB PAGE> and filled in
all the relevant text for the link.
Then I have saved the file. Then I have published then OK.
I have embeded the SWF file in a web page, but when I click
on the movie, it shows there's a link, but it won't link to the
webpage.
What am I doing wrong? I dont understand.
Can't get my head around this!
When I go to the FLA file, then publish preview > flash,
and the movie appears on its own, the link works... but the SWF
file doesn't.
Basically what do I need to do to make it work.
The coding I am using in my web-page is:
<p align="center"><center>
<object width="165" height="100">
<param name="movie" value="
http://homovision.media7london.com/wordpress/Newcontribute.swf"
/>
<embed src="
http://homovision.media7london.com/wordpress/Newcontribute.swf"
width="165" height="100" />
</object>
</p></center>
The movie plays, the "link hand" appears above it, but when
it is clicked nothign happens.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Calling method from SWF file wtih javascript, when swf file is not loaded in any browser

Hi There,
I have a question regarding flex and javascript integration:

4. Now if user generate graph from datapoint and want to export it, we are tranferring image of that graph from UI to backend. No issues in this process.
5. Now the question is. let say user has not open any swf file in browser and backend scheduling job want to generate the graph. How we will connect to swf file.
6. Is ther any way we can connect or call method of swf from java/jsp/html/javascript code in this scenario without loading swf file in browser??
Please help me!!!
Thanks

Both test sites work just fine for me.
The "Update plugin" message is exactly what would be displayed if no .swfobject file at all was found... so it may not be the "version11" thing but rather, perhaps something else is messed up with the .swfobject file.
File can be found in both folders:
http://www.pureimaginationcakes.com/test/Scripts/swfobject_modified.js
http://www.pureimaginationcakes.com/Scripts/swfobject_modified.js
and file does download when downloading the html page (just check the cache).... but for some reason it doesn't seem to be working.... Hummmmm????

No audio from avi file-PE4 & Vista 64

I looked at the post for this topic from Adobe. Did all the steps regarding the audio driver for not hearing audio from ALL clips. I can hear any sound from the headphones jack for ANY audio device. And the AVI file plays back with sound in WMPlayer and in Windows Movie Maker. When I go to Preferences, Audio hardware, default device - the ONLY device listed is the Premier Elements Windows Sound. Beneath it is the ASIO settings. That contains the proper setting for the Realtech sound card. I am not able to select the ASIO device as the new default device. I followed the Adobe post closely but I still get no sound output from PE4. What next?

I do show the ASIO button in the Audio Hardware window.
The only reason that mine does not show on the screen-cap is because it fades out in the GUI, when it's open.
Did we determine that when this file is played, in say WMP, you do get Audio? Unfortunately, with the new forum software, I can't see anything, except the post to which I am replying. [Edit] Yes we did.
Did you have any luck with ASIO4ALL?

Audio from media files becomes corrupted, but video from same files remains fine.

I've been recording footage on a Sony nxcam in AVCHD 1080p 30fps for use in a premiere pro project. After importing the files into premiere they all work perfectly fine, no video or audio issues. I edited an entire narration using only the audio from the media files, and then left my computer for about an hour to get lunch. Upon return, the audio in the files skips huge chunks, and ends about a minute before the video ends, but the video seems unaffected. Deleting and reimporting the files doesn't solve the issue, somehow only the audio in media clips seems to have been severly messed up. This happened again earlier this morning, a media file was working fine, and then suddenly only the audio has huge chunks missing out of it, and the remaining chunks are all bunched together with no gaps so that the audio ends minutes before the video does. Any ideas?

Close Premiere and go to your Media Cache Directory for Premiere. Select ALL and Delete those files. Open Premiere and that project and let it conform again. See if the audio is fine.

Video from SWF file

Hi,
I need to get my animations from Flash Pro CC into a nice crisp looking video clip.
When I use the option in Flash Pro File - Export- Export Video, I do get a video file. But it looks a bit too blurry. The SWF file itself is much crispier.
When I use the workflow with After Effects, described here https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1328048, the picture is much more crisp, but I lose the parts in the animation witch were not on the timeline, but coded and also I lose all nested animations (like blinking with eyes etc.).
How could I use the workflow – Flash – After Effects – Premier Pro, but without losing the coded animations in SWF file and the nested animations?

Well there's at least some of your trouble. You can NOT export a movie clip with code to a video. it won't work, which is probably WHY your movie is blank in the first place. Especially if you're asking that code to place movie clips onto the stage. Forgive me if I missed you explaining this in the beginning.
The way movie export works in Flash is almost like taking a screen capture sequence (although not exactly). But basically, what plays live in real time on the stage is what will export. SO, if you want to export your file as a video you'll have to place those movie clips on the stage yourself, set frame ranges for how long they need to play and then make sure the clips animate on the stage in real time. Personally we use Graphic symbols and NOT movie clips and I don't believe they export well to a video.
