No playback of imported QTmov in .SWF

Hi guys,
Can anyone help me please.
I'm new to Flash CS3 professional version and I can't quite
figure
out playback issues with imported QTmov. Wondering if it is a
compatibiilty issue since the
original .SWF file was Flash 5. After publishing a .SWF file
as either Flash 8 or Flash CS3
everything works fine (actionscripting, animation etc.)
except for the imported QTmov.
Everything also works fine when I play it in the application
however when I test it or publish it, the link to the
QTmov embedded in .SWF takes my to where the QTmov is stored
on the hard drive. (actionscripting is correct)
Any help is appreciated,
Thank you.

Did you ever get this sorted out?

Is this possible - Import Flash swf which then imports an external swf

Hi,
I was wondering if it's possible to (as the title says) to import an swf which itself imports an external swf?
Explanation - I've got an scrollbar created in flash...and to keep it tidy i've created the scroll 'content' as another swf which is imported into the scrollbar swf.
Whenever i publish/render the project the scroll bar appears but the content does not.
Is it possible to do this?
Captivate > imports flash > which imports external swf
Cheers
Craig.

Yes that shouldn't be a problem at all. You probably won't be able to see it working when you preview the project from within Captivate but if you publish it and manually copy/paste the external swf to the publish directory, it should work just fine.

Very poor Playback of imported image sequence

Hello,
I really tried to work around this problem but I'm resigned to see that premiere pro seems to handle very bad the playback of imported sequence of numbered stills.
I began with premiere elements. I imported my footage as image sequence (from 3dsmax), and saw that the playback was poor. It seemed to be playable after background rendering was finished, but BG rendering is soooo long due to an issue with nvidia hardware. So I'm forced to disable BG rendering, but the problem is that the sequence go unplayable again, etc, etc.
I decided to install premiere pro cs5 trial to test, thinking that it will definitively fix the problem,
but... same poor, almost unusable playback with numbered stills.
I have a strong hardware (dual xeon 5650, quadro 4000, 48gb ram), so I think it's not the cause.
I disable my antivirus while using premiere.
Video sequences (avi, mov, etc), play smoothly, but when you work with CG 3D footage, you always export in image sequences, and I want to be able to edit my footages in premiere, as compositing softwares aren't built for the same kind of tasks.
After effects plays images sequences very smoothly, so why not premiere?
I did convert my image sequences to avi or mov uncompressed, but even with no compression, there's a significant loss of quality, and I want to avoid this loss to be able to edit my footage and output my final video based on the best image quality possible.
Thank you for answering

I have a strong hardware (dual xeon 5650, quadro 4000, 48gb ram), so I think it's not the cause.
You did not mention your disk setup.
Playing back numbered image sequences at high resolution is
probably the most disk IO intensive thing you can ask Premiere to do.
Without a dedicated RAID controller and multi-disk setup, you will likely be
forced to timeline preview render all your image sequences for real time playback.
After effects plays images sequences very smoothly, so why not premiere?
AE will not play image sequences in real time until you render a RAM preview.
I did convert my image sequences to avi or mov uncompressed, but even with no compression, there's a significant loss of quality...
There will be no loss of quality if you use a lossless codec for your
digital intermediate file (i.e. Lagarith or UT), and these uncompressed files
will play smoothly in Premiere without needing to render timeline previews.

New computer, download premiere and there is no playback after importing files. Any ideas what's happening?

New computer, download premiere and there is no playback after importing files. Any ideas what's happening?

'JohnTSmith' Thanks for the links. I'll be sure to add more details for future requests!
The computer is an iMac late 2013
Processor 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M 1024 MB
The video file was a .mov file from a Canon 7D. Essentially I downloaded Adobe Premiere CC 2014, downloaded the update because I tried to open up an older project and then imported one movie file.
Playback from all windows didn't work. But after I tried to change settings in the preferences as 'RoninEdits' suggested but I ended up just searching around and didn't change anything. I stepped away for a second to check on my cookies in the oven and when I came back press play and the video now works. Any idea what happen?
I'm not sure what happen but I'll continue monitoring this issue. I'll touch base if I run into the problem again.
Thanks for the help everyone.

Importing & controlling external .swf in Captivate 5

Hi,
I have a main file built in Captivate 5. This file has static slides with text and graphics, in one slide, I have to insert a demo which is smaller in dimension.
So I have recorded this demo as a separate Captivate file and published as .swf.
I have then imported this demo .swf in the main Captivate file as Insert > Animation.
But I am not able to control this demo(Play/Pause, Slider) by the main Captivate control bar.
Please help me regarding this.
Regards,
Sachin

Hi,
Please publish the demo as FLV/F4V instead of swf.
Insert the FLV into the main Captivate movie as FLV object - Insert FLV or F4V file.
In the Properties panel for the FLV, Select
Skin - None
Timing -> Rest of slide. Uncheck "Pause slide till end of video" option.
Check "Synchronize with Project option".
Preview the movie.
Now it is possible to control the Play/Pause of the embedded FLV from the main Captivate movie timeline.
Do let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Sushma

No audio on playback of imported mpg2 video clip while editing

I was assisted yesterday by your technical support team to install the photoshop elements 12 & premiere elements 12 which I purchased e few minutes prior.
while trying to work with the premiere elements 12, I realised that I have no audio on playback of imported mpg2 video clip while editing.
How can I solve this audio setting problem?
<moved from downloading,installing,setting up - kglad>

The Adobe Premiere Elements Forum is not Adobe. Just Premiere Elements users trying to help other Premiere Elements users with their Premiere Elements worksflows. If you need to re-contact Adobe, then please do so via the route that you used previously to contact it.
If you want us to help you here then please continue reading....
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?
Is the lack of audio in the Editing area of the program confined to this one particular MPG2 video clip?
What are the properties of this video file? If you do not know
a. perhaps the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video might give us the information we need for troubleshooting
b. if not, consider getting that information from MediaInfo (Tree View)
MediaInfo - Free download and software reviews - CNET Download.com
Just watch out for carry alongs in the download. The link is for the Windows version. A Mac version is available.
Did you discover the loss of audio for the video file after you had created a narration clip with the program's Narration Tool?
If you have not already, please check the settings under Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware and its ASIO settings (including Input and Output enablement).
Please review, consider, and reply to the above. If you have questions or need clarification on any of the above, please do not hesitate to ask.

How do you get rid of the white background when importing.mov into SWF ?

i'm working with a .mov file importing it into SWF
example here of the object: http://www.highlandmeditation.com/?page_id=2288
is there a way in Flash CS4 where i can remove the white background that surrounds the movie?
its not on the .mov file originally only when i port into SWF
thanks for your help

Well when you are finished drawing a picture when you select it you are able to make the drawings background transparent so when you put it on top of something else the background doesnt show up or you can have the background visible.

Importing xml driven swf file -- is it asking for too much?

I want to import an ActionScript3 / xml driven swf file into Catalist, but it only imports the swf file.
I have placed all the external images and the xml file that calls them into the same folder as the swf and the catalist files, but the playback still does not work. It shows error messages when trying to run. Copying the files to Assets/ Media or Images folders also makes no difference...There is no way in Catalyst to reconnect the xml to the swf either...
Why can't Flash and Catalyst be more friendly? Will there be a better connectivity in the final version?

Hello there,
There are several reasons why this wouldn't work, especially during preview. I'd like to ask you a couple questions and have you try a couple things.
1. What file path are you saving your project to, and what location did you copy the XML and image files to?
2. Did you try publishing your project, and copying your additional files to the published locations?
3. Did you try the same steps as above, only using the deploy-to-web version posted on your server? You would load the application by going to your web browser and typing something like: http://yourserverhere.com/.../deploy-to-web/Main.html.
Let me know if any of those work. Because Catalyst cleans the space where preview files are kept, it would be difficult to have your scenario work during preview. However, you could probably get it to work in a published version.

How to import a flash swf file in premier. Without loosing the animation of the movie symbols.

HEEELLPPP!!
I am doing animations in flash... and then putting them in premier as a SWF file..
but when I do that, the animation does not work properly..
example : If its a star that spins, and goes from left to right.
When I put the swf file in premier.. the star only goes from left to right.. without the spin...
(the spin was an animation made inside the movie symbol of the star)
from the forum of flash they send me here.

from the Premiere Pro Help section about importing SWF files:
" Interactive content and scripted animation are not retained. Animation defined by keyframes in the main, top-level movie is retained."

Rough Playback while importing or using CD drive

I've been very busy importing my CD collection to iTunes lately. After every 5 CDs or so, something happens to my CD drive that affects CD, DVD, and regular play anytime the drive is running. It's rough and scratchy. After using system restore, the playback returns to normal, but i'm getting a little tired of restoring the system every time I want to use the CD drive. This only happens after using iTunes and importing CDs. This is a windows problem, as my laptop has a separate CD/DVD driver that doesn't require a windows startup to use, and playback is just fine when using that application. So, iTunes is doing something to windows that affects the drive playback. It happens on all programs that use the CD drive, and if the drive is in use for anything, all other applications are slow and jumpy. Any ideas out there?
Thanks in advance!

Playback of imported videos

I am having problem with playback of my videos that have been imported into iMovie. They keep freezing a frame while the music keeps playing and the play button is highlighted. If iclick somewhere else on the time line it starts again but then keeps stopping. So, I can't playback my movie smoothly.

Sue,
Thanks for all your help and thanks to Bengt too. I tried the repair using Disk utilities and it didn't help with the iMovie playback. So I call apple care and I was informed that if you make lots of movie on your internal drive it can get defragmented. He said that I should try putting onto an external formatted for Mac OSX. That's what I did and it worked like a dream! Something he also told me was to sign in as a differnt user and copy the movie onto this user desktop. I didn't get to try this but he said that it would be a way to test whether it was the user or the system. Also he recommended refragmenting my internal using something like Disk Warrior. I plan to try this too.
I'm not very technical so I hope I'm explaining this right.Just thought you'd like to hear the follow up.
Thanks again.

Best way to import a Camtasia .SWF File?

I recently created a screen tutorial (as an .swf file) using
Camtasia Studio 5 and would like to import the .swf I created into
a topic of a Flash Web project I'm working on. I tried putting the
.swf on in an .htm but RoboHelp crashes. It doesn't crash with
other .swf files, but on this one it does.
The file plays fine if I double-click on the .swf inside
Windows Explorer, so it seems a problem with RoboHelp.
Now, I can get the video to work inside the project if I copy
the .swf file, the .js file, and the swf's .htm file manually copy
the project folder. If I preveiw it CTRL + W at this point it
works. If I build the project, the .swf and .htm (because I copied
them manually) don't get included into the single source layout
folder. I can probably add them manually there too and then
publish, but there has to be a better way.
Anyone have any success with importing Camtasia .swf files
into RH7 and could maybe give me some pointers so i don't have to
manually copy files everywhere?

Hi Jared
You probably simply need to add all the related files to your
Baggage Files folder.
Note that if your output is a .CHM file, I believe that
Camtasia files have a problem with running inside a .CHM. Even if
you add all the files.
Cheers... Rick

Why does Adobe Premiere CS6 slow playback after importing some audio?

Adobe Premiere CS6.0 v6.0.2
Mac Pro:
1, 4 core - 3.2ghz CPU
16gb ram (4 sticks of 4gb @ 1066 MHz)
1 Tb dive with OS/Apps on
2Tb 7200 RPM media drive
ATI Radeon HD 5770
Sequence:
30Fps
1920x1080
Media:
mostly .MFX files from a Canon XF100 however these clips commonly play nice with Premiere.
Issue:
After importing some audio clips (.wav/.mp3, possibly other extensions) to the timeline on occasion the video playback will become choppy and the audio will slow down 3% creating any voices in the video to become deeper and slows down. Choppy video playback as well. The problem is very annoying but it can be temporarily fixed with a computer restart but it will come back.
Things to note:
Creating a rendered ID (Exporting the movie out to a .mov) the slowed choppy video does not appear in the final movie.
Temp. Solution:
The only way I can fix this problem is by restarting the computer. Simply restarting Adobe Premiere and closing any non-essential applications does not fix the problem.
Any ideas on how to fix this are much apperciated.

Try converting your MP3 to AIFF ,QT or something else Macs like. See if that helps.

Cp5 very slow to import even tiny SWF files

I am using Captivate 5.0.2 on 64-bit Windows 7
All was fine until recently, having not used Cp5 for a few weeks, I fired it up and tried importing a SWF file to a slide (a tiny SWF file that had been imported before with no problem, i.e. AS3, nothing fancy just text and images and a bit of animation). However, this time Captivate decided it's going to take an age to import it (2-3 minutes). Captivate says it's not responding, and the window gets greyed/faded out. Eventually it comes back to life and all is well. But it IS very, very annoying when you have several SWFs to import.
This is not limited to the one SWF file, it's every SWF file or widget (even the ones that come with Cp5) that I try to import (even a simple SWF with nothing in it), so it's definitely not the SWF itself causing this.
Things I have tried:
     - Clearing Captivate cache
     - Deleting preferences in \Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Adobe
     - Uninstalling and re-installing
Nothing has worked.
Several of my colleagues have identical machines and the same version of Captivate and everything is fine for them.

I think I have isolated it to a new Intel HD graphics driver. Unfortunately I don't think I can roll that back to the previous version. Anybody else getting problems with Intel graphics drivers (I've seen some nVidia issues).
EDIT: false alarm, it's nothing to do with the driver.

Can I dynamically import pdf into swf?

Hi All,
I need to be able to dynamically import an external pdf file into my flash .swf and display it within a movie clip on the timeline. --with pagination. Is this possible with Flash CS4?
Thank you for reading. I have been out of the flash game for about a year now. However, a situation has arisen where I need to create a swf movie that loads an external pdf, paginates it, and displays it within a movie clip in the swf. Is this possible or will I be forced to only provide a hyperlink to the pdf?
Thank you so much for your time.
Pete

You should be able to use getURL("pdflocationhere.pdf"); - but I believe thats totally dependent on how the users computer is set up. If they don't have Adobe Reader, it will probably fail, or will attempt to load the pdf within a modern browser that should have the reader plug-in. From my experience, when using getURL() within a projector, it will attempt to open the filetype based on that specific filetype's default opening program which is set in the OS.
