there is a way to play the game without having to do it through a
browser and with internet connection since I'll be losing my
connection soon. Help me out. =(

this is easy, I just download a

OSX 10.5.2 and AR8.1.2 playing swf files

After applying the latest Apple updates to OSX 10.5.2 I find that I can no longer play
swf files from within a PDF file. I'm using AR8.1.2 with FP9,0,115,0 . Consider
the example:
http://www.amrita-cfd.org/4adobe/swf/swf.pdf
It contains an /Annot "Click to activate SWF!" that is supposed
to play the swf, but when I click it: a progress bar "buffering" appears
in the bottom right corner of the screen and then hangs. The swf file
is included as an attachment, shock-tube.swf, which can be
opened in an external viewer and so I don't think the swf file
is the problem.
I have the same problem with the PDF available at:
http://acrobat.timhuff.net/?p=92
where the swf is embedded using Acrobat,
rather than my homebrew approach.
I would very grateful if anyone could shed light
on this problem.
Thanks,
James Quirk

James,
I am seeing what you are seeing even on pdfs with swfs that I created
that previously worked. I guess we will need to file a bug report.

Flash CS6 cant open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?

Flash CS6 can't open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
I'm just trying to preview an swf file in flash like I have with all previous versions.

What if my SWF loads external content from an online server?
Not only does the current flash player prohibit such activity, it doesn't even pop open an error anymore saying there was an error connecting to an online source.
Normally, I would simply drag the SWF into Flash and all connections would go through. I could see traces, errors, and experience no issues.
Now I can't even do that. So what then? You have crippled a fundamental use of the program, but THANK GOD we have that deco brush that nobody asked for.
And for the record, the nature of my work benefits from not necessarily allowing the Flash Player to connect to online content. The error it pops up? That's simply another method of error checking that I require. Updating the Flash Player options is not an option.
Why would you even remove this key feature from Flash anyways? It's been there for years ... has the ratio of people importing SWFs (a rather useless gesture in an increasing OOP world) really outweighed the people using Flash as a testing environment that much?

How to play swf files in quicktime

I have recently upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard on my MBP. Before I could play swf files (with no associated html files) in Quicktime okay, but in Snow Leopard you cannot select the swf to play. Is there a plug in that I now need to play this?

Perian is definitely not the route. Frrom http://perian.org :
File formats: AVI, DIVX, FLV, MKV, GVI, VP6, and VFW
SWF is a special container made by Adobe Director and can be played back with streaming software, such as a Web page that has the Adobe Shockwave plugin. Open an SWF file in Safari or other browser after installing the latest Shockwave Player, free from Adobe. Some other software that is designed for streaming playback can play SWF media, but not a typical video player like QuickTime Player.
The contents of an SWF container might include an FLV video file or bitmap images either alone or with other data. Shockwave Player has 3D graphics and interaction options (can capture video, sound, mouse movements etc. from your system by default and send them to a remote server if you don't turn off these permissions).

HT5271 Downloaded latest Apple updates that informed me old versions of Adobe Flash Player were disabled and advised me to go to Adobe and down load latest version of Flash Player. Did that, but Flash Player won't play swf files, which it did before.

Downloaded latest Safari update that informed me that older versions of Adobe Flash Player were being disabled and then advised me to go to Adobe and down load latest version of Flash Player.

Hi,
I'm brand new to programing, so my knowledge is limited. But
I'm having a
similar problem where my swf appears but sits on frame 1. I
have a
preloader
set up on fr2. But it just gets stuck there (fr1). I know the
plugin is
installed but not sure why it won't display my movie. I know
it's
happeneing
only with IE and XP and XPpro. Any ideas?
>>
>>
Sorry, I since realized that it's not getting stuck on fr1.
It's just
displaying the bg color in the html page while it's waiting
for the swf to
load. But the swf never loads. It just sits there. I've tried
using
different embed tags, etc. But no-go.
Here's the first example-

cellpadding="0"
cellspacing="0">

Can CDHtmlDialog play swf with audio?
If not, any suggestion on how to implement playing swf file with audio?
Many thanks in davance.

Hi PingHu,
How do you play the swf file in a html. I tried play a swf file with audio in my CDHtmlDialog class. I just use this:
Html code Play the SWF file.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<body>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="200" height="100">
<param name="movie" value="filename.swf">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<embed src="D:\html directory\swf filename.swf" width="400" height="500" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
</object>
</body>
</html>
Then my sample is able to play a SWF file with audio. Hope this helps some.

Play swf file from sound clips

Hi,
I understand this is quite old topic but the question is actual for a lot of developers.
The problem is that Flash ActiveX doesn't contain a method that plays movie from any source except file path or URL.
So there are two approaches are possible:
1. Emulate file by creating a fake file that provides data from your array. You may BoxedApp SDK for that, look here: BoxedApp SDK Features
2. Use special .net component that provides this feature: http://f-in-box.com/dotnet/
Hope this helps.

Don't play SWF files in Advanced Account. In administrator account OK.

Hi from Spain!
I have a serious problem... xDDD
I have a PC with 3 accounts in Windows XP: administrator, advanced user and guest user. I have too, two internet browsers (internet explorer and Mozilla Firefox). In administrator account, flash player and shockwave runs perfectly in both browsers, BUT in the other two accounts, I can't play SWF files in Internet Explorer. In mozilla it runs perfectly too.
I have reviewed the internet settings of Security (custom level -- ActiveX settings) and they're exactly as administrator.
I have installed flash and shockwave again. I have unistalled and installed later. I have installed from advanced account AS administrator and the problem persists...
I don't know what to try next...
some many ideas?? thanks a lot!!!!

Maybe you need to allow 3rd-party content at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l
Also try to disable Hardware Acceleration under Flash Player Settings.

Playing SWF files in FLV Player

Hi,
               I would like to know whether swf files can play in an FLV Player or not. If not possible, is there any option for developing an independent swf player. If so, please tell me the technique that can be used to develop swf player.
Regards,
          Sreelash.

Thank for your reply friend. I understood what u said. Actually the requirement for the client is to stream swf file as streaming flv file. So I think, in the server side we have to use converter. I meant, if the client put the swf files in the server, the server side program calls the converter before streaming to the client side.
The functionality what I meant is following:
1) The client request for an swf file.
2) In the server side, it is placed as swf files.
3) Then, programmatically the server side code invokes the converter and convert the swf file to flv file before          streaming.
4) This is what I meant the use of converter.
I hope you understood what I meant. Can I have your mail id please. Because in forum not everyone reply for the doubts. Also I am the only action script programmer in my company and I have only 5 months experience. My mail id is [email protected]
Thanks and Regards,
              Sreelash.S.

How to play swf file in flex builder3?

Hi!!!!!! I have made a video player in Flex project ......In source of video display I have added the path of my swf file which is as follows:
<mx:VideoDisplay id="player" source="C:\Documents and Settings\sachin\Desktop\absolute-values.swf"
maintainAspectRatio="true"
width="450" height="300" autoPlay="false"
playheadUpdate="videoDisplay_playheadUpdate(event) ;"/>
But when I am clicking on Play button ,I am getting following error:
Error: 1000: Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server.
at mx.controls.videoClasses::VideoPlayer/play()[C:\autobuild\3.2.0\frameworks\projects\frame work\s rc\mx\controls\videoClasses\VideoPlayer.as:1327]
at mx.controls::VideoDisplay/play()[C:\autobuild\3.2.0\frameworks\projects\framework\s rc\mx\controls\VideoDisplay.as:1464]
at basicvideoplayer/___basicvideoplayer_Button1_click()[C:\Documents and Settings\sachin\video player\src\basicvideoplayer.mxml:44]
Can anyone help me in removing this error?Kindly give me a code to Play,Pause and stop my swf file.

GRag and Mesh are correct. You cannot use Flex to access a file on a user's hard drive, which is where your path is pointing.
Instead, create a folder within your Flex project, under the "src" folder (example: src/assets/videos), and put the SWF there. Change the path in your code to point to the new location, like "assets/videos/myVideoFile.swf". Note that you don't refer to the src folder; it is the "root" of your application, and when you deploy all your files to your web server, you will be copying the folders you created to the root folder of your web server. So, all the paths will remain consistent. Flex will attempt to find "assets/videos/myVideoFile.swf", starting from the "root", or location, of the application itself.

Play swf file then go to URL

I have an animated logo in a swf file that I want to play
when the page loads and then I want the browser to be redirected to
another page. I have no idea how to do this, but I know it has
something to do with scripts. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thank you!

use simply getURL("pagetogo") inside your swf.
