Playing website videos requiring flash media player.
Websites such as cnn.com and foxnews.com as well as many others offer video clips for viewing, but they require use of a flash media player. Is it possible to play such clips on an IPhone and, if so, how?
No. iPhone does not support Flash.

Can't watch video and play games that require flash player
I'm using windows7 family premium version
internet explorer 10 last version 10.0.5
exploitation system 64 bytes
flash player verson 11..700.202 the latest one
So as i say can't watch video and play games that require flash player, they keep asking me to install flashplayer... i did everything i read in the forums, unistall it, clean the memory, reinstall it, disabe active x etc... but still have the problem.
More specific about my problem is that: let's say that i'm trying to look at you tutorial video under thi forum Re: How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player? i'm just seeing a black screen. So I'm able to guess where is the play button so when i push on that place, i can hear the sound of that video. Second step guessing where is the enlarge button, and when the screen is enlarged, magic i can see and hear the video.... So you figure that it's impossible to use my computer like that and guess right all the time, so....
Second fact, it seems that bug happened after an update (windows or explorer) and i even talk with a microsott tech who was not able to resolve it... But if i'm undoning the update and go back to a prior image, i have no problems with flash player anymore... it' been moths that i'm delaying my updates cause i cannot find any solutions.... So Please please please, help me .... don't know what's the problem is and i'm not a pro, don't know what to do. (Excuse my english it's my second language)
Thank youThe first thing I'd try is updating your video driver.
Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
If you still have problems and since you're using Windows 7 x64, please check to see if you have the following Windows update installed:
KB2670838 – Platform Update for Windows 7 x64
If so, please uninstall it and try Flash Player out again. -

Want to play website videos on my Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone
How do you play website video on Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone? Device doesn't support flash player, what options are available? Help me please! Thanks
Possibly FlashPlayer does not provide support for your phones Android Operating System.
Adobe's Flash Player does not fully support all systems. It is withdrawing support on Unix and only provides basic security updates and will cease all support soon. It has already ceased support on newe versions of Android.
Here's a 2012 News article onthe subject http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19267140
There are other methods or streaming video and other ways of playing it.
(Firefox is even experimenting with playing flash player content natively)
If you have problems and wish to give an example please use a suitable link. (Mods or Admins note original link only remmed out not deleted so is visible to you usingthe edit option) -
Can you add actions to the Flash Media Player?
I have 2 wmv files. One is the audio and one is the video. I
don't own any software that combines both formats maintaining
perfect video quality. If I import the video wmv file into Flash
(converting it first with the Flash video encoder) is there any way
I can create an action that plays and pauses a seperate audio track
in the project file (when hitting the button in the Flash media
player). ??
Thankslook into the Sound class.

I need a Flash Media player....
Hey folks, how you doing....
I'm working on a project and I'm in need of a flash media
player, but not just any kind....
I've work with various mp3 as well as FLV video players, and
have had much success using them, but for this project I want to
add something special. It needs to be a bit of a all in one
unit....
The best example I could find of the kind of thing I'm
looking for was on the official John Mayer Site. (
http://www.johnmayer.com )
As you can see I would like the player to be able to play
back Video as well as audio (with jpeg background), have a active
play list and of course have the standard controls: Play, stop,
volume, next etc.... I would assume that the data will be fed from
an XML file as most players do.
If there's anyone out there that can help me with a easy
solution to implement this, or know whether I could purchase one
(commercially or private), please let me know. I would appreciate
it very much.
Thanks in advance.
JohnnyHi Johnny,
You can create your own FLV player and add the mp3
functionality into this
example.
http://www.flashjester.com/index.php?section=faq_search&search=flv#385
p.s it resizes at runtime which normal flash files you cannot
do.
Hope you find this useful. Its a good start.

Opening a video in Windows Media Player
How do you open a video in Windows Media Player?
The video I'm trying to open in Windows Media Player is an
avi file.
I noticed that in the Authorware 7 book, it says to simply
add a
wmp after "avi". For ex: myvideo.avi.wmp
It then says to place or import that file onto Authorware
(the flowline).
However when I play it to view, it does not open in Windows
Media
Player. Can someone help me with this problem?
Thank you.Yes it did. Thanx Erik. Appreciate it.

Do NOT use the video icon. As has been stated here a few
times, that is
ONLY for playing the movie INside Authorware.
If you want to play a movie OUTside Authorware, you use the
JumpOUTReturn function, NOT the JumpFILEReturn function.
Your folder setup is good.
So with that folder setup, assuming 'myvideo.avi' is in the
same folder
as your Authorware file, just do:
JumpOutReturn("", FileLocation^"myvideo.avi")
That work for you?

How Access a Third Party Flash Media Player
Hello eveyone,
I was wondering if there is any way that I can know some how
what buttons "Play, Pause, FF, etc. " has been clicked a third
party Flash Media Player?
Thank you and have a great day.
KhoramdinThanks for the suggestions it appears I was doing more or less the right things but miss reading the error message:
Cannot access keyword.classes.thirdPartyClass
bad class file C:\java\keyword\classes\thirdPartyClass
class file contains wrong class: thirdPartyClass
please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectroy of the classpath.
While looking I have found that the classes do not contian src folders of Javadoc so I will go see if the third party can supply a Jar file or similar.
Thanks -
Flash media player in apex.
I need help finding more informaiton on using flash media player in apex applications.
I have some audio files that we need to save in a database and be able to playback from the application. We can't have the information download or save to users machines before playing.
Thank you in advance for any help.Hi,
If you're playing the audio file by using a Flash component then the user won't be directly downloading the file themselves, it will be the 'responsibility' of the flash component to set its 'source' to point at the audio file in question.
If you're asking how do you then prevent someone from directly downloading the audio file, then that's actually far more difficult to achieve so it depends how 'secure' you want to be. I'd need more details really on your particular situation to be able to advise anything more. -
QuickTime .mov plays upside-down in Windows Media Player
I know the cause of this: If you record using an iPhone with the volume buttons pointed at the ceiling, the resulting video plays upside-down in Windows Media Player. QuickTime is smart enough to correct and rotate automatically. Not so WMP. I have several clips that were recorded with the volume buttons pointed up. If I use QuickTime Player to rotate the clips, then they are correct when viewed in WMP, but upside-down in QuickTime Player!
Is there any way to fix these clips so they are right-side up in both worlds? Or is there no choice but to re-record everything with iPhone's volume buttons pointed at the floor?I know the cause of this: If you record using an iPhone with the volume buttons pointed at the ceiling, the resulting video plays upside-down in Windows Media Player.

If I use QuickTime Player to rotate the clips, then they are correct when viewed in WMP, but upside-down in QuickTime Player!
Your assumptions are only partially correct. When you record the clip on your iPhone, the clip is recorded just as you see it in the WMP—i.e., upside down. What the iPhone does is records an addition file value that tells Apple media players which edge to display as the "top" during playback. Since third-party media players ignore this value, they display the clip in its original orientation which, in your case is upside down. When you flip the video orientation using QT 7 Pro, you're telling QT media players to play the file with an "upside down" orientation. By exporting the "flipped" orientation, you are, in fact, re-encoding the original "upside down" to a "right-side up" display but simultaneously telling all Apple media players to play the file upside down.
Is there any way to fix these clips so they are right-side up in both worlds? Or is there no choice but to re-record everything with iPhone's volume buttons pointed at the floor?
Actually, you can do either. That is, you can either "fix" the original recordings or re-record the the clips in a manner that avoids this problem. To "fix" your original files, simple open the files in an Apple media player (like QT 7 Pro) and export the files. The player will note the current "top" orientation and re-encode the content using the current display orientation for both QT and third-party players. -
How to download mozilla fire fox and adobe flash media player
Hi I am so lost i cant seem to download all the stuff i need to set up my notebook (iBook G4) i just need to find out how i can update my mac os x 10.4 to a later version also since mine is obsolete it wont let me download firefox or adobe flash media player. Im not good with computers so i may need instructions to be easy to understand.
Hello,
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/
Flash is a nightmare, but my notes on that...
Look for this for the Standalone player "Download the Macintosh Flash Player 10 Projector content debugger (ZIP, 5.95 MB)"
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!
Or I put up the smaller ones here...

The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

Might be later ones around also... saw 11.3 I think.
(If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work. -
Why won't Quicktime 7.4.1 play .wmv files when Windows Media Player will?
I am running OS 10.4.11 on a Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 2002. When I try to play .wmv files, the following message appears: "The movie could not be opened. The file is not a movie file." However, I can play such files using Windows Media Player. I have installed Quicktime 7.4.1. That hasn't helped.
Thanks for the suggestions, but I already had Flip4Mac installed. However, I re-installed it, but I get the same disappointing message when I try to open .wmv files from Flip4Mac's "Quicktime Player." Perian doesn't work either. At http://lifehacker.com/software/quicktime/download-of-the-day-perian-mac-204423.p hp I read the following: Perian is a freeware plug-in designed to enable the playback of almost every popular video codec in Quicktime.
In fact, pretty much the only major codec not supported by Perian is Windows Media Video files (WMV), but previously-mentioned Flip4Mac should take care of your WMV needs.
I'd appreciate additional comments and suggestions. -
Aggregated Adobe Captivate Video in Flash Media Server
Hey,
Has anyone attempted to implement a captivate video into Flash Media Server?
I specifically need to know if an aggregated Captivate video will work in Flash Streaming Server. The reason I am not sure that it will is because there are multiple .swf files that an Aggregated video must communicate with and I wonder if that will cause any issues.
Please let me know if you've run into any problems, if this works, or if you have any other information.
Thanks!So an Aggregated Captivate Video is basically a compilation of several other Captivate Videos. To see what I mean, open up Captivate
go to File --> New Project-->Aggregator Project.
Choose the .swf files of published projects that you want to run together as a single video (aggregated .swf).
Then, publish the Aggregator Video and you will generate a .swf file that plays all the ones you selected previously.
So basically I am worried that Flash Media Server won't work because the main video file (the aggregated .swf) uses the component .swf files to play.
Any thoughts? -
Is there a program that converts Quicktime video files into Media Player?
Is there a program that converts Quicktime video files into Media Player video files?
Windows XPWindows Media Player on a PC plays avi and mpg in addition to the WMV and ASF files so you can either use a Windows program that generates those files from .mov format or you can use QT Pro to convert the .mov to uncompressed avi and then use Windows Media Encoder to make WMV files. Although it may be out there no one here has mentioned a PC program that converts directly from .mov format to WMV. There is a program for Mac OS that does it and I believe that company is working on a version for Intel Macs so it wouldn't be much of a stretch for them to port it to Windows.
