Problems with exporting flash movie to AVI movie

Hi, I have created a flash movie with motion tweens for my lettering and added external images for my backgrounds and symbols to create a presentation. The presentation works perfect in Flash, but the problem is when I export it to an AVI movie, the lettering is totally gone for each slide and only the images of backgrounds and symbols are working.
I keeping getting an error in the output box everytime I play the movie in flash:
Error opening URL 'http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/swz/crossdomain.xml'
I don't know if this helps.

Not sure you posted this issue to the correct forum. This is the Adobe Connect Forum not the Flash forum. You might get better results in the Flash forum.
I think your conversion tool is doing that. Maybe another one would be better.

Help with multiple flash movies in same website

I'm trying to create a website in dreamweaver. I created the
artwork in fireworks. a slice of it i exported to flash to create
rolling clouds over the background. i also want in the same swf
file a screen for my main content. ( I used a scrollPane component
that works nice. But for each button on my web menu (home,
schedule, ect...), I want to be able to put new content in my
scrollPane. My buttons don't reside in my flash movie. Do I need to
create a new movie for each web page?
I'm not sure how to procede.
Can anybody help?
brad

It seems that when you import an external flash movie into
Captivate 1, the full path is...
"_level0.slide0__image_mc.s0_i9_swf_mc.m_swf_mc"
...this was the start of the solution for my problem so I
thought it best to post in case it helps out anyone else.
BTW - The slide number changes (obviously) and so does the
'i' reference depending on the attributes you have given to your
imported movies.

How do I embed flash movie with detection

Hi - I want to embed a movie below a banner image in a web
page. I want to use flash detection so that the right player is
used. I've got Flash professional 8 so it spits out an HTML page
with the flash detection script written to it. In the body section
of the HTML is a <script> tag with the document.write called
if the detection is succesful. What I've tried to do is put my
banner image in a div above the script tag. This seems to work in
Firefox but gives me a tiny little stretched banner image and a
tiny little stretched flash movie when I try the page in IE7.
I've attached my HTML below. Why is this happening?

I found the answer - I was using dynamic positioning of
elements in a javacript file and was using
document.documentElement.clientHeight to get the clientheight. IE7
no longer recognises this and has started using the standards
compliant document.body.clientHeight.

Layout page with flash movie on top

I want to have the index page for my site open with a flash
movie on top of the rest of the content of the page at a set pixel
distance from the top of the page and centered horizontally in
relation to the browser. I have been able to make this work with an
absolute location using CSS elements in Dreamweaver and the
equivalent of what used to be layers. It all works as long as the
position of the layer is absolute, and your monitor settings are
pretty standard. Otherwise the flash plays on the left:
http://www.iconoclastic.net/metaphordogs/index.html
When I try to make it a relative location, it moves to the
top of the browser. When I try to make it relative to a table, it
displaces the table content rather than playing over it.
Any assistance would be appreciated
Alec

The standard solution is to set wmode="transparent" and <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> in your embed/object html, but that only helps to fix the problem in win/IE. The problem has been there on Adobe's own home page for years. If you're unlucky enough to use a Mac there's no effective solution for this problem.

Flash movies too fast with flash 10?

I have a website with some flash movies. they run at 30 FPS.
i recently installed a new version of flash and now my movies run
too fast. not too much fatser but enough to make a difference to my
audience. is this a feature of flash 10? what can i do to make sure
my viewers dont also have this problem??

Do you hear anything? Check your audio output. If it is set to hdmi, there's nothing to slow down the video and it plays too fast. Set the audio output to speakers and...voila!
This happened to me today. I had plugged in an external mic that used an A/D dongle (usb output) and it switched my audio output from speakers to hdmi somehow. I could download flash movies as .webv and play them at regular speed with VLC, with no sound. I use Linux Mint 17, but I saw other forum posts where this happened on Windows and Ubuntu.

AP with Flash movie displays up or down 8 pixels

I've finally got my website up, with a flash movie (swf) of a
slideshow. It looks incorrect in DW (CS4), the movie is too low,
but displays correctly in Firefox and Safari (mac) - except in
Explorer (on a pc), where it displays too low: exactly like it
shows in DW. The background is a PS work, including a 'frame' to
play the movie within. Problem...

Thanks for any help. I can't find anything in the code doing
this.
Laurence

OK, and Thanks again
//add the listener for each button
nav_button[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menuClick);
addChild(nav_button[i]);
//menuClick Code
function menuClick(e:MouseEvent):void
e.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menuClick);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, resetButton); //removes children from the navGroup movie clip
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, menuOut, false, 0, true); //retracts the drop down list
setButtonIndex(e.target.name);
addLinks(e.target.name); // adds drop down links to the navGroup movie clip
TweenLite.to(navGroup, .4, {y:navGroup.height,onComplete:showMe()}); //shows the drop down link list movie clips
//relate the above line to the target name
lastTarget = e.target.name;
Note: the displacement happens whenever I add a child to the stage, either the navGroup or the mask clip (dmask). The mask clip
is a rectangle with a fill.
Thanks

Opening maximized window from embedded flash movie

Hi!
I need your help!
I have a html file with a flash movie-menu embedded into it. I'd like one of the buttons to open an external html page strictly in a new maximized window. It does not matter if the new window has toolbar or not. I want it to open a new maximized window (not the full screen thing) onclick.
How can I achieve this?
thank you!

use the javascript window.open method to open your popup and set the page dimensions.
you can use getURL or navigateToURL() to execute a javascript function or better use the externalinterface class to call a javascript function in your embedding html file.

Flash movies made in keynote are not working in firefox

I have just finished a 65 page iwebsite at
www.acendedmasterscards.com
it is a card reading with a flash movie - made in
keynote for each card. It looks beautiful in
Safari but in firefox I get a blank white bit
instead of the movie. Help! I would also love
comments on the site! Karen.

I join in the other's congratulations as your site is wonderful. I really enjoy it and I have bookmarked it that I too can post a link to it when I get to an appropriate place in my web building. I will inform you of it.
I really like what you did with flash and I was trying to do something similar using keynote but I was exporting to a podcast instead of flash and it was never working right. I now thanks to you might try to do it in flash.
As far as the other browsers are concerned you might ask the question on the keynote forum as well perhaps one of the experts there will have another idea as to why it does not work. In the mean time keep positive thoughts and perhaps safari will become the new ie since it has been released to windows.
Thanks for sharing

How to deal with transparent Flash ? Does WMODE work ?

I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and i have an ActivX object with a flash movie into.
I have a transparent background in my movie and wants it to work in LabVIEW.
There is the methode wmode included in the object. I set it to "transparent" like in a html webpage but i still get a white background.
Does wmode works in LabVIEW ?
Is there an other solution ?
Thank you

It may be that the OP wants the ActiveX control itself to be transparent, so that possible other LabVIEW controls beneath might show through. And I believe the ActiveX control does not support that in any way. Not even fully shure how that would work, but possibly ActiveX allows that option nowadays, but as said I don't think the LabVIEW container supports that.

How do I tell my flash movie which frames to display depending on the page?

Hi,
I'm creating a php website with a flash movie that
incorporates the navigation. The movie shows an image for each
section and this image doubles as the navigation. The website uses
the same php template throughout the site for each page.
Here's the thing: I would like each page within the site to
display the rollover / active state of the section that the page is
in, rather than the movie playing fully each time the visitors
visits a different page.
The .fla file and .swf can be viewed here:
http://preview.hosts.co.uk/~swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/templates/swinside/img/header.fla
http://preview.hosts.co.uk/~swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/templates/swinside/img/header.swf
So when a visitor is on a page in the hotel section, I want
the flash movie to play frames 201 to 205 and when in the booking
section frames 221 to 225 rather than the whole movie.
Is there any way of doing this?
Thanks,
Konrad

Thanks Gorka,
I looked it up and found this useful summary:
http://probertson.com/articles/2006/12/14/deep-linking-flash-application-states/
However, I'm now trying to figure out how write the flahs
vars so it can see what section / folder the page is in so that the
swf knows to play the same frames for both
swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/pages/hotel/awards.php and
swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/pages/hotel/guest-comments.php. So
basically it doesn't look at the last bit of the url but the first
bit... I would like the flash vars to be dynamic so that when the
client adds a new subpage in one of the sections the swf will still
know which frames to play.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Konrad

Flash movie lagging after publishing

Hello,
I have a short animation in the beginning of my CP-projects, like an intro. When I publish the project and play it either in Flashplayer or via the htm-file, the "intro" flash movie is lagging a lot. It's like it's not fully loaded even though I've played around with the preloader in CP.
When I first created the animation in Flash it was around 3 MB which I then got down to around 250 kb, which I thought would do the trick. It might be a bit better, but it's still a problem.
So the first slide with the flash movie is lagging when starting the published project, the second slide is also lagging a bit, but after a while it gets up to speed, like it has been loaded. If I then go back to the previous slide, the intro slide it's running a lot smoother.
So how can I make sure the project will run as it should when I start it the first time?
Kind regards,
Patrik

No worries, should've figured out you meant the size Anyway, the animation is 273 kb as of now.
I tried to add an all white slide with nothing on it for 25 seconds. It works a bit better, the following slides runs a bit smoother. Still a bit of a hassle to add a slide with no real information on it. Guess I have to be creative.
Kind regards,
Patrik

Spry navigation bar covers flash movie beneath it but not the jpg image, why?

i have a spry navigation bar with a flash movie underneath,
and when i hover over the navbar and the submenu pops down it
covers the flash movie, but it doesn't cover the .jpg image that is
next to the flash movie. how can i fix this? thanks.

thanks for the reply Murray, a responder from the flash forum
gave me the following answer and it worked perfect.>>
The <object> and/or <embed> HTML elements that
reference your Flash content accept a number of optional
parameters. For the <object> element, these parameters are
supplied via nested <param> elements. Simply add the
following new <param>:
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
The <embed> parameters are supplied via attributes. For
the <embed> element, add the following new attribute:
wmode="opaque"
That’s it. Your Flash content is now stackable via
z-index; for example, you may wrap your
<object>/<embed> pair in a <div> and set the
<div>’s z-index as you please.
<div style="position: absolute; z-index=1;">
<object attributes >
<embed attributes />
</object>
</div>
If you’re using Dreamweaver, just press the Parameters
button in the Insert > Media > Flash dialog or in the
Property inspector when selecting existing Flash content. Type
“wmode” (without quotes) in the name/parameter column
and “opaque” (without quotes) in the value column. That
will handle the above HTML for you, even with the new JavaScript
embedding available since the 8.0.2 update.

Flash Movie Presentations in Adobe Connect

We have been working with one of our customers on delivering
an on line sales tool using the Adobe Connect environment. They for
the usual legal reasons wished to use a sales aid they had already
created. This was a flash based CD-rom with various flash movies
initiated by rollovers and buttons.
But there was two problems:
1. The index would not work i.e. the menu page appeared but
the subsequent movies and animations could not be found
2. The click throughs and rollovers would not synchronizes,
i.e. if the presenter moved forward through the presentation the
participants did not.
Both of these obviously make it useless.
After over three weeks of R&D we (David Kwaw , Steve
Grovenor and J ) have developed a bespoke piece of programing,
based on Sync SWF
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobatconnect/articles/basic_syncswf_pt1.html
That solves this issue, we have since refined the coding so
that ONLY the presenter has control of the flash presentation,
making it more like Adobe Presenter just ALOT more flexible and
better looking.
If you would like to know more... just drop us a line.

Everything except for the alpha transparency video is easily doable in Edge.
Rather then trying to shoehorn html5 video with an alpha transparency into Edge (not sure if this is doable), you could potentially use a png sequence or spriteSheet to play back those animations. Though the file size will be very large, and Edge does not have native implementation for png sequences or spriteSheet playback. yet.
John Dunning built a plugin for Fireworks to export a spritesheet as an Edge symbol:
