Preload .f4v FLVPlayBack Choppy problem

Hi ,
I'm new here. My first post !
Just for info , I use Flex to build Action script project.
So I preload some f4v movie, <1,50 mo , 720*405, between 4 and 10 s duration.
No problem for the preload. But when 'bytesloaded=bytestotal' , I play the file, it looks like choppy. The video is not smooth at all.
I try with flash player beta 10.1 , it's better but still choppy.
Anyone get this problem ? I try to play with the buffertime method of F4vPlayBack , it changes nothing.
Samuel. Please Help !

Thanks for your answer. My f4v are no more than 0,5 Mbit/s. But I've made some test yesterday , on different os and browser.
And the winner is : Safari on a mac os 10.4, it's completly smooth !! The other test was made on firefox both xp and macOS, and ie8(xp), it still choppy.
I really don't understand what's happen. Flash is not supposed to display exactly the same thing what ever os or broswer you use ?

FLVplayback Seekbar problem

Hello,
I'm having issues with the seekbar handle for FLVplayback
components. I have separate videos in separate movieclips and when
I click to a new one the seekbar handle gets left from the previous
one. I've noticed other people having the same problem but haven't
found a solution as yet, can anyone help? Is there code to prevent
this and if so would it go into the button, component or AS frame??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
David

That is my plan to use playheadupdate. I have been able to add a mouse click to the seekbar itself and can seek the the correct place in the flv on demand. My problem is that I am unable to display the handle rectangle. I am also unable to add a mouse event to the SeekBarHandle class I have.

FLVplayback component problem

my flash movie contains FLVPlayback component to play videos.
In the begining of the movie( frame 1) I have a simple pre-loader.
When I test my swf on a browser the pre-loader appear only after
few second, not immediately. (my pre-loader start from 40%). I
think the reason is that flash load the FLVPlayback component on
the first frame although my component appears only on the second
frame . Is there any work around this issue?
Thanks

I am having the exact same problem. Thanks for info that this
is caused by movie being the same size as the stage. I am also
working on a solution and will let you know if I find one.

Need Preloader for FLVplayback Component

Hi,
I'm playing external .flv videos using the 'FLVplayback'
component. My client's complaining that they stall and stutter a
bit when they start to stream, and wants to know if I can create a
preloader for them.
Can anyone help or point me in the right direction to create
preloaders for this component? Since the .flv is not on the
timeline, I don't know where to begin. I found some info on this in
the Flash Help files, but it's a little over my head.
Thanks very much

Flash cs5.5 FLVplayback Encoding Problems with Air for Android

Dear All,
I'm trying to play flv in my air application by using FLV playback in flash cs5.5.
I can play flv in the pc but not on the samsung galaxy tab andriod platform.
if anyone out there has tried out FLV playback with either an Air For Android application, where the FLV files are packaged within the app, or either streaming via normal http//:, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

First disable autoplay. It gave errors for me. Try to make the movie play with the play() command.
to embed the movie in your air bundle, just go to publish settings for your flash project. Then in that screen go to the player settings.
In the first GENERAL tab you'll see a the bottom that you can add files to your project
Propably there is allready your .swf and an .xml file in there.
Using the + icon you can add your video.
Make sure that your video is in the same directory as your . FLA file and you can use it as is (by name)
If for example your flashfile is in c:\mytest\mytest.fla and the video in c:\mytest\videos\myvideo.flv , then you will have to load your video as "videos/myvideo.flv" with a FORWARD slash, never use \
Good luck

I realize this maybe a simple fix but i cant find anything in the forums here discribing exactly this issue.
can anyone help
thanx
bobby

Hi,
Going out on a stretch here but did you, by any chance, added external swf or widgets that would have set the values of either Stage.scaleMode or Stage.align. That could explain the effects you are seeing.

Preloader simple? problem.

Hello, I´m having problems with my preloader.
I´ve used this same code for a few projects before
without any problems but now it´s not
working correctly.
The preloading works fine, the problem is with the numbers
(%) shown in my dynamic text box.
It displays up to 12% and then it jumps to the label "Loaded"
which is the actual content, and everything works fine.
Here is the code...
//preloader
this.onEnterFrame = function () {
var amountLoaded:Number = this.getBytesLoaded() /
this.getBytesTotal() * 100;
preloader.text = Math.round(amountLoaded) + "%";
if(amountLoaded == 100) {
this.gotoAndPlay("Loaded");
delete this.onEnterFrame;
thanks, Marcelo.

my files (.fla, .as, and the swf) are located here:

Loading FLVPlayback with still image

A problem I am having is that with multiple .swfs embedded on
a webpage that all play a video, it seems to me that with
progressive download the videos start to automatically download
even though the players are on pause after a call to...
theVideo.source = tileList.selectedItem.data;
theVideo.pause();
where the name of the video is loaded from an .xml file.
Ideally, what I'd like to do is to have the FLVPlayback
component load with a small image, e.g....
theVideo.source = "coape_logo_circle_06.jpg";
...and then load the real flv on the click of a button.
It seems that the theVideo.source has to be fired up in order
to display the video player on the screen.
Is there a way to 'preload' the FLVPlayback thing in this
kind of way?
Many thanks
ROBERT

Does this apply to progressive d/l as well? or does flash see
these as one and the same.
I'm new to this stuff, sorry for being ignorant! I'm assuming
that I could take any appropriately sized bitmap (doesn't have to
be a snapshot from the preview thing) and load that in some way? I
see the preview window says you can snapshot a frame and later load
with code, but I'm damned if I can find code anywhere in the
documentation!

Remove sound in FLVplayback component?

How do you remove the sound from "specifically" from FLVplayback component? Since the sound wont stop playing when I'm on different page(assume that if the person didnt click the pause button and navigate to other pages)....Normally I would add SoundMixer.stopAll(); for every button in my main and loaded swf but this will stop my background music as well....
The flvplayback component is located in another swf file and the code was added on the second frame of the movieclip call "scrollGroup"
import fl.video.FLVPlayback;
import flash.events.Event;
var flvPlayback:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
flvPlayback.fullScreenTakeOver = false;
flvPlayback.autoPlay = false;
flvPlayback.source = "video/Listening_to_Community_Voices.f4v";
flvPlayback.skin = "MinimaFlatCustomColorPlayBackSeekCounterVolMuteFull.swf";
flvPlayback.x = 31;
flvPlayback.y = 123.8;
addChild(flvPlayback);

IOS 4.2.1 update problems on iPhone 3G

I have noticed a few problems with the update. My iPhone is now back to being slow and choppy. My battery drains a lot faster. And when I go to the app store, it will only show some of the pictures of the apps, I have to close it and open it again to make it start showing pictures again. Also, my signal strength on both the cell service and WIFI fluctuate more that it did prior to the update. I have never seen my WIFI signal drop inside my house until I updated to this version of the iOS.
Also, about the slow and choppy problem....prior to iOS 4.2.1, a Genius Bar employee told me to re-setup the phone as new and then sync all my info. back on the phone. It was a pain to deal with reseting all of my setting, however it did help the speed of the phone on iOS 4.1 and I was enjoying my iPhone again, however as soon as I updated to iOS 4.2.1, it was back to being slow and choppy as I noted above.

Bought an iPhone 3GS, so this is no longer an issue.

DW template problems

I'm seriously not sure what to do here. Murray/Ace if you see

I have a template that works seemingly fine in all respects,
uploaded it to temporary site:

(IGNORE graphics at top... they are placeholders until I get
real ones from illustrator)
Rollover images at top work great, as do pop-up menus. All
image paths and hrefs are fine.
Sample child created from this template:

and sidestep the problem, but before I did so, I went in and messed
around more, and created the larger problem which is....
-Rollover images at top and pop-up menus no longer work.

Encore CS6 Flash Export problem

Hey There!
I am having a problem with my encore CS6 flash exports.
The DVD menus are shown the right way in the browser but, when I select a video to be played, the flash player shows me the video controls but no video. The background stays grey. I've tried exporting FLV and F4V and the problem is the same.
It looks like the link in the XML is not good. The videos are in the folder exported by Encore and they play well in VLC. Do you have to edit the XML file to make this work? I guess not...
Maybe reinstalling everything? Because from my perspective, it looks like it is an easy procedure and it should work.
Any help would be appreciated!
My specs:
- Mac Pro late 2013 with Maveriks 10.9.4
- Safari 7.05
- Encore CS6

The Encore structure puts the flv in a "sources" subdirectory under the level with the index.html.
As long as the user has not modified anything, the path should be okay.
Nicolas, confirm that the directory with index.html file also has a subdirectory called "sources," and that that is where the flv/f4v is.
My suspicion for many users with a local, but not web problem, are having a local permissions issue.
One user reported fixing a similar problem by removing odd characters in the filenames. The theory was that the characters were breaking the xml linking.

Preloading a series of images

Hello...
I am attempting to preload a series of images to a mc [mostly
just to get them into web-viewers' cache].
This is the code I am using for the preload bit:
function cigPreLoader() {
var cigImage:Number = 1;
var totalCigImages:Number = numOfCigPics;
var cigImgToLoad:String = "
http://www.fourinchesofego.com/cigs/cig"+cigImage+".jpg";
var cig_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
// Create listener object:
var cigListener:Object = new Object();
cigListener.onLoadComplete = function() {
cigImage++;
imagesLoaded++;
if (cigImage<=totalCigImages) {
cig_mcl.loadClip(cigImgToLoad, cig_mc);
} else {
alarmPreLoader();
cig_mcl.addListener(cigListener);
cig_mcl.loadClip(cigImgToLoad, cig_mc);
function alarmPreLoader() {
var alarmImage:Number = 1;
var totalAlarmImages:Number = numOfAlarmPics;
var alarmImgToLoad:String = "
http://www.fourinchesofego.com/alarms/alarm"+alarmImage+".jpg";
var alarm_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
// Create listener object:
var alarmListener:Object = new Object();
alarmListener.onLoadComplete = function(target_mc:MovieClip,
status:Number):Void {
imagesLoaded++;
alarmImage++;
if (alarmImage<totalAlarmImages) {
alarm_mcl.loadClip(alarmImgToLoad, alarm_mc);
} else {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);
alarm_mcl.addListener(alarmListener);
alarm_mcl.loadClip(alarmImgToLoad, alarm_mc);
cigPreLoader();
[the imagesLoaded++ is talking to a var that moves the
preload graphic along]
The problem is that this works just fine when I run the SWF
locally; it nicely loads each image one after the other and then
moves along to the actual piece. The problem is that when I jump
over the run it online it just burns through without preloading
each image.
Any suggestions??

Encore CS6 Flash Export problem, Grey screens

Hi everyone,
I am having a problem with my encore CS6 flash exports, they are not behaving as expected online (seems to be like a loading issue).
I've tried exporting FLV and F4V and the problem is the same. The same project exported from CS5.5 does not produce this undesirable
problem. It may be important to say that the project was started in CS5.5.
I have a button that links to another menu, and I am using videos as 'transitions'. The videos are dynamic after effects compositions.
When it's online, and you press the button it fills the canvas with a 'grey screen' before starting the video transition. This totally breaks
the experience and feels like an authoring error. It would be important to note, that this screens only appear the first time you see the flash.
Somehow the next time you press it doesnt show it.
I would happily go back to CS5.5 but I started using auto-activate buttons that are only available on CS6 flash exports.
Any ideas what has changed between this versions flash exports?
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks in advance,
Cris

Encore CS6 6.0.2.004, IE9, Win7
Simple project, DVD NTSC, One menu with one button. One timeline. Menu first play, button linked to timeline.
Output flash with flv (and again with f4v - same results), No template, keep with flash swf rather than streaming.
Open index.html locally, must manually enable active content. Menu opens, movie plays. No grey screen.
Copy entire folder to USB, same result; USB plays on a different PC also.
Upload to web site; same result.
Am I doing soething differently from either of you? Are you using templates?
Factors related to flash security (for local and probably USB playback) can be problems. Various server settings can be problems for on line.

Media Encoder CS4 NTSC DV Import Problems

Hi!
I'm trying to import a NTSC DV AVI into ME CS4 so I can encode it into H264/F4V. The problem is that in Export Settings > Source/Output tab the image is black. If I encode, the result is still black. Thank you!

Yes, the points cover the entire sequence. One thing I noticed right now is that when you check the Resize option, the Output appears full of artifacts.
