Problem Importing Flash Movie

I exported a animation I made in flash CS3 to quicktime but for some reason when I import it to Motion, it only imports about half the clip and then it just cuts off. I also cannot change the duration of the clip in motion.

OK, open it up in QT Player and do the get info and see what FPS it says the movie is at. I'm guessing it will say less than 30 FPS, but let us know.
I had this bug where QT movies created in Compressor 3 brought back into Motion would do this same thing and the QT Player told me that those movies had FPS of 19 or 12, etc, and not the 29.97 they should have had.
If you are able to export it out as Animation codec 100% quality from Flash, you should be able to now take it directly into FCP and then export it as a QT movie from FCP. Don't send it to Motion from FCP, export it out of FCP as a QT movie with Animation codec 100%. After that, check to see what the FPS is. Hopefully, FCP will export it out properly and you should be able to then import it into Motion.
What I'm trying to do is get another application to take that QT movie and export it out to see if it can fix the movie.

Having problems importing my .mov file.

I am having problems importing several .mov files into iMovie. I also can't import .wmv files and I have been utterly confused. I know I have to convert the files but I don't want to pay for a program because I will only be converting 4 files. Please help!

What is Mpeg Streamclip
It is a free conversion application that accesses the QT structure and all installed QT components without having to pay the $30 for QT Pro or purchasing GarageBand. It's "engine" is MPEG-based, so it can do some things that QT Pro cannot do ( e.g., retaining audio content when converting multiplexed compression formats). On the other hand, it cannot perform layer operations like QT Pro can so these applications are somewhat complementary.
and is there anyway you can send me a link to download this program please?

Problems inserting flash movie into webpage

I am trying to insert 2 different flash movies on one webpage
One is a banner made in flash cs4 that works fine.
The other is a movie that I encoded with flash cs4 from a m4v file. When i test this file using the flash player on my computer everything works fine.
When i try to play on the webpage it shows there is flash object in dreamweaver but is blank in webbrowser.(right clicking shows there is flash there but nothing loads)
I have managed to get the movie working on a completly blank html file except that there are no controls (controls work fine in the flash player on computer)
As far as I can deduce it's not the html file because one swf file works ok
It's not how i'm inserting it onto the page because dreamweaver is doing it for me(and including the nessecary javascript etc)
It's not the movie because that works in the flash player on it's own.
So i'm stumped
any ideas guys?
(if it's any help the webpage it's on is www.csdrummer.co.uk , click on top right image on sidebar, has play button, under navigation)
Thanks
Jamie

I'm sorry I missunderstood the post from earlier. If I add the flv file in dreamweaver and upload the corresponding swf all works well but the flv file is 45mb which is a bit large for a 3 min video.
What i would like to do is turn this into a swf file. But this is where the problem is happening. THe swf when i export from flash wont work, comes up in the browser as doesn't load

Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 problems importing 12fps movies

I open an Image Sequence in QuickTime Pro 7 and save it as a movie at 12 fps.
I import that movie into Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 in a sequence with timebase of 24fps.
Problem : the first frame of the movie appears only on 1 frame instead of 2, and the last frame appears on 3 frames instead of 2.
Anyone else seeing this problem?
My work around is to make a 1 frame Freeze Frame of the first frame and add it at the head of the movie and then delete the third copy of the final frame. It's a tiresome work around though because I'm making animated films and have hundreds of these clips to bring in to Final Cut.

Sharon, very sorry, I apparently have mislead you. Still sequences I do in Motion. There may be other ways of grabbing still sequences. The exported movie relies on frame rate of the composition.
After Effects does it, too.
after effects help entry: Change the frame rate of a sequence
When you import a sequence of still images, it assumes the frame rate specified by the Sequence Footage preference in the Import category. The default rate is 30 frames per second (fps). You can change the frame rate after importing by reinterpreting the footage item:
Select the sequence in the Project panel, choose File > Interpret Footage > Main, and then enter a new value for Assume This Frame Rate.

Import Flash Movies

About 18 months ago I started webcasting on services like Ustream.tv. I recorded an online flash movie and downloaded them to edit.
in 2009 I did about 200 hours like that and never really learned a good way to get flash converted to go into FCP. Best was Quicktime 7 with Perian, to H264. Each was a struggle and would have mild to severe audio sync problems, even working in 15 fps, which was the flash movie frame rate.
Then I got the 8 core machine and had enough processor to make a desktop Quicktime 7 recording, which still wasn't all that compatible with FCP. Then I would use the on-line flash movie only as a failsafe backup.
This morning (a really good session) and my Quicktime7 failed. I am back in the flash movie soup.
Can anyone give some guidance on compressing an flv for FCP?
Wow, would this be great to solve. Someone in this world must edit flash movies?
Thanks
Richard Miller

I have also taken Youtubes (downloaded with ImToo) and I have used Quicktime-7 with Perian to convert them.
Can it be that flash files can have different parameters, that aren't always friendly to conversion. The .flv that I point to above Plays well (in sync) on Blip.tv, but when downloaded both QT-7 and Mpeg=Streamclip make a hash out of it. I uploaded it also on my website, if anyone has some time to help me figure this one out.
http://nevernothere.com/images/Unmani.flv
This should download easily and fast.
It is 14.93 frames per second.
And thanks

I'm having problems importing a movie from my Panasonic Lumix DCM-ZS1 to iMovie

Hi, I'm new to mac and I have a Panasonic Lumix DCM-ZS1.
When I import my movies to iPhoto, the clips play perfectly, but when I try to open them with iMovie, they look very dark. The only solution I've found so far is to open them with Quicktime and export the video as m4v it can be opened in iMovie without a problem. I think it might have to do with a codec or something like that.
Here's a video of the problem.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juYmsH7nXAw
Thanks in advance for your answers.

You don't need the Clip Browser...just get the Log and Transfer plugin and use FCP to import. I have a workflow here, with links to the software you need:
Tapeless Workflow for FCP 7 Tutorial
If you use the CLip Browser, you need to use IT to convert the footage to Quicktime, then bring the QT files into FCP.

Problem Viewing Flash Movies in Windows 8.1 Internet Explorer 11

I am running a fully patched/updated copy of Windows 8.1 and Internet Explorer version 11 (on the desktop)
If I try and run the test movie at
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8html I get the following message:
Either Flash Player is disabled or ActiveX Filter is ON.
Please follow trouble shooting steps to play Flash content.
I have checked and double-checked that...
Flash Player is enabled
ActiveX Filtering is turned off
Internet Explorer is running the latest version of Flash Player
The only way I can get this to run at all is to enable'Compatibility Mode' for the web site. Is it the case that Compatibility Mode has to be enabled to view any web site containing Flash content?
Any information would be much appreciated.

Hi,
Do you mean the issue is only occurred on the website you provided? How about other websites?
I can run the test movie with no issue in my test machine, I suspect this issue is caused by browser incompatibility.
As I know, if the issue is caused by a compatibility problem between Internet Explorer and the site you're on. The issue can be fixed by adding the site to your Compatibility View list.
I also would like to suggest you reset Internet Explorer Settings for a test. Also make sure you're not using InPrivate Browsing.
Hope it helps.

Problem importing some .MOV files into Premiere Elements 11

Hello,
I am trying to import film footage into Premiere Elements 11 and am coming across a rather confusing problem. All of the footage is in .mov format and all of it was taken on the same device on the same day with the same settings.
When I try to import the footage, some files import ok, others will not import at all and I get a message saying 'The importer reported a generic error'. It seems very odd to me that some .MOV files are OK and others are not.
This same footage can easily be imported into Premiere Elements 10 and into Windows Movie Maker - which makes me think the issue is with Premiere Elements 11.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Thanks

What model of camcorder is your video coming from and what format and resolution is it? Did you use Premiere Elements to get the video from the camcorder to your computer?
Have you ensured you have the latest version of Quicktime installed on your computer?

Problem importing Flash .swf animation

When I tried to import a Flash CS4 animation into captivate,
i get a message saying something about "actionscript references

Try fixing the FLA doesn't reference root. Also make sure the
Loop option is
not selected in FLA options.

Problem inserting Flash movie into a Dreamweaver page

Hi, I've inserted a .swf movie on this page. It used to work, but doesn't now. In Dreamweaver (CC), when I highlight the movie and click 'Play' in the Property Inspector it works (but doesn't in 'Live' view within DW).
Please be gentle about my code. I'm a hobbyist and started this site about 7 years ago so don't have time to keep up with latest coding trends! Answers re. non-appearance of movie only, please.

Flash really isn't the way to do this anymore, very few people viewing your site with a mobile device are going to be able to see your .swf. Adobe stopped mobile Flash development a few years back and most devices that used to be able to see Flash, no longer ship with a Flash plug-in. Certain devices, like all Apple iOS devices, never had the ability and there is no way to add it to those.
Since it appears when uploaded, I would guess the reason it doesn't work locally likely has something to do with your machine's security settings, especially if Microsoft is involved in the equation somewhere. If it works when uploaded, you're good to go.
HTML5 <video>, CSS3 and jQuery (javascript) are now the default for video and animation for websites since they're compatible with virtually all devices used to browse the internet.

Problem importing multiple MOVs - first clip has no sound...

Hi All,
I have a daily production schedule which requires the editing of 2 or 3 movs on a single timeline in Premier. Weird thing is, when I import, or drag and drop the clips into the project, the first clip is imported without sound - the others import fine.
Weirder still is that if I delete that first clip and then import it again, it pulls in perfectly.
The MOVs are MPEG-4 encoded stereo AAC @ 48kHz.
Any ideas?
Si

Go back one level, so you get the forum and not just this message, and do a SEARCH for MPEG4 or MPEG-4
Premiere does not like to edit that type of file, so you should convert to DV AVI type 2 - or use different software to edit

Problems with Flash movie loading. Please help!

Hi all,
Thanks for the interest in my post...
I created a website for a client in Flash 8 and although the
client and myself can view the site, he has said that some people
have contacted him saying the site won't load.
I've put this down to them not having Flash Player 9
installed on their machine (as they can view other sites I've done
in earlier versions of Flash but not this one) but apparently one
of the people who couldn't see it got the latest version of Flash
and the site still wouldn't load.
The website is at: www.petersnowdon.com and I would be most
grateful if a few of you good people would be able to check it out
to see if you have any viewing problems and if you have any
suggestions as to what might be causing this.
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
All the best,
Mark

Tell those people to:
same damn problem I was probably having...When using IE and
deleting temporary internet files it disables/corrupts/removes
proper function of the adobe flash player....You can reinstall all
night long and it will claim a "successful" installation but, it is
not....YOU MUST FIRST UNINSTALL ADOBE FLASH PLAYER USING THE ONLY
TOOL THAT WILL DO THIS WHICH IS THE FLASH PLAYER UNINSTALLER FROM
THE ADOBE WEBSITE....BE SURE AND SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP BECAUSE
YOU WILL BE USING IT FOREVER.....Once you have used the uninstaller
program you can then successfully and truthfully download the
latest adobe flash player.......WILL SOMEBODY FROM ADOBE FIX
THIS!........
Adobe
Uninstaller at bottom of page
There seems to be an "object" in the temporary files object
folder that is NECESSARY for proper Adobe Flash
function…..see for yourself...tools-internet
options-General-Settings-then click view objects.....here it is:
{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
When you clean out your temporary files this goes with it and
your flash will NOT operate...you can try and reinstall it all
night long...your dead...nothing....you must FIRST GO TO THE ADOBE
UNINSTALLER and run that program to uninstall COMPLETELY the
flash....Having done that, you can now install the flash and this
time it will take......
Let me know the results………..

Problems inserting flash movies with DW CS 3

I just started playing with DW CS3 and I got a feeling I'm
doing something wrong here but when I go place a Flash SWF in a
Dreamweaver HTML page the Flash portion of the page is not showing
up when the site is placed on a sever and looked at over the net,
I've tested it on a couple of PC's now so I'm pretty sure its not
the brower messing up.
Now’s here’s the crazy thing. When I preview the
page from DW CS3 the flash elements are coming up just fine!
They look like there is some kind of auto swfObject attached
to them cause of the removal of the "click here to activate this
control" message.
I've been using Dreamweaver 8 as a work around but this
seems really strange to me any one got any ideas on what’s
going on here?
Thx for the help
John

10.0.1 imports of .mov fail , keynote export to movie

I have run into a problem importing a .mov file in imovie 10.0.1
The files are ok I started imovie 9 and the import fine, but no such luck with 10.0.1
I get the no importable files dialog.
The file is openable in quicktime and I have tried alsorts of conversions but imports still fail
quicktime movie inspector shows
Video H.264, 960 x 540
FPS 0,4
This is a slide show export from keynote and or powerpoint.
help
Just checked a .mov from a canon camera does import ok.

Yes .mov files can use a variety of codecs some of which are not importable into iMovie 10. You will need to convert them into something which is accepted. If you open them in Quicktime 10 you should be able to save them in another format or you can use a third party app like the free Media Converter (http://media-converter.sourceforge.net).

Viewing Flash movies w/ v.9 player crashes

Has anyone had any problem viewing flash movies on a Mac with
the newest v.9 player? All our Mac's with the v.9 flash player take
an extra 11-12 seconds to show up and have a tendency to crash our
browsers. But viewing the exact same movie on the exact same
computer with the v.8 player they work just fine. I've tried it on
all our Mac's running different OS... both Power PC and Intell...
different browsers and I am getting the same result. Flash 9 takes
longer to load in and crashes the browser but 8 works just fine.
However on a PC it works just fine with the v.9 player. I use
Influxis and talked to them today...they can't seem to figure it
out and are having their mac guy look into it for me. Thought I'd
see if anyone else has had this problem. On a side note I like to
listen to BBC Radio 1 and that site crashes on me all the time. But
never happened before I installed the v.9 player. Did a little
digging and found other people having the same problem. They say it
has something to do with the banner ad's/video's being export to
Flash 9.
If anyone has any ideas...please help me out. Below are a
couple of links. The second one is a test Influxis set up as a test
while I was on the phone with them. It uses a simple NetConnection
with no player component. Both work great on all out Mac's with the
v.8 player but not with the v.9.

Here's an experiment I want you to try.
Go to: [User]/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles (hold the "Option" key when clicking "Go" from the Finder menu to access your [User] Library)
Copy the "default" profile folder from there to ANYWHERE other than the Firefox folder (a Flash Drive preferably, so you can remove it)
Trash the "default" profile folder and empty the trash.
Relaunch Firefox.
Go to YouTube and play ANY video there.
If prompted to install Flash Player again do so.
Let us know if that changes anything.
