Problem in importing swf movie

I imported an SWF movie into my captivate project. The problem is that when I pause the project then the movie is not paused. How can I solve the problem?

Hi there,
Welcome to Adobe Community.
May I know how have you inserted the movie file? Is that a video?
Also which version of captivate you are using?
Thanks!

CS5.5 Extended - problem with importing audio .mov files

I would like to import an audio file to my PS5.5 Extended. It supports .mov files, so I tried to File->Place a mov file exported from Audition CS5.5. But Photoshop says: "Could not place the document xxx.mov because the movie file could not be opened."
The mov file doesn't open in Windows Media Player either and the message is that the codec is unknown. But it opens without problems in QuickTime, as audio.
I am not sure if this is Audition or Photoshop problem, but the format, or codec which is used should be common to both programs, as they are from the same CS5.5 suite. By the way, I have all settings set to default in Audition. No idea what codec it is using.
My purpose is to import sound, and because PS Ext does not support sound files as such, I found a workaround in the internet to import a mov file. But it does not work for me..

Problem with importing a movie made in Keynote

Hello
I need to import a movie of a slideshow that I made with keynote into iMovie, but when I do so the slideshow movie from keynote is clipped/cropped by the screen in iMovie. How do I fix this?

Burning Keynote presentations in iDVD
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2936
Contributor Old Toad has added the following excellent advice:
To get the keynote presentation into an iDVD slideshow that you can advance slide by slide with a DVD player remove you need to convert each Keynote slide to a jpg file. To to this go to the view all slide window, select all of the slides and type Command+P to start a print job.
While in the print window click on the PDF button at the bottom and select "Save PDF to iPhoto" from the drop down menu. That will create a 200 dpi jpg file of each slide of the presentation.
Next add those slides to a slideshow in iDVD and select slide duration to Manual. Now the finished DVD is played the DVD player remote will control the advance of the slide.
I suggest you follow this workflow to create the DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
As far as having no menu you must have a menu to fall back into once the presentation has finished. If you want just a black screen use one of the old themes like Brushed Metal, Burlap, Sage or Graphite and put a blank, black image file in as the background. You will have to have a button or text button in the menu so choose text and set the text to black if you want a fully blank menu. Be sure to set the highlight color for the text button to black also.
Finally follow Klaus1's method of dragging the slideshow into the autoplay bin while in the Map mode so the slideshow will start automatically when the disk is inserted into the player.

Problem with import SWF file

I am trying to import a SWF file that i have exported from indesign CS5, as i want to create a pdf that has interactive page curl and page turn.
But whenever i reimport the file it is really low resolution.

I agree with Steve, you really should think is it absolutely necessery to try to place your SWF into PDF... you probably will face some problems if you do that.
If you really must, you have to understand some basic rules about working with palced SWF (and videos too) in InDesign.
The pixelated image you see above is not actual SWF. It´s an element called poster. When you place a SWF or video to your layout in InDesign, you may choose a poster for it. It´s kind of placeholder for actual SWF or video and will be shown when actual content is not playing. InDesign uses poster also as an appearance for your SWF/video file while you are working with your layout. InDesign can´t show actual SWF/video content in working area.
You have few options how to define your poster. The most popular one is to grab it from SWF or video file. You can choose any frame to be used as a poster. Except that poster is not that frame itself, it´s a "screenshot" of that frame. Which means of course a risk that it may be pixelated at some point. Resolution you will define in Export SWF window´s Advanced tab effects to posters too. So be careful with lower resolutions if you want to avoid pixelation.
Another, and IMO more professional method is to use good quality image as a poster. You can prepare your poster image in any regular image editing software.

Strange Problem when importing .swf

I have posted the exact files I am having this issue with. If
anyone is up for looking at them.
So I have a Flash3.0 Project
http://www.shieldcogroup.com/flash/mia_effects.fla
It has a masking effect and it looks like this.
http://www.shieldcogroup.com/flash/mia_effects.swf
When I import it to a seperate flash3.0 project.... it keeps
the one part of a grouped symbol and looses the rest of the grouped
symbol... this leaves only 1 thing out of many that remains masked.
Not sure if it matter but the first shape I created is the one that
it is keeping. The volleyball.
If it helps with the incentive it is picture of a hot girl..
So when I go to import
http://www.shieldcogroup.com/flash/mia_effects.swf
Into
http://www.shieldcogroup.com/flash/mia_site.fla
It looses info.... any insight into this? It is very strange
behavior.

I noticed that when you scrub the timeline in the .fla you
get a different result then if you run the movie..... how can that
be?

Importing Director movies into Flash

My short Q, which I suspect is a FAQ though it doesn't appear
on the Director or Flash FAQs on the Macromedia (sorry, Adobe ;-))
site, is: how can you import Director movies (source .dir, or
published .dcr) into a Flash movie?
I had thought this would be simple, that Flash would have an
import filter for Shockwave movies, as after all both products come
from the same stable and you can import .swf movies into Director,
but not so, at least in my copy of Flash 8. Neither can Director
export as a .swf - the only export format that might just work is
.avi but I'm damned if I want to create a big video file just to
reuse a snippet from a Director movie. I did a quick Google search
for DCR->SWF converters but couldn't see anything obvious to
use.
The reason I'm bothered about this is that we've produced a
lot of e-learning material in Director (a good third of our
learning objects at
http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/nursing/sonet/rlos/rlolist.html
use Shockwave movies) and although we've now moved on to Flash,
occasionally we want to be able to reuse snippets from Director
movies in Flash movies. It would be disappointing, to put it
mildly, were we not able to move content between software
applications produced by the same company...
TIA for any answers/suggestions.
Cheers

I feel your pain an don't know what's going to happen with
Director now that Adobe is involved.
You mentioned that you could export as avi, could you copy
the scenes in which you want to use into a new director file,
export that as an avi and conver t that to an flv?
Just a thought.

Imported SWF actionscript not working in _root movie...

Hello.
I will tell you below what I want to accomplish, then I'll
tell you what I have done (that didn't work). I'm hoping that
someone here can tell me where I went wrong, and also how to fix it
and pull off what I'm trying to do. Thanks!...
WHAT I WANT TO DO:
I want to have a Captivate SWF loaded into the bottom half of
a main Flash "shell" SWF, and then when the Captivate SWF is done
playing, a text field on the main "shell" SWF puts the word "DONE!"
in it.
WHAT I HAVE DONE (that didn't work):
I have a Flash SWF that loads a Captivate3 SWF in its bottom
half (that works fine). The top half of the main Flash movie has a
dynamic text field on it called "doneText_txt".
I then made another SWF that is just 10x10px and all that is
on it is ActionScript on the first frame that says:
_root.doneText_txt.text = "DONE!";
I then went on the last slide/frame of my Captivate project
(in Captivate) and did an "Insert-->Animation" to insert that
small 10x10 SWF onto that final slide.
When I load that main "shell" and then the Captivate project
loads at the bottom and finishes playing, nothing is displayed in
the "doneText_txt" text box.
THINGS I NOTICED:
When I imported the SWF into Captivate, it was transparent
(didn't show up). I adjusted the transparency on it (in Captivate)
to both 0% and 100%, and it still didn't show up. I thought that it
may be just because it had nothing on it (just the default white
background), so I went back into Flash and re-exported the 10x10
SWF after filling it with black. I re-imported it into Captivate,
and still it didn't show up. Like, I figured you'd see a black
square on the slide. It was on the timeline, and I could move it
around on the slide, but it was just a clear transparent box. This
made me think that the reason the "DONE!" text wasn't getting
passed was because there was a problem with the SWF even being on
the slide in the first place.
Any ideas???? Or, if there's another way to pull off what I'm
trying to do, that would be fine with me as well. Thanks!!!

But isn't "_root" just the top-most object? So, if I'm
loading the Captivate project from my main Flash SWF, then that
main Flash SWF is the "_root" no matter what, right? Or am I wrong
about that???

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

Problem to import MOV files

Hi,
I have a problem to import mov files from my hard disk (coming from a Casio Exelim ZR100 @ 1920x1080, 30 pic/sec. 44kHz, codec: H.264/AVC ). I tried different project setups - doesn`t work . I get a common failure message. MTS file import works...
System Win 8
Premiere Elements last version, all updates done
Error Message:
nase30

Media import
A Google Translate of your error message says that you are experiencing a generic importer error; consequently, not an editing nor exporting issue.
If you are using the Casio ZR 100, the video involved would be characterized as
1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second (progressive)
Video compression = AVCHD (MPEG4 AVC/H.264)
Audio compression = IMA-ADPCM (stereo)
File Extension = .mov
On the Premiere Elements side you have Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 8 (assumed 64 bit).
I have downloaded one of these files from your camera brand/model from an online source.
Windows 7 64 bit Premiere Elements 11. No importing or other problem with video or audio components of the file.
Windows 8 64 bit Premiere Elements 11. No importing or other problem with video or audio components of the file.
Based on my findings, I have no evidence to make a generalization that there is a problem with this Casio video and Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 64 bit or Windows 8 64 bit.
So that leads us to look for other factors. Top of the list is the version of QuickTime that you have installed on your computer. (As John T. Smith has already asked and is awaiting a reply on that. If you have the latest version of QuickTime installed, then I would uninstall it and then reinstall it.
What type of problem are you report
"it worked before but not now"
or
"it never worked before"
What might be interesting to look at. If you rename just the file extension of your Casio AVCHD.mov from .mov to .mts, .m2t, or .m2ts can you then import the problem file?
We will be watching for your results.
Thank you.

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?

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.

Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past yet says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. re-recorded 3 times and still not accepting HELP

Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past doing this. After 3 attempts recording the hour long video and trying to upload it to iMovie, it says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. What could the reason be?

After much research and troubleshooting, GoToMeeting replied with the final answer: We do not support the uploading of recordings to editing software. If you are having issues uploading a recording, unfortunately, we do not have tools or steps to resolve this. It is not a supported feature. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
The no longer plan to support editing of recordings made with their software. So, we are planning to find a new meeting provider.

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.

SWF movie not loading properly.

I decided to use a loader method for a flash project. When I load swf files from a folder on my computer into my main movie, it loads just fine. However, when I try to load the same exact swf files from a remote server, the script fails on me giving me an error like this:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Com@2f949bc9 to Com.
. I had imagined that this was due to security domains, so I had tried something like this:
ldd = new Loader();
             var ret:URLRequest = new URLRequest(""path"Object.swf");
             var lddContent:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
             lddContent.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
             lddContent.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
             ldd.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandling);
             ldd.load(ret, lddContent);
             Object.addChild(ldd);
All this does is give me this:
SecurityError: Error #2142: Security sandbox violation: local SWF files cannot use the LoaderContext.securityDomain property. file:
-although everywhere states it should work.
I even have makeshift class files for those SWF's on the server with   Security.allowDomain(["*"]);
in their constructors, and still nothing.
What in the world am I missing?

I'm gonna spell this out sweet and golden, because with painstaking effort, I solved this problem.
1. When importing swf's that you've made from a remote site, and those SWF classes use custom classes, specific calls do not work:
For example:
var = classname(event.target(whatever you load)) // a cast like this won't work
method(var:className) nor will this work....
Instead:
Simply use: var = (event.target etc);
and
method(var:Object)
2. Furthermore, if you're testing files on a remote website in your flash API on your computer, please keep in mind that even if you update, change, or delete files on the remote server, flash has a recent history record or those files, much like a browser. Flash will not realize that you've changed those files until you've closed it down and opened it again.
3. Using remote files in the flash API, SecurityDomains etc are unnecessary. But when using flash player, you must use one of the several methods for Security Sandboxes.
I used:
Security.allowDomain(["*"]);
Thanks to everybody who attempted to help, and I hope this helps others as well.
and with that....I'm onto my next project.
See you guys in a couple of weeks!
