Problem loading flv over network when accessing swf through html

hi all,
i have website that loads images and videos for my company.
it's an internal thing that's meant to be shown in a network folder
that people can access.
my problem comes when i try to load videos in. on my local
machine, everything works fine, if you launch the swf directly from
the network folder, everything works fine. the problem comes when
you launch the html that the swf is embedded in. my netconnection
is successful, but when i try to load the flv using netStream.play
(using a local path like "videos/myVid.flv") if get a
NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound error.
local paths work fine when loading images etc but not videos
(even when i put the video into the images folder or vice versa).
the only way i can get this working is if i put absolute paths into
the video ( like "\\myServer\flash\videos\myVid.flv")
i'm thinking this is a sandbox problem. when you open the swf
directly, it's running on the network, so it's ok to access network
files, but when you open the html, it's being loaded to your local
computer, and isn't able to do it? both times when i print out the
sandbox type it's "localWithFile", but it just doesn't work in the
browser. but then i don't get why xml loading and image loading
works, but not video. i've also changed the export to
localWithNetworking and tried Security.allowDomain("*") but nothing
worked.
this works fine if the files are uploaded to a webserver,
btw.
i've
put
up a zip file with the relevant files (though you'll have to
stick in your own flv), though unless you have a network handy it's
going to be a bit hard to test it.
any help or points in the right direction would be
appreciated though
thanks

Your files work fine with my FLV and when I try to follow
your instructions. Two days ago we had a situation that was almost
like what you've described, except that the swf would work, the
html work work (when opened directly, like
"file:///Users/colin/Desktop/video%20bug/video_bug.html", but would
not work when opened via http. If that is your real situation then
you may have the same issue we had, which is that our server had
its MIME type set wrong for handling FLVs.

  • Loading .FLVs dynamically into a single .SWF

    Hey guys, so here's my issue. I've got a site that I'm
    working on with a friend of mine who is a software developer. His
    comfort is with .net and asp.net. The site we're doing has a media
    section where the clients want to be able to upload videos in .flv
    format and have these uploaded movies populate a dropdown list.
    Instead of having them upload a .swf of an flv player and the
    actual .flv movie, we would like to have a single .swf that loads
    these .flvs dynamically. So, basically the problem there is that
    the location of the .flv file is usually hardcoded, either through
    actionscript or through the component parameters window inside
    flash itself. So I figure the solution is to have the flv player
    inside the swf call to a variable in the database, and when each
    video is selected in the dropdown, it is set as that variable. Do
    you guys have any tips on that code or any other solutions to my
    problem?

    Yes, you must embed them rather than load them from a url at runtime:

  • My new USB 3.0 external drive isn't accessible over network when plugged into my Time Capsule.

    It is a Seagate Backup Plus 3 TB desktop drive. Every other (USB 2) drive has worked like this, and this one works when plugged into my computer directly. I tried asking Seagate about it, but they said it was an Apple problem if the drive works when plugged directly into my computer. Besides, USB 3.0 is supposed to be backwards compatible, right?
    My Time Capsule software is up to date, but is there some software difference between my 2009 MacBook Pro and my 2008 Time Capsule that allows my computer to recognize USB 3.0 drives but not my Time Capsule? Anyone have an idea about how to fix this?

    Check the documentation on your drive to make sure that it is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to work with the USB port on the Time Capsule.
    Your Mac supports other formats, so it is possible that the Mac can "see" the drive and the Time Capsule cannot if it is not formatted correctly for the Time Capsule.
    If you still cannot "see" the drive, it is likely that you will need to use a powered USB hub for the drive...even if the drive has its own power supply.
    Your Mac has a high powered USB port, while the Time Capsule port is not high powered.

  • Problem loading JPEGs from network drive?

    Hi,
    I'm having a rather frustrating problem with Bridge\Lightroom 2 which I think is due to ACR 4.5, and I'm hoping someone here may be able to offer some advice:
    When opening (in bridge) or importing (in Lightroom) a network share containing JPEG images the majority of the previews\thumbnails are corrupted.
    This screenshot illustrates the problem in bridge (http://www.amirkamal.com/acrbug.jpg). As you can see the thumbnails are corrupt as is the preview, however the magnifier tool on the preview window shows the /true/ image. The irfanview window, in the lower right corner, shows what the image should look like, demonstrating that the JPEG itself is not corrupt.
    If I were to import this directory into Lightroom the same problem is present, although the form of the actual image corruption (or even the number of images corrupted) may be different. It also persists through to the develop module as well, making lightroom completely unusable.
    If I disable the 'Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG and TIFF files' option in Bridge then previews are rendered correctly, which is what leads me to believe that ACR is the problem and not Bridge or Lightroom. This would be an acceptable work around for Bridge, but obviously isn't possible for Lightroom.
    Also, if I copy the JPEGS locally and then import\view them the problem does not occur. The seems only to affect JPEGs: TIFF and Raw (Canon 350d .CR2) files do not show this problem.
    It almost seems as if ACR is trying to process the JPEGs before they have been completely loaded, and thus ends up rendering garbage.
    Has anyone else seen this problem before, or have any idea how to fix it?
    My system specs are below incase they offer any clues,
    thanks

    I have never worked on image files which are located remotely in a network ... but I noticed a higher probability of problems occurring when working with Bridge on external hard disk drives connected via USB 2.0. So I acquired the habit of copying the folder of images I plan to work on to an internal hard disk drive and do the work there. When I'm done then I'll copy the whole folder (or at least the modified files therein) back to where it came from.

  • SSIS fails to load files from network when executed via SQL server Agent (SQL server 2008 R2 SP 2)

    Hi All,
    I have a simple SSIS package that reads a flat file and copies it into a SQL Server table.
    When the flat fiel is on the C drive I have no problem runnign this package from SQL Server Agent, but as soon as I update the path to a network location the package only works when I run it manually, but fails when is executed via the SQL Server agent job.
    The error says "cannot open the datafile", while the datafile location is valid.
    Is this a kind of limitation of a SQL Server Agent that only local files are allowed to be processed?
    Thanks,

  • Problem loading video over internet

    Well, after banging my head against the wall the last couple of days and going through these forums I've decided to ask for some assistance.
    I can't seem to get the video to play on the internet.  It works fine locally and I've loaded the page from the server itself and it works fine.  Of the three browsers I'm using, Safari, at least gives me an error stating that it can't locate the "flv" file.  Even though I know it's there and it's in the same directory as the other files it is able to load.
    It's possible that the video is getting blocked, but how that is happening is unknown to me.  I've  checked my router ports and 80 is open as well as 8080.
    Here is a link to the site, (This is an example page downloaded from the Dreamweaver site for testing purposes)

  • Having problems connecting to wireless network when extended

    Hi. I recently switched over to a mac and love it!! However I recently purchased a Time Capsule and a Airport Extreme to extend the network and am having problems. My macbook continues to log onto the guest network and not the main wireless network. When I try to switch to the main network it asks me for the WPA password and then it tries to connect but then states connection timeout. When I remove the guest network from my list of networks it will not allow me to connect to the internet at all through the main wireless network unless I power down the airport extreme that is extending the network. One final note, I have no problems at all if I keep the airport extreme shut down and do not extend the network. It seems it is not the time capsule but the airport extreme. One other additional note, my windows machines are having no problem connecting to the main wireless network with the network extended!!

    Welcome to the discussions!
    A few thoughts:
    If you have not already done so, it will makes things easier to troubleshoot if you assign separate names to your "main" and "guest" network. By default, they are the same name and it sometimes is difficult to know what network you are actually connected to.
    Open AirPort Utility, click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Look for an "options" button. This should allow you to assign a separate name for the "guest" network.
    The "main" network can be extended, but the "guest" network cannot be extended. Your other computers may be connecting to the "guest" network unless they are newer devices capable of connecting at 802.11n only 5 GHz.
    It's easy to make a mistake when setting up the "extend" feature. Please check the following settings for your TC and AirPort AX or AEBS (You posted in the Airport Express forum, but talk about having an AirPort Extreme in your post).
    You will use AirPort Utility - Manual Setup as above to check your settings as follows:
    _On the Time Capsule:_
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Wireless Mode should be "Create a wireless network"
    Make sure there is a check mark next to "Allow this network to be extended"
    _On the AX or AEBS:_
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Wireless Mode should be set to "Extend a wireless network"
    Make sure there is a check mark next to "Allow wireless clients"
    The Security and Password settings must match the settings of the TC exactly
    You should now be able to identify whether your computers are connecting to the "main" or "guest" network. If your computers are connecting to the "guest" network, they are connecting directly to the Time Capsule regardless of their location in relation to your device that is extending the network.
    Using your Mac, if you hold down the "option" key while you click on the fan shaped airport icon at the top of the screen, you will be able to see whether you are connected to the "main" network (802.11n 5 GHz) or the "guest" network" (802.11 2.4 GHz).
    The BSSID will display the AirPort ID of the device that you are connected to. By noting the ID of your Time Capsule and AX or AEBS, you will know which device you are actually connected to on the network. As you move closer to the "extending" device, your computer should automatically switch to the device with the strongest signal.
    Please post back on your findings.

  • Problem keying graphics over video when exported.

    Hey
    I'm new to FCE, but I work professionally in the television industry doing graphics/compositing/3d.
    Outside of work, I mess around with my own movies and hardware.
    I'm cutting together a piece shot with my Canon VIXIA HG20 camera. The footage/project is 720p.
    My problem is that when I key a graphic over the video, it looks great while working in Final Cut, but when I export a full quality video, the graphics cause the entire screen to shift levels. The saturation drastically changes the instant the graphic begins to fade on. It doesn't shift gradually with the fade. This is only visible after export. The graphic is rendered. The image is a 32-bit Targa. The levels in the graphic are within the NTSC broadcast color range. I prepped it the same as I've done for years professionally.
    I don't think this is a compression issue, because the change happens immediately, before the graphic is even barely visible.
    I looked around, but couldn't find anyone with similar issues, but hopefully this has already been figured out by someone.
    Any answers or suggestions are much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Colin

    Thanks for your reply.
    As far as I know, targas can only be RGB. I couldn't find a way in Photoshop to work in YCbCr. I have Photoshop CS, so its pretty old, but even on my work computer, which has CS3, I didn't see anything. Next week I'll be installing CS4, so there might be something in that.
    I won't be able to test anything until late tonight, but I'll try several formats to see if they make a difference. I'm wondering if there might also be some kind of option in FCE to convert imported graphics to the correct color space.
    When keying graphics over video in your projects, how do you save them(formate,color space, etc)? Ever see this issue?
    Thanks for your help

    I connect to my iTunes to watch movies over my Airport network. A movie will play for about 20 min then loose connection. I have to go to my host iMac with Mountain Lion and restart iTunes then reconnect on my mac mini downstairs which is running Leopard. A real pain in the bu##.
    It appears to be shutting down my network connection for some reason. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know what to do?
    I will watch a movie using my appleTV and see if it does the same thing. Then I will know if it is realted to my iMac and not compatability with Leopard.

    ok, I watched a movie on my AppleTV without interuption so it must be a conflict between my Leopard on the mac mini and Mountain Lion on my iMac.

  • After Effects Render Engine Loads project over network then closes? Any advice please?

    Hi,
    I have just started trying to use the After Effects Render Engine over the network. I have followed some online video's where you have to set the main project computer as Multi Machine output etc and then collect folder to a network drive then go to the node computers and open Render Engine and go to watch folder and point it to your files on the network drive. It finds the project and opens it but then instantly closes it and then continues to search.
    Where is this please?
    Also I can't seem to tick "Skip Existing Files" in my project
    Kind Regards
    Joe

    There is no built-in network render features in AE, so we probably need to see that video you are referring to.
    A wild guess though, is that you are trying to render a video file, instead of an image sequence. "Skip Existing Files" only works with sequences. Anyway there is, to my knowledge, no way to make several machines write to the same video file. But you can start the project rendering an image sequence, from multiple computers, to the same network folder, and then use the "Skip Existing Files" feature to prevent overwriting the frames.
