Problems with FLV and Dreamweaver

Hey everyone, I'm back with another rookie issue lol
I am trying to insert flash video with a playback skin into DW. From what I have been reading, it seems simple. Inserting a .swf is no prob, but it seems doing it with a skin is a different animal. I was about to start pulling my hair out and throwing things when I decided to take a walk.
I just don't understand what I am doing wrong. I have an .avi that I encoded to .flv using Adobe Media Encoder. I would just import this into DW as is but I MUST have a full screen button in the playback skin, and for some ridiculous reason DW has no skins with a fullscreen button.
So, I open the .flv into Flash and choose a skin that suits my fullscreen needs. Flash then tells me that, "A Flash video component will be created on the stage and configured for local playback" when it finishes. I understand that the video skin is copied to a new .fla file that will have to be uploaded as well? I also understand that a .swf will be created for the skin that must be uploaded as well. I test the .swf that contains my video, and no problems all is as it should be.
I upload all the necessary files into my DW directory, and insert the .swf. When I go to preview in browser, it tells me "Error #2044: Unhandled skinError:. text=[IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2035: URL Not Found. URL: SkinUnderAllNoCaption.swf"]" Is this because I am trying to sets it locally? I read that the source parameters will have to be changed to reflect the filepath on my server. Seems logical. But is this the filepath of the .fla or the .flv, or is it for the .swf that I am editing parameters for? I am just confused, if the .swf is already embedded then why do I need to upload the .flv too? I also have the .swf skin in the same folder but it won't show up in preview either.
I guess my problem in a nutshell is, why won't my skin show up, and which files need to be uploaded? I am lost on this. I am following instructions on all of the tutorials I read, but it just doesn't seem to be working for me.
If anyone has any suggestions for me, I would gladly accept them! As always, much appreciation for reading and for offering any advice!
Thanks,
Jayson

"I understand that the video skin is copied to a new .fla file that will have to be uploaded as well?"
The *.fla is the project file and should not be uploaded.
I do this kind of thing regularly at work so... First, you should create a folder with a good descriptive name, lowercase with underscores between words. Place your fla and flv in that folder. Create a new Flash document in the folder you just created and go "File" - "Import" - "Import Video". As you click through the Wizard select the video controller in the "Skinning" section. Next under "Modify" - "Document" select the background color you want. Then size the document so the video with controller just fits.
Go to "File" - "Publish Setings" and hit the "HTML tab. Make sure that "Flash Only - Allow Full Screen" is selected.
Hit "Publish" and make sure that you "Publish" to the folder you created.
Open the HTML file that was exported from Flash with Notepad. Carefully select the honkin Javascript that is within the head tag and copy it to clipboard.
Next open the html file that you created n Dreamweaver that will be your video page and paste this Javascript into the same place (inside the head tag).
Next copy and paste the following code from your Flash generated HTML document into the Dreamweaver video page:
:



<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</object>

Next upload the folder with the Dreamweaver generated video html page you want your site visitors to see, minus the FLA file. Everything should work.

Problems with flv and dreamweaver cs4

Hi
out of flash cs3 I generated a flv
with adobe media player all is ok I could see the flv
but when I import the flv into dreamweaver cs4 I get the picture below that means there is no flv
http://s7.directupload.net/...841/tskdqo9d_png.htm
I did this tutorial with the same result
www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/flv_tutorial.html
what is that - what am I doing wrong ???

A picture of a ... a ... video game? ... advert means there is no flv?
How about posting the URL to your actual page rather than what ever that directupload.net image was supposed to be? It will help us to help you.
Meanwhile, I will make a simple guess based upon many similar questions.
Did you remember to upload the Scripts folder?

Uploading problem with Ebay and Dreamweaver MX

I am unable to sync websites with Dreamweaver MX 6.01. When I connect to the remote server, it shuts down the program. I have reinstalled the program, but it still does it. Also, when I use Safari, Opera, and Firefox to upload photos on Ebay, the upload process fails completely, and blows me directly into My Ebay, as if I was not on the selling page at all. I have to go to my PC to do the photo uploads. Seems like it may be a related issue, some kind of uploading problem with Rosetta, or something. I am using a Macbook Pro with the 2.0Ghz processor, connected with ethernet cable, and firewall is set to off. Any ideas?

For E-Bay you might try the following:
Type the following command in Terminal (while Safari is NOT running):
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
Then launch Safari, and you will be able to use the new Debug menu.
If you ever wish to disable it again, just repeat the command with a "0" instead of a "1".
Under the Debug menu, you'll see the User Agent sub-menu; select Windows MSIE 6.0 from the list and then try connecting to your web site
Dreamweaver you might need to update your version.

Problems with FLVs and personal media player

We've created our own media player that will handle FLVs, SWF
and MP3 files. Its in the library as a linked item and we wrote a
class to handle everything for it. First we started coding for the
FLVs (not getting to the other 2 yet) and we're having problems
with them. Sometimes the FLV won't load at all, sometimes it will
stop about 2 to 3 seconds into the FLV and won't play anymore, and
100% of the time, if we go to a new frame (this is for CBT) and
load another FLV it won't show up at all. While IN flash, it will
load the first FLV, but when running it as a SWF or Published EXE,
its "sketchy" about loading even the first FLV.
the information is pulled from an XML file that has what file
it is, the position on the screen, etc. The FLV lives in the same
directory as the SWF file does as well.
To load in the mediaPlayer and FLV file we use this:
content_mc.addChild(new mediaPlayer(mediaFile, myType,
mediaX, mediaY));
the content_mc is an empty movie clip that just sits on the
stage so we can go through and erase all the children for the next
frame:
var mcNumChildren:uint = content_mc.numChildren;
for(var c:uint=0; c<mcNumChildren; c++) {
content_mc.removeChildAt(0);
I've attached the class for the mediaPlayer linked library
item.
does anyone know why this is giving me problems? we've had
everyone here look at it, and we just can't figure it out!

I believe Quicktime Pro (which is available for Windoze) is capable of opening any WMP files and then you just export it as iPod format. That is how I get video onto the iPod. The Music and Videos all can be placed onto your iPod through iTunes.
So, if you are creating videos in your program, and want them on your iPod, then that is how you can do it.
Videos on your iPod have nothing to do with the formatting of your music. But, as the earlier post stated, change your prefs in iTunes to import as MP3. But, your videos HAVE to be in MP4 or M4V format to work on the iPod.
Good luck... and I'm a j3susfreak too

Problems with IE and dreamweaver

Hi - I've used dreamweaver for years now on and off, but IE
has just started behaving really anoyingly (even more so than
before)
I've just done a simple navigation button, with an over image
switch, but whenever I preview it in IE there a big security
acitivation warning and a message saying 'allow blocked content'.
This never used to happen - is there a fix as I've spent hours
trying to get it not to do this ?
Also, I'm wanting to do some text links using css. I've done
the first ones ok,
http://www.openmediasystems.co.uk/hostedsites/buckinghamsinternational/index.html
but now I want to do some using a different colour, and I
can't seem to get this to happen without it changing the original
colour of the text links.
ANY HELP would be very very much appreciated !!

New Sound Quality Problems with Flash and Macintosh

First I noticed the the Flash 8 Video Encoder exported low
low quality sound, as if pass through some bit-crusher folder,
happened on several macs in the office. Finally, I try it on
Windows XP, and no sound problems with FLV export (and it was
exporting videos 400% faster than macs).
Now, both inside Flash Ap itself, and worse in the SWF,
stream sounds are low-quality, with 16bit 44k pristine-sounding

Problem with JFrame and busy/wait Cursor

Hi -- I'm trying to set a JFrame's cursor to be the busy cursor,
for the duration of some operation (usually just a few seconds).
I can get it to work in some situations, but not others.
Timing does seem to be an issue.
There are thousands of posts on the BugParade, but
in general Sun indicates this is not a bug. I just need
a work-around.
I've written a test program below to demonstrate the problem.
I have the problem on Solaris, running with both J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
I have not tested on Windows yet.
When you run the following code, three JFrames will be opened,
each with the same 5 buttons. The first "F1" listens to its own
buttons, and works fine. The other two (F2 and F3) listen
to each other's buttons.
The "BUSY" button simply sets the cursor on its listener
to the busy cursor. The "DONE" button sets it to the
default cursor. These work fine.
The "SLEEP" button sets the cursor, sleeps for 3 seconds,
and sets it back. This does not work.
The "INVOKE LATER" button does the same thing,
except is uses invokeLater to sleep and set the
cursor back. This also does not work.
The "DELAY" button sleeps for 3 seconds (giving you
time to move the mouse into the other (listerner's)
window, and then it behaves just like the "SLEEP"
button. This works.
Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

I've had the same problems with cursors and repaints in a swing application, and I was thinking of if I could use invokeLater, but I never got that far with it.
I still believe you would need a thread for the time consuming task, and that invokeLater is something you only need to use in a thread different from the event thread.

Problem with installing and running some applications or drivers

When installing and installing some items, towards the end of the installation I get this message:
/System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
*was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update*
The end result is that some things do not seem to work properly, such as my HP printer. Would anybody have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Thank you for your response. Originally, I had a problem with Airport and ended up reinstalling Snow Leopard. Since then, when downloading upgrades etc, such as HP printer drivers, iTunes etc., towards the end of the download when its running the script, I get this message: /System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
+was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update+
Sometimes, the download hangs and is unable to complete. The main problem I've encountered so far with an application is when I use the printer to scan an image via Preview, it's blank: there's nothing there.

Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated by itself and now outlook and address book have each over 340,000. What should I do?

Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated entries and have now 340,000. I reinstalled microsoft office and, thus, outlook, and reinstalled mac OS X system and applications. While I managed to delete outlook contacts so that I can re-sync with my blackberry, the contacts at Mac Address Book were not deleted and still have over 340,000 entries. I do not mind deleting all contacts since I have back up, but I have not been able to delete them. Also, when I go at Address Book and try to delete or merge duplicated entries, the system takes forever and never ends because of such large amount of entries. Worse, when I do so I run out of RAM memory.
My Macbook pro is just 2 months old.
What should I do? Is there a way to delete my Mac Address Book without having the problem above?
Many thanks

Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)

but that did not help,

Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"

Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"
The files are not corrupt. The problem is occurring with all DMGs that are apparently formatted in MS-DOS FAT16. No the file will not mount with Disk utility or any other disk mounter programs I have found.
This is now the second time this occurred and now effects my MBP and my iMac. First time i spent days with Apple support and the only solution was ultimately back up the data, reformat the HD, start over from scratch and reload everything. That lasted about a month before the problem resurfaced and is now an issue on both iMac and MBP.
I tried to identify all the programs I installed immediately before the error, as I am convinced it is the result of a software conflict.
Recent programs includes:
1) upgrading from Parallels 5.5 to 6.0 on both machines.
2) using an HP secure II usb drive and setting up a secure disk.
3) installing new itunes 10
4) new update to Flip For Mac.
The files affected are downloaded dmgs, including personal brain and google earth, both which are formatted in FAT16.
Any help or thoughts? Apple has now spent hours trying and they say i now have to reformat and wipe and start over. That is unacceptable and based on pasted experience the problem is likely to repeat itself. having to wipe and rebuild a HD ever month is not an solution. i need to fid the root problem.
In the meantime, anyone got a real solution on how to extract the data for a DMG using a different method?

Where you able to find the solution, i am having the same problem, all was fine till i install some programs only same one i saw did we both did was flip4mac i uninstalled it but the problem is still there, i also restored and erased the hardrive but im not up to doing that all over again. If you found anything out let me know i would greatly appreciate it

Problem with Send and Receive Emal In SAP System

Hi gurus!
I have a following quote:
Dear !
I have a problem with send and receive email in SAP system following :
I want to test send and receive email in local network at my company. I
had two server
Server 1 : I setup Exchange Mail Server 2007 with domain controller is
fes.com
Server 2 : I setup SAP ERP ECC 6.0
On Server 1 : I created 2 account ( u1Afes.com and u2Afes.com ) and then I tested send and receive email between u1 and u2 in local network through Microsoft Outlook 2007 -> OK
and then
On Server 2: I had configured send and receive email on SAP system
through tcode SBWP, SCOT and SOST as Note 455140 - "Configuration of
e-mail, fax, paging or SMS using SMTP"
for example :
I logged in SAP system with user Basis01 (with email u1Afes.com ) -> then,using tcode SBWP -> new message -> send to u2Afes.com with Internet Mail type and then status message with green light -> sending ok
and then I have used Microsoft Outlook 2007, I logged with account u2 ->check email -> Ok. I saw message which send from u1
Finally, My problem is how can receive mail in SAP system without using Microsoft Outlook
For example:
Login system SAP with Basis01 account (with u1Afes.com ) -> tcode SBWP ->New Message -> send to u2Afes.com
and then
Login system SAP with Basis02 account (with u2Afes.com ) -> tcode ??? ->
To receive email from Basis01 (with u1Afes.com )
Please help me now
Thanks
I replace "@" with "A" because of banning email of this forum.
This quote is about sending email in local network. And we can't receive any email from the outside email address. Addition if I wanna send email to internal email in Internet (we've just tried with email address in local network) What should I config in SAP and Exchange ?
By the way, Is SAP Server IP added to Relay Agent for sending or receiving mail ?

Hi,
This problem is a classic problem of mail routing via Exchange. Exchange like most mail servers use the domain part of the email address as a means to route mails. So I will make an assumption that your main company mail addrss is "User @ fes.com".
So when you send a mail to the "User @ fes.com mail" address the mail is delivered to your Outlook mail address as this is the default route for company.
(Q) So how do you get your Exchange server to relay the mail into the sending SAP system?
(A) The easiest way would be to setup and unique mail domain for your SAP system. I always recommend "user @ client.sid.company.com" which in your case would be "u1 @ 100.PRD.fes.com". You can then instruct Exchange to send any emails addressed to 100.PRD.fes.com domain to your SAP system. Also using this format of address you can configure multiple mail connections into multiple SAP systems.
(A) Another answer would be to enter the "Full" email address (LOcal and Domain part of address) into the routing rule for Exchange e.g. "U1 @ fes.com" so that all emails addressed to this user will be delivered into SAP. However this method requires a lot of Admin as you will have to update Exchange with ALL email address that need to receive emails. Also if your corporate mail address is "U1 @ fes.com" then all mails will be forwarded to SAP.
I would definitely NOT recommend this method but the decision is up to you.
P.S. The IP address of the SAP system is entered into the mail header of the email. This is standard practice in SMTP relay. You can suppress this header in Exchange
Hope this helps
Michael
