Scorm pkg made up of number of FLV files takes time to load in LMS
Hi everyone,
I m creating the scorm packages in captivate. The source, i have received in MP4 format which I am converting into FLV files. I have loaded these FLV files on to slides in captivate. This way I am creating the scorm package using scorm 1.2 settings.
Problem: I have loaded the scorm package to LMS and tested it. It takes longer to load the files than the usual time. Can I reduce this time frame somehow? I know video needs a buffering time, but if there's any way to reduce this time - it would be a great help.
Pls help..
Thanks & regards
Vikas
Hi Vikas,
The time it is taking is because of the size of the project and the load on the bandwidth at your end.
Basically, you need to reduce the size of your package. So, to do that encode your FLV videos to a smaller size using Adobe Media Encoder. And then add them to the slide again and re-publish the SCORM package.
Tip : While Encoding, Keep the level as Baseline or Low and Target Bitrate as least as possible, it would display your the expected file size at the below, when you use custom encoding settings.
Good Luck.

OK, I finally got my QuickTime Pro moved to my new laptop But...
It't won't load FLV files...
Questions:
1 - Searched & found about Perian but I think it only works on Mac's... true?
2 - How can i get Quick Time Pro to work with FLV and other video formats on my PC? I want to use it to convert various formats.
Thanks for any help.Question 1, Perian is for Mac's. Question 2, QT does not work with FLV files, you'll have to use->http://www.martijndevisser.com/blog/flv-player/

Can we convert standard video files in to flv file run time ?
hi all,
We have a one project of Flash media server.
In this project our client requiring function like whatever
standard video file he upload, our flash media server should be
play it.
to achive this requirment we need to convet that video file
in to .FLV runtime on server.
So, is there any script or tool to do this.
ThanksI think you need the Macromedia Flash Media Server to be able
to do what you are asking. Flash 8 can with a Flash Video Encoder
but it does not do it on the fly. There maybe other 3rd party
servers that you can sign-up that allow you do this but if you are
looking for your own solution you will need the FMS 2.0.

How to play and stop flv files through NetStream in AIR Application
Hi,
In a folder I have 'n' number of flv file, which are DRM protected. when the user try to play those files for the first time through my AIR application, it will prompt for username and password and gets the license/voucher from the server and store it in AIR Runtime. so that from the next time onwords it won't prompt for username and password as because it already has license/voucher.
My problem is assume there are 500 files, such that for each file the user has to enter his credentials[username and password]. which is a stupid thing. I want to avoid this process by implementing this process internally/programetically. By playing/accessing each file through netstream from the folder and setDRMAuthenticationCredentials for that file and stop the stream. Here I am able to play each file but I am failed to stop it. I mean to say I will get the license for all the flv files internally[while loading my AIR application], such that user should not be interrupted for his credentials for each file.He should play as if he is accessing/playing a non-DRM protected file. I will be very thank full if any one help me out in this.
public function init():void {
connectStream();
getLicenseForAllFiles();

Rotating .FLV files within a movie
Hi all,
I'm new to Flash 8 and mostly interested in the IMporting and
linking to .flv files within a .swf movie. My question is:
Is there a way to have the .swf file randomly rotate a number
of .flv files? In other words - like being able to upload several
.flvs into a directory and the .swf randomly selects and plays one
of them per page refresh?
I hope I was clear - I'm not up on the lingo yet.
Thanks
DodgeDodge,
> I would be interested in knowing the method, David.
Happy to oblige.
> I'm puzzled that you chose to exclude this information

Dodge, you're absolutely fine. You haven't done a thing
wrong. I was
just being silly. I'm in here almost every day, and sometimes
I get a
chuckle out of answering exactly the question asked. I should
have been
more clear that I was teasing. Honestly, my apologies if I
caused any
headache.
So let's take a look at your goal. You have x-number of
external FLVs
available and would like your SWF file to choose one of those
at random to
display it. We can break this goal down into two parts: a)
loading
external FLV files and b) choosing an item randomly from a
list. Let's
start with the second part -- which you can use, by the way,
to choose
randomly from a group of JPGs, too, or even to jump to a
random frame label.
You'll need a bit of ActionScript for this, but I'll try to
make it
straightfoward. One of the many objects in ActionScript is
something called
an array. An array is essentially a list. Objects are defined
by something
called classes, which dictate the functionality of the object
in question.
The Array class defines all array objects, and we can produce
one to meet
our needs by using the following code. Put this in frame 1 of
your main
timeline.
var videos:Array = new Array();
The term var creates a variable. Our variable is arbitrarily
named
videos, of type Array. We use the expression "new Array()" to
produce an
Array instance (an object). The videos variable basically
points to this
object -- thing of it as your "handle".
The Array class defines a number of methods (things the
object can do).
Because our object is an instance of Array, our object has
available to it
all the methods described in the Array class. (You can read
about all these
classes in the ActionScript Language Reference, by the way --
excellent
reading!)
One of the methods is called Array.push(), which "pushes"
something into
the array.
videos.push("uno.flv");
videos.push("dos.flv");
videos.push("tres.flv");
So ... by invoking Array.push() on our object, we have added
the names
of three FLV files to the first three "slots" of our list.
These can be
retrieved later by uses square brackets and the desired slot
number. Arrays
start at zero, so the first element, uno.flv, lives here ...
videos[0];
... the second lives here ...
videos[1];
... and so on.
Next, we'll use the Math.random() method to generate a
random number
between zero and however many elements are in our array.
We'll get that
upper limit by using the Array.length property. Properties
describe the
characteristics of an object.
In our case, so far, videos.length returns 3, since there
are three
elements in our array.
Math.random() returns a random decimal number between zero
and one, so
if we multiply that by videos.length, then round the number
down to the
nearest integer, we'll have a random number that will choose
one of the
three slots in our array. To round down, we'll use the
Math.floor() method.
We'll store our chosen number in another variable.
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() *
videos.length);
This always returns either 0, 1, or 2, because of the number
of elements
in our array.
Now we can use the number stored in randomNum to access a
particular FLV
name.
videos[randomNum];
Makes sense, right?
Now, there are several ways to load an external FLV. The way
I
prefer -- though, of course, your needs may differ -- is to
forego any of
the Media playing UI Components and use a Video object as
described here ...
http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/flash/how-to-load-external-video
.. then use the expression videos[randomNum] (which returns a
string;
namely, the name of an FLV file) to describe the desired FLV.
Give this a shot and write back with specific questions, if
you have
any. The ease of this approach depends entirely on your
comfort level with
programming, so if you run into snags, don't hesitate to come
back.
I tease, but I don't bite.

Positioning external flv files on stage??
Hy, i am loading 3 flv files so that the first file plays once and the other two loop afterwards. Now i am interested is it possible to position the flv files on the stage to certain coordinates when they start to play (so for example that the first flv plays as default in the centre, the second flv file plays a little bit right and the third plays a little bit left). This is the code i'm using:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
var clips:Array=["1index.flv","2sat.flv","3spavam.flv"];
var index:int = 0;
/* gledamsat would be what I think you are wanting to name the instance of the FLVPlayback on the stage... */
gledamsat.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE,goNext);
function goNext(e:VideoEvent):void {
index++;
if(index > clips.length-1){
index = 1;
gledamsat.source = clips[index];
function init():void{
gledamsat.source = clips[0];
init();
Now i tried these lines to position the flv files but it doesnt work:
if (2sat.loaded == true) {
2sat._x = 400;
if (3spavam.loaded == true) {
3spavam._x = 100;
Can someone help??! Can the flv files be positioned when loaded???Modify the following function
function goNext(e:VideoEvent):void {
index++;
if(index > clips.length-1){
index = 1;
gledamsat.source = clips[index];
to,
function goNext(e:VideoEvent):void
index++;
gledamsat.source = clips[index];
if(index == 0)
gledamsat.x = <original poosition>;
else if(index == 1)
gledamsat.x = <original poosition> + 10;
else if(index == 2)
gledamsat.x = <original poosition> - 10;
if(index == clips.length-1){
index = -1; -

, ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY call_date DESC) AS d_num
FROM table_x
WHERE mobile_no = 989
AND call_date >= DATE '2013-04-25'
AND call_date < DATE '2013-04-26' + 1
SELECT * -- or list all columns except a_num and d_num
FROM got_nums
WHERE 1 IN (a_num, d_num)

hello,
I made a flash project that I published as an exe file. this project calls a number of external flv files. Now, I want to hide these files, because it's my own work and I don't want anyone to steal it, how can I hide these files?
my project will be published on a cd.
thank you for your helpWell the best feature of having all the content on the CD is that it's all self contained, no need to go someplace else (like the Internet) to get content. But it certainly is possible to store the .flv files on a Web server and have Flash content on the CD go to the Internet to download and play the videos. Little more complex to get it all working AND then the user must have an Internet connection available or they can't see the videos. But even then... if it's on the Internet it can be copied.
Or look into sone type of encryption program:
http://www.truecrypt.org/
http://www.axantum.com/axcrypt/
but I'm not sure that you can use the content without first decrypting the data.
As for watermarking and adding a copyright notice, this is normally done when the video is first being edited in whatever software is used to capture and edit the original video file. Once the file is already created, there are software programs to add the mark... something like this:

Converting captivate to single flv file?
Hi,
I'm fairly new to Captivate, so forgive for my ignorance:
I've created my first tutorial and published it. When I look
in the publish folder I get a number of swf files, a html file and
activecontent js file.
This works fine, but the problem is that I want to publish my
tutorial to a streaming video server. In order to do this I need to
convert the captivate tutorial to a single .flv file (my tutorial
has no interactivity).
How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance!Hi rudgr
My gut tells me that we might see this output option emerge
with the next version.
It really isn't all that surprising to me if you know the
history of Captivate. See, It wasn't created by Adobe. Heck, Adobe
didn't even really create the Flash output. That was what
Macromedia created.
I'm not sure if MM truly created Flash technology or if they
acquired it elsewhere, but even Macromedia didn't create Captivate.
Yeah, they made it much sexier and more useful when they gave it
the Timeline. Before that, it was an ugly and nonsensical
application. It did cool stuff, but it made no sense (at least to
me at the time) as far as how you controlled timings and such.
Macromedia bought the eHelp corporation. eHelp owned the
product. And LOL, even THEY didn't create it THEY simply acquired
it and rebranded it under their own name. I was at a conference
working the booth for Adobe when I heard from one of the great
Adobe guys tell us that eHelp actually acquired the technology that
we now know as Captivate so they could get Macromedia interested in
buying them. So even eHelp didn't create Captivate (It was known as
RoboDemo back in those days)
eHelp acquired the technology from another company called
Nexus Concepts. The original product was known as FlashCam. So as
you should be able to clearly see from its pedigree, it should come
as no surprise to anyone that .FLV output isn't there yet.

Hello, I need to export a .FLV file for web, I dont have access to compressor.
I would like to keep the file size small but keep a professional finish, how low can I go in terms of file size?
Any suggestions for dimensions, fps etc?
Any help would be appreciated, thanksthe file is a .mov
.mov is a container. The video inside could have been made with any one of a number of codecs.
768x576 is the current size.
That tells me it is most likely PAL, 25 fps. What was the source media? Could be any of the Beta formats, 3/4", D1, 1"C etc etc. More information is always a good thing. -

Flash CS5 unable to play .FLV files on Macbook Pro
I have a colleague who is trying to put together a Flash package for me on her macbook pro. It needs to play an flv file. She is unable to play flv files on her computer either in Flash or using the Adobe Media Player. I have no problem playing the same files on my macbook pro, we're both running the latest OS and have version 1.8 of Adobe Media Player.
She went to the Adobe site to download the latest version of Adobe Media Player, hoping that might include whatever component is missing on her system. Because of Adobe's decision not to distribute AMP that didn't help. She has Flash Professional CS5 11.0.2 on her system. When she imports an flv video into a Flash project and tries to play it she gets an error message saying it can't stream the video. Note that the video is on her hard drive, it is NOT on the internet so no streaming should be required.
The actual error message is: "the video player is in the connection error state. It enters this state when a video stream attempted to load but was unsuccessful. There are two possible reasons for the error: no connection to the server or the stream was not found."
Since it's a file on her hard drive, and she has loaded the file into the Adobe development environment successfully, the one thing we know for certain is that neither of these reasons is correct. Something is obviously missing on her system, what is it and what can we do to fix it?I'm getting error too (Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound). I'm getting this with CS5. This file was previously made in CS4 and never got this error.
Everything (fla and flv too) is on external hard disk.
As this work requires to be exported to mov, I've found out that everything needs to be on the mac (don't know for pc), like on desktop.
So, let me wrap up disadvantages I got with Flash CS5:
- TextField.embedFont makes the font disappear in CS5, so I can't use it, so I can't "play" with text in a comfortable way (in CS4, with embedFont = true, I was able to rotate and stuff). Now I have to make a bitmap out of it. It means 3 lines of code and a new variable, instead of just an easy one.
- I have to rebuild my entire source path structure for AS classes, as my old one (that took me years of effort to be reasonable and used to work just fine in CS4).
- I have to move stuff from my hard drive to the desktop, to make flv be played and to make a mov out of my animation.
CS5 is making my job harder and making me lose a lot of time to find out errors that have no good reason to exist (it was not error. just "place CS5 doesn't like"). -
