Skin plays fine but swf does not play at all...

I have tried everything and now have simply exhausted my
resources...
Video plays fine in flash cs3 pro, but when I attempt to get
it to play online (using the swfobject.js script), the skin plays
(motion in the seek bar - incessant), but not the video.
[Incidentally, the exact same thing happens when I use the
video1.html file, for what it's worth].
When I replace the video file with so_tester.swf, it plays
properly. This tells me that the html (included below) is right,
but that there is something wrong with the video itself. I tried
Import To Stage, Import Video, and Import To Library, to no avail.
I tried Publish, and Export Movie, to no avail. The flv was made by
exporting from QuickTime. Could that be the problem?
Uploaded to the server are: index.html (see below),
video1.html (not sure if this is needed), video.swf, swfobject.js,
expressinstall.swf, SkinOverAll.swf, and AC_RunActiveContent.js.
I have spent countless hours trying to figure this out. If
someone could please help, it would be GREATLY appreciated.
Here is the entire html of the index page:
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="generator" content="Adobe GoLive">
<title> title</title>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js"
language="javascript"></script>
<style type="text/css">
body {
background-color: #ffcc99;
background-image: url('
http://www.yoursite/pathToImage.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div style="position: absolute; top: 50%;display:
table-cell; vertical-align: middle; text-align: center; width:
100%; padding: 0;">
<div id="flashcontent">
<strong>You need the latest Flash Player, and
Javascript enabled to view this content.</strong>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("video1.swf", "myMovie", "NewWidth",
"NewHeight", "8", "#ffcc99");
so.useExpressInstall('expressinstall.swf');
so.addParam('wmode','transparent');
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Never mind. I figured it out. Used component inspector to
solidify the source of the video, and that worked.

Swf does not play in IE

I have a client who wants his logo in flash. I'm using swfobject to include the swf, but it does not play in IE8 unless I specify compatibility mode.
The site is here...
     thefinancialtap.com
What am I missing?

I'd suggest you get rid of all the IE conditional statement stuff and only use the single <object>, IE will handle that just fine... with or without swfobject.
<object data="path_to_file/file.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="insert_width_of_movie" height="insert_height_of_movie">
            <param name="movie" value="path_to_file/file.swf">
            <param name="SomeOtherParam" value="ParamValue">
</object>
According to your DOCTYPE this validation service agrees. Validate your page here:
http://validator.w3.org/
Notice what is says about the first (IE targeted) <object>.

I cannot play music with my slideshows. I setup the music but it does not play, even with my older slideshows I hear no music.

This category is for iPod shuffle. Is that the type of iPod you have, because your description of the problem does not sound like it's about a shuffle? If it's not a shuffle, what is the iPod model...?
There is music there and I can play it connected to laptop.
Are you doing the playing using the iPod, or are you playing the music using iTunes on the laptop?
All mucis icons read "No music" and this is not correct
Do these icons with "No music" appear on the laptop's screen, or on the iPod's screen

My iMovie voice recording is suddenly not working. As I record, it shows the green bars; however, when I play the recording it does not play my voice over at all nor show the green bars. I was mid-way through my project when this problem occured.

As I record, it shows the green bars; however, when I play the recording it does not play my voice over at all nor show the green bars. I was mid-way through my project when this problem occured. HELP!!!!

As far as I can see, it's random. Everything. Nothing makes any sense!
A the moment, the iPhone is playing music with the SIM card, but without anything plugged into it, but it's occasionally fading in and out.
Oh, and I doubt this is related, but about two months ago the iPhone failed to show that the battery was draining - it was stuck at 100%. This went on for a few days, it wouldn't even warn me at the 20% mark, it would just shut off. This happened for at least three full charges - I remember at one point it suddenly started working again at about the 70% mark, I'm not sure if it was alright after that or if it went glitchy on the next charge... but in any case, the problem mysteriously never reappeared after those few days.

Something is wrong with your charger or cable.

Placed .swf does not play correctly

I have placed a .swf on a page. When exported to pdf the movie does not play correctly. It plays correctly before being placed. I used flash cs4 actionscript 3 to create the .swf.
I have selected the highest level for pdf when exporting.

ok! I figured it out. This is what is happening. Apparently when you place a .swf in indesign and make a button on the page to show the movie when clicked and then export to pdf -- there is a time delay from the time you click on the button and the movie starts to play in a floating window. Its just a few frames of 24 fps movie but that is enought for whatever gaget that reads the movie to miss the first few frames.
So in effect any info in the first few frames is not read. So i had a stop on the first frame that was not being read. I put the stop on frame 7 and now it plays just like I had hoped.
I hope this helps anybody else out that has had a similar problem.

We love apple email, but it does not play wall with other venders when you want to use your own domain (lags, disconnections, etc.)? What vendor should we use to make it push and work well? We want to stay with Apple Mail.

Help, our AppleMail does not play well with other Vendord to use our own domain. iCloud mail works great, but so far others we have tried lag, disconnec, etc. not nearly as good as icloud mail. Should we try exchange or office 365 plans with Apple Mail/ a lot more expensive?

Microsoft Exchange is the best business solution, Office 365 will give a hosted version that works well, as you noted it is not the cheapest. You should also look at Zimbra, an excellent service.

Is there something i have to due before, after or during rendering so that the finished DVD plays in all DVD players
thanks

Hi
*I do put paper labes on discs --*
NEVER DO THAT - The ability to get them perfectly centered is near to impossibly
DVDs are many tims more sencitive to missaligmement by 1/100 or 1/1000 of a millimeter.
CDs often can handle this - but still not advicably.
I do.
• Use only Verbatim (Taiyo Yuden - also recommended by many - no own experience)
• DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW)
• Burn at an as slow speed possibly eg x1 with iDVD08 or higher or Roxio Toast™
or Apple Disk Util tool
• NEVER under 25Gb free space on internal boot hard disk (others not important)
• I use a Cleaning-DVD from time to time
• I burn max 3 DVD at a time then cool for 20min
• I use the Cleaning DVD on my other players as well
On Quality.
*DVD quality*
1. iDVD 8 has three levels of qualities.
iDVD 6 has the two last ones
• Professional Quality (movies up to 120 min.) - BEST
• Best Performances (movies less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
• High Quality (in iDVD08) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
2. From
• FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not selfcontaining, no conversion)
• iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
when the movie includes photos. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
• iMovie’08 not meant to go to iDVD. Go via Media Browser or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly eg x1 (in iDVD’08 this can also be set)
This can also be done with (Apple) Disk Util tool.
4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc).
5. Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
6. DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW)
7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
8. Don’t burn more than three DVD at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while befor next batch.
iDVD quality also depends on:
• HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx 25Gb.
less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
• What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
• What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
(If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JESDeinterlacer3.2.2 do the conversion)
(Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
(US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
(EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
UNLESS: They are plabacked by a Mac - then You need not to care
• What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
• How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD08
Pro Quality (only in iDVD08)
Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
Best / High Performances (most often my choise)
1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD08
2. Project info: Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD08.
Region codes:
iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
DVD Studio pro can set Region codes:
1 = US
2 = EU

TS1424 I have downloaded movie rental but it does not play

I have downloaded retal movies before and have never had an issue, but today I rented a movie thru Itune store, it downloaded but does not play. What can I do to rectify this issue?

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

SWF does not play after publish.... OS compatibility bug?

I have embedded SWFs that will not play once the Presenter file is published. They appear to be "frozen" on the first frame.
Here's the setup:
The SWFs are scripted in AS2 (not AS3)
SWFs are built in Flash Pro CS5 and are published to Flash Player 9.
They are not Captivate files.
PowerPoint 2007 (12.0.6535.5002) SP2 MSO (12.6535.5002)
Presenter 7.0.5 Build 7588
Microsoft Windows 7 Pro 64bit
BUT, I can open the same file on another computer with this setup, and it publishes just fine.
The SWFs are scripted in AS2 (not AS3)
SWFs are built in Flash Pro CS5 and are published to Flash Player 9.
They are not Captivate files.
PowerPoint 2007 (12.0.6535.5002) SP2 MSO (12.6535.5002)
Presenter 7.0.5 Build 7588
Microsoft Windows Vista Business
The only difference appears to be my OS. Does anyone know of any bugs with Presenter in Windows 7?
UPDATE:
As I type this, literally, I got a notice that there's a Presenter 7.0.6 Update. So I went ahead and installed it on the Windows 7 box. Republished the Presenter course, and wouldn't you know it... the SWFs are now playing!
The patch says this: The Adobe® Presenter 7.0.6 update resolves Adobe Presenter's compatibility issues with PowerPoint 2010 and some important issues identified in Adobe Presenter 7.0.5 (Although the patch site doesn't bother providing us with a list of what those important issues are! Thanks Adobe, you rock.)
--- Well, it fixes MY issue for Windows 7/Presenter 7/PowerPoint 2007 too.

See the updated within the post. Installing the 7.0.6 patch was the fix.

Just started CS5.5 but video does not play in preview

I just got a brand new (to me) Panasonic AC130P Camera for my work / office and recorded some simple test shots.
All of the videos were shot in MTS format / AVCHD 1920 x 1080 (1.0).
When I put them in my bin then click on it, the small preview box on the top does not move and only audio comes through. When I click and drag it to the preview box, it only plays audio. I have messed around with the output icon to see if I can get something but all I can get are the waveforms etc to work, not the actual video I shot.
I'm maybe considred old scool (Worked with a lot of DV, SVHS, etc but never digital HD, this is my first time) so a lot of the HD settings are really new to me. Am I missing something here?
I have a feeling that it has to do with the video / graphics card but has anyone else experienced this before? Any advice would be helpful. Thank you!

Thanks for the reply! I did watch that video however, doesn't solve my issue of playback or preview.
I don't have issues with the sequence rather, I have an issue of the video showing up at all in Premiere. I don't see it in the preview or sequence monitors however I hear audio and the other output devices can read the RGB frequencies.an
I've used CS3 in the past and never had an issue like this. The footage that I took can be previewed through Windows Media Player and other devices but it seems like Premiere doesn't want to play it back for me, visually.
So visually you can see this:
As you can see my sequence cursor is placed right in the middle of the sequence with no video playing and also, the preview box for the clips in the bin also has the cursor in the middle which should also allow some sort of video to be shown. Instead, I have these bleek boxes of gray.
If anyone has experienced this, please let me know. Thank you!

SWF Does not Play

I am having a problem getting an inserted SWF to play.
The movie plays fine in Flash 8.
If I publish it from Flash 8 the HTML verion plays fine.
If I export to SWF the generated SWF work fine.
When I insert the SWF "Insert - Medi - Shockwave" in DW8 I
can't get it to run in Dreamweaver (i.e. the play button turns the
swf blank) and it won't play when published using FTP.
Can anyone help.
Thanks.

Thanks for your response - I tried this but didn't work
either, however, it prompted me to try something else that did
work.
I had the SWF file in another (assets) directory which was
referenced in DW8 - I changed this so that the SWF file was in the
same directory as the html file and this worked. Why it didn't see
the reference to the other directory I don't know?
HI

Skin plays fine but swf does not play at all...
