Stop flash video from autoplaying??

My Flash 8 videos are autoplaying, despite having <param
name="play"
value="false" /> and <embed src="video1.swf"
play="false" loop="false" etc
etc set in the HTML - can anyone help? The page has a number
of flash videos
on it that people want to watch one after the other - it's
not good that
they all start playing immediately! I would like them to
appear, but paused
on frame 1, and they can then be played as necessary.
Cheers,
D.

click on the FLVplayback component and open the component
inspector. Set autoplay to false.

How to Stop Flash Video from Downloading

Greetings,
Can anyone tell me how to configure Flash video from
automatically beginning the download process as soon as the page
loads? I've set autoPlay to false, so it does stop on the first
frame. But I can still see the download progress bar when it should
wait for a click.
Thanks

Is this one of those questions you guys get tired of
answering? ;-)
I've reviewed the answers for similar questions, but found
none that fully addressed my issue. If you could refer me to a
post, or an Adobe tutorial that deals with this head on, I would
really appreciate it.
Thanks.

How do you stop HTML5 video from autoplaying?

I don't want video to play automatically. Flashblock achieves this for flash videos, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do the same thing for html5 video (on vine, for example).
None of the about:config settings appear to have any effect, and html5 isn't handled by a plugin so click to activate doesn't do anything either.

I confirm `flash-control`stops autoplay for html5 and old Flash videos (attached screen), plus it has a comprehensive little FAQ right on the extension page :)
Unlike `about:config` and other extensions I tried in vain.
Thanks @FredMcD @fledermaus for mentionning the former.

Stop Flash videos from looping

Does anyone have a fix for looping Flash videos? I have
produced some Flash videos with Camtasia. They don't loop anywhere
else (including the preview function built into Presenter within
Powerpoint), but they do loop when published. Thanks.

Good call Leo!
This is a well known artifact of dropping swfs into the
Presenter
environment...and for what it's worth, there's another work
around to that "bug" in the following way:
Rather than having all of your animations occuring on the
main timeline in Flash, what you might want to explore is
converting *everything* into movie clips; this way, you can totally
control what happens (and when) based on user interaction.
As an example, I have a sample demo you can view on my site
here:
http://robrode.com/Breeze_demos/myIdentity/index.htm
If you advance to slide 17 of that presentation, what you'll
see is the slide set up and the flash anim located on the lower
section of the slide will just park on frame one. It's only when
you click the thumbnails that the additional animated objects
become visible.
The point in all of this is that more you keep things OFF the
main timeline, the better. Granted, this example is set up such
that we're asking the learner to explore stuff, but with nested
movie clips in Flash, so long as you know how to "call" the movie
clips, you can totally control the playback of your flash content.
Hope that helps!
Rob

Is there a way to stop flash player from looping on someone elses website?

Is there a way to stop flash player from looping on someone elses website?
The longer we have the site open the more memory it uses as flash continues to loop.

how can i use flash player on my website http://howhut.com/ its a tutorial website and i want to use my own flash player instead of using embeded code from other video websites. Is there any way?

Dear All, I can't play flash videos from any web site through firefox because it freezes but when i run firefox as administrator then it works fine (But Google Chrome Plays all videos normally.) . I am using Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Please help

Dear All,
Firefox hangs when i try to play flash videos from any site but when i run firefox as administrator it works fine. (but Google Chrome, Opera & I.E9 Plays videos without running as administrator.) I am using Windows 7 & Firefox 7.0.1. Please help.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

IPad stop playing videos from sites

Is it possible to save a Flash video from a webpage?

So you can't right / ctrl click and save as, but is there any other way of saving Flash videos from webpages? Or would that conflict with what Flash was designed to do? (I'm thinking that perhaps publishers want to control and monitor viewing of their content, rather than release it for uncontrolled redistribution. Fair enough.)
As someone looking at getting into publishing Flash content, is there any way for me to enable viewers to download content? I haven't got to the Publishing for Web chapter in my Flash book yet, so maybe I'll learn all about this soon enough...
...though any input would be appreciated.

Yay it worked after a bit of trial and effort (was holding buttons Dow too long). Thanks so much for your help

Cannot transcode to Flash Video from Encore 3

I have recently purchased the Adobe Production Premium package and successfully prepared several Blu-ray and standard definition DVD's. However, whenever I attempt to output any of these DVD's to Flash Video by selecting Build>Output to Flash from within Encore 3, my menus transcode, but when Encore gets to my timeline video, the progress bar goes to about 20% almost instantly and remains there forever. I have tried several different types of video files including short Quicktime movies created in Final Cut Pro as well as other formats in the Encore 3 timeline. The result is always as given above. When this happens, I finally have to Force Quit Encore 3 because selecting cancel on the transcode give me an endlessly spinning beach ball.
I am running Encore 3 on a 8-core Mac Pro (Early 2008 model) with 12 GB of RAM and under Leopard 10.5.4 (latest version with all updates installed). I have successfully transcoded these timelines that seem to freeze Encore 3 using MPEG SlipStream so I know the files are OK.
Is anyone else having this problem? Is there any solution to the problem? Does output to Flash simply not work under Leopard?
Thank you in advance for responding.
Tom

For the benefit of those subscribing to this thread here is the latest exchange in the several-week long series of exchanges that I have had with Adobe Technical Support over the failure of Encore CS3 to output to Flash on the Mac platform. I think you will find it interesting that Adobe Tech support cannot even agree among themselves that this is a problem.

Hello Thomas,
Thank you for contacting Adobe® Web Support for assistance with Adobe
Encore® CS3.
I understand that when you try to export Flash® video from Encore CS3
that the trans-coding process freezes at 20%, and that you would like to
know if this issue will be resolved in the Encore® CS4 release.
First of all, yes you are correct, I inadvertently wrote CS3 beta when
I meant to say CS4 beta. Also, I was doing this test on the Mac. The
Export to Flash feature is included in Encore CS4. Here is a link to
the CS4 help file that describes the feature (copy and past into the
address bar of your web browser):
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/EncoreDVD/4.0/WS99E1F60A-A9DE-4267-ACA7-0EBB
18B75113a.html
I was not able to locate any documentation regarding a bug when
exporting to Flash from Encore CS3, and when I tested this function on
my Mac using Encore CS3 it worked fine. Perhaps a subsequent QuickTime
update, or the Mac OS 10.5.5 update corrected the issue.
Unfortunately I am unable to give you a definitive answer regarding the
functionality of Encore CS4. We are limited as to what information we
can give out during the pre-release period. The best way for you to
evaluate the software is to download the free trial when it is released.
That way you will know for sure if it has the necessary capabilities
before you make a purchase.
I hope this information helps to resolve your issue. If you require
further assistance with this issue, please update your web case with
complete details, including what steps you have applied and any error
messages you are receiving.
You may also call Technical Support at (800) 642-3623. We are available
from 6:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Monday - Friday, Pacific Time.
Kind regards,

Adam,
Thank you for your October 2 response. In that response you stated: "I was not able to locate any documentation regarding a bug when exporting to Flash from Encore CS3, and when I tested this function on my Mac using Encore CS3 it worked fine. Perhaps a subsequent QuickTime update, or the Mac OS 10.5.5 update corrected the issue."
I am using Mac OS 10.5.5 and I am using the latest version of Quicktime (7.5.5). What version of Quicktime are you using on your Mac that properly works with Encore's output to Flash?
Please note that I was expressly told by Adobe Tech Support (and I have it in writing) that Encore's Output to Flash was broken in a Quicktime update. I believe that the last version of Quicktime that Encore output to Flash will work with is 7.3.x.
I will definitely test Encore CS4's output to Flash before purchasing.
Please do let me know the version of Quicktime that you have on your Mac that is working correctly in Encore CS3 relative to output
to Flash video.
Thank you.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

My iPhone 5s stopped playing videos from web, Facebook, youtube, instagram etc. What should i do?????

Hi 361,
If you are having issues with your iPhone not playing video from any source, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

How Do I Stop Flash Player From Storing Cache?

Windows XP SP3
Latest Flash Player (i just upgraded it to the latest as of today)
There are a couple of directories on my HDD that appear to be the place where Flash stores cache.
One of them is (#1):
c:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Adobe\Flash Player\AssetCache\
The other is (#2):
c:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#sharedobjects
These directories were so bloated with subdirectories that it literally took about 12 HOURS OR MORE to delete everything in them! I'm not kidding.
There must have been 100,000 subfolders or maybe even more in these folders. They were choking everything on my computer that had to read past them.
I FINALLY was able to delete everything from them after hours of work.
Now I want to keep them empty, so this doesn't happen again but I can't find out how to do that. It is so dang frustrating. I looked and looked for a way to shut this storage off.
I finally found the online "Settings Manager" and thought I FINALLY solved the problem after setting the "Global Storage" setting to "Never" and unchecking the "Allow third party Flash content to be stored on your computer" and "Store common Flash components to reduce download times" boxes.
BUT NO!!!
It didn't do a thing. I looked at those two folders again and they are still being filled up with new subfolders!!!!
UUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
How do I keep Flash Player from storing this unwanted mess on my computer?!
Thank you for ANY HELP!

PS:
Before I set the global settings as I stated above, I DELETED all the "Websites already visited" from the list in Settings Manager so that ALL Websites would be set according to the global settings.
But none of that did a thing to stop the new folders from being created anyway. How do I stop them??!!!

How to use embed code to insert my flash video from web host whilst keeping my player buttons?

I have created a flash 8 video. It consists of the video.swf
video.flv and skin.swf
When i try to embed it into a remote webpage, the video
player buttons do not show.
How do i enable my webpage of flash video to show the player
controls on a remote webpage using an embed code?

Reece,
> Basicly i just imported a .mov file into flash 8 and
chose
> the FVSS option were it does the rest its self.
If you chose FVSS, that means you're using a Flash Video
Streaming
Service and not just uploading video to your own server.
> So my skin.flv file currently has to be in the same
folder
> as my webpage which is currently not possible for me
> to do.
You can put the skin wherever you like. All that matters is
that you
correctly path to it from the point of view of the HTML page
that holds your
SWF (the SWF that holds the FLVPlayback instance that uses
this skin).
> I need it to allow my skin.flv file to be in the same
folder
> as my vido.swf and video.flv files.
You're uploading your video files to a Flash Video Streaming
Service,
which I haven't done personally, so I don't know what
requirements this
service places on you. Regardless, the location of the skin
SWF file makes
no difference. In the FLA that contains your FLVPlayback
instance, select
that instance and look at the Parameters tab of the Propery
inspector. In
the skin parameter, double click the cell to the right of
that and enter the
path to the skin SWF. It can be absolute (full domain name
and filepath) or
relative. If it's relative, pretend it's the HTML file
looking for that
skin, instead of this SWF file.
