SWF embedding / flash gallery

Does anyone know if it is possible to create a gallery (using any adobe product!) where you can easily create a flash gallery, but instead of the gallery showing large still images - the thumbnails would show larger swfs, that can be clicked or hovered for showing multiple views?
Short of creating a billion buttons and states in flash catalyst, does anyone know how this could be done?
Thank you

Well for starters, I'm getting "File not found" for all these files:
http://www.sail-stlucia.com/New_picturegallery/flashgallery.swf
http://www.sail-stlucia.com/New_picturegallery/swfobject.js
http://www.sail-stlucia.com/New_picturegallery/default.xml
So either the pathing to those files is wrong, files in wrong folder, file names are wrong, or the files are missing.
Until we can do a direct download of all those files, the browser will not be able to find them either.
Best wishes,
Adninjastrator

Embedding Adobe Lightroom 3 Flash Gallery into Website

Exporting Photo Gallery from LR3 into DWcs5 via Insert>Media>SWF, it imports but is stuck loading. Help?
This is what it's stuck as: http://voirlamour.com/weddings.html
The images are all resized to max dimension of 800px, so it's not a size>loading issue. I've Put all files, even dependents (as that helped before).

Help?

The template that I'm using is a user created one, but basically the Pure White, but shut off rows and columns and turn all the font and everything but the photo borders and the button directions to white. You shouljd end up with nothing but the picture with a border and the buttons below it. Again, it was a lightroom flash gallery. If you look on the website now, I substituted a simpleviewer gallery, so don't use that as a reference anymore. =P What it basically showed up as was the spinning loading circle, but it worked in lightroom fine. Although! It did Not work in Lightroom's Preview in browser. The page opened and remained blank without the loading symbol.
Identity Plate: Off
Picture size: X-L (tried with all sizes, really)
Quality: 80% (have increased and decreased)
Sharpening: Standard (tried low already)
Watermarking: Off
There are 9 images 800px at max point apiece. I'm exporting, not uploading it, to my site root folder in DW for the main page. Then insert>media>swf so on and so forth. =]

Flash Player Plugin 14.0.0.145 can't view swf embedded in the powerpoint anymore?

Hello,
There is a known issue with Flash not working in Power Point in Flash Player 14.0.0.145. It will be fixed in the next release. In the mean time, you can download a beta build containing the fix at http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta.
If you have comments on the beta build, please post them at Flash Player Beta Channel, instead of here on the 'Using Flash Player forums.

Embedding Adobe Lightroom 3 flash gallery iweb 09

First things first...
I'm a non .MAC user, currently hosting with Host Gator.
Need exact step by step for getting my flash gallery to work on a particular iweb page. I created a folder called "flash" in my hosts servers root directory, then published the gallery out of Lightroom 3) to my host server, as mentioned above. The flash gallery files are now inside the flash folder.
I have applied the HTML widget on the page I wish to display the gallery using this code...
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase=" http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0, 0" width="550" height="400" align="middle"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.yoursite.com/flash/myflashfile.swf"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" width="550" height="400" align="middle" src="http://www.yoursite.com/flash/myflashfile.swf" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object>
I am unable to wrap my head around this stuff. I followed this tip http://iwebunlimited.com/iweb-tips/tip-1-flash-in-iweb/
So lost!
Please let me know if any further details are required from this end.
Thanks

I think I see your problem.
Your file is not a stand alone swf file.
Lightroom creates a folder containing an index.html file and two sub folders.
What you actually need to do is address the index.html file.
You could either create a link to that file and have it open a new page or use the folling code to produce an "Iframe" and load the page into the iframe.
Below is the code. The link is to a lightroom folder I created as a sample.
Change that to the proper address and it should work. If you apply it in Iweb you should see the result without having to publish.
I played around with the width and height size to try to get an appropriate size.
Change them if needed.
If that's too small the link solution is the only other option I'm aware of.
Hope the helps.
Good Luck

Creating a flash gallery for swf files

is there a template out there for a flash gallery to display other swf files?
Like an image gallery, but instead of images, they are swf files (some could be interactive as well).
Thanks !

You may have to do your own searching for such a template, but you should be able to convert an image version into an swf version without too much modification. If you are loading the files dynamically the same commands would be used. You may just need to mask the area for displaying the swf's since their stages will not define their boundariies when they are loaded into another swf.

Flash gallery related question...

Hi,
I have downloaded the free Flash Gallery/Slide Show which works fine using index.html file. But I would like to add it to my Flash_Website instead of using as seperate html file.
How can I add it to my Flash_Website so that the slide show can be viewed inside my Flash File not in Web Browser using as index.html? Please do help me to solve this problem.

You can use Loader class to achieve this. In your code you will need to load your preview.swf from your Flash_Website.
Loader class help along with sample code is available here http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/Loader.ht ml?allClasses=1

Embedding Flash in HTML using Dreamweaver - stopped working

Hi all, not really sure what's going on, but I've done this many times before and it's worked fine.
I've previously embedding Flash videos I've created in Premiere and/or converted using other software. I simply drag and drop the Flash file where I want it and then adjust layout using code/design etc and that's it, job done. It's always played back fine.
Now for some reason I've tried doing it again this morning and can't figure it out. When I preview the file it doesn't even show the video, but instead displays all the icons for the controls at once in a grid where the video is meant to be. I've tried in IE, Firefox and Chrome, updated drivers, windows, Adobe, Flash etc all to no avail.
I've even tried doing it in a blank HTML page in case some of the template I might have been using was interfering for some strange reason; still no luck. What's even stranger is that a site I created last year is also now not displaying Flash (FLV) content locally, but is working fine on the server.
Does anyone have any ideas?
(CS5 Dw:V11 build 4993, Win7 64bit SP1)
I've pasted the code from the blank HTML page. It's probably something really simple that I've not noticed:

Im' having a VERY similar problem with a few estra 'happy' moments. I have a blog (WP). On this simple and VERY basic blog (with almost NO plug ins) I have attempted to embed FLV videos with CS$ Dreamweaver code.
(This code is different in CS$ than it was in earlier versions as it now calls to the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf as the player and uses Flashvars to pass the value of the FLV. PReviously, it was four simple lines of code that pointed directly to the SWF)
Here was my process - I encoded the files with AE and Media Encoder to end up with Transparent FLV's. These, I then setup in Dreamweaver so I could copy the embed code. On my first attempt, it worked PERFECTLY. I was testing one particular flv, got the code and inserted it into the blog page with some special CSS to position it.
The movie played perfectly.
Then things got weird.
I was excited I had a solution, so I went to put another video on another page. No luck. The second page was playing the video from the first page. As if I had copied the same code, but I hadn't. I copied code that was 'pointing' to the new file, but for whatever reason, the new file would not play.
I did EVERYTHING. I deleted all the pages and strted fresh. I deleted the FLV's and reuploaded them. I created different folders and put each flv in it and created index.html files for each (assuming possibly there was a hardcoded element in the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf). I copied and pasted back and forth for nearly 6 hours.
Nothing. Each time I would copy and paste code into a blog page, it would simply pull the original video.
THEN....things got worse.
I pulled one video off of the server, and now NONE work. I can't get ANY videos to play. Worse, I still have the 'express install' link showing.
Ok, so here is what I am trying to figure out;
Does the NEW DW CS4 code somehow have control over the file that is called? Further, HOW can I get more than one FLV to play across a whole blog site.
Here is a link to one of the pages that HAS code but is calling NOTHING. And please know that I have left copies of the necessary files ALL over the server. So they are in the root, in the 'files' folder, in the talent folder and everywhere.
Is there a conflict flash hits when there are multiple FLV's being called? Is there a way to do this? Please help....
Thank you

Adobe Reader cannot play embedded Flash content

I don't know why, the Flash format was originally created by Macromedia, and then Adobe acquired the company, but the Adobe Reader cannot display Flash content.
My PDF file is here:
http://genifer.googlecode.com/files/agi-book.pdf
Scroll to page 37.
The original SWF file is here:
http://genifer.googlecode.com/files/unified-AND-OR.swf
which *can* be played on my Chrome browser.
But when I embedded the SWF file in the PDF, the result is unplayable.
A clue is: Adobe Reader asked me to download QuickTime to display media contents. So I downloaded QuickTime. But QuickTime nowadays has removed Flash support. Why did Adobe Reader ask me to download QuickTime to display Flash, when Adobe owns the Flash format?
I have also tried selecting other media players in the Reader's option box (eg, Windows Media, Windows built-in, Adobe Flash, etc) but none of them works.
I have also tried using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9. Same result.
It seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Adobe Reader most certainly CAN play embedded Flash content, but only if you embed it properly.
You're seeing a Quicktime warning because you're embedding the SWF as "legacy media" content - this is no longer supported for authoring and is disabled by default for playback.You should use Rich Media Annotations instead (embedding using the multimedia/flash tool in Acrobat 9 or Acrobat X).

Embeded Flash and Internet Explorer

When try and access a page I have created with internet
explorer composed of html with an embed .swf there is a white box
that one has to click to then access the normal functions of the
.swf. Is there any code to make it so this extra click to access
the embeded flash does not have to happen? It does not happen in
firefox or safari.

Oh god .. here we go again .. Obviously someone has been
living under a rock
or on a deserted island for a few months :)
This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid
infringing the
(stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control
that can interact
with the user.
If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything
to fix it,
except complain to the web master
Here is a link to find information on how to fix your website

locally.
i've uploaded all the files in the scripts folder and the swf
skin files.
But it still won't work server-side.
I did not have this issue with dreamweaver CS3 as i've found
that Dreameaver CS4 seems to
change how the code of how the .FLV is embedded
any ideas??
or is anyone else having this issue?
thanks
Jordan
here's is my current test page link with a sample flv video:
http://www.lambethdesktop.com/flashtest/index.html

Flash Gallery Template not working as expected

I am very new to Flash and barely know ActionScript. I have created a flash gallery using the in built template in Flash8, which works fine. The gallery forms part of my gallery page of a separate SWF flash site. I load the gallery using a loder component. Since the gallery navigation works by targeting the root folder, my site gets screwed up. The question is, how do i modify the ActionScript in the gallery.fla file (flash inbuilt template), so that once loaded into the main site, it doesnt target the root timeline, but targets its own timeline i.e. the gallery's own timeline. I hope i'm making sense?
Please see below for the code in the Flash Gallery. PS: I didnt write the code - its inbuilt into the template:
function updateFrame (inc) {
// send slides to new frame
newFrame = _level1._currentFrame + inc;
_level1.gotoAndStop(newFrame);
updateStatus();
if (_level1._currentFrame == 1) {
prevBtn.gotoAndStop(2);
} else {
prevBtn.gotoAndStop(1);
if (_level1._currentFrame == _level1._totalFrames) {
nextBtn.gotoAndStop(2);
} else {
nextBtn.gotoAndStop(1);
function updateStatus () {
_level1.statusField = _level1._currentFrame + " of " + _level1._totalFrames;
function autoplayInit () {
startTime = getTimer();
hideControls();
updateStatus();
function autoplay () {
if (autoplayStatus != 0) {
// get the current time and elapsed time
curTime = getTimer();
elapsedTime = curTime-startTime;
// update timer indicator
indicatorFrame = int(4/(delay/(elapsedTime/1000)));
indicator.gotoAndStop(indicatorFrame+1);
// if delay time if met, goto next photo
if (elapsedTime >= (delay*1000)) {
   if (_level1._currentframe == _level1._totalframes) {
    _level1.gotoAndStop(1);
   } else {
    _level1.nextFrame();
   autoplayInit();
function hideControls () {
nextBtn.gotoAndStop(2);
prevBtn.gotoAndStop(2);
updateFrame();
autoplayStatus = 0;

use this._lockroot=true in your template.

Using Flash Gallery from Photoshop in DreamweaverMX

I have created a web photo gallery within Photoshop CS2 using
a third party source which is Flash Gallery 1. This creates a .htm
index page and puts all the elements in appropriate folders
(wherever I tell it to). I am wanting to put this within an
existing web page without it bringing up a new window. Is that
possible? I have tried inserting the .htm and it doesn't work. I
have tried inserting the .swf that it also creates and it doesn't

htm page in a browser and they both work fine. I just can't figure
out how to put in into my web page. Can anybody help???

Flash Gallery Issues.

Hey guys,
I have a flash gallery that works all correctly. The only problem I have is when I go to load the site in the same browser for the second time it displays the last image within the gallery for all of the images. I know I need a reload script or something. I just want the flash gallery to load from the beginning just as the site did. I need this fixed really fast, if anyone could please help me I would greatly greatly appreciate it. Images Below Thank you guys so much.

http://www.dedikateddesign.com/testgallery.swf
Link to direct File so you can better see what I am meaning. Load the porfolio page, the images show correctly. Click on another link and then back to portfolio, the gallery loads the last image of the gallery over all the other images on the gallery.

Adding Music to Lightroom Flash Gallery

I would like to be able to add music.fla or music.swf files created in flash 8 to a published Lightroom Flash Gallery. Upon examination of the of the gallery.swf and the Index.html files I don't see where I can insert or embed the music files. Has anyone explored this possibility?
George

Don't know if this helps you at all. It's not LR of course.....
In CS2 Adobe added two Flash-based templates you can use for your online Web Photo Gallery. Even cooler is the fact that you can now add a background music track to one of these Flash galleries. Just follow these steps: First find the MP3 audio track you want to use as your background music and rename the file as "useraudio.mp3". Then open your Photoshop CS2 application folder and navigate to Presets>Web Photo Gallery. Inside that folder look for either Flash Gallery 1 or Flash Gallery 2. Depending on which gallery you chose within Photoshop, drag-and-drop your audio file into the corresponding folder. That's it! You've got background music.
