SWF in PDF stops playing after navigating away from page

I have a PDF ebook with SWF movies embedded each movie is a music track controller that plays a track from a soundtrack to the book.
I want readers to be able to play the tracks while they read the book.
This works fine in Acrobat. But in Digital Editions, as soon as I navigate away from the page showing the track controllers/SWF movies, the movie/track stops playing.
Is there any way around this? Perhaps there are technical limitations to a Flash-based app. at play here.

Arthur, this sounds like content you've created yes?
If it's content you're creating then I'll have to send you to Engineering via the Digital Publishing Center at
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishing/.
There's a feedback form on that page (we don't currently do any ebook dev support on this forum.. there might be a forum unique to that at some point in the future). It's not very clear, but if you send a dev question to that feedback form you should get an answer from engineering. This ONLY applies to questions about creating content for consumption in ADE 1.5.... (end user questions regarding ADE 1.5 still go through web case support at http://www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions/)

  • Get rid of the Walmart Gift Card Page!!!!! It ties up firefox, will not allow navigation away from page!

    I was doing a search and an add for a $1000 Walmart gift card pops up and won't allow you to quit firefox or close the page.
    Very annoying!!! Looks like a scam!!!!!

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Also, make sure you update to Firefox 16 to stay secure. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

  • Why does my iTunes stop playing after a certain amount of time?

    When I begin a Playlist in iTunes on my 2009, 24 in. display iMac, it will suddenly stop playing after a few songs. I have looked through
    every setting I can locate, but am unable to correct this problem. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    On the webite for the station. look for a Listen link for another type of player.  Many stations are going away from streams that iTunes can link to.  while you're on the website. look for a Contact Us llink and report your trouble.   They might not be aware there is trouble.
    Do a Get Info, go to first tab and Edit URL.. Copy and paste the stream URL here so others can test it.

  • Youtube video stops playing after 11 seconds

    Mac Pro / Mountain Lion 10.8.2 / Flash 11.4 - YouTube videos stop playing after 11 secs.  Only just started happening last week - around time when I installed latest Lion upgrade but this may be a red herring.  Tried uninstalling Flash and reinstalling with no change.  Checked/emptied cache.

    There are several topics with similar symptoms, but I don't think anybody has found an answer yet, as it only occurs on some few systems.
    What I would try if I encountered the same problem:
    try disable Hardware Acceleration (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891337)
    try update the graphics drivers (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765)

  • Can we stop user navigating away from Block in an Error condition?

    Hi all,
    I am writing validation code in custom library attached to an Oracle Form. Is there any way to stop
    the user from navigating away from a Data Block if there is a validation failure?
    Many Thanks,
    Prathima.

    it depends. some triggers fire, before validations are complete, e.g. when-button-pressed. there is also a difference between navigable and non-navigable buttons/items.
    better you check it out by putting messages inside your code.

  • TS1717 my music videos stop playing after 3 minutes

    my music videos stop playing after 3 mins it happens to them all they worked fine before I upgraded to the new software

    No there is no particular limit, especially one as short as 4 minutes in the Flash player or a Web page in general.
    The video file may have been corrupted before or during upload to server.
    Test the original video file on your local machine, does it play the entire length? is so, notice the file size.
    Compare that size to the file size of the video on the server... if they are the same, you might want to re-upload anyway.
    Your video file will also have a web address that specifies exactly where it is located on your server. Do a direct download and test the file to see if it is courrupt.
    It will have an address something like this:
    http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/chris_test/tombstone/video1.flv
    So download your file directly from the server and play on your local machine to see if it's longer than 4 min.
    Could it be that your Web host only allows certain size files (no videos over 4 min for example)?
    Best wishes,

  • Some songs stop playing after minute 1

    I recently purchased some songs from iTunes and the majority of them have this issue, they stop playing after minute 1 or 1:30.

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.
    BTW the tracks that cut short, did you preview each of those for the full minute or minute 30? There's a bit of me that thinks the previews and the short downloads might be related to each other.

  • "AU audio file player" stops playing after a few seconds

    Hi there,
    i use "AU audio file player" in my concert set up.
    It worked fine til yet, but now it just stops playing after a few seconds.
    The track is 3 minutes, but it stops suddenly.
    I tried to reload the tracks and tried loading the "AU audio fle player" into a new session,
    but it still stops playing in any of the sets.
    Any idea?
    Thank you very much, S

    Hi Susanna,
    I did not find a way to trigger it from the keyboard...
    So I decided the following: I made a short cut for QuicKeys which opens the AUAudioFilePlayer and starts the loop I need. A quick solution which works with just hitting one key on the computer and the loop player starts. This works pretty well with QuicKeys but not with MS, the problem: sometimes when I choose by double clicking the AUAudioFilePlayer a black window shows up and only the name is readable, nothing else. I have to close it, reopen it and then- perhaps- the AU shows up and I can push the play button. Do you now that problem?

  • Smart Playlists Stop Playing After Each Track

    After updating iTunes to version 10.0.1.22 my smart playlists stop playing after each track. All songs or Podcasts in my smart playlists are checked so they should be playing consecutively but they're not.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Make sure the little boxes to the left of the song names are checked. If you need to check all the songs in a single view at once, hold the CTRL key and check any one of the boxes.

  • Need Help Getting a Flash File to stop playing after 15 seconds

    I was sent 3 flash files at work, however they infinitely
    look and many places require that these stop playing after 15
    seconds. In addition to this, at the 15 second mark at the current
    frame rate, the spot is only 85% complete. I figure I can increase
    the fps but I can't get the spot to stop. The stop code is of
    little use. Any help? Thank!

    you can use setTimeout(yourfunction,15000) to call
    yourfunction after 15000 milliseconds. in yourfunction your can use
    yourMovieclip.stop().
