Two Flash export errors

I've only recently started using Encore and am enjoying it so far.  The slide show feature appears to be a bit buggy, but the Flash export feature looked interesting so I gave that a try.  Creating the flash export was easy, but there were two errors in the code it generates.
In index.htm I had to edit the parts shown the bold in the line-
Original:
<div style="border: 4px solid #000; width: 640px; height: 480px;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" width="960" height="540" id="flashdvd" align="middle">
Changed:
<div style="border: 4px solid #000; width: 960px; height: 540px;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" width="960" height="540" id="flashdvd" align="middle">
I was exporting as a 960x540 video.  Before the change the video was displayed right of center.  After, it was centered.  In the preview of the template the video was centered.
Also, the three png files in the Sources folder had to be renamed to remove the space in the file name.  I was not able to upload those files to my web server.  I had to change the references to those files in the AuthoredContent.xml file.
Anyway, you may have the same problem, and maye the right people will see this and fix it.

Hey Neil,
Thanks for replying. When I author DVD's, I use the basic encoding standards you listed above.
In this case, since the output is not written media, I was encoding in a way that would give me the best possible results (in theory at least) when planning on flv being the final encoded output, where lowest possible file size with best possible quality is the goal (since it's home will be on the web, not a DVD).
As for my issue with the errors generated from the Export to Flash option, I have learned some things, and was able to successfully Export to Flash.
One thing is that apparently the Flash encoder that EncoreDVD CS3 uses is not the same as the Adobe Flash CS3 Video Encoder or whatever Flash encoding engine Premiere uses. Encore's Flash output settings are limited, and so are the results.
What I had to do was export my PP CS3 projects to Flash using Adobe Media Encoder and update the XML that Encore spits out accordingly to point to my newly encoded flv's, replacing the flv's that Encore created... not a big deal, but one extra step and little more waiting time.
Now, the results are stunning! And since I'm not comfortable in Flash CS3 or coding ActionScript, having Encore create the menu interface, with all the navigation and interactivity and such, for me was a big BIG plus!

  • Export error when exporting to Flash

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to export a 14 slide Keynote presentation to Flash. Every time I try it allows me to choose a place to save it, but then comes back with the message:
    Export Error
    The file format is invalid
    Nothing gets exported.
    Any ideas gratefully recieved.
    Thanks,

    Hi medicineball and welcome to our community
    You said:
    Really what good is this product if you can't export to
    Flash?
    Believe it or not, this product can actually be used quite
    satisfactorily without ever needing to export to Flash. I'm
    guessing you are of the camp that views Captivate as simply a
    "Flash add on" that is used only as a mechanism to move something
    into Flash for subsequent tweaking. While this is certainly
    possible, it was never the primary intent. Had that been the case,
    you would see much tighter integration between the products.
    Now before I instigate a long tirade about how this is Adobe
    and they are huge and should make all their products work
    seamlessly together, I'd like to point out that they are dealing
    with a product that has had at least four different owners. So the
    tight integration isn't there yet, but they are making strides.
    Sincerely... Rick

  • Export error: Writer not found

    Hello,
    I am using PPCS3 with Aspect HD.
    I am using the Cineform HD 30p preset.
    I keep getting an export error: writer not found
    when I try to export a short movie using two uncompressed .avi's I obtained from 3DS Max 2009.
    Any ideas what "Writer not found" means.
    Simon

    Have you installed anything CS4 at all? Even a public beta of Soundbooth or some other non-Premiere component?
    I never did find out what I installed that trashed .wmv export for me in Pr CS3 on my old XP system. Maybe it was the beta of Sb or maybe it was the free stand-alone Microsoft Windows Media Encoder.
    Anyway, a full uninstall and reinstall of CS3 will likely fix the problem, but I can't say for sure because I never got around to doing it. I used the MS Windows Media Encoder until I could load CS3 on my new system (dual-boot XP32 with Vista64).
    EDIT: All is well with .wmv export on the new system. No CS4 on XP32 and no WME there, either.

  • Illustrator crashes when opening Flash-exported SVG

    Illustrator (latest CC version) always crashes when I try to open a Flash-exported SVG. It doesn't matter if I try to open it directly or import to a blank document. Other SVGs open well. I've already disabled all non-essential Windows 7 services. Does anyone know a workaround?
    Thanks in advance.

    What do Windows services have to do with any of that? I've tried anything that could help at Entre em contato com o Atendimento ao cliente! Maybe you never had any trouble with Illustrator before... The whole thing is as simple as this: any software shouldn't crash while opening a file with incompatible data (it should warn and abort the operation)! And actually Illustrator opens every SVG file correctly, but those exported by Flash Professional. The file data should be correct, since any other SVG-compatible software can open those images. Any software, but Adobe Illustrator... You can see at Re: Is there a way to save out/export vector art from Flash CC to open as vector art in Illustrator CC? that Flash Professional's SVG export feature should allow a Flash-Illustrator workflow. It doesn't, at least on my system. I've described in few words the steps to reproduce the error: latest CC software, Windows 7 system, no matter any other service, export SVG from Flash (tried different options), open with Illustrator, unexpected crash. I haven't attached the files because the forum does not allow this. They're here: http://www.caritasinveritate.teo.br/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/1.svg and http://www.caritasinveritate.teo.br/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/transparencia1.svg

  • PDF Export Error (-50)

    Hi,
    We are getting an export error Internal Error (-50) when exporting to PDF on two user machines.  All other machines work fine and also if I log onto the workstation as an Administrator.
    Any ideas?
    Jacques

    Hi Jacques,
    All internal errors mean external resource not available. It is not B1 problem. You need to check PDF writer to see if you can print PDF files from those 2 clients.

  • Encore CS6 Flash Export problem, Grey screens

    Hi everyone,
    I am having a problem with my encore CS6 flash exports, they are not behaving as expected online (seems to be like a loading issue).
    I've tried exporting FLV and F4V and the problem is the same. The same project exported from CS5.5 does not produce this undesirable
    problem. It may be important to say that the project was started in CS5.5.
    I have a button that links to another menu, and I am using videos as 'transitions'. The videos are dynamic after effects compositions.
    When it's online, and you press the button it fills the canvas with a  'grey screen' before starting the video transition. This totally breaks
    the experience and feels like an authoring error. It would be important to note, that this screens only appear the first time you see the flash.
    Somehow the next time you press it doesnt show it.
    I would happily go back to CS5.5 but I started using auto-activate buttons that are only available on CS6 flash exports.
    Any ideas what has changed between this versions flash exports?
    Any help would be appreciated..
    Thanks in advance,
    Cris

    Encore CS6 6.0.2.004, IE9, Win7
    Simple project, DVD NTSC, One menu with one button. One timeline. Menu first play, button linked to timeline.
    Output flash with flv (and again with f4v - same results), No template, keep with flash swf rather than streaming.
    Open index.html locally, must manually enable active content. Menu opens, movie plays. No grey screen.
    Copy entire folder to USB, same result; USB plays on a different PC also.
    Upload to web site; same result.
    Am I doing soething differently from either of you? Are you using templates?
    Factors related to flash security (for local and probably USB playback) can be problems. Various server settings can be problems for on line.

  • Flash Exporter vs Adobe Media Exporter

    Can someone explain how After Effects chooses which exporter to use for FLVs?
    I have 3 different scenarios and 3 different exporters are showing up in After Effects. I would prefer to use the Flash exporter since that one seems to give us the best results.
    In CS2 on my PC when I do export FLV the Flash exporter shows up.
    http://www.geniusdv.com/weblog/archives/After%20Effects%20and%20Flash%20settings-thumb.gif
    My co-worker just installed CS3 and when he does this option he gets the new Flash Exporter. But he can't use it because it says for him to use the render Queue. When he uses the render Queue the Adobe Media Exporter is used.
    http://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/premiere/pro/export/images/vCS3_exportsettings-winmedia. gif
    We do not like the results that the Adobe Media Exporter gives even when using the same settings. I never liked using in Premiere because I always had bad results and it seemed to crash a lot.
    The last scenario is using CS3 on my MAC. When I do export FLV I am able to use the new Flash exporter. When going through the render queue I get the Adobe Media Exporter.
    The best option would be the render queue with the Flash Exporter.
    Can someone explain why there is not just one option? And why I can't set which one I want to use. We do have the Flash exporter installed on all three machines. Any help would be great!

    Thanks for the reply Mylenium. I really don't want to go into the problems I am having with the encoded files. I am really just trying to understand why there are 2 separate exporters. I have done some more digging and apparently the Flash Exporter (FLV) is a quicktime exporter. Which is the one we would prefer to use. We are having errors with this exporter and sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't work.
    We are mainly having difference in encode times and quality loss when using the Adobe Media Encoder. We are exporting projects that use screen shots (which is not what AE is for.) I do notice the difference in time when exporting video projects but I have not taken the time to compare the 2 apples to apples.
    Like I said I just want to understand why we are getting errors with the FLV exporter by QT.

  • Why "Export Error Codec Initialization Problem!" when I export using Adobe Media Encorder for FLV?

    I get "Export Error - Codec Initialization Problem!" when I try to export a project using Adobe Media Encoder as a Macromeida Flash Video.  Premiere Pro 2.0 goes through the rendering process but no file is created; just the Export Error message.  What does this mean, and what do I need to do to export a project as a FLV file?
    Thanks.

    Sounds weird...  You could try the standard fix for general unexplained behaviour in a document; export it to idml, open that, save as an Indesign file and try exporting again.  If that doesn't work try a few different presets, like smallest file size.  If that doesn't work try opening your image in Photoshop, resaving as a psd, placing that (delete your old one) and see if that helps.  Obviously do this on a copy....

  • Batch Syndication General export error.

    I am getting the following error message when I do a batch syndication.  This is not consistent, but happens about 50% of the time.
    Syndication Error.
    (-301) General export error.
    Any idea on what may be the cause. 
    Regards,
    Simon

    This is the info we got from SAP via OSS re this error ...
    Summary
    Symptom
    While using the Syndicator Batch  you are receiving general connection errors of the type (-301) General Export Error
    Other terms
    -301, batch syndicator
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The Syndicator Batch is running together with the Syndicator Server (batch and auto syndication inside mdss)
    OR
    The same repository is being processed by two batches
    OR
    You are syndicating from two different repositories using the same mdss
    Solution
    The issue is solved in SP04 Patch 2 Hotfix 1, however, if you do not need any ports syndication in parallel to the Syndicator Batch, then set the Auto Syndication parameter 'Auto Syndication Task Enabled' to 'False' in the mdss.ini and in this case you will not need to upgrade to the Hotfix. In case that you do need the ports syndication in parallel and you cannot carry out the upgrade, then you may use a workaround by increasing the Delay parameter in the mdss.ini to a much higher value i.e.3600 sec.

  • PPro 1.5 Exporting Error: Unknown Error

    I've been trying to export  a 32 minute video through media encoder to  make a DVD in Encore.  However I've been having "Export Error: Unknown Error" pop up when the file is 100% complete.  I've tried shutting my computer right down (not restarting but turned off), exporting the video as an avi and then reimporting it into both another sequence and an all-new session, but I still get the Unknown Error when I export.  Any ideas as too how to resolve this issue?

    Some of this is about other Adobe products, but worth a read
    As well as the below, right click the Encore icon and select Run as Administrator, which is NOT the same thing as running the computer with the Administrator account, and which fixes several "odd" problems... To create a two layer DVD (or a BluRay?), you MUST have Encore set to use the Run as Administrator option

  • Add Multi-Audio Track Ability to Flash Export

    When authoring DVDs and Blu-ray disks we have options to add alternate audio tracks which the user can select on the fly or we can add menu options for their selection. This ability is absent in flash exports from CS3.

    Not in iMovie as standard (only two alt. - Pic in Pic or Side by Side)
    Work around:
    • Create the MultiClip in QuickTime Player Pro - and import this - or -
    • Create first Pic in Pick as a new iMovie project

  • Adobe media encoder export error  "writer not found"

    When trying to export to wmv using adobe media encoder I get an export error of "writer not found". I did a search and found others having the same issue with no fix as far as I can see. Just wondering if anyone has any more iformation on this. I'm using Vista Ultimate and Premiere CS3.
    Thanks

    I registered the WMEncoderHelper.exe file with regserv, but I still get
    the "writer not found error". I wish I knew what codec it is trying to find and use.

  • Quicktime Export Error: "An output module stopped responding."

    I'm experiencing an odd export error whenever I use any Quicktime codecs:
    "After Effects error: An output module stopped responding. The file may be damaged or corrupted. You may need to restart After Effects."
    Similarly, Adobe Media Encoder hangs when outputting to Quicktime codecs. Neither program makes any progress at all before the hang occurs. At that point, I have to manually "end task" to exit. Also, it doesn't seem to matter what I try to export. In AME, for example, I can simply try to convert one video format to another and have it hang, so I don't think the problem is due to a problem with the source settings or effects. Also, I'm not attempting any multiprocessing since I don't really have enough RAM for that. Other output modules work, so I'm just exporting image sequences for the time being.
    System specs:
    Windows 7 64-bit
    Intel i7-2600k processor
    8 GB RAM
    GTX 580 GPU
    Software:
    Adobe CS6
    AE Plugins include Tracode Suite 12 and Optical Flares
    Quicktime 7.7.3
    Any thoughts on this? I've seen very few references to this error in other places, and not really found a solution that seems to apply to my situation. Thanks in advance for your help.
    Josh

    Thanks for setting me in the right direction. Clicking through to the 25 :: 101 error page (http://myleniumerrors.com/2013/01/06/25-101-4/) led me to a reference about other software, such as remote access software, using the same ports that AE needs for communication with its various processes. In my case, LogMeIn was the culprit. I had no idea that AE even used TCP for these types of operations, so that's very helpful to know.
    *EDIT*
    That worked temporarily, and now it doesn't work. I ran into a similar effect when I first disabled the Windows Firewall. But of course, as I type this and piddle around, it works again. It SEEMS like if I open AME and click into the output settings and scrub through the video preview, it makes everything work when I go to actually export. That's exactly the type of thing I would say is completely unrelated under normal circumstances, but at the moment all I know is that it is currently working and I don't want to test anything else until I finish the rendering I need to accomplish today. I'll work on it more later and post an update at that time.
    Thanks,

  • PE 7 memory and export errors

    In Premiere Elements ver 7, I have put together a 4 1/2 minute video made up of mpeg4 HD 720p mixed with regular avi digital footage. I am having memory errors and export errors when trying to render into a wmv or mpeg file.  When working on previous videos with non-HD footage, I didn't have these issues. I also recently put together a 1 minute mpeg4 HD 720p video rendered into HD 720p wmv file without any issues.
    1) memory errors - I got these when I was putting the video together and when rendering. After a lot of restarting the PC and reworking the video, I was able to finally complete in pre-render format.  It includes music soundtrack and transitions/effects.
    Here are my PC's specs:
    Dell Inspiron 530 with Intel Quad Core CPU 2.66Ghz processor
    4 GB RAM
    32 bit OS
    Windows Vista SP1
    When rendering, I get the "caution - low memory, save your work" message. I have since set the virtual memory paging file size per Technote kb404939.  This seems to have helped a little bit but still getting the message even though it continues to render....but then I get the export error message....
    2) Export errors - I first tried to render into a wmv HD 720p 30fps file. In the first 1 of 2 rendering phase, I got the "Export Error - failed to return a frame - cancelling operation" message. I checked for gaps in the timeline and there are none. Even though I do have some black space/dip to black sequences, I can "page down" through the entire movie without any pauses or hiccups with the CTI (Current Time Indicator).
    I then tried to render into a smaller wmv LAN speed file, and it went through the first 1 of 2 phases rendering (with the low memory message but it kept on going). Just after it started into the 2 of 2 rendering phase, I got an error message saying "Export Error - Unknown Error".
    What to do? I'm very frustrated at this point after a great deal of time invested in this video and troubleshooting the issues. Please help. Thanks.

    What are the sources of your video? What types of camcorders did this video come from?
    Premiere Elements supports AVCHD video, but does not work well with video from Flip and webbie camcorders, which use proprietary codecs. They can also use non-standard frame rates. Conversion is usually necessary before the files can be edited in Premiere Elements.
    And does your DV footage come from a miniDV camcorder captured over FireWire? And what project settings are you using in Premiere Elements.
    I would also not recommend mixing HD and DV footage in the same project. This could also be contributing to your problems.
    I also recommend you visit Windows Update and manually download any (even non-critical) updates. Vista should be at least on SP2. You may also want to download the latest version of Quicktime.
