Video Control Functions

I've read several threads from different sites concerning the video controls on published projects out of Captivate 4. I am also having the problem of not being able to FF/RW from the video controls once the project is published. Has there been a solution?

You do all this while still in PP.

Video Control Bar in Flash Displays on HD but Not From Webserver

I am using Flash Pro 8 - putting FLV files in SWF files using
Flash Pro 8 and then "publishing" to Html and SWF to a location on
my hard drive.
When I display the webpage from my Hard Drive from where ever
on my hard drive I initially published to from Flash 8 Pro -
everything works fine - videos play and video control bar shows and
works.
When I publish this website to web server the video displays
and plays but NO Video Controller Bar (at bottom of the video)
shows at all.
Symptom: when I make an Html, SWF and FLA file into a folder
on my hard drive and display them in the browser the video control
bar shows. When I copy those three files into the hard drive
website in FrontPage, the video shows but the video control bar
does not.
So, I re-made the Html, SWF, and FLA files and put them
directly into the FrontPage website (on my hard drive) then
everything works fine when I use broswer (IE 6 or Firefox). z
But, when I publish the hard drive website to the remote
website hosting company, the video control bar disappears -
everything else works fine (video shows OK just no video controller
bar.)
My guess is that the SWF file has a non-relative URL
reference concerning the video control bar and when the three files
(Html, SWF and FLA) are moved to new location then that
non-relative address rears its head.
I should NOT publish from Flash 8 Pro directly to remote
webserver as it has FrontPage Extensions and does not like to talk
to FTP changes to website not coming from FrontPage client.
is my guess right? What to do?????

1. When I encoded the video in flash I selected one of the
pre-packaged control bars (so the user can control basic
functions). I then published an HTML and a .swf. The HTML works
perfectly however when I use Dreamweaver to insert the .swf it does
not carry over the control bar. I have tried pulling over the
control bar .swf and placing it under the video file but a HUGE
object is imported with a bunch of controls that do not work (bunch
of controls = play/pause/etc).
make sure the component skin is uploaded in same directory as
swf, movie, html
quote:
The second issue is this; the user still has to click once on
the video to use the controls... does anyone know what I am doing
wrong on the video file?

Hi,
I'm working from the Web UI. This is BSP. Here I add 2 Methods (GET_PDF and SEND_MAIL).
The GET_PDF gets all data for the form and then sends the FORMOUTPUT to the SEND_MAIL method.

Remove Video Controls and add Replay button on page

Hello,
I am trying to create a page in Adobe Edge that loads a video without any controls (play, slider bar, volume, full screen) and then displays a replay button after the video finishes which will start it from the beginning.
Currently I am able to load the video file and have it play to the end and stop, but I can't seem to get a replay button working. I also can't find a way to disable controls on the video so they do not show.
Here is the code I am using to load the video:
// insert code to be run when the composition is fully loaded here
$("#Stage").css("margin","auto")
sym.stop();
// original video play code starts here
// create a text object called vid;
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls='none'>" +
   "<source src='video.mp4' type='video/mp4' />" +
   "<source src='video.webm' type='video/webm' />" +
   "<source src='video.ogv' type='video/ogg' />" +
   "This browser is not compatible with HTML 5" +
"</video>"
sym.$("replay_btn").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "top":"-265", "left":"7", "opacity":"1"}, 0);
// stage symbol lookup, and append the above vid object to it;
// in other words, get the div called 'vcontainer' and attach the video control to it;
sym.$("vContainer").append(vid);
// additional options for the video object
vid.attr('autoplay', 'autoplay');
vid.attr('preload','auto');
vid.attr('controls', 'none');
// End original code
// this is the insert for the action after the video ends
$(vid).bind("ended", function () {
sym.$("vContainer").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "left":"0", "opacity":"0"}, 0);
sym.$("replay_btn").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "top":"394", "left":"19", "opacity":"1"}, 0);
$("#Stage").on('click','#replay_btn',function(){
vid.pause();
vid.currentTime = '0';
vid.play();
sym.$("vContainer").stop().animate({"size":"absolute", "top":"133", "left":"0", "opacity":"1"}, 0);
vid.removeAttribute("controls");
As you can see, I tried a few ways of disabling the controls, and I also tried adding the replay function to the button itself, but neither of those worked. Any advice or information on controlling the video control display and replay function in Adobe Edge would be very helpful.
Thanks!

In case anyone is interested in the replay button, I was able to find code that worked:
var myVideo = document.getElementById("activeVideo");
myVideo.currentTime = 0;
myVideo.play();
This is executed when the replay button is clicked. Just be sure to set the video in question's ID to "activeVideo".
I am still unable to turn off the controls on the video. It seems like some of the code I have tried should work, but I haven't had success yet.
I've tried all of the following:
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls='none'>"
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls='0'>"
var vid = $("<video width='980' height='300' controls=''>"
vid.attr('controls', 'none');
vid.attr('controls', '0');
vid.attr('controls', '');
But nothing has worked so far. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

FLV video controls lock up

Hi there. I'm creating a website in Flash CS3. The FLV video
in the center of the page utilizes one of the stock video control
panels in the video encoding process
(SkinUnderPlayStopSeekMuteVol.swf) . Upon testing the movie, both
in Flash and uploaded on my server, the controls work fine for
about 10 seconds then seize up and stop being functional. The page
is simple as can be. 1 frame long, a couple pieces of text, a
static background and the FLV in the middle. Any ideas on why the
control panel freezes up?

Have you tested on more than one machine? Perhaps you could
post a url and we can see if it's a machine issue? I've never had
an flv cause a lockup, I'd be interested in seeing this.

QuickTime Pro Video Controls

I have upgraded to QuickTime Pro but the video controls in "A/V Controls" are not functioning. Solutions? Thanks.

Are you saying that even if I can display the A/V control panel, if the controls are not highlighted for me to adjust brightness, etc , its because of my graphics card?

CP5.5 - How do you get video controls on your inserted video?

I have an AVI file I inserted onto a slide in CP5.5.
How do I get controls on the embedded AVI file (converted using the Adoble media encoder) so that the person going through my CBT has control over watching the video?

Technically, Captivate should be the video controls. You can allow certain functions for the viewer using the Skin Editor. If you want to be able to slide the playbar from beginning to end without encountering any other elements, just put the video into its own slide.

Video control buttons not working

I have an embedded video in an Interactive SWF project I am working on and the video control buttons I have built do not work. Under the buttons panel, I selected "Video" and then used all the various control options available to create a control panel for my video. It looks great, but none of the buttons work. My video file shows up in the appropriate drop down menu and I am 100% sure I have done everything correct, but the buttons do not work. The video is a SWF file, is that the problem? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi
As far as I know Toshiba controls utility must be preinstalled if you want to have proper functionality. Check this on your unit.

How do you add visual video controls to widget video in ibooks author?

How do you add video controls to video using ibooks author?

I have the same question as VideoImage. I would like the controls to appear in some of my videos so that the reader can speed them up or slow them down. This would save me having to run them through iMovie at 4X say and saving them that way. As far as I can see, the video fast forward, fast reverse, go to end, go to beginning controls only appear in the Widget inspector. What is their purpose then?

Facebook Video says Firefox "is not compatible, therefore no video Chat function.

Upgraded Windows 8 to 8.1. Since then the Video chat function does not appear as a selection when wanting to video with a person. Message says that, "the browser is incompatible". The video function worked fine in version 8. As I remember, Facebook uses the Skype video program. Is there any help for this issue. I am not the only one having this problem.

This sounds to me like Facebook is checking what version of Windows your are running, and does not yet recognize Windows 8.1 as an upgrade to Windows. This is kind of disappointing, first because it hasn't been a secret that Windows 8.1 is coming, and second because filtering by OS like this is kind of a bad practice.
Anyways, this is likely not an issue directly with Firefox. As a work around int he short term, you could cheat and change your user agent to tell Facebook you are on Windows 8 instead of Windows 8.1 with an addon like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-overrider/

IPad Videos touchscreen unresponsive to show video controls

Hello,
I've searched the archives thoroughly on this one and have found others with the same problem, but no solution. When using the Videos app, after a video has been playing for more than a couple of seconds the touchscreen becomes completely unresponsive, and I cannot bring up the video controls (pause, etc.) The only option I have at this point is the home button.
Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution?
BTW my iOS version is 3.2.1.
Thanks!

Last night I downloaded flipboard and I messed up the window order (prompt should have been active but the app behind the alert prompt was actually active, really strange) and i count not use the touchscreen at all even when I left the app. I toggled the screen and it all came back.

OS 10.3.9 and QT Pro 7 = no video controls

I went against my normal behavior and obeyed when the computer said to upgrade from QuicktimePro 6 to Quicktime 7.0. Then discovered I had to pay another $30 to make it be the Pro version But no video controls are there - apparently I must first buy various upgrades, like a new computer, it sounds like from the forums. Video controls are why I originally bought Quicktime Pro. I could have gone back to v.6 from 7.0, but not if I'm as high as 7.1.3 (I am). At first I thought I could go back to 6 Pro and use the Pro 7 license for the husband's WindowsXP upstairs. You can't even use the license key in Windows, though.
I think this is outrageous. Does Apple know how angry people get when they feel tricked? Most people don't have money to keep buying lots of computer stuff. Or want to be eternally tinkering.
Is there a (preferably free) program that will brighten a .mov, .mpeg-2, .mp4...or adjust contrast? I couldn't make mpeg streamclip do it yesterday. Oh, I did try exporting .mov to .mov to make those adjustments, and the result was a bad degradation.
mac power pc g4 cube 450 mhz 896MB sdram Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I didn't miss having Quicktime 7 for 2 years untill I encountered a video that wouldn't play without it, as I recall. I was making a lot of videos and wanted to try new features, as well.
Yes - I thought I would register with the same registration number I had before. Why worry if Installation says older Pro versions won't work - wouldn't the new one be all that and better?
The info page http://www.apple.com/quicktime/player/mac.html says you'll have the a/v extra features if you have Tiger and a graphics card. I thought the other way to have the features would be to get the Pro version, like it worked for Quicktime 6. Bad assumption. Do the auto-updates with checkboxes that suddenly appear on our screens even send us to that info page?
For simpletons (we are legion) they could say for instance "your computer may not have enough power for the free Quicktime 7 a/v features or smooth streaming video (apparently) etc, even if you're running Tiger"......Quicktime 7 is simply labeled, in Versiontracker for instance, as designed for system 10.3.9 and up.
I didn't mind paying the $30 for QT7Pro version, but was surprised that I ended up with less useful everyday features than I'd had. I felt tricked, but I don't read slowly and carefully enough, and I know Apple wasn't trying to trick me, just push me toward their store.
fflynn - thanks for the idea. It sounds brilliant. Setting up a separate volume - not sure what that is - sounds scary, but I'll learn today.

Can you put Video Controls on an .flv video?

I have an .flv file in my .fla file. However, when I play the movie, it simply plays the movie along the timeline. Is there a way to put video controls on this file? Or do I need to use the videoPlayback option?
If I do need to use the videoPlayback option, how do I make sure that the video always work, even if I move it to a different computer (because the references to the movie will change)?
Thank you very much in advanced.

Hi Ned,
Thank you for your reply!
I guess I mean that when I specify the path to my flv file and I export the swf file, the swf won't play the flv video if I move the swf file to another computer. Does that make sense?
Thank you for the answer though, I will use FLVPlayback!
