Video from after effects doesn't launch after publishing flash catalyst project

I created a website in flash catalyst. I used a video that i made in after affects as the intro to the site. When I run the project in the flash catalyst everything works fine, but when I publish it for deploying to the web and run the .swf file nothing happens. Does anyone knows what can be the problem?

Hi Kirill.
You can't see the video because your'e running the .swf generated for Deploy-to-web folder. You have to upload the Deploy-to-web folder content to your web server and it will run fine. (same happened to me once)
You can only see the intro video in your machine by clicking in the .swf in the Run Local folder.
Its happen because the video you've created is not embeded in the main.swf.
Cheers.

Using Adobe Media Encoder to create H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV videos from After Effects - 6/23/14

Very disappointed with this choice. I will definitely be seeking to uninstall this version and go back a version or two. Two many extra steps to export an mp4 now. And now we also have to wait longer for a mp4 to render and can't take advantage of the machine's hardware? You guys fighting mp4 as a standard, forcing us to an additional product, or what? I'll be sharing my extreme disappoint with this 'upgrade' with the rest of the developers at work and who just had it installed. I'm not seeing this being too popular opn social media either. Seems like you only did what was best for you.Thanks for showing us who's boss.

Not necessarily. You can render an intermediate codec with AE's render queue (thus using all of AE's power to render) and then drop that file into the Adobe Media Encoder.
This was the workflow I've always used - even when AE could encode with MP4. Why? Well, because AE sucked at MP4 encoding. You couldn't even do multipass endoding with it!
This is a useful workflow in a few ways:
1. You have an archive-quality file to come back to in the future.
2. You can use AE's full power to render.
3. You can use AME's superior encoding capabilities.
4. You can tweak your compression settings and try various encoding parameters to improve the quality while decreasing the bitrate of your product WITHOUT having to re-render the AE comp every time you try since you're working off of the intermediate file. I mean, imagine a comp with several 3d layers, depth of field, shadows from multiple lights, and 250,000 particles from Particular. What if you made an MP4 and then the client needed a smaller file size or the MP4 you made was too heavily compressed and you needed higher quality? I don't know about you, but I'd much rather only render that 18-hour monster once.
This workflow actually saves time for many people.
And, in any workflow, this produces a better product.
Again, this is what I did even when AE could encode MP4's.

They aren't fighting MP4 as a standard, in fact, when Adobe folks pop in here and answer questions, that's often their recommendation for delivery codec.

Listen, I understand your frustration. Knocking out a quick compressed file from AE for client review is handy.
However, maintaining the h.264 encoding in AE took up development time. There are only so many person-hours per week for the (relatively tiny) AE team to spend on building each version of AE.
I never liked AE's h.264 encoding - AME has always done a superior job. Since we have AME to do our encoding, I would rather the AE team focus their effort on improving AE as a compositing and motion graphics tool rather than as an encoding tool.
Again, I get the frustration. I can see where it feels like they are doing what's good for them and not us, but I think, in the long run, this way is better for us. Right now, the majority of the AE team is working on making AE faster to work with and faster to render. The sooner we get a relatively bug-free version of that, the better! (Especially for folks on Mac OSX Yosemite who can't RAM preview smoothly in any version of AE).
And at least the After Effects team has been very transparent about things - for example, this blog post talks about their reasoning: using Adobe Media Encoder to create H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV videos from After Effects

How do I export a video from After Effects CC to an iPhone? I'm using a PC.

How do I export a video from After Effects CC to an iPhone? I'm using a PC.

Short answer, there is no simple "export to iPhone", but if you just want to have a movie that you can watch on you iPhone, just send yourself an attachment via email (other than .avi) and save it to your phone.
You can also use dropbox as an option.
With an app, you could mount your iPhone as an external drive. (check out iExplorer)
Also: check AME for h264 variations before you send it to yourself. There are presets for iPhone compression.

Unable to access external video file after publishing in html5

I am trying to publish a project that contains links to external files (.mp4 videos). After publishing, I get an path error message when I try to run the videos after publishing. The references to the videos are by name without any paths specified.
When I published the file the videos reside in the same folder as the captivate project file.
The instructions say copy the files to the output folder after I publish as html5.
What I did was extract the zip folder
Place the videos in the parent folder after extraction.
Ran the project. It runs except for the video execution.
There are a number of folders when the zip file is extracted.
Am I placing the videos in the right folder?

I personally prefer to get my files up on the server and link directly to them in Captivate.
Are you putting your's in the root folder of your project? eg. /projectname/... instead of/projectname/callees/ ?

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

What are the best settings to export a video and get best quality(high) in full hd 1080 ? in 4k ? and what would be the best setting to export animations/logo/intro and get best quality ?
Thank you very much.

Thanks for reply !
I used until now quicktime in H264 codec was that OK ?
two more questions :

The video from my camera doesn't appear in the iMovie monito

Hi,
I'm working imovie 5.0.2 (111) and i just got a new sony DCR-PC55.
I'm trying to import video from my camera and The video doesn't appear in the iMovie monitor. my camera set to VTR mode and i'm connected with FireWire cable as always.
PLEASE HELP!!!!

I have found a solution. A google search of "iMovie HD problems" turned up this link
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/vt3/10228
Seemed weird but it worked. Basically it said it is a Core Audio problem that can be cured by opening Garageband and playing a few notes with the keyboard window. I had to do this a few times but eventually iMovie import worked. I even left Garageband open and switched back and forth between it and iMovie. I am next going to open the quicktime video of the iPod announcement from earlier this week as I was having problems getting any audio with the video when I used quicktime.
Hope this is helpful. I am importing video footage as I type this.

When diagnosing a failed render the first thing you should look for is the difference between the failed project and one that is successful. What is different? What changed?
Before we can get any idea of why these renders are failing we need to know the encoding settings and the type of source footage. Encoding Failed does not tell us anything useful in diagnosing the problem. If your AE project is using effects or footage that is clogging up memory or has some other problem then we should know about your AE comp as well. That means we need to know what version of AE you are using, what effects are applied, and anything else that is different in the project that fails and a simple project that does not.

Purchased video from iTunes and doesn't play

I downloaded it from iTunes. Then when it showed up it had a cloud next to it. I clicked and it went to download again, so I stopped it. I went to videos and it and it was the so i started playing it and stopped it figured i was good to go. Went on a trip 2 days later on the plane with no wi if and went to watch it and nothing. What a disappointment , as the reason I got this was to watch movies without being connected.
I'm new at this so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Are you sure the movie downloaded completely? If you buy a video on iTunes you so not need WiFi as long as you have allowed it to fully download. That cloud you saw was telling you that it was avaliable on iCloud if you accidently delete it off your iPad. Try going to the Purchaces tab in iTunes and re-downloading it, ensuring that it downloads completely.
If you still have troubles after downloading it again, try accessing iTunes on your computer and downloading your movie there (iTunes won't charge you twice if you've bought it). After it's downloaded to your computer, sync your iPad and try it again.
Hope this helps!

Cannot get video images after update flash player

My flash player is playing the audio portion but no video (just a black screen)
I have a new Win7 64 bit comp. using 32 bit Internet Explorer. I have flash version WIN 10.2.152.32 installed. I uninstalled using the adobe uninstaller, restarted between each step as admin (don't know if it matters but I am the only user listed with admin rights but I get the standard user account screen). I then manually installed the new flash player as admin. verified which version, verified all Explorer settings-trusted sites & internet zones-,(7 times now) I have checked the add ons and I am enabled everywhere I'm supposed to be,I never received any errors, nothing was open during installation and still black screen! even tried to edit the registry (I don't have the line listed by the adobe post on flash killer). I run norton and have checked it is not blocking flash player or active X controls. I am completely at a loss for what to do next? HELP!

Hi frustratedfrequently
So, after all this time, this was the problem. Glad you found this thread:-) I wish you would have come to the Flash Forum before
!! Better late than never.
You can Uncheck that H.A. either way, as long as it's Flash content.
I appreciate your comments more than you know:-)

16:9 video sides cut off when exported from After Effects

When I export a 16:9 video from After Effects, the sides are cut off in the exported clip. I've tried different export settings and and my composition settings are correct, from what I can tell. Does anyone know why this could be happening?
Thanks!

and my composition settings are correct, from what I can tell.
But are they really? We cannot know, because you don't say anything about your exact render settings and comp settings, which is what is required here. You could be using an unsuitable CoDec or even crop your output inadvertently by using a specific output module setting....

Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

Automatic importing of videos from iphoto killing me!

hello there folks,
I recently purchased an imac and am having problems in imovie. When I open the application, it automatically looks for videos to import from my iphoto library and it is killing me! I have hundreds of iphoto videos and it just sits there looking for hours with the spinning icon in the events window and I cannot do anything else. I have gone to the preferences but cannot find a way for it not to import videos from iphoto automatically when I launch the app. I do not need my iphoto videos in my events library and would prefer to do it manually. Is there anyway to stop this? Is this common or does my machine have a problemo?
thanks so much. I even left it overnight and it is just sitting there looking for video like a drooling zombie.

iMovie will automatically scan and generate thumbnails for any movies you have added to iPhoto upon launch. If you don't want it to go through that cycle (which should only happen when you add new movies, not every time you launch), remove the movies from iPhoto.
You can easily remove all the movies from iPhoto by doing the following:
1.) Launch iPhoto
2.) Go to File > New Smart Album
3.) Set the Smart Album to use the following parameters: "Photo" "is" "Movie"
__This will gather all the movies into one place
4.) Make a new folder on the desktop
5.) Drag all the movies from the Smart Album you created to the folder on the desktop. This will copy them out of iPhoto.
6.) Highlight all the movies in the smart album and press command + option + delete.
__This will delete all the movies.
__Now you can open iMovie and it will not have any iPhoto videos to index.
__In the future when you import movies to iPhoto, immediately drag them out and delete them to avoid this behavior in the future.
Hope that helps.

FLV after publishing issue

All of the students in my class are having the same issue with our embedded videos. We are creating tutorials in Captivate and many of us have embedded video. After publishing the captivate file we are getting this connection issue. Our instructor is saying that it is some sort of security issue? When opening initially we are getting a "flash has stopped a potentially unsafe" blah blah blah. She had to go to global settings and then always enable but it isn't working every time. Hoping to find out more details so our class can make sure we're embedding video correctly since so many of us are having the issue. Thanks in advance. Here's a screen capture.
