Video to Flash Intro

I made a 10 second video that I would like to put on my webpage as a flash intro but I don't know anything about flash. Is there an alternative or an easy way to do this?

Has anybody ever used one or recommend one. Preferably free. < </div>
You're on your own there. But if you find one you lie, please come back and let us know which one you used.
The buzz around Flash is still bigger than the reality as witnessed by your misunderstanding. it is NOT a univresal solution to anything and it comes with a heavy learning curve.
Flash is a super efficient visual technology that uses, when it can, the host computer to build images. This keeps the files really small. However, this trick only works with vector images. Video must be rasterized so the Flash version of any QT file is going to be about the same size. Flash has the advantage of offering universally available free players. QT and WMV are proprietary and the two owners have conflicting agendas about global domination. Adobe wants to rule the world, too, but Flash is free and will run on anything anywhere anytime.
Drop by adobe.com and spend a few days trying to figure it out.

Flash intro only loads sound, no video, no interface. Works fine in other browsers.

We are re-doing our website and cannot resolve a compatibility problem with Firefox on both Windows or Mac, and also tested through Adobe Browserlabs.
The problem: the Flash intro loads only sound; there should be videos playing full width of the browser frame and an interface to browse through the videos, mute the sound and press play/ pause.
Other browser on various platforms work fine (IE/ Safari/ Chrome on Windows XP,7 and MacOSX)
We've tried various user profiles, computers, systems and countries, but the site shows the same problem with firefox everywhere.
I assume it has to do with the coding of the site, would you be able to tell why it is not working?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, restart Safari. Try a video.
Extensions such as Incognito and YouTube5 will prevent Flash content from loading.
Your profile indicates are you running v10.6.6. If that's the case, there are updates available. Click your Apple menu (top left in your screen) then click Software Update...

Putting Flash Intros on my site?

I have Dreamweaver CS4 and I want to put a Flash intro on my
site that plays before getting to the home page, but I can't seem
to find any tutorials on it. Can somebody point me in the right
direction? I know how to embed a Flash video onto my pages, but I
don't know how to get one to be a separate piece. Thanks all!

>>The splash screen becomes the index
Yup!
And just for the record, when a prospective client demands a
splash page or
autoplay music I refuse to build the site. Not saying you or
anyone else
should do that.
There's an old joke about a man asking a woman if she would
sleep with him
for $1M. She says, "Absolutely; Yes!" He then asks, "Will you
sleep with me
for $10?". She replies vehemently, "Hell No! What do you
think I am?" To
which he replies, "We have already established that. Now we
are merely
negotiating the price."
To me, if I tell a client or prospect that auto play music or
a splash page
will be significantly counterproductive and they should not
even consider
either and then I go ahead and add either to the site, I'm
nothing more than
what that woman was.
You see I don't think my primary goal is to please my client;
that's my
secondary goal. My primary goal is to please my client's
prospective
clients/customers. Not surprisingly, when I am unencumbered
in pursuing my
primary goal I routinely accomplish that secondary goal.
That's just me. Not saying you should take that rigid
position, but you
might want to at least think about it. ;-)

Flash intro newbie

I don't know if this belongs in flash or dreamweaver, so I'm
posting it in both places. I have a quicktime movie (originally a
motion movie) that I converted into flash video in hopes of using
it as an intro to a webpage created with dreamweaver. It works
fine, but I cannot figure out how to make it go away after the
movie is done and leave behind the contents of the page. My
original thought was to put it in a layer and make the layer with
the flash movie invisible once the movie was done playing, but that
didn't work. I then tried adding the behavior go to URL and using
the URL of the page without the flash movie, but that didn't work,
either. Is there any way top use a flash movie in dreamweaver and
then make it go away? Is there a simpler way to accomplish using a
flash movie as an intro? Thank you so much for your help.

I might be wrong, but I think you have to build that in to
the flash
file itself.
But don't forget to add a skip intro link on your home page
because I
think it's fair to say that a lot of internet users find
flash intros
annoying. It's just another thing standing in the way of
getting the
information they're looking for.

Adding Video to Flash as Background

Hi!
I am not sure if this is possible. But I want to add a video to an intro of a website, however, I want to be able to write over the top of it. And I don't want the navbar (that usually goes with vid clips) to appear.
Is this possible?
Cheers

It might be possible but as you asked this question, I got one more to add up and that is, is it possible to have intro page in website and that page will not be crawl to search engine robots. And does page-load speed affects Page Rank as my flash website take 1 min approx to load. I read one Article on Page Load Speed Effects at Social Media Promotion blog.

How do i play my videos in flash file after moving SWF file to website?

Hello all,
I am having some problems showing my videos in flash after moving it anywhere besides my computer.
I published my flash file once as a exe. file and sent it to another computer, where it all worked but my videos, which didn't show up at all.
I also published them as SWF files, then put them up on my free website (where i don't have access to the ftp) and the videos still aren't there.
The videos will play fine in an SWF file on my computer, but i am assuming when they are away from the videos, they don't have a source to access them.
I also tried sending the videos along with the SWF files when sending to other computers and it still doesn't work.
I now have a free hosted website (with wix.com if that makes any difference) with my flash work on, but no videos. I even tried to embed a youtube video into the scenes the videos are meant to appear, and put the videos on youtube, then i discovered you can't put that sort of HTML into flash.
Does anyone know how to show the videos on these sort of website, or even better, how to keep them in original file when sending them, so they show on other computers.
Sorry if I've waffled but I'm trying to clear up my situation .
Any help would be super, many thanks,
Flasher87

i am using the website wix, so in order to put the swf file up you just click the "Upload SWF" button, so i don't know how i could put the videos along with the swf, the swf is just sat on the page once i upload it.
second, when using this type of website do you know how i'd go about giving the website the permissions to play flv files?
Thank you.

How can I import my html flash intro into Muse?

I created a flash intro using Tumult Hype.
I just designed a website in Adobe Muse and I'd like to insert my flash intro to be the first screen on my website. I'd also like to link it so that when i click "enter" it takes me to the home page of my site.
How can i do this? I've read numerous articles and forums on this problem and no one seems to have the solution.
Someone PLEASE HELP!

Use the code below... Upload your tumult file to your server as i don't think this will work locally. Insert an HTML object on your first page in Muse ( Home/Index.html ) and paste the code below in the object, change the URL in the code to point to your Tumult document. You may have to use an absolute path to other pages when you click the enter button for example http://www.yoursite.com/otherpage.html which will then take you to other pages in your muse document. Let me know if you run into issues...
Adding iframes to your site to display other site pages with embedded HTML
In addition to using embedded HTML to insert code you've pasted from a third-party website, you can also embed an entire web page within an iframe using the same method. For example, you can type a code snippet like this:
<iframe title="A Title for this Content" src="http://yoururlhere.com" width="900" height="500" style="border: 0;"></iframe>
In the code above, replace the text in the title="" and url="" with the desired external web page's title and URL. You can also customize the width and height of the iframe window to the desired values to fit your site's design.
Optionally, you can also add an attribute that ensures the iframe will not display a scrollbar by adding this to the opening iframe tag:
scrolling="no"
By choosing Object > Insert HTML, you can open a new HTML Code window and embed an iframe anywhere on your site and then set any URL (site address, such as www.google.com) to display a site that is live on the Internet inside it.
You can also use an iframe to embed animation, such as the HTML5 animations created in Adobe Edge. Find the name of the HTML file created by Adobe Edge and use that file name in your iframe's URL attribute:
<iframe src="Project-Header-r1v1.html" width="100%" height="100%" scrolling="no">
</iframe>

How to show a MPEG4/H.264 video in Flash in an HTML page?

Maybe my title isn't clear. I am hoping someone can shed some
light on the h264 use in flash.
Instead of displaying a progressive download .FLV video , I
am trying to have an MPEG4 /h.264 approx. - a 30meg video display
in flash in an .html page. Quicktime is easy to do, but Flash is my
goal.
I read several articles on h264 and flash 9, including this
adobe
H264 article but was hoping there might be an easier and maybe
quicker solution. I did try renaming the .mp4 extension to .flv in
dreamweaver but it did not display the video. (...unless it was
downloading the video completely before displaying...not sure)
There is a ton of sites, blogs and articles on h.264 and how
flash 9 will display it...but when it comes to how one might
actually have h.264 in flash on their own site...I am finding it
difficult to figure out.
Forgive my lack of action script and Flash knowledge...any
direction is appreciated.
Erick

...well I did follow that article on playing an h264/mpeg4
video in flash. It works well, but how would you add playback
controls?
FLVPlayback component only allows you to source an FLV video
not h264/mpeg4.
This is probably a simple as3 answer...but I am not
knowledgeable on as3 to know what code to add.
Any suggests or direction that I should look would be great.
In the meantime I am researching actionscript 3 to find and anwer.

Flash Intros on an iWeb site

I purchased a flash intro template off of templatemonster.com. I edited the flash intro in a trial version of Adobe Flash CS3. After I edited the template so that it had the wording I wanted I then did not know what to do to actually make it my flash intro. After I had edited it, it gave me .html, .swf and .fla files for the intro. The .html file and the .swf file actually play the intro, the .fla file does not.
After playing around for some time, I realized that the flash intro would not play because my index.html file directs the front page to be the "Welcome" page. After playing around for a bit, I changed the name of my flash intro .html file to "Welcome_.html"...the same file name as the front page. I uploaded the flash "Welcome_.html" file to the the server and BOOOOM! My flash intro plays however it is in the wrong position and does not link to the site. I believe the correct file is supposed to be the .swf version because it is centered correctly and includes buttons like "sound" and replay.
Anyways, I know I am far off with my jerry-rigging of the .html files, but does anybody out there know how to put a flash intro onto an iWeb site or how that would look on the server?

Drag the SWF file onto your welcome page in iWeb. If you don't want the control bar, uncheck it in the QuickTime inspector. Check autoplay and loop if your flash file is not set to autoplay and loop.
When you upload to the server the SWF file is in the Media folder.

Need help with coding for HTML5 Video with Flash fallback

Hello, need help with my coding in Dreamweaver CS5.5 for HTML5 video with Flash fallback. Not sure if the coding is correct. Do I need anything else Javascipt etc?

The reason you see a blank page is because it's trying to load the file that is pretty humungous and there is no preloader. So, you see a white screen till it complets loading.
Also, the reason why its loading a SWF file and not any of HTML5 type video is because your doctype declaration is XHTML1.0 and not HTML5.
Change the 1st line in your .html file from:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
to:
<!DOCTYPE html>
Then see if your HTML5 video types load with <video> tag.

How to make interactive video in Flash?

Hello,
We are trying to create an interactive video in Flash. Basically, we need to put this video in our game, and players should be able to pause/replay/play it.
I found some tutorial about this topic, but all of them were created more than 2 years ago. They all use FLV/F4V files.
But now, Adobe Media Encoder doesn't support exporting FLV file.
As what mentioned in this page:
removal of FLV and F4V export features from Adobe Media Encoder, After Effects, and Premiere Pro | After Effects regio…
Flash team seems recommend users to input mp4. video rather than FLA video.
So is that mean we can use mp4 file to do interactive video, adding Action Script on the importing mp4. video?
Thank you.

either use mp4 files or use an older ame.

Still can't watch videos with flash

I am a firefox user. In some sites, the videos require flash and windows media. I have both installed . but, there are still some videos I can't view and when I ask the site to test what software is missing, it says that I do NOT have the flash installed...
Last time it did work, I enabled/disabled some plugins, and then it suddenly did work - I just don't rememeber what exactly I did ... and it doesn't seem to work now.
HELP!!! thanks.

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
[[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
