What do i have to do to avoid "loading flash" when embedding video in pdf?

I can embed h.264 video in pdf via acrobat pro or inDesign.
However, there's always a moment of waiting, Acrobat Background color flashes up,
before the movie is finally loaded and played back.
I have seen Tutorials where this doesn't occur,
but no difference seeable from what i do.
Any ideas how to avoid this behaviour that occurs however i embed the video.
Second problem: When i play the mebedded video in the full size of the presentation
it kind of gets stuck on the slide. You have to hit the arrow button several times
until at some point it actually advances to a random slide further down the presentation.
My computer is very powerfull and i use the newest InDesign CC and Acrobat XI.
I read all the help and i do what Adobe says i should do.
Is it possible that Adobe just can't handle Video in PDF on a professional level??
Any hints on how to make this look right is appreciated!
best
Stefan

Adobe's promotion of Rich Media in PDF has reduced of late, it's no longer a headline feature for the Acrobat team (though the Frame guys seem addicted to it). Flash within "documents" is a legacy concept - sorry but that's just how it is. More and more people are consuming documents on devices or apps which cannot and will never support Flash/JavaScript/etc. that it's ruining the core principle of PDF - namely that a page looks the same to everyone.
Adobe's decision is that media-enabled interactive files (called "publications", not documents) are now the domain of HTML5 (Edge, Muse, etc) or native apps (DPS). That's where the development is being concentrated.

  • I have an HP Pavilion p7xt that "flashes" when playing Solitaire. Longer I play it, slower it gets.

    I have an HP Pavilion p7xt that "flashes" when playing Windows Solitaire. The longer I play it, the slower it gets. It's done this almost since I bought it in January. Any ideas if this is a serious problem for the computer as a whole, or just a quirk in the game? Thanks.

    The Solitaire game that I use, by the way, is the standard Windows 7 Home Premium version.
    A couple of things happen. The whole screen goes dark for much less than a second, several times. The Solitaire game itself slows down, and clicking on a card may take two or three clicks to make it respond, while down below, the Solitaire icon on the pinned toolbar (I can't remember what MS calls it) keeps "bouncing" sideways, sometimes as many as seven or eight times as it looks like it's trying to "catch up."
    Sorry that it's a little hard to describe. Thanks

  • I have some web pages that loaded completely when using 3G but partially loaded using Wifi.

    I have some web pages that loaded completely when using 3G but partially loaded (only text without any images ) using Wifi. Is it a site specific issue?

    Can you rule out the NoScript extension as a cause of the issues on those sites? Even if you allow the main site to run scripts, often a website will spread its content over additional servers, so you may need to visit the "S" button menu a second or third time to get full functionality. (Over time, you'll recognize some the servers as being for ads, tracking, or sharing buttons and you can just let those parts of the page not work.)

  • What are you supposed to do instead of Adobe flash when you hit a site that requires it while using iphone?

    New to iphone and first time using the web I get a message that I can't view a page because Apple blocks Adobe Flash. There seems to be some big story behind this, but what are you supposed to do to view those sites? Sorry if there is an obvious answer somewhere but I'm muddling my way through all of this!
    Thanks,

    Nothing unless they have an HTML only option you can click on the bottom of the page. However a page that requires flash only is most likely that of a company or business with heavy marketing content. Most websites with useful content either don't base their entire homepage on flash or have a mobile version for smartphones. So if you're visiting company or movie websites just do it on your computer. Apple and now adobe considers that the battery hit for flash animations is not worth it for phones. Most flash content is pure advertising rubbish anyway. I always install Adblock on all my browsers and barely see any flash except for videos and websites where the flash is not advertising.

  • Any feature or way to have second firefox window blink or flash when a new chat message is received?

    I can't seem to find any add on or settings for Firefox 13 that will cause my support chat's to either blink or flash when the tab or second window receives a new message the way that IE automatically does it.
    Any help is appreciated!

    I'm not sure what chat sites you're referring to, but I think this is a case where app tabs might help. They highlight when there is a change. For more information, visit https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/app-tabs-keep-favorite-websites-open

  • When purchased, my imac would load pages very quickly.  Now, the pages seem to take much longer to load and when watching video or streaming, it often stops to catch up or rebuffer.  What do I do to speed things up?

    When I purchased my iMac last month the pages would load quickly when using the internet browser.  Now it takes much longer to load the pages and when I watch a video it pauses to catch up or is rebuffering the streaming.  What can I do to speed up my browser?

  • I need an answer from a person. What do I have to do to get Adobe Flash?

    I am not computer savvy and I am getting frustrated because the reason I downloaded firefox was to get Adobe Flash. Argggg!
    What can you do to help me get it? I am caught in the endless loop of computer answers and I need a live person to tell me what to do.

    You can just look up Adobe or AdobeFlashPlayer. Just make sure it's from official Adobe site. I'm pretty new at personal computing, too. So much to learn! Don't get too frustrated!

  • How to avoid screen flash when access many cells in matrix?

    Hi,
    I need to do some automation in the matrix, I need access some cells one by one and assign value to some cells too. When this action only touch 1-2 cells, then the screen flash is acceptable, but if too many cells touched like more than 5, then the matrix flashing become pretty ugly. My question is can this flash be avoided?
    Thanks!

  • How to avoid water damage when installing invisible shield

    Just wondering what you have to do to avoid water damage when installing Zagg invisible shield? What precautions should I take so that I do not damage the iPhone when installing Zagg Invisible shield?
    Thanks and I look forward to your replies.
    ...B

    Hi BGmail,
    I would stay away from invisible shield by zagg or similar products. I tried it, waste of £15, could have got myself a dock stand for my phone for that ****!! The problem with IS(invisible shield) is that the screen protector has a rubber feel which makes it annoying when swiping your finger on it + it's not scratch proof at all!! Mine scratched 2 days after the installation so badly that I had to remove it. The back it's hard to apply, does not cover everything you'd like to, also a dust trap that could get between tha film and the phone causing it to scratch, some people reporting the film going yellow after a while(on white iPhones).
    What I think of IS: A poor american product heavily/aggressive advertised!! Mine is off, using a hard clear plastic shell and a good screen protector, might look bulky but it's safe, only using the shell while at work, the iPhone is pretty tough, don't forget.
    Your choice... Good luck !!

  • ¿What I have to do to avoid or prevent iTunes to auto configurate or autoselect as default media player each time I open it or connect my iPod?.

    Hello,
    For years I use in my computer Windows Media Player and/or Media Player Classic to play my music and video files and I know quite well all their operation options. My problem is that since I install the iTunes program, mainly for servicing my iPod Touch, every time I connect my iPod to the PC or open iTunes, the iTunes program without any warning or authorization auto configurate as default media player overriding my Windows and Classic Media players, so each time  I have to open iTunes and go to the Advanced Preferences Menu and unselect the option " Use iTunes as the default audio application" so to be able to use my favorite media players.
    My question is: ¿What I have to do to avoid or prevent iTunes to auto configurate or autoselect as default media player or override my favorite media players, each time I open it or connect my iPod?
    Plese your help,
    Regards,
    Pabl

    Hello BPeery,

  • What if I have 2 firefox sync accounts?

    What if I have 2 separate firefox sync accounts from different computers? If I log out of one and try to log on the other on the same computer, it says it will merge the 2. How does that work?

    Hi mmqb817,
    This means that the profile that you are attaching to the second account will be merged with the profile that you are logging into. If you wish to maintain two different accounts, to avoid this, you may need to create a new profile.
    All the selected synced parts of the profile (ie. passwords, bookmarks) will be merged in the cloud then sync down to the newly attached profile.

  • I replaced my iPhone with a Galaxy 5 and am not receiving all of my text messages. The sales person told me to remove my phone number from iTunes to stop this from happening. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages?

    I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?

    You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

  • HT1893 After installing Mac OSX Snow Leopart 10.6.3 my HP Photosmart C5500 won't scan to computer.  The printer is working. What do I have to do to be able to scan again?

    After installing Mac OSX Snow Leopart 10.6.3 my HP Photosmart C5500 won't scan to computer.  The printer is working. What do I have to do to be able to scan again?

    Often, you have to download updated vendor software drivers when you switch operating systems. HP doesn't list a C5500 on their web site, however, here's the link to the OS X 10.6 C5540 software.  If you have one of the other C55xx models, look for the updated driver/scan software on their software/driver download section of HP.Com.

  • I recently bought an ipad 2 and wanted to use all the apps on my iphone4 on my ipad but have been charged when I use my apple id. What should I have done to share the apps?

    I recently bought an ipad 2 and wanted to use all the apps on my iphone4 on my ipad but have been charged for the first app I downloaded when I use the same apple id. What should I have done to share the apps and should I have been charged? 2 months ago when I got a new iphone, i was told in order to get all my apps back as I hadn't backed up my files, if I used the same apple id I would 'purchase' the app, but then would not be charged as apple would recognise that I have already purchased the app. That worked, but when I did the same thing on my ipad 2 using the same apple Id, I was charged... what should I have done and is this right as I thought the whole point of having multiple apple devices was I could share apps between devices. please help! thanks.

    Using the same Apple id and Password you should be able to download purchased apps without being charged again.
    I download to an iPad/iPad2/iPhone3 & iPhone4 with no problem.
