Having Problem With Imported Video In FLASH
Hello,

This is the situation. I am cutting some effects in adobe premier and exported them out as a quicktime movie (Size 350kbs, quality =high). When I play the movie within quicktime player, the quality of the movie is very crisp and sharp, but when this movie is imported into FLASH, movie gets pixilated and the quality suffers as well. I have tried different formats and am unable to get good video quality after the movie is imported into FLASH.

Appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks.

Flash Video - Imported .avi Is Blurry With Red Text
Hi all,

Im importing .avis into my Flash file, and its coming up with some strange results. Ive tried Flash MX and Flash 2004 with same problem.

I did a video in Camtasia, which is essentially the same as Captivate (was called Robodemo) makes a movie from capturing wats happening on the screen, then can export to .avi

But when I import these .avi's into Flash, they look fine except for the red text. Which is all blurry or a faded crimson colour, instead of red.

I have done a screen capture of the .avi playing in Flash, so you can see the blurryness and faded red.

When I import video it automatically comes up with the Sorenson Spark player, but are there any 3rd party players I can download/purchase which will handle video betta in Flash?
I really need these .avi's to look as good in the Flash player as they do in windows media player or quicktime.

Here is a link to the screenshot.

I have 'circled' the problem areas in green.

Flash Video Imported From MOV Stops Midway
I imported an MOV video into Flash using "progressive download from web server". Did not get any error message. But when I run the Flash, the video plays and then stops midway.

I did play the original MOV in QuickTime and it ran all the way through fine.

I have tried in both Flash 8 and CS3 and at "high" and "medium" quality. Same thing.

What could be wrong? And what are my suggested alternatives?

Thanks.

Quicktime Video Quality When Imported To Flash
Hello, I am trying to import a Quicktime video into Flash. The quicktime quality seems fine, but when I play it in flash and exported, it gets the lines breaking it up. I've tried both embedding it onto the timeline, and streaming it from the server and the quality looks the same. I also have tried an FLV and seem to get the same problem. Is there a setting I am missing or something?

Here is the original quicktime.(give it a sec to load)
http://www.r2integrated.com/clients/...est_Clip_1.mov

and here is what my swf winds up looking like with that video clip in it
http://www.r2integrated.com/clients/...rs/728x90.html

You can see the horizontal white lines I am getting. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

How Can I Synchronize My Flash Movie With Imported Video Clips?
Hi there:

I'm working on my first Flash project, and have come across a problem. I created a Flash movie with one scene and a couple of movie clips. I imported a one minute musical bed that is 1,800 frames (I set the movie to 30 frames/sec).

I created some animation and it tested perfectly. I then created a movie clip and imported a short video piece into it (processed at 30 frames/sec).

Now all of a sudden my timing is off. The music ends well before it is suppose to. And, the video clip that I imported seems to be running in slow motion!

The scene still has 1,800 frames; but it seems as if the addition of the video clips has stretched the work somehow.

I assumed that if all the elements were set to 30 frames/sec everything would fit seemlessly.

Any suggestions as to how I can get the imported video clip to run in time with the music???

Thanks in advance.

[CS3] Control Imported Flv Video
Hello,

I have imported a flv video to my main timeline using the Progressive download method (not embedded) because the video is quite large. It only takes up one keyframe and I put a stop(); on that keyframe. I would like to know what codes that I have to put so that it will go back to the beginning of the main timeline after the video is completed. Right now it just stops where it is after playing.

thanks if anyone could help out.

Imported Video Management
I am about to try a project and i'm waiting on some photographs, and possibly some short videos to use in the background, interface and menu design. I've imported mpegs into flash MX before, and they just span the timeline for about 2000 frames, i was wondering if:

a) there is a more manageable way to import them and deal with them on the stage

b) and a better file type.

c) also if its going to make a massive file, even with preloading will it be worth waiting for?

any help would be great or if u think i'd get a better response from a different section of the forums, please let me know.
Thankyou !!!!!!!

Imported Video Only Plays Using Certain URL
I imported an avi file into a flash file and published it to my internal server web site. If I open the test html file from the server over a mapped drive or directly while logged onto the server, it plays just fine. If I try to play it from the server using the web page's URL, it just shows me an empty page except for the recognition there is a flash object there.

Other flash objects play just fine - it's just this one.

Imported Video Upside Down
Tyring to encode mpg files as FLVs. When I import the mpgs, they are upside down. Same problem with Flash CS3 and Flash Encoder. The mpgs play fine in Windows Media Player and can be converted by Windows Media Encoder without problem. Any ideas? The files were created using Pinnacle Studio.

Imported Video Off-color?
I'm doing something in flash that requires me to import video, and when I import a .mov file with a white background, it appears in flash as more of an off white, but that won't work because it goes on to white and is really easy to spot the error. Is there anything in the Flash import settings that could help me here?

Imported Compiled Video
Actionscripting isnt easy, for me.

Hello, I've got a little problem. I've imported a videoclip into flash, by file > import > import video. Created the video as a progressive video, a self contained movieclip.

At the flash work area: I have a picture, which is a button, and goes to frame 10 with: on(release) { gotoAndStop(10); }. The videoclip is on frame nr 10, It plays, great, no problem. Until its finished. Then just a black frame appears. I want it to go back to frame nr 1, where the picture/button is. Any suggestions?

gotoAndStop(1); on frame nr 10 doesnt work. Then it just skips the flash movie when clicking on the button. I am using Macromedia Flash Professional 8.

Thank you.

Imported Video - Frame Rate
i am trying to use a video clip as a background layer. i have imported it and it works fine, but it looks more effective with the frame rate slowed down to 3 fps. however, if i do this, the rest of the elements on other layers also slow down to 3 fps. is there any way i can slow the video down to 3 fps but not the rest of the movie?

Altering Imported Video Files
I have an ebedded video in my Flash MX 6.0 movie. Unfortunately, it contains extremely loud noise (it's a clip from a NASCAR race), so I only want the video, not the audio. Is there any way to strip such a video of its sound? I was imported from .mpg, if that helps.

I don't care if there's a proper way to do it or simply a quick'n'dirty fix; either way works for me.

Playing An Imported Video Backwards
Hi guys,

I know several topics similar to this one has been posted in the past, I've looked through the previous posts, but none of them have been of much help.

I'm doing a project which has a big tree. I have a video in which the camera moves up the tree when the user rolls over the top of the screen. I also want it to move back down when the user rolls over the bottom. kind of simlilar to semillero (http://www.semillero.net).

I have several videos of the tree moving up, and I want to reverse the videos using actionscript in Flash to to acheive the "moving down" effect.

http://www.jimmyrob.co.uk/etetra/about.html

The above link shows what I have so far - any ideas on how to make the video play backwards would be greatly appreciated!

[MX04] Imported Video Problems
Hi!
I have a minor Flash-related problem which I hope someone here can help me with.
For the record, I have Flash MX 2004. I'm working on a .wmv video in Flash because I wanted to mask some repeated movement.

I had no problems importing the video into flash, however there is one thing I can't figure out. Why can't I edit my video frame by frame? If I draw over one of the frame then it affects all of them. So, I thought I could stop the problem by making keyframes. However, it seems that every time I make a keyframe the content is simply a copy of the first frame.

I would be very glad if someone could help, as I can't complete my video before I can edit the imported video frame-by-frame. Thanks in advance.

I am trying to embed a movie into the timeline. I want it to play once and then have the page redirect to another page afterward (I am trying to create a splash screen). I don't want the movie player which is why I have chosen to embed it.

I can import the movie and embed it fine but it just loops forever and I can't seem to get it to redirect.

Can anyone help with this one?

Looping An Imported Video, Easiest Way Is?
I've just imported a video into my Flash project, and it's too short. I need it to continuously play. I've been looking through the Help file, and I found this under the Publishing Quicktime files section:

"Select one of the following Playback options to control how QuickTime plays a video:
Looping repeats the video when it reaches the last frame. "

I can't find these Playback options.

Any help?
