Flash CS3: Help me make my movie play, please!

URL: http:schoolsignsonline.com

It is an electronic company sign, so I will try to put a Flash animation of one of their signs on their pre-existing site. No sound, no skin, no control, whole movie, an endless loop.

I imported a video .avi (from PC) of the client in Flash CS3 (on a Mac), and made sure my internship is the same size as file settings.

Saved the file. Test the movie in Flash. * The movie plays just fine *. This is a picture of colourful balloons, growing on a black background.

I publish the movie.

I copy the .fla and .swf into folder flash at the root of the site on my local server.

I go to Dreamweaver CS3 to insert the film using their integration > Flash in the div that I created for this on the index page (which uses only SSI for the nav and footer only - no PHP involved - so each page has an .shtml extension).

I test the movie in DW by clicking on the green arrow in the toolbar properties. Nothing but white. Movie does not play, or if he plays, it's only white.

What the devil. I save the page, leaving the DW to generate the script.

I have download the index page revised the flash (with the .swf and .fla inside files) folder and the folder Scripts of the site on the remote server.

Go to a browser. Nothing but white where the film is supposed to be.

I've asked about this on the Adobe DW on Yahoo Groups group and don't know, thinking it was a problem of Flash. One of them says that the film could not be found. Dang it! This is a script that DW generated when I placed the film in the page! I don't know anything about JavaScript (yet), so I'm not going to muck about in the code to break.

BTW, the HTML code of the page with the movie about it is no longer valid - I hear that this is typical an insertion of Flash CS3 by DW.

Can someone PLEASE help me understand what I did wrong? What other information do you need from me?

Thank you in advance.

Theresa

For the html file generated by Flash, essentially want to copy the script tag in the head section...

in the same place in the head section of the actual file.

and copy the section of the code in the body of starting with and including...

  • Need help to make the movie to burn to dvd with Microsoft movie maker

    I don't know whether or not we have a DVD burner on our computer. It only gives me the ability to burn on a dvd when I try to publish a movie in movie maker from microsoft. is this in any way about this? I can download something and or transfer the work I have already done to media player somehow and do it? Also is there any kind of CD that I can burn that would play the pictures and sound on the dvd player?

    To burn a movie to a DVD and be able to play on a normal DVD player, you need WindowsDVD Creation.
    Windows DVD creation is included in the system IF you have either
    Vista Home Premium, Ultimate
    Windows 7 Edition Home Premium or higher.

    If your version of Windows is not one of the above, you will need to google for a 3rd party DVD Maker.

  • Help with the Flash CS3 Tutorial Code effect particle

    I did the tutorial from http://www.schoolofflash.com/2008/03/Flash-CS3-particle-effect/ . I used a star to replace the circle. Here is my code:

    var starsArray:Array = new Array();

    var maxStarss:Number = 8;

    function addStars(e:Event)

    {

    Stars: var = new stars Stars();

    Stars.x = stage.stageWidth/2;

    Stars.y = stage.stageHeight/2;

    Stars.Alpha = Math.Random () *.8 +. 2;

    stars.scaleX = stars.scaleY = Math.Random () *.8 +. 2;

    stars.xMovement = Math.Random () * 10 - 5;

    stars.yMovement = Math.Random () * 10 - 5;

    starsArray.push (stars);

    addChild (stars);

    stars.cacheAsBitmap = true;

    If (starsArray.length > = maxStarss)

    {

    removeChild (starsArray.shift ());

    }

    stars.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveStars);

    }

    function moveStars(e:Event)

    {

    e.currentTarget.x += e.currentTarget.xMovement;

    e.currentTarget.y += e.currentTarget.yMovement;

    }

    var myTimer:Timer = new Timer (50);

    myTimer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, addStars);

    myTimer.start ();

    This time, I'm trying to make the stars shrink and transparent that move away from the point. So I coded like this:

    import flash.events.Event;

    var starsArray:Array = new Array();

    var maxStarss:Number = 8;

    function addStars(e:Event)

    {

    Stars: var = new stars Stars();

    Stars.x = stage.stageWidth/2;

    Stars.y = stage.stageHeight/2;

    Stars.Alpha = Math.Random () *.8 +. 2;

    stars.scaleX = stars.scaleY = Math.Random () *.8 +. 2;

    stars.xMovement = Math.Random () * 10 - 5;

    stars.yMovement = Math.Random () * 10 - 5;

    starsArray.push (stars);

    addChild (stars);

    stars.cacheAsBitmap = true;

    If (starsArray.length > = maxStarss)

    {

    removeChild (starsArray.shift ());

    }

    stars.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveStars);

    stars.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, animeStars);

    }

    function animeStars(e:Event)

    {

    trace (this.starsArray);

    this.scaleX = 0.01;

    this.scaleY-= 0.01;

    This.Alpha-= 0.01;

    If (this.alpha < = 0) / / remove this object from scene

    }

    function moveStars(e:Event)

    {

    e.currentTarget.x += e.currentTarget.xMovement;

    e.currentTarget.y += e.currentTarget.yMovement;

    }

    var myTimer:Timer = new Timer (50);

    myTimer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, addStars, animeStars);

    myTimer.start ();

    I couldn't make it work. "I got was an error message saying"

  • Please help me? (Problem of flash CS3 form)

    Hello
    I am a beginner in Adobe Flash CS3
    Now, I'm a fla (Flash video) file.
    say, there is a bitmap (image) in the component library / (imported).
    I create a form with this image. (fill as bitmap type).
    Now. what I want, I want to change the bitmap shape at run time by using external image (jpeg) file. I can load and modify the frames in the clip. But I don't want that. I want to change the bitmap of a form (graphic symbol) by loading an external file (image file ex.jpeg) and I also want to keep proportions. (say my form size is 800 X 600 px and I want to load image 1486x1020px in this form. Then, he'll keep proportions and resize to 800 x 600.
    could someone help me...


    Pleaese at least give me a suggestton or feedback *.

    Thank you...

    with as2, you can only create a form in the authoring environment and forms cannot be referenced with actionscript (in as2).

  • Flash CS3 Question. Help, please! Thank you!!!

    I posted my question once again, since it is in (.zip) file.

    http://S687.Photobucket.com/albums/vv231/Suchana6/?action=view & Current = website.jpg

    There is a link to the problem with my button, that I created using Flash CS3, Action Script 2.0. The first button is inside a big white box. Anyone know why this problem and how can I solve this problem? Thank you very much. It will be greatly appreciated.

    Here's what I think, what your problem is.  Your internship must be resized to the size of the image.  I'm just guessing that you publish the SWF in this file and the code that places it in an html page is saying that it is very small to fit in this small space, but the swf file includes all of the white background that see you... then all you see is a specification due to having shrunk so small in the web page swf file.

    If you change your Document settings to the dimensions that you see for the width and height of the Flash file in the html code.  Then move the content in the scenic space and publish this file.

  • window too big help in Flash CS3 Mac

    so I have my macbook pro, the value the highest resolution screen pixel height is approximately 1050. only help opens the dialog box in flash to something, as high 1500px, which means I can't have at the bottom of him! I can't even raise the wreck so I can resize the smaller box, its just unusable. which is extremely frustrating, especially when the AS3 documentation is not online and I must rely on http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/docs/ that covers most, BUT NOT ALL of the AS3 classes, I have just found out by searching for FLVPlayback that there are.

    the main thing is that I can't teach myself use FLVPlayback because:

    1. the help box is unusable; and
    2. the documentation backup solution online do there IS not!

    Adobe, you are doing a great job and thank you so much for all the great things you did Flash do but please, considering the amount of money I paid for this software - and had pay rates absurdly inflated Europeans, which is a scandal in itself - it is frankly not good enough.

    If someone from adobe is listening HELP me to HELP YOU!

    OK so little shown of the finger and red front, I managed to find a solution to this. a bit on the mac again and had somehow he got into my head that I could only drag-change the size of some dialog boxes by dragging its bottom right. with this hidden above the bottom of the screen corner, I thought I was stuck with a huge help window. I just accidentally discovered tho I can fly over the very top of the Help window and resize the window down from up there. then, once it's a bit smaller I can drag the Help window now correctly size upward and entirely on the screen.

    It helped me make a window out suddenly huge a reasonable size also.

    boy, am I in trouble. ;)

    I'll be back I'm sure.

  • Flash Cs3 - animation main movie stops

    In my time, I have 20 scenes. In addition to has less than 30 minutes of animation

    And always in the scene 12 the main movie animation stops, the sound continues all off until the end, 20 scenes, but the frame of the animation remains the same.

    I have changed the order of the scenes to see if it was a problem of scene, but always stop even when another scene is at this place.
    (Note: I Don t have any action script code, so there is nothing tellling to stop)

    First question flash was a maximum of time or the size of an animation file can play. If Yes, where can I change?

    Solutions for this problem?

    Thank you all...

    Ned Merci for your quick response

    Ok. You give the opportunity to put everything in a main storyline. This will give a lot of work. And the average of doesn´t which is a solution to the problem. But is possible.

    As I said, when I mean the scene 12 stops, I mean more than one less after 15 minutes, and I've replaced the order of the scenes, and after this time, it stops again. If the problem isn´t in the scene.

    OK, I created the problem.

    I get the flash can´t mensage publish my movie because it contains more than 16,000 images

    How can I solve this? How can I add more images to my movie?

    I put all the scenes within a movie, and in the call just main movie each scene, is probably the best solution.8
