Need advice on several videos in Flash Catalyst 5.5

Hello

I'm looking for some advice and I was hoping that some of you had already made some experiences with what I'm trying to reach.

Well, I must be able to show something like 15-20 files, F4V, each about 2-3 minutes, in my project. Each film is supposed to be triggered by a dedicated button, ideally all of the same country, so as a master State or so. Now, I was wondering what would be the best approach.

Can I simply create new step and basically stack videos all over each other and played whenever needed or should I create a State for each of them. This would probably cause a mess too, as there is no option to organize States in a smooth way.

All good advice?

Thank you

Christian

Darren will work. The best solution would be to create the UI in Flash Catalyst, then the transition from designing in Flash Builder and add the logic of switching here. The advantage would be that you can exceed the limit of 20 State with Flash Catalyst and also have control with video. This is all assuming you know some ActionScript.

  • Need advice to make a simple Flash video file. Trying to accomplish two things.

    I have some video files (.avi) that I'm trying to convert a Flash video format. I'm trying to export it to a Flash drive to be in a Powerpoint file. With that, I'm trying to accomplish two objectives:

    1. to have the small clip (15 s, 30 fps) constantly loop, like an animated .gif.

    2. allow the user to click on the video and made player slide left/right for ff / rew.

    The video itself is an animation of the turntable. One of our products makes a full 360 degrees turn. By allowing the user to capture and drag, it will simulate turning the model.

    So far, I have already achieved objective 1. I made a new Actionscript 3, any video file (embed flv in swf and play in timeline), and then made the video loop on the timeline. This seems to export properly, and video loop if necessary. The only thing I can't understand is how to "interactive" video and let the user drag left/right.

    For context, I have never used Flash before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Essentially, it comes down to move the playback cursor in Flash based on the movement of the mouse. It certainly won't be smooth, however, you would need a clock to be responsible for moving your head to read and reverse space compression is very intensive CPU (reverse on the timeline). I would recommend having an upstream release and in advance of the video then you could return them, but if you're new to flash you are already in way over your head.

    Add a new layer and try to add this example script (or Download Source example here, registered in CS5):

    import flash.utils.Timer;

    import flash.events.TimerEvent;

    import flash.events.MouseEvent;

    Make sure that we don't raise this image twice

    If (! stage.hasEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN))

    {

    stop the playhead

    Stop();

    set state (forward? back?)

    var movingForward:Boolean = true;

    var curFrame:int = 1;

    var mouseStartX:int; used later to determine the drag

    detect the click of the mouse and drag to the left or right

    stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onMouseF);

    stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, onMouseF);

    create new timer to control the playback head, start it

    var phTimer:Timer = new Timer (33.0).

    phTimer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, movePlayheadF);

    phTimer.start ();

    function to control the playback head

    function movePlayheadF(e:TimerEvent):void

    {

    curFrame += movingForward? 1:-1;

    validate the frame (60 total frames)

    If (curFrame > this.totalFrames) curFrame = 2;

    ElseIf (curFrame< 1)="" curframe="">

    Goto the next image

    this.gotoAndStop (curFrame);

    }

    function that controls the direction variable

    function onMouseF(e:MouseEvent):void

    {

    If (e.type is MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN)

    {

    the user began place start touching, record

    mouseStartX = int (stage.mouseX);

    }

    Else if (e.type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP)

    {

    user let the mouse go, determine the change in direction (by scanning stype)

    If (stage.mouseX > mouseStartX)

    {

    slipped right, move forward

    movingForward = true;

    trace ("move on now '");

    }

    ElseIf (stage.mouseX<>

    {

    crept to the left, move the rear

    movingForward = false;

    trace ("back up now '");

    }

    }

    }

    }

    It's pretty simple. In the link source of the example above, an object in the timeline (nice ugly red circle) is moving right plus 60 frames and then left on 60 images (120 total). Consider that your film.

    A clock at a speed of 33ms (30 fps). It's where he won't necessarily be too smooth with video. If you wear at 60 fps, then decrease the timer of the half (16.5ms), season to taste. Whenever the timer fires the playhead is moved, either forward or backward.

    For whether she should go forward or backward a simple variable (movingForward) keeps track of the last "swipe". The shot is simply captured when a user touches the screen (mouse/finger), moves in a direction and then leaves upward. If they moved to the left the direction will be reversed. If they moved to the right, it will move forward. This does not include nor this logic, but illustrates how you can watch the mouse for movement and 'do something' on this basis.

    A very simple validatior in the event timer function checks if the next image (in both directions) is valid and if it is not the case, it fixes it so that it remains within your length of video editing.

    Note there is a MOUSE_MOVE event you can try to hold on to who can literally let the user drag the video forward and back the amount, they drag their finger/cursor. Also if it is a kind of circular surface as a disc rotates, the direction of the user moving the mouse based on where they registration would change the direction in which they expect to move. Etc etc...

    Who should get your feet wet in how you should consider for your project.

  • Need advice from configuration to the flash cache multi-node RAC/ASM

    We have a database of CARS to work two nodes. We install a new fusion 640 GB flash card in each node. The is a double card, so that it shows up as two devices: / dev/fioa and/dev/fiob on each node.
    We have created two groups of private drives, one on each node. The Group of disks on node 1 is '+ FLASHCACHE' and the disk on node 2 group is "+ FLASHCACHE2".

    We have not found specific examples of how to configure the parameters of the init for flashcache on RAC/ASM. We guess that we must do the following. If anyone would be critical and confirm or suggest something different, we would appreciate it very much!

    "prod1.db_flash_cache_file ='+ FLASHCACHE/flash1"
    prod2.dg_flash_cache_file = '+ FLASHCACHE2/flash2'
    * .db_flash_cache_size = 600G

    Thanks for any advice.

    Jim

    Published by: jimbev90 on January 5, 2012 08:18

    Hi Jim,.

    prod1.db_flash_cache_file='+FLASHCACHE/flash1'
    prod2.dg_flash_cache_file='+FLASHCACHE2/flash2'
    *.db_flash_cache_size=600G
    

    Your configuration is correct.

    Smart Flash Cache database is not shared across RAC nodes. It is private to each RAC instance. For this reason, each RAC instance must define its own local cache of flash file path. When the flash cache is managed by ASM, a separate diskgroup is necessary for each instance flash cache.

    You can use ALTER SYSTEM for db_flash_cache_size set to zero to disable the flash cache. Alternatively, you can use ALTER SYSTEM to deliver the flash cache to its original size to reactivate it.

  • Need advice on the video card / power supply upgrade

    OK, first of all I am a novice to PC. But I have a HP pavilion a6600f. I wan to be able to play games like Battlefield BC2 but graphics integrated card wont cut it. I checked some info and found what motherboard I have. Its a FOXCONN Napa HP P/N. There is a link to the Board of Directors in case it might help you to answer my question. http://www.cnsunnyit.com/products/HP-motherboard-KJ383-69002_78.html

    This motherboard is a card like a GeForce 7800 GT or ATI X 1900? These cards are what is suggested as a Minimum for this game. Also maps would require me to get a 400W power supply. The power supply can be changed as well? All the answers you may have would be great. Also remember that I know very little in terms of pc in order to keep its simple for a simpleton like me. Thank you!

    Hi 223fmj,

    You came to the right place.

    Yes, you can update your graphics card. More than all that depends on ports inside your PC.  Depending on your motherboard (HP) card , you can install PCI Express x 16 graphics cards.

    Here is a link to instructions on the adding/replacing a video card in your PC:

  • Flash Catalyst full screen video

    I inserted a video into Flash Catalyst and export the video, it is in 4.3 report l / h.  The video plays fine in Explorer, but when I hit the button full screen (the screen is widescreen) I get white lines on the side of the screen to keep it in part 4.3. My question is, is it possible to change the color from white to black?

    Hi chopperreed,

    The white background is the appearance defined by wireframe-style video player the 'skin '.  You can get a black background by choosing the 'standard' skin: select the video player and look in the properties panel for a drop-down list titled 'Video control.'  Simply change the value of wired to the standard, and you'll be all set.

    If you really want to keep the appearance of the wired, you cannot change the background color, but you can avoid having visible by changing the dropdown "Scale Mode" Stretch (keeps the proportions) or Zoom (retains the proportions, but done by cropping instead of black bars).

    Hope that helps!

  • Flash 8 video in Flash 7

    I have a Web site server that requires files SWF Flash 7 (MX2004). I need to create some videos these flash files. Given that I can't buy the video plugin case flast 7, I'm upgrading some systems to Flash 8 (Studio 8) which includes video production for flash. STIL waiting for the software to arrive. In the maentime for planning and feasibility, these videos (flash 8) can be imported into a 7 flash file (.fla)? If so, do I need to know something specific to export video to flash 8 video for use in a file (.fla) flash 7?

    Thank you

    Gotcha.

    > (May not make sense, it's simply a business rule).

    No, no, it's fine. :) Your original post made me think the server
    itself does not support Flash 8 SWFs. That's what had confused me.

    > When you say "only the shorter videos" how long is too "
    > long. 1 minute too much to integrate?

    Ultimately, it depends on the kind of audience that you expect to have.
    If it is internal, it is likely that your audience can expect to have a
    very fast connection. However, by keeping the external files FLV, SWF file
    itself can be kept very small, and can stream videos or gradually
    Download as needed. If the FLV file is literally embedded in the SWF, SWF file
    which weighs more. If the SWF file contains a menu that allows viewers to see the
    video, but users are not to choose the part of the menu, they always
    Download the heavy SWF. If the FLV file is * not * included and they choose
    not to select the part of the menu, they only had a smaller download
    file.

    Yes.

    He will need to run Flash Media Server, which is a costly

    Progressive download is your ticket, then. In concept, this really isn't
    very different from referencing a JPG file from an HTML page. With external
    FLV, SWF weighs less, loads faster, and even with a progressively
    FLV, download experience * feels * like streaming to the end user.

  • Hello, I want to build several video clips with more than 500 images (pictures) of each clip. I need to apply a different video transition effect to each photo. It might even be random effects. I see that I can apply a unique to all p transition effect

    Hello, I want to build several video clips with more than 500 images (pictures) of each clip. I need to apply different transitions video effects by alternating each photo. It could be random effects. I see that I can apply a unique pictures transition effect at the same time, but how to apply different transitions not one by one? I could do a clip applying different transitions manually as I wish between hundreds of photos, but I would like to be able to repeat all the transitions of a new video by changing only the photos. Is this possible? Or a tool to apply random transition effects between photos? Or a way to automate the actions to apply different transitions similar to what we can do in Photoshop? Thank you!

    But how to apply different transitions not one by one?

    You can not.

    If you wish to make a slideshow with all the transitions better fantasies use something like Pro Show gold.

  • need advice to view a video on my site w/FLV and SWF

    My users download FLV movies and I don't want to SWF files manually - code is there a way to start with a small movie FLV

    (they average less than a minute) - and package their FLV movies automatically downloaded within a SWF file?

    The site allows them to view the. SWF files using its existing Flash Player.

    (1) the user download a FLV to our site (DONE)

    Always should be cataloged and stored for easy retrieval... need PHP and MySQL

    (2) we create a new SWF from this downloaded FLV file allow the Adobe Flash plugin to view the FLV movie.  (NOT DONE).

    You don't need a .swf for each .flv... Use a SINGLE video player and create a 'Playlist' xml for videos. It is all handled by the PHP and can be classified as you want. Imagine the confusion on the page with 20 different video players! A start does not stop others... so in theory, you could have 20 different players at the same time.

    (3) the creation of the 'wrapper' for the downloaded FLV SWF file must be created by an automated process, * not * by hand.

    Is not necessary and not recommended, especially DO NOT embed the video in the timeline of the .swf. Adobe:
    WARNING: Incorporation of deployment is likely to cause audio sync issues. This option is recommended ONLY for short video clips with no audio track.

    One player will make the page a LOT cleaner, be much easier to implement and maintain. A lot of video players Flash xml and tutorials already on the Internet.

    Once again:

    http://www.gotoandlearn.com/

    at the bottom of page will show you how to build your own custom NetStream (rather that the FLVPlayback component) video Flash Player. NetStream is a much more powerful and versatile way to play and control playback of your video:

    http://livedocs.Adobe.com/Flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/Flash/NET/NetStream.html

    So really no need to create a .swf for each video, rather just create a playlist of simple .xml (text) and use a single player.

  • aftermath video does not start after the publication of flash catalyst project

    I created a Web site in flash catalyst. I used a video I made after affects only the intro of the site. When I run the project in flash catalyst everything works fine, but when I publish it for deployment on the web and run the .swf file, nothing happens. Anyone know what can be the problem?

    Hi Kirill.

    You do not see the video because Your ' e running the .swf generated to deploy to the web folder. You must deploy to the web to download the content of the files to your web server and it will work fine. (same thing happened to me once)

    You can see the video of intro of your machine by clicking in the .swf in the Local run folder.

    Its happens because the video you created is not embedded into the main.swf.

    See you soon.

  • Several video projects on DVD

    Compressor Ver 4.2.2 have the ability to burn two or more FCP video projects on DVD, assuming that there is enough space?

    Compressor Ver 4.2.2 allows to burn a DVD with video to iMovie?

    I have an iMac, mid 2011, OS X El Capitan, worm 10.11.4.

    Thank you

    Compressor (like FCP) can only create videos of single track. If you need to do more, then I would combine them into a single FCC schedule. You would copy and paste several chronologies to a master timeline - probably incorporating title clips and chapter markers for easy navigation. (I guess that iMovie can do that too, but I'm not sure). What is certainly true is that you can export a video from iMovie, and then bring to the compressor to create a movie. (This is to combine several videos into iMovie, that I'm not sure of).

    Post back if you have further questions on this.

  • Inspiron s 660: hard disk failure. Need advice please.

    Long story short my sister gave me a s Inspiron 660 she received as a gift a few years back (legitimate).  She said that was no longer working and I could.  I suspected a faulty hard drive and after several diagnostic tests later confirmed the WD Blue crashed the original; complete failure. Now, here's where I need advice:

    1. when it has received, it came not with a physical disk from the Windows 8.0 operating system.  It was pre-installed and then upgraded through its work of departmental to 8.1 it.

    2. I can't access the code of Windows because it is in the BIOS.

    3. I have a hard drive to work with Windows 7 installed and tried hooking laptop to see if he should realize that he was a long shot at best.  As you have probably concluded he was not recognized.

    4. I thought wiping one of my hard drives and do a clean install of Windows 10.

    Question: With a new hard drive (or possibly an SSD) would work #4 or I still have problems with the BIOS and Windows embedded product code?

    Question: What do you suggest I should try?  It's a nice little system and everything is clean and stable.  I have someone who needs a system, but can't afford it, and I thought I'd give something that would meet its needs.

    Thank you.

    Hello.  I need advice I can buy it on which version of Dreamweaver.  I have an iMac v. 10.10.5.  I want a monthly fee, want just a one-time software purchase so that I can build my own personal Web site

    Creative cloud is simply a distribution model & payment.  You always download & install the software on your computer as you always have.  You always save the files on your local hard drive, you always. Nothing has changed in this regard.

    CS2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5 is no longer supported or sold by Adobe.  If you buy software from another source in line do so at your own risk.  The pirated versions were circulating these last time and they do not work.  In some cases, they contain malware that could compromise your computer.

    You have a modern operating system.  This is another reason to use current software. Several older versions required Rosetta which Apple is more included in its press releases.  Purchase of old copies similarly ligit software does not mean that it will work on your system.  Let's face it, the stuff you used 8 years ago are useless today because Apple & Win continue to change operating systems.

    I use a little media with DW CC.  It is a very fast, modern code editor.   In fact, Adobe will soon integrate DW CC 2016 version supports.
