If I have a link to a SWF file - for example here http://redletterdaysb2b.co.uk/swf/our-video.swf
how can I extract it for use on another website?
I have downloaded the swf, but just get an error#2044 when I try and play it. does it need to go in some sort of wrapper?
thanks guys
You're trying to load a swf that in turn loads and displays a .flv using the FLVPlayback component. I'm guessing our-video.swf loads fine, but it probably keeps a relative reference to the .flv.
I can think of two ways to handle this:
Simple add a new FLVPlayback (or any other video player) on the other site but tell it to load the .flv file from the original site.
Try to copy the .flv file in the same folder as the new .swf on the new site.
With the FLVPlayback component there's another part that could cause the error: the skin which on the original site is here.
The #2024 IOError should also include an URL.
This is your best hint to how the our-video.swf is trying to load the .swf file (using a relative(./swf/redletterdays.swf) or an absolute(/swf/redletterdays.swf) path).
Based on this, if you decide to load the player from the original site (not just the .flv file), you can work out where to place the skin (i.e. in the in a folder named swf on the root of the new site)

I have a script that imports some legacy media into Umbraco media library. File gets saved, and is vissible in the backend, and when I access the direct url mywebsite.com/media/[id]/myfile.pdf - the file is loaded correct.
But, if I use the media (file or image) on the site, an image for instance, the image does not get shown. If i then find the image in the backend media library, clicks save, and nothing more, it works for that image.
But as there is 1000+ media files, this is not really an option to do manually.
I tried rebuilding the examine indexes, all of them, deleting them, deleting umbraco.config, temp folders etc.
Tried a small script that loops through all media files and saves them again mediaService.Save(mediaItem), but nothing works.
What am I missing?
I have published a Captivate 6 file in swf format. In one the slides is a button, that when clicked executed a small piece of javascript code to open a url , using the window.open command. This link opens fine, when i publish the project as a html5 output, ie mp4 file. however , when I publish it as swf, nothing happens on clicking the button. I read somewhere that flash security settings need to be updated and you need to add the folder where swf file is , as a trusted folder. I did that but still it does not work. Then I read that this problem comes only while developing since the flash player blocks access to local files and folder, so I published this swf on a web server on , but again same problem. Would be very grateful if anyone can provide some way to solve this. Thanks.
I'm using Captivate 7 and have had countless problems with javascript, but anyways... I'll avoid ranting about that.
When you publish it as an swf are you loading it from the .htm file? I've noticed that JavaScript only "worked"(haha, if you could...ok, no ranting..) by loading it in the .htm file. When I loaded the swf directly locally or from a web server it wouldn't work.
There are three or four files in Captivate 7: swf, htm, css, and js file.
When I put all of those on the web server, and load the .htm file JavaScript... uh, "worked'.. yeah
I have a full website html, css, images, javascripts and video on my local hardrive all contained in a folder.
the website works great on my PC but i need to transfer it to an iPad, i was thinking that this should be easy ... well its not since i cant just copy the site over and run it like on my PC.
so my next step was to try and make a .webarchive of the site but since it has a lot of jquery and video files i cant just use safari since it wont include any of the video files and so on.
was hoping someone knows of a tool or a method to convert a folder into a webarchive.
Just open the website over safari and then Save As... web archive.
My currently unsolved issue is exactly the reverse one.
Is there any way to load only a part of a big file by useing FileReference.load() in flash player?
It's known that the AS3 API FileReference has given the ability to load local file in flash.
However, in the case which you want pre-process this file in flash, the only way is by using the FileReference.load function. Unfortunately, the FileReference.load function will load the total file in the memory immediately. And the size of the loading file is limited up to 100M.
So, what i want to do is just load a part of the file whoes size is under 100M, process it, and upload it, and then load another one.
Any one has any idea?
Thanks :)
I am using appfile:/. The path is correct; if I put it on screen and copy-paste it in the explorer it links to the image.
Is there anything else I need to do?
UPDATED I have updated the library, now is more easy to use. Can you test it?
I am the author of the StageWebViewBridge class. There is a known problem if you are using Android. Anyway, I have a working solution I will update the next week.
If the problem is not in Android, then send me some code.
I am also confused on how to access locally packaged assets. I put them in the HTML folder as requested and when I send a signal to the StageWebViewBridge to set the .src attribute of a video I'm not sure how to do it.
Without StageWebViewBridge and entirely in a website I can just reference the file for a video object via JavaScript directly e.g. swvRef.src = 'file.mp4';. This works perfectly fine. When I try to tell flash to send a call via StageWebViewBridge it does receive the call to the StageWebView (I have JavaScript reporting it). However when I try to set the .src of a video object I can't figure out the correct path.
The documentation says to put all things in a 'html' folder. I did so. No reference to a .src of 'html/a.mp4' or 'a.mp4' or 'htmlCache/a.mp4' ever makes the new javascript html5 video class work.
Bridge otherwise is working perfectly sending AS->JS and JS->AS. I'm just looking for info on how to reference packaged files. I want to play a video I put in the /html folder and so far, I just can't do it.
Got the same issue and fixed it with "appfile:/"
Why do you require "appfile:/ for a local html file ?
If the treated html/js/css is local and asset is relative (aka ../ or no http://) you should treat them as "appfile:/" ?
If the treated file is distant you do not have to handle assets ?
Is there a best practice to work with "appfile:/" ?
Actually I debug my html/js/css game in the browser but if I use appfile:/ it will no longer works. I will have to handle 2 behaviors.
