Comments:
<0> There are 2 ways
<0> I prefer the latter
<1> ok but in .load for that first xml one i could put an http in the load right
<0> yep
<0> It could be:
<0> xml_myDoc.load("http://www.foo.com/test.asp";);
<0> As long as test.asp returns XML it's fine
<0> Are you planning on loading across domains
<1> not across domains probably
<1> so a single picure graphic is called a "movie"?
<0> You will run into issues if you try to do so, google crossdomain.xml
<1> ok gotcha
<0> !google crossdomain.xml flash
<2> http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14213
<1> so when ppl make flash videos, what codecs do tehy normally use?
<0> Flash video is FLV
<0> You can import a movie into flash 8 and it will bring up an encoding wizard if you're unsure
<0> Sorensen squeeze is also a good program to batch convert files
<0> !google Sorensen squeeze
<2> http://www.sorenson.com/
<3> are there any other vector graphic formats that can be used on the web besides flash?
<0> SVG
<0> Owned by Adobe as Flash is now too so hopefully it will go away
<0> !google scalable vector graphics
<2> http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/
<3> is it widespread or do you need a plugin?
<0> I belive no plugin required, or at least it's built into FireFox if you use that
<3> oh, i need it to work on almost everything
<1> i think this whole flv thign is a bad trend
<0> I would go Flash then
<3> i guess flash is my best bet, the plugin is easy enough and most people have it already
<3> yeah, thanks
<0> Plageuis, how so?
<0> Glazed, I think for Flash 7 you're looking at high 90's for percentage
<0> !google flash version penetration
<2> http://www.adobe.com/software/player_census/flashplayer/version_penetration.html
<1> VgSlag: because with flv they can make it easy to not make it full screen, like quicktime (lame), and also make it hard to capture the video, etc, and it's propietary you can't shoose what player it shows the flash video in
<3> that;s awesome, i'm targeting flash 7
<0> Sorry ~95%
<3> that's still cool
<1> right VgSlag?
<0> Plageuis, to some extent that's correct. But the very nature of Flash means the video would most likely be small anyways so I wouldn't want to make it full screen. Capturing is harder yes, and I agree with that, but it's not impossible. And also agreed about not being able to chose player but looking at my last comment you'll see ~95% have Flash 7 so I wouldn't be too fussed.
<0> !google flv stream rip
<2> http://www.leaveitbehind.com/code/2005/11/streaming_video.html
<1> well i am fussed because i hate not being able to change scren size and my client wants to intercept video and add features and i dont see a way to just intercept or rip and replace flv
<4> !1find rules
<1> flash and pdf are just a monopoly that is under the radar
<4> can anyone here help out a beginner...i'm not trying to program with flash, what i need is not that difficult
<0> [S2H] - Just ask :)
<4> hey guysthanks :)
<4> i downloaded a free flash mp3 player for my site, but when I add it in dreamweaver, all i get is this big white block
<0> Plageuis, although beyond the average user you could write your own little player file to laod FLVs
<4> i can't do anything with it
<0> Then you can control playback size
<0> Andone with Flash program could do it
<0> Anyone*
<0> [S2H] Are you trying to edit it in dreamweaver?
<0> Or just embed it?
<4> embed it
<4> i edited the xml files for the playlist and stuff
<0> I've not used dreamweaver sadly, have you checked google?
<4> lol
<0> !google embed flash object using dreamweaver
<4> i have been on google for 3 hours now
<2> http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_4150
<0> Can you not just add the html code directly in dreamweaver?
<4> i find a lot of tutorials to build them as standalone, but i need it on a certain page
<4> you can
<0> In the code in the above URL change:
<4> but what all code do I need to add and in what order?
<0> myFlashMovie.swf
<0> WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400"
<0> You need all that's in that box in the above link
<1> how do u p*** a parm to the swf
<0> Differentt browsers read different tags
<0> Plageuis, there are a couple of ways
<0> You can specify it query string like after the .swf in the object/embed tags:
<0> <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="myFlashMovie.swf">
<0> oops
<0> <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="myFlashMovie.swf">
<0> Gah
<1> one more time ...
<1> hehe
<0> <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="myFlashMovie.swf?var1-foo&var2=poo">
<0> - should be =
<0> Or there is the flashvars method which is newer
<0> !google flashvars tag
<2> http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mesh/archives/2002/05/example_integra.html
<1> right thast what i thought and ho wdo u read them out in the flash
<0> !google flashvars
<2> http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_16417
<0> The appear as ordinary variables
<0> In flash :
<0> trace(var1)
<4> Vg...
<0> // Returns "foo"
<0> [S2H] ?
<4> I have already got the player embedded
<1> ah ok so all the vars are dynamic
<4> it's there, it just doesn't work
<3> can flashvars only be added at the begginning, like when you first load the SWF?
<0> [S2H], Do you have the XML in the correct directory?
<0> glazed, yes
<4> it's all in the same folder
<0> There are other ways of getting data into Flash once loaded
<4> do I have to add the xml to the the html or something?
<0> s2h, do you know if it's laoding the XML ?
<4> no
<4> i don't know that much about html or anything
<0> Ok, do you have it online anywhere?
<4> sorry
<0> It's ok
<4> it can be
<0> If you put it online I can have a quick check
<0> Have to start work soonish
<4> ok
<4> i'll hurry
<0> No great rush
<0> I have 40 minutes
<4> ok
<4> i think it should be there...lemme just check real quick
<4> http://www.s2h-records.com/beats.html
<4> there it is :/
<0> The swf isn't uploaded
<0> It's looking for http://www.s2h-records.com/flash_mp3_player/mp3player.swf
<0> and the XML should be in http://www.s2h-records.com/XML_FILW_NAME_HERE.xml
<4> they're both in the main directory on my ftp
<4> i uploaded them both
<0> [08:20] <4> i'll hurry
<0> gah
<0> Ok, then you need to change your html
<4> LOL
<0> Sorry, I seem to be unable to use my computer this morning.
<0> View your page source:
<0> <param name="movie" value="flash_mp3_player/mp3player.swf" />
<0> Change it to:
<0> <param name="movie" value="mp3player.swf" />
<0> And:
<0> <embed src="flash_mp3_player/mp3player.swf".....
<0> Change to:
<0> <embed src="mp3player.swf"....
<0> That way it will look in the correct directory
<0> Location I mean
<4> i need to change all of this...
<4> <embed src="flash_mp3_player/mp3player.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="250" height="300"></embed>
<4> or
<0> Just remove "flash_mp3_player/"
<4> nevermind
<4> just the beg
<0> from teh first part
<0> Correct
