    [F8] FLVPlayer Component not working

    Hi Everyone,

    I am having problem with the FLVPlayer Component in Flash 8. I place the component on stage, assign a FLV path and publish the movie. When I open the published html/swf, I cannot see either the player(skin) or the video. Strangely though, when I test the movie with Ctrl + Enter, the video works fine. I have looked in to the forums and help documentation but to no avail. Am I missing something obvious?

    Many thanks,

    Essaeyu

    Are you making sure the paths are correct in your code? As in all of your files are in the same directory?

    OK. The reason the files are not working are because my source files were on network drive. When dealing with Flash video, always have the source ciode on your local hard drive. This is because when a Flash source file is on a netwok drive, the path assigned for the FLV video is converted into absolute path to the network rather than a relative path.

    I have a .mov file which I want to play in flvplayer component.
    But it doesnt do anything.
    Through help I have found that its property is 16bit integer(Big Endian), Mono, 22.050kHz, H.264, 1008*567, Millions .
    How to play that .mov file in flvplayer.
    The rest .mov file which I got plays fine in flvplayer component.
    Eg-AAC, mono, 44.100kHz, H.264, 1000*567, Millions.

    Any help ???

    You'll need to convert the MOV to FLV. ***** FLV converter is the best on the market.

    encode to .mp4. It's a different container but quicktime can play it back as well as an .mov.

    you can use a program called handbrake which is free and will encode to .mp4.
