Posted 12 August 2011 - 12:14 AM

Hi Ive just been attempting to design my first site and wanted to add a little video on one of my pages i converted the files in .swf and .f4v and copied the html into the page. i tested the site locally and all my videos showed up and worked fine, after uploading them to the remote hosting server i noticed not only do they not play but they also only show half of the interface as if there is something wrong in the script for them.

Heres a link to my site: http://knoxdesign.co...gegalleria.html (this is the page in question)

here is my source code for the page:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<link href="Knoxcss.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />


<script type="text/javascript">
function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
  var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
}
function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
  var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
    var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)
    if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}

function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
  var p,i,x;  if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
  if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
  for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
  if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_swapImage() { //v3.0
  var i,j=0,x,a=MM_swapImage.arguments; document.MM_sr=new Array; for(i=0;i<(a.length-2);i+=3)
   if ((x=MM_findObj(a[i]))!=null){document.MM_sr[j++]=x; if(!x.oSrc) x.oSrc=x.src; x.src=a[i+2];}
}

I have the .sfw files in the root folder, and a .sfw file called MinimaFlatCustomColorPlayBackCounterVolMute.swf, I assume this is just some customisation settings for my video players that should be kept with the other swf files in the site root folder. I also have the .f4v files stored in a folder within the site root folder.
If there is anything you guys spot that i have missed Id be really grateful as I cannot find the reason it isnt working at all.

Cheers.

Hi azura,

First things first, please confirm you have the required Flash Video MIME types on the remote server.

Please see this link.

Thanks,
Dave.

Hi Dave,
Thanks, I tried adding a .htaccess file into my remote server with:

AddType video/ogg .ogv
AddType video/mp4 .mp4
AddType video/webm .webm

but im still getting the same issue.
Im using 1&1 to host nt sure if im doing things right
they have a logs folder with a .htaccess file in but its not editable/ reuploadable.
any ideas?

Cheers.

Can you not add them in via the control panel or can you get the hosting company to verify they are present?

Have you give the .SWF file the full URL to the video -

http://knoxdesign.co.uk/video.f4v

Hi well tried making a new page with a different way of embedding flash video using just .swf with no .f4v files needed so i can eliminate any pathing issues and the problem still occurs therefore im thinking it could be what you mentioned about the MIME types so im just waiting for a reply from my host to see what they say. ill keep you updated.

Thanks again.
Josh.

Right i now have a working .htaccess file with:

AddType video/ogg .ogm .ogv .ogg
AddType video/mp4 .mp4 .m4v .f4v
AddType video/webm .webm
AddType video/x-flv .flv
AddType application/x-shockwave-flash .swf
AddType application/pdf .pdf

but the videos still do not play although on the new test video page i made it is different instead of only half of the flash video player controls showing, now there is nothing showing but this only is happening on www.knoxdesign.co.uk/testvid that 100% should'nt be suffering from any pathing mistakes or issues.

What else can be wrong to stop the video being playable online?

Cheers.

Ive checked it and yeah everything is correct, Ive heard that there can be problems with dreamweaver cs5 and its auto insert features sometimes it can code things wrong?
no idea where to go from here, people have suggested using youtube but thats not the route i want to go with adverts and things.

have you tried regenerating the .swf files and checking the settings. In the first link there is something showing but probably not everything you want. Does it do anything cross domains....I can remember that being an issue a few years ago when I played with flash and you needed to have some sort of cross domain policy or something going on.

yeah the second video page with nothing showing but a blank flash player is with completely new files using different settings. I'm rather new to this with only basic understanding of html and css could you explain how i might test it cross domains?

Thanks
Josh.

Ah thankyou for showing me this I will have to use this I think as my own embedded flash videos do not want to work.

does anyone know how to embed your own .swf videos into html without using adobe auto coding?

Thanks again
Josh.

Have you uploaded the JavaScript files that Dreamweaver generates when you embed Flash, they will be in a folder called Scripts and the file will be called AC_RunActiveContent.js (sorry for the delay I have been away.)

Thanks,
Dave.

Hi Dave,

yeah ive place the javascript file with the video files.

And Saint Im not sure what you mean... should i make another test page and use your code and just insert my .swf?
and as regards to the cls id after i generate one what do i do with it? has that got to be somehow attached to the video? or just insert it in the html only?

Thanks all for being patient with me.

Josh.
