Default Flash or Dreamweaver Issue
I am working with Flash 8 and Dreamweaver 8. When working with video I can
attach a skin to my flash file (video). I then upload my video and skin to my
Web server. The Flash skin does not appear on my site. Just an empty box at the
bottom of the video where the skin should be.

What am I doing wrong? Any help is sincerely appreciated!

It would be much easier if you gave us a link to the online version, but...

Are you really using Flash version=6,0,29,0? If you're actually using v8 or
higher, you might want to change that parameter.

And, if you /are/ using 8 or higher, and if you're using FLVplayback
component, the "skin" .swf file needs to be in the same folder as the html
page - not the folder with the main .swf file. Not very intuitive, but that
is the case.

Another thing that can cause it is if the path to the .flv is incorrect - at
least if using a streaming server. I haven't tested it with progressive
download.

Yes, I am using Flash version 8. Should that parameter read? "8, 0, 0, 0"? Here
is the code from Dreamweaver. Thank you so much for your time and help.

I don't precisely recall. When you publish from Flash, you can have it create
an HTML file for you. You'll see the object/embed tags in there that will
answer the question.

Did you copy/move your skin .swf file into the same folder as your html file?

I don't see anything obvious in the code you posted, but if you put it all
online somewhere and post a link to it, we may be able to catch something
wrong (404 errors, etc...).

The following has nothing to do with your Flash issue, but...

You might want to correct the typo in "Quality Industires Video Orientation"

And I would probably change this:

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<!-- begin embedded QuickTime file... -->
</body>
</html>

to this:

I am making progress but not there yet. Here is what I have done.

1) I ensured the .swf skin file is in the same directory as the video.

2) I uploaded the corresponding.flv, .fla file and the.swf skin file

3) The HTML file created shows the correct skin. It still is not making it to
the Website yet. The code for the HTML file Flash created is:

html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>LiveMeeting</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<!--url's used in the movie-->
<!--text used in the movie-->
<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/sho ckwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#
version=8,0,0,0" width="320" height="255" id="LiveMeeting" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="LiveMeeting.swf" /><param name="quality"
value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed
src="LiveMeeting.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="320" height="255"
name="LiveMeeting" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflash player" />
</object>
</body>
</html>

Am I getting closer?

I am still going on the assumption that you're using the FLVplayback in
Flash.

No, no, no. I'll say it a third time. It must be in the same directory
as the HTML file.

No need for the .fla file

That's because it saves everything in the same folder. In the code you
posted previously, you had finalorientation2.swf file in the video
folder (I use the same method). Even so, you must have the skin file in
the folder with the .html file.

> value="LiveMeeting.swf

Notice that that is a different file name than what you posted last
time. Did you remember to update the HTML file that you're actually
editing?

> Am I getting closer?

I can't tell since you still haven't supplied an online link.

If you continue to ignore my main suggestion (item 1 and 3 above) and
refuse to supply a link, I don't see how I can be of any further
assistance to you.

Thanks, this helps.

----------------------------------------------------------
GET /Jim%20Harwell%20Website/video2.htm HTTP/1.1
HTTP/1.x 200 OK
----------------------------------------------------------
GET /Jim%20Harwell%20Website/ClearExternalAll.swf HTTP/1.1
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
----------------------------------------------------------
GET /Jim%20Harwell%20Website/ClearOverPlaySeekMute.swf HTTP/1.1
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
----------------------------------------------------------
GET /Jim%20Harwell%20Website/MojaveOverAll.swf HTTP/1.1
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
----------------------------------------------------------

Notice that LiveMeeting.swf and finalorientation2.swf are searching for
the skin .swf files in the same folder as video2.htm.

If you put those three skin files into /Jim%20Harwell%20Website/ where
video2.htm is, I suspect it will work just fine - as I've said in every
reply to this thread.

If it doesn't, then it may have something to do with all those spaces
in the path. I highly recommend you avoid path/filenames with spaces.
Use _ or - in place of the spaces.


There was a missing .flv file, too:
----------------------------------------------------------
GET /Jim%20Harwell%20Website/video/Process%20Training. flv HTTP/1.1
HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
----------------------------------------------------------

HTH
