Hi there,
Matthias kindly posted in this list an example on how to embed an SWF
video into another SWF (thread starting from
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/swftools-common/2008-11/msg00148.html),
I have used this method to embed two movies at the presentation at
http://www.ousia.tk/freeculture.php.
Then you know the method works.
Many thanks for your help, Chris.
I know that the method worked fine, at least with a previous version and
not having sound any of the couple of movies.
But I wouldn't discard a bug in embedding SWF video.
But with the following movie with sound
(http://www.ousia.tk/thisland.swf), compiling the code above, the output
doesn't play (http://www.ousia.tk/this-land.swf).
Then there has to be something wrong with this swf. Corrupt in some way.
I played it back in a browser, it doesn't appear to work properly.
Do you think video is corrupt because it isn't played properly or do you
have another reason?
Having a container (http://www.ousia.tk/container.swf) and putting it on
page 2 doesn't help either (http://www.ousia.tk/embedded.swf).
Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug here?
If the embedded swf is corrupt, wrapping it in a container will
not help it be uncorrupted!
I agree.
But even replacing page 2 from container with the original presentation
(http://www.ousia.tk/thisland.swf) doesn't play the video on page 2
(http://www.ousia.tk/direct-embedding.swf).
It seems as if I had hit a bug. Or two, I'm not sure.
Could any swftools developer check this?
IncidentallY..
Shouldn't,
.swf movie "thisland.swf"
actually be,
.swf movie "this-land.swf"
Having,
.flash filename="this-land.swf"
will wipe out your original swf file, since they both have the
*same* file name.
Sorry, I'm afraid I don't get it.
.swf movie should have a different value than .flash filename, because
the former is the source file and the latter is the output file. (Names
are very similar, I agree, but they aren't the same name.)
Having the same name for both would only delete the source file.
Or am I missing something here?
Thanks for your help,
Pablo
