I used to publish flash-files online using the html-wrapper. The html-file, the swf-file are on the webserver. The mp4-video is located on the webserver as well, in the subfolder /video. This works fine, e.g. here http://www.real-time-response.de/actreactimpact/actreactimpact.html
(Perhaps?) after upgrading to Animate (I have not changed anything the project files as far as I'm concerned) and following the same publishing-procedure, the video files are not displayed anymore, e.g. here http://www.real-time-response.de/nixfestes/NixFestes.html
Testing the whole movie WITHIN Animate works perfectly well.
I am not sure how I can handle the problem. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Andreas
Here are two short clips:

Try the two links, the first one should respond better when you click around the timeline. My brother's download speed isn't too good either, I expect you'll do better than me.
You'll see that the file is twice as big to enable the streaming to work well. Given how small an area the video is in the Flash playback you should think about setting it to be 1280x720, and 1mbp

The file http://www.real-time-response.de/nixfestes/data/config.xml is missing.

Ups. Thank you. This was right.
But still, even if I upload config.xml into /data, the video will not be loaded 🙂

It is in the subfolder /video

You should change the URL you're trying to load then. At the moment you're trying to load http://www.real-time-response.de/nixfestes/nixfestes.mp4 , and it's not there. Whatever tries to load the video should be changed to read http://www.real-time-response.de/nixfestes/video/nixfestes.mp4 if that's where the file is.

Thank you for your help, Colin.
If I now copy the mp4 into the main folder /nixfestes (what I have done), still the video is not playing.

Your MP4 is made in such a way that the entire file has to download before it can be used, and it's massive. I'm downloading it now, and can try other settings. Will let you know how it goes.

It was going to take 6 hours of uploading the test files (at my brother's place, and his Internet upload speed isn't too quick). I'll post links in a short while.

Thank you very much Colin - that was obviously the main issue.
If I downsize the video, one does not have to that long. It seemed that the video did not load at all. But it only took some time.
Thanks again.
