Using linked flv content in swf file -for deployment on Breeze server

Report · Nov 11, 2006

Can anyone tell me the procedure for creating swf and linked flv file with Sorenson Squeeze for deployment on the Breeze server or in Breeze Presenter? All Adobe will share is the how to this with Flash. I feel certain this can be done but all my attempts have failed to have the swf show the referred flv link. To interpret the Flash procedure, it seems that all one has to do is add /output "file name" to the swf player flve linked url, but the published flv file only shows a white screen. It does not seem to load the linked flv file - even if I have allowed public viewing of the flv content.

The procedure for creating the files with Sorenson Squeeze is the
same. You would then add via Adobe Presenter. Inside Powerpoint, go to
Breeze>Insert Flash. Or go to Breeze>Slide Properties and choose edit
and then point to the .flv file under the video dialogue box. Then
publish to Breeze.

You can also upload these files directly within a share pod within a
Breeze Meeting.

Hope this helps,

The procedure may be the same - I'm pretty familiar wit h that by now - but the results are not. I think the key difference is that the linked file url addendum "/output/filename" required from Breeze when creating the linked flv url call-out from the swf file, does not work is advertised in Sorenson Squeeze. Before attempting to insert this linked swf file in Presenter, I have attempted to elicit the same interactivity just by uploading the fwo files to the Breeze server. Sorenson does not seem to be able to recognize that additional linked url with the additional "output / file name" addendum that Breeze requires. I have replicated that same procedure in Flash 8 and the results work perfectly. I just don't like being forced to use a 900 lb gorilla like Flash 8 to create this simple task when a less costly program like Sorenson is squeeze should work correctly. Frankly, I think a lot of other Breeze authors, who are not as adept with this video encoding process, or who want to be using a developer tool like Flash to create their video clips. My experience with our users is that that most shy away from using video in Breeze because it is way too cumbersome. - Something Adobe should consider before more prospects move over to another similar authoring program that has actually dedicated itself to advancing their authoring software capabilities.

Hi,

Anybody knows any way to control the streaming´s properties into the Breeze Comm Server when i have access to an FLV via a Content Library Link?
Can i increase the buffer?...
