Hello, i have a situation where i just want a character to sit in the corner of a website very lifelike, but not have any of the play/ pause controls, how can i remove them?

Kind regards,
Joshua

During FLV HTML export the content is split into three parts: two FLV videos (main content and standby motion) and one SWF file that loads and plays the video files. The buttons are part of the SWF file and can't be disabled as far as I can see. The only way would be to use the two exported FLV videos in your own FLV player, like JW FLV Media Player WidgetCast for example.

For the WebAvatar it is possible to disable the button by editing the exported Skin\default\layout.xml file (replace button url="Button1.swf" with button url=""). The downside is that because it does not autoplay, only the standby motion will be shown, though.

…

Hmm, this is a problem...
I will look into the various available players. i would have thought this would have been customizable, even if i was to make the buttons white, instead of the current icon

Does anyone else have any other suggestions?

Dear Joshua,

When you export FLASH file, you should get .flv, AC_RunActiveContent.js, FlashSwf.swf in a folder. You have to convert the FLV format to SWF format through third-party converter such as 4U FLV Converter and so on. Then, you can insert this SWF file into your webpage via webpage editor such as Dreamweaver and so on.

If you want to stop the FLASH looping, you have to add several HTML codes: <param name="LOOP" value="false"> and loop="false in <object>.

e.g. <object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="320" height="240">
  <param name="movie" value="da/001.swf">
  <param name="quality" value="high"><param name="LOOP" value="false">
  <embed src="da/001.swf" width="320" height="240" loop="false" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>
</object>
