Exporting A Swf As An Animated .gif The Correct Way?
Nov 17, 2009
I have read all kinds of posts on this, most are old from back in the early 00's. I have some flash banners that I made that need .gif back ups and I find myself pretty screwed if I can't do this. I tried exporting an .swf thru the publishing settings in Flash and no matter which setting I choose the gifs are pixelated and very bad quality. I just finished reading a post where it said to use the file - export from the menu which I did use and the quality is much better but nothing near acceptable for the client.
I also read to export the swf to Quicktime and QT can convert to animated gif so while I look at that option is there someone that can point me in the right direction as this could spell trouble for me if I cannot come up with a solution as I have multiple swfs that need to go through Google analyctics and need the gif back ups.

I've created a small banner ad and need to export it as an animated gif. The problem is, when I open the gif after exporting it, there's no animation. The way the animation is set up is 1 frame on the main timeline, and a scrolling movie clip as the background. There is no actionscript at all in the file.

When I publish the animation as an animated GIF, not only is the animation slower, but the colors lost their transparency, and the weight blows up 50 times.Here are the two:[URL]

I've read it's impossible to a export a scripted animation into one animated PNG while retaining any of the AS3-triggered actions (whether in Timeline or Classes). This also seems to be the case with animated GIFS. The problem is, having a 27 x 27 stage, my .MOV files are still huge. Do I have to give up, or is there a hidden workaround for exporting animated GIFs with AS3?

I have created a character for animation in illustrator and saved each symbol nessesary as a movie clip.After finally coming up with a decent animation everything seemed fine and exporting as a .swf looked great. When trying to export as a .gif however I get a singal non animated image. I've been looking for a simple answer to this problem such as Radtool converting a .swf or.avi to a gif and it give me a file not found error. I've attempted turning all of my symbols into graphics and I get a single image when I try to view it in flash (ctrl + enter). I've tried saving it as a bitmap and batching in photoshop with more error. I've tried going into flashes publish setting and saving an animated gif. Every export format I choose seems to give me a single non animated image except for .swf.

I'm unable to export an animated symbol to image sequence properly because the symbol does not animate.I created the tweens in multiple layers, then cut-pasted all layers to a new symbol.I did this so I could then just do some tween motions on the symbol.The tweening is perfect, but when I export the image sequence, the images do not animate the way it does on the Flash player.All I get is an image sequence with the tweened symbol, but the symbol itself does not animate.how to get the symbol to animate when exporting the image sequence.
Alternatively, is there a way to motion-tween multiple layers simoultaneously? (Layers which are themselves tweened)Any additional info, I'll be checking regularly so I can provide as much description as possible to get this to work.

I know there is a new grounds link about setting your publishing settings to get animated gifs to work with flash. I am using CS4 and when I go to publish the gif works in the html document. But when I export to an animated gif it is still a still picture. I have also tried to export to a quicktime file and it's is a still picture there too and distorted. Should exporting to png or gif sequence work as well?

I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?

Am I completely hallucinating or what ? That's several years I'm working with Flash, and today, i want to do the simplest animation ever, and it just doesn't work....I want to mask an animated clip with an animated mask (a shape animation), but every time the mask arrives at a keyframe, the clip restarts to the frame 1 !!I added a piece of code to see at which keyframe it is blocked, and at every mask keyframe, the code says 'TypeError: Error #1009: null property..

I've just finished a sizeable project in Flash CS4. I've come to export it as SWF but it just won't work, it seems to export but no icon appears, it doesn't work when I test the movie within Flash either.
Older versions of the project work, it's just the final version that has decided to be awkward, this is the latest in a long line of errors I've encountered.

How can I turn my Flash 8 animation into an FLV file?The only solution I've found is exporting it as a .MOV file.But to do this I have to use Flash 5, which destroys my animation since there's no movieclip filters.
There has to be a way to do this, or Adobe is just retarded for not seeing the massive need for animators uploading to the web via FLV. My searches online for a solution have been fruitless.

I have a movie that uses a couple audio files. When I run this as a swf, everything plays fine...Except at the end.I have a frame that says thankyou.play(). That is tied to a mediaDisplay component. When I put a trade for thankyou.onSoundComplete....Nothing happens.So with the Flash still working fine for the most part, I export the movie as a Quicktime movie. It plays the intro audio but never moves forward from there.The background noise is gone.

I'm trying out the trial version of Flash Professional CS5 and have a very short animation that I am trying to export.It exports just fine as .swf and .html, but the quality is awful when I try to export it as .mov.I will, in the end, want to upload my finished animation to YouTube,If I could just get the animation to run smoothly as a .mov I'd be set.

I'm having a really weird problem exporting a library asset (movieclip) to a swc file. This should be really simple to do... The strange thing is, if I do not include the outside code in my project, when I try to export the asset as a swc, it will give me errors, but it will also create the file with no problem. If I include the outside code and export the library asset as a swc, it compiles with no errors but it NEVER WRITES THE FILE! This makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Has anyone else run into this problem and if so, how did you fix it? If I repeat the same process in windows I do not see the same issue, it creates the swc without any hesitation. Is there a weird setting in Mac OSX that I need to change maybe?

So I made an animation a while ago and exported it no problem as an .avi. Recently I've needed to make changes, but whenever I try to export it, it is a blank video.
There is no sound, so I'm not sure whether or not that is working, but the video turns out as just a black movie with the proper length.
When I test it in flash or export it as a .swf, it is fine, only the .avi is the problem.

My text is displaying at the wrong size within flash, and when I export it, the text looks completely different. It's making it extremely difficult to work on my site, because any graphics I align with the text are way off when I preview the file.
Notice how the green bar didn't change size, but in the preview image, the bar is way longer than the text. I have been working on this site for a while, and I had no trouble with it until today. Now all of my text in all of the files is screwed up in flash, but still looks fine in the html page.. I need to get this fixed so I can keep working on it

When you export a flash movie that is set up at 25fps out as a QT movie at 25fps, shouldn't it open up in Quicktime player with FPS equalling 25?When I do it, it shows the FPS in Quicktime player as 18 FPS or 8 FPS which screws playback up when i import into Premiere

I've just spent a bit of time making a animation, and created this animation within a movie clip. I did this because i planned to add a button at the beginning to start playing this movie clip, but since then ive scrapped that idea.
Whilst trying to export the file as either .swf/.gif/.avi etc. It's just creating a file with the image of the first frame.

Seemingly randomly, my all of my static text in my swf gets shifted down 10 or so pixels. I go back to my FLA, and everything is lined up. what could be going on?
This morning I walk in, and all my text is shifted IN my fla, which i definitely did not do.

I am having trouble exporting my animations created in Flash CS5 (or Macromedia flash 5, or CS3) to .MOV files. I'm having these issues on different platforms (mac and pc) and different operating systems (XP and win 7) - I only get error messages and out of memory errors, even on the fastest computer I have with 4gig of RAM working on a 2mg Flash file. I just want to convert my Flash files to a format that can play on Youtube and standard DVD players. Also I've tried many converters (flash to video) - not all free (Moyea, Roxio, iWisoft, Winfx Video Converter, Amor, E.M. Magic, etc, etc) - nothing works. The main problems are either the sound is not synched, the playback is choppy, and the quality is awful. I think my only hope of getting a good video is starting with a good .MOV file exported from Flash. [URL]..
