Everything looked fine when previewed in Flash but the quality is terrible in HTML. I'm using jpeg images. I tried boosting the quality up to 100 and it's still bad.. I provided some screenshots. I'm thinking this might be related to dimensions?

I have a simple Flash project.It includes some jpg images with text on them.When I export and the click on the swf file locally, the quality is very clear.When I open the html file to view the embedded swf, the quality is severely degraded.Is there anything I can do to help this? This is the html file with the degraded pictures (most notable in the text).If you click through you will see some of the text is really hard to read, where if I view the swf file locally it is perfectly clear.In publish settings I have jpg quality set to 100%.

I have images being dynamically loaded into a html textfield and they look very pixelated. I am able to getImageReference via an id attribute in the <img> tag, but I can't apply smoothing to this DisplayObject because I can't access it's content which is the bitmap. I know the image is loading and I know the reference is working because I can call the id name, I can scale, rotate change the alpha and apply filters. I have tried setting the stage quality to best, but that doesn't make a difference. If I do an addChild(loadedObject) as a test, the image is loaded (not in the text field) and looks beautiful no pixelation at all.
Here is the error I am getting:
1119: Access of possibly undefined property content through a reference with static type flash.display: DisplayObject.
Here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
var loadedObject:DisplayObject = testText_4.getImageReference('image_mc');
var myBitmapData:BitmapData = Bitmap(loadedObject.content).bitmapData.clone();
When publishing a project from Camtasia Studio 7, the params list includes a setting for quality. But instead of the usual "high" value, it sets it to "best". I Google'd and searched these forums but had no luck finding any definitive explanation if these two settings are equivalent. Can anybody enlighten? This topic also spurred another question, does the quality default to the highest value if the parameter value is invalid?
View 2 RepliesI have a flash presentation thats for a supermarket TV screen. Its big in file size 9.6MB. When I go file/export/export movie to quicktime and use the animation settings the file plays but leaves trail lines behind, skips frames and looks crap.
The quicktime settings I've used are either:
Animation
Quality Best
Millions of colours
All Key frames
24fps
or
DV - PAL
Frame rate 24fps
Quality Best
I need it to look high quality but I am not sure what settings to use.

I'm looking to upgrade from Flash 8 Professional to the newest version. Has the quality of imported sounds improved beyond the tinny, in-the-submarine effect?
View 2 RepliesIn Flash I have some PNG images, and I wish these images to become 50% larger on hover. However the tween I have used to make them larger distorts the quality of the images considerably.
For the tween I am not using any external libraries and I am using a standard scaleX tween.
Is there a way around this loss of quality?
I have this simple code to access the webcam:[code]The quality of the video is extremely bad, with big compression fragments.I am using a built-in webcam as test, so I don't expect too much. But what I see is not normal for my webcam.So how do I set the quality of the video?I cannot see any difference in quality if I remove the setQuality call.

I'm thinking of developing an application with Adobe Flash CS4 but I'm having some serious quality issues when importing material from Adobe Photoshop CS4 and Adobe Fireworks CS4.When I import the material as a bitmap, the quality is better (then importing as movieclip) but not good enough.I was just wondering, how do the pro's do it? All the big companies, organizations ect ect.
View 1 Repliesam using Flash CS5 and Photoshop CS3. The issue I am facing is while exporting from photoshop (optimized for web and devices) as png-24 , most of the images lose their quality inside flash. I have tried to make the publish settings for image quality 100. On lossless compression of the images, the image gets blurry. The total quality of display is highly degraded in flash in comparison to that of photoshop
View 1 RepliesI remember i realised this ages ago, but never really needed anything with it till now. I think it was after flash mx that imported images, when rotated or scaled loose quality horribly.

I'm building a project and I need the audio to be of the highest quality when played back. I am using .wav files and I'm not too sure how to make them work.
I've tried the: play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playSound);
function playSound(event:MouseEvent):void{
SoundMixer.stopAll();
var s1:Sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("Sound.wav"));
s1.play()
But I guess it doesn't work because it's not mp3. I also tried embedding it into the hit and down parts of my button but the playback is weird, it plays slower and broken up. I'd like there to be some sort of function buttons such as play, pause, stop and some kind of time slider like for video playback if that's possible too?
I'm trying to get a high quality video into a flash document. I would like it to stream the flv from the website it will be posted on.
The source file is a 640x480 quicktime file (H264 compression)however viewing it at 640x480, I notice that there is pixelation instead of a clean and crisp image, I look at the source, it's clean and crisp. how can I import a nice high quality video into flash without that nasty pixelation?
I have been facing with some issues with lags in my Flash applications and wondering if it is possible to dynamically set Graphic Quality in Flash based on user's machine spec or connection speed so that I can set the Graphic Quality to Medium or even Low when the user's machine is unable to handle it.
View 2 RepliesSo I have recently aquired Flash CS4 and the Quicktime Export is completely different from any version before.I create a lot of 3-4 minute shorts in Flash and have always enjoyed the ease of QT export, but when I export with CS4 I get all kinds of ghosting, even on 5-10 second clips so breaking up the fla file's scenes is no help.After doing a lot of online research I see a few people have similar problems, but no concrete explanations or solutions.Has Flash-to-Quicktime compatability been disabled?I see that the "Quicktime Movie" export options is not available, only the "Quicktime" export, which yields inferior results. Since I export to the web and for dvd I don't want to have to export PNG sequences and rebuild the soundtrack, but is there simply no longer quality compatability between the two programs?Do I need to ditch Flash for Toon Boom?
View 8 RepliesI have a logo which I have created in photoshop, it is made up of 4 layers, some of which I want to animate. I create my movie, I do so by opening my PSD file and then animating the layers.

I need my website to scale to different screen resolutions, so this can be a problem. Is there any way to make images smoother when the flash file is enlarged beyond it's native resolution? I really need to know since my website has to scale to a LOT of resolutions.
there's a video playing, and it moves around and changes size as the user navigates around the page. I notice when it gets small, the video quality gets bad on it. how to retain its quality, and resize it in a different way? To note: The video quality was bad when the css for the flash video was set to width and height of 100%. However, when I made it centered, and set it for width and height, it was good, even though it was presented at the same size within the swf. Maybe that same idea could apply within the actionscript?
