Professional :: Animating Music Video - Frame Rate In CS4
Nov 17, 2010
I am a student and I use CS4 on a Mac on one of the schools computers. One of the animation projects I am working I need to animate a music video. To do this I calculated out the BPM of the song and set the frame rate at 23.3 FPS so that I would have 20 Frames between beats. Then to have a visual representation of the timing I set a layer that has a red dot blink for 2 frames every 20 frames starting on the first beat.
With it set up like this and I run the animation in Flash it keeps time correctly and works. However, when I test the video the time is off. I tried changing the frame rate to 60fps as an arbitrary number to see if adjusting the frame rate had any affect of the test file but when I tested the video at 60fps it did not run any faster than before. I exported the video to a SWF and MOV file but it was still off.

Just like the subject states, I am indeed having frame rate problems importing video to Flash CS3. When I export a video from Premiere with the settings: 1280x720frame rate of 23.976using H264 or Animation (basically every codec produces the same results),"embed video on SWF and play in timeline" When I do this the file exports fine. Playing it in Quicktime works fine and the audio syncs up no problem. But when I import it into Flash using the same settings, for some reason the movie clip is now too fast in that the video does not match the audio and seems to be at more like 12 fps now (just a guestimate). The action of the video is over long before the audio even comes in.I have verified that the frame rate is correct in Flash so it's not that.
I've done this literally hundreds of times in the past and suddenly it does not work and I can not figure out why. I'm not even really using video, but actually artwork that I am putting together as an animatic for an animated piece so the video could not have been imported incorrectly or digitized wrong either.

I'm recording Webcam to FMS 3.5 but when I play the recorded video from FMS it's choppy. I have set the camera.fps to 30 but when I trace out the currentFPS for camera it's variable and usually falls between 20 and 30. However when I play the recorded video, netStream's currentFPS returns a lower value, something closer to 10. So my question is, 1) why currentFPS of netStream is not the same as Camera's? 2) What's the actual frame rate of the recorded video (not the netStream, but FLV's)?

set the frame rate of an externally loaded movie to a different frame rate than the movie it is embedded within.
I basically have a flash site that loads flash movies using loadMovie command, however, the frame is lost within these movies and simply adopts the main site frame rate.

I imported an avi video to flash, converted it to flv with Adobe media encoder, and did some symbol animation on top of it.How do I export an avi video so that the video I imported is actually playing, and not just to see the skin and flv icon? When I test the video it makes it in swf form and I'd rather not convert it any further and mess up it's quality.Is it possible to view the video in work space while animating symbols over it (I kinda did it by heart)?

I recently built a flash movie that I am going to export out into a quicktime movie for YouTube. I mistakenly built it with the frame rate of 12 fps and I need to switch it to 30 to make it compatible for YouTube.
My question is:
Is there an easy way to change the frame rate from 12 to 30 and keep the same timing that I have with the movie at 12fps? The only way I can think to do it is manually, but I was wondering if there is an easier way.

I've got various mc's sitting inside my overall site. The FPS of the overall site is 20 but I want to run another mc inside it at 10 and different one at 28.Is this an actionscript task or is there another way of doing it?

I have an older flash application, it uses actionscript 2. Its logic is heavily tied to the frame rate (using onEnterFrame lots of times). I need to accelerate its calculations.
The maxmimum frame rate Flash Professional lets me specify for it is 120. Is there any way to make this higher? I don't necessarily have to change the fla or the swf, being able to play it faster locally would be sufficient, if the flash player can be tweaked to accomplish that.

I understand that in order to make it consume less CPU cycles flash player forces the player to only execute at 2fps (or some other ridiculously low amount) when the swf is no longer in focus (or even if it's still "in focus" but not being rendered to the screen by virtue of being in a section of the browser window that's scrolled offscreen.) Is there any possible way to change this? I have a 3D engine that needs to keep the FR up.

What would be best practice for speeding up an animation? - Increase the frame rate, or is that considered cheating (already set to 25)? The alternative would be to manually adjust the length of the tweens on each layer.

Never thought waiting seven years to update my software would be such a relearning experience...lol In Flash MX to add audio into a movie clip, animation, etc, all you needed to was add the file to your library and drag it onto the frame in which you wanted the audio to play. However when I try this in CS5.5 nothing happens. I'm sure there's just a different implementation now, and I don't know what it is.

I got a MovieClip filled with a lot of others clips... When I change de X or Y value of this first MovieClip the frame rate slows down for during 1 frame. For exemple... I created a counter that returns around 30 mseconds every frame, but when I do this X or Y change the return is around 400 mseconds... When I try to fill the first MovieClip with less information it goes faster, about 100+-200 mseconds...

I suppose the title says it all. I can load an external video file (FLV) and I can have it play. I also have the custom buttons made to control the clip. The only thing I have left to do is to have the main timeline move onto frame 2 once the external video reaches its end. I am using actionscript 3 and flash cs 5.5.

Is it possible to set the frame rate of a movie through ActionScript 2? Is it possible to check it?
I've found many ways to check the rate at which it is playing, but I want, ideally, to be able to set the frame rate dynamically at runtime. I'm making a timer that uses flashing dots to show each unit of time, and I'd like to create a user interface so that someone playing the swf can set the time intervals without having to open the fla to change the frame rate.

I have button rollovers, that when at 40fps looks really nice, but when i change the timeline to 24fps, it looks terrible.

I CAN change the frame rate, like this:
[Code]....
But if I want to change these values I have a problem, I could create a button that says 'on(release){ mc1.framespersec(15);' but all this will do is increase the frame rate by 15, not make it 15.

I am creating a flash game that runs at 45 fps. When run either in a browser or on the desktop in Windows XP it looks smooth. When I view it in Windows 7 it is choppy - as if it was running at 15 fps. It is still processing correctly, it just looks bad. Does anyone know why this is? Is it just Windows 7 I have a test code snippet that shows this weirdness. Just paste the following into a new file and publish.
var nCounter:Number = 0;
var nColumn:Number = 9;
var nRow:Number = 5
var aBoxes:Array = new Array();
function setInit(){

Actually I am working in an image scroller project. It was working perfectly. But the client asked to do some updations. First of all please download the file that I have atached, which is a screen shot of user control page for image scroller. There is an user control page for image scroller. You can see many options there. In user control, scroller is specified as marquee scroller. There is an option, Speed of scroller, which denotes how quickly the image should scroll. The unit of this field is seconds. Because we are giving seconds in that field. A single image should move out of the stage with in the specified seconds in "speed of scroller" field.
var UnitDistPerSec:Number = Number(TransSpeed)*10; where "TransSpeed" denotes the speed we are given in the user control page. var FPS = 100; var ScrlConst = UnitDistPerSec/FPS;

I have a problem exporting a flash movie to a Quicktime movie with the correct frame rate. When I try to transfer it to a DVD that will play in loop, the video is jerking. I really need to get a 30 fps video.
I'm using Flash CS3 on Mac OS X. I built my flash animation with photos and text only (no SWF or movies linked or embeded, no actionscript, no sound, one scene only). The frame rate I specified in my flash movie is 30 fps. My scene format is 1360 x 768 pixels (16:9).
I need to export my flash movie in an almost uncompressed format to bring it to a DVD.
