I am working on a MAC right now and am wondering for a future project how to make a flash file into an mpeg4 file. I'm going to take the mpeg4 file and move it to iDVD to create a file that is compatible with DVD players. I'll also make the menu options there since I think to create DVD menu options in Flash involves a lot of ActionScript and I'm not THAT advanced with AS. I'm also using Flash CS4 for all of this and iDVD 8. I know that there are some video converters out there, but I didn't know if that was the way to go or if there was a pre-built option for that either in Flash or iDVD. I've been looking for one but haven't found it.
I've created short two and a half minute animation which needs to be converted to a video file.
The animation contains various movie clips and run in conjunction with an overall audio backing track.
It's my understanding that nested movie clips won't work when I export to video due to them having a timeline of their own however having a flash file with everything on the master time line would contain too many layers and frames to be manageable.
Is there any way I can export my file to video (avi, mpeg etc) or do I need to get some third party software, in which case any advice on those?
I want to import a .mp4 video into my Flash application. The player is Flash Lite 3.1, using ActionScript 2.0. I tried the code like this:
PHP Code:
video_mc.play(videoname.mp4);
But it's running very slow in the divice. It takes very long time to start playing, and the video pictures are jerky. How can I improve it to make the video runing more faster and fluent? Should I add more code to the AS2?
I just spent way too long making an animated banner ad...fade-ins, tweens etc. I sent as a swf.Now they say they can take only anim gifs, gifs, or jpgs.a gif or jpg would mean a stagnant ad, correct?When I change publish settings to animated gif, it gets all screwed up. kind of posterized Is my only choice to recreate the ad in Photoshop as an animated gif?[URL]
I created an animation in Flash and added audio to go with it. I need to export to a movie file so I can eventually turn it into a FLV file for the web. The problem is the audio is about 5 minutes long and it doesn't seem like Flash can support this long of a timeline. Does anyone know of an easier way to combine my animation and audio?
I created a swf file useing Flash and need to convert this to a mov file. I watched a training video and under Publish Settings > Format their should be a Quicktime mov option. I do not have this option on my CS5 Flash version. Also, if I try to export as a mov file, nothing happens. I have QuickTime Player version 7 on my computer. It just will not show up as an option in Flash. How do I convert a swf file to a mov file without going online and purchasing a converter?
I have a flash file where i load a remote SWF file into my own, now what i want to do is convert that remote SWF file into a gif that i can save onto my server. The remote file is a swf that has a variable amount of frames, and i somehow need to be able to figure out the amount of frames (i presume), and take a snapshot (picture) of every frame, to turn the taken pictures / into a gif file. That's what i THINK has to be done, however i have no idea if it's even possible to take pictures / snapshots of remote swf files.
Does anyone know of an effective way to do this, besides using converters? I created a menu like controller that will control the PPT once it's been converted to a swf. I've tried everything, and am hoping I won't have to just copy the data into an .fla by hand.
Does anyone know what the best way is to convert a flash file to a .mov or .avi file?I thought maybe if I did "export" to a quicktime movie, it would do it, but when I was looking at all the settings, there are so many of them, I don't know what to choose!I have received specs that the flash file I have need to be converted to a .mov file, and here are the specs:Video must be a minimum resolution of 720 x 540. It will be resampled to 1280x540. Video chould be progressive video, square pixel (1:1) and supplied in .mpgeg2 or uncompressed .mov format.
What is the best way to convert an animation created in Flash to a .mov file. I've tried the export movie command in the file menu, changing various settings in the publish settings in Flash and and in the Quicktime options boxes. But the resulting .mov file has all kinds of fragments and artifacts. Has anybody had any luck creating animations in Flash and then converting them into a format that can be assemble in iMovie?
how to convert my curent Flash Professional project into an AIR project.
I've been using Flash Pro to do animations with some minor coding in the frames, and I'm using Flash builder to do the coding. However I realized that my application needs to be able to use the File system, which means I'll need to use AIR's API. However there's no way for me to import AIR's library to my flash builder project
I'm trying to post a Quicktime movie into Flash CS3, but my FLV file looks AWFUL when compared to the original Quicktime video. When importing the Quicktime video, I've tried all kinds of settings. (Soreson Sparks was the worst.) I've changed the quality, the data rate, and the frame rate; I've selected "deinterlaced" and deselected "deinterlaced." I've changed the key frame placement and interval and left them alone. I am all out of ideas. I am grinding my teeth.
By creating some kind of var or something, is there any way I can call up a Quicktime video into Flash without actually converting it into an FLV file? It was suggested that I make an SWFObject2, How to make my video look better. I just want my video to look like it does in Quicktime.
I wrote a big Actionscript project using AS3 as an "Actionscript Project" in Flash Builder 4.5. I have a bunch of solid, reusable, code, but one of the big components is a main.as file that extends Sprite and serves as the display code for my application. I now, for various reasons, need that to be a Flex application. I'm trying to get the most minimal wrapper possible, so here's what
I am converting a .MOV file from After Effects in Flash Video Converter. I have jacked the quality to 2500. Although the audio is still dodgy and the video quality is still low. One of the biggest problems is that the images scale up in AE and when they are converted and played they jitter. Very dodgy and this project needs to be crystal clear.
I am curious about where I can find sound files that I can use in Flash CS4 or some software that may be usefull in creating/editing/converting sound files to .wav or .mp3 for use in Flash. I should probably also note that although I do have Flash CS4 I am very low on funds for software
I have CS3, but was trying out the CS5 trial. Unfortunatedly i forgot to save my .fla back to something CS3 could use! Smooth I know, but does anyone know of a way to convert back, or would anyone with CS5 be able to save my file as something CS3 could use? If that is even possible.

I have an old FLA (from Flashkit) which works ok in Flash Player 5, but will not work in Flash Player 10.
I would like to have it converted so it will work in Flash Player 10, AS 2 (not 3!), for CS 4. I am using a Mac. would be willing to pay a reasonable sum of $ via PayPal for this work. I do not think it should take much time (it is a small file).
I am working on a project in Flash which the user can draw some animation and then covert the final product as an FLV file so he can share it on facebook and youtube.
I have an assignment to create an mp3/wav file using flash. This player is expected to record voice from a speech mic and also be controlled by a foot pedal. How to record voice data and convert it into .mp3 file but haven't found anything yet.
I have a flash file that is just a lot of tweening thrown together to form an animation, and I want to use it as a movie object within another flash file. I was wondering if there was any quick way to do this other than sharing the library of the file and then copying all the frames (if that would work)?
I have used some text and coverted it into a button,
I have done my up over down and hit frames,
I have gone into actions and used the following code,
on (press) {getURL ("http://www.google.com"); }
when i do a test movie i get the follwoing error
**Error** Symbol=Symbol 96, layer=actions, frame=1:Line 1: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances on (press) { Total ActionScript Errors: 1 Reported Errors: 1
Basically, I have a FLVplayer called vidPlayer and 3 dynamic text fields that put text in when they are clicked. I want to be able to keep the button clicked in the 'over' state, and to do this I believe arrays are needed? Also, an array might be easier, as there is a lot of code to sift through. below is the code for the buttons in my flv;
