I have a game that I made in flash, and now I want to take all the movieclips I have and export the images into something that I can use outside of flash. What would be the easiest way to do this? I would rather not use screenshots, plus, I need to keep the transparency.

View 5 RepliesI have to convert a flash file to a big screen it will just be animation in Flash CS4 and there may be jpeg graphics imported into the animation. I have been given screen dimensions to use but they are in millimeters. This is the information I have been given :-
Bumper banners: w- 1,200mm x h- 6,048mm
Full screen: w - 8,062mm x h- 5,184mm
Small screen: w- 8,062mm x h- 5,184mm
The video needs to be DVD quality full PAL MPEG2
1. What should I do to make this scale properly from Flash on my PC to a big screen tv. Do I need to obtain the size of the big screen in pixels and make the animation this size in flash?
2. Also I wondered if you knew what bumper banner means I have emailed the person I am dealing with back and still awaiting a response?
3. I have been told that it needs to be in full PAL MPEG2 can flash convert to MPEG2 and will this have any affect on the scaling or quality of the animation?
4. Also does it matter what frames per second I use I am using the default of 12 fps is this ok?
I have an animated GIF file that I am trying to convert to Flash using Adobe Fireworks. I can't get the Flash version to loop. I want it to replay indefinetely. I have attached the files so somebody can take a look.
I don't know Flash and the only reason I am using Fireworks (a trial version at this point in time) is because another person said this was the best way to do this.
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.

View 1 RepliesI want a little greeter guy on my website. I have received a .mov from Adobe Premiere with a transparent background. I opened this in Adobe After Effects, went to composition->add to render queue, I set the output format to FLV with RGB+Alpha and Audio included. I then uploaded the FLV to my webserver, opened the FLV from my server into Flash Professional, chose a FLVPlayBack Skin and selected the "already deployed" option for the source of my file. I then File->Export to a .swf and upload the .swf back to my server. When I embed this into my home page, the guy does not load all the way, I get about 5 seconds worth. The SWF is around 50 KB and the FLV is around 18,000 KB. The video is 1 minute 15 seconds long.

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.

I'm not really a codec expert (just starting ;)), so I don't know what to make of most of that. Here is a zip that contains one of the frames and the video output.

Fireworks or Flash This question is Not Answered.(Mark as assumed answered) My website was completely designed in fireworks. I'm told that can't be done but home 2000.com, there it is. I now want to switch to flash. I am having an understanding problem in converting the Fireworks png files to Flash.
1. Fireworks I saved as a swf file.
2. I tested the swf. (The file is basically a one-page display with rollovers that would each create a large picture in the middle of the screen when rollover. I believe when I call a rollover might also be called a hotspot. the problem I'm having with the saved swf file is all of the images continuously execute like a movie without stopping. This is in contrast to the purpose of the display area. It is supposed to only display the large image when someone rolls over the hotspot.
3. A third and separate issue is converting the Java navigation displayed on the left side to flash. I have asked many times for help on this and other forums and nobody can seem to come up with a way that I can duplicate, fairly closely, the navigation system that I'm using. it's nothing more than the all typical looking tree menu with two basic issues.
a. Swap out the Menu on top of screen that holds the six hotspots.
b. Swap out the large display area that holds the new eight hotspots.
c. Display an image or text in the TVBox, our term for small display area at bottom of navigation frame.
If you go to my site you will see one of the displays on the home page. Is this a large display area with the eight hotspots that I'm trying to export.
I have managed to put some captions on a video file and would now need to get this video back into flv format to put it online;..I tried with the cs3 video encoder but it wouldn't let me.... So my questions are:
1. Is it actually possible to convert my swf file into flv with cs3 video encoder ...which would be logical as it is a flash file...
2. What is the best option I Have to convert my swf file with captions without losing the captions...
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?
View 7 Replieshow 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

View 6 RepliesI am using Adobe Air to get data from SalesForce, and present it in a datagrid. I am using a query to get the data, and then put it into an arraycollection that is bound to the datagrid, this works correctly and the data is displayed. The problem is that I want to convert the Account Id in the Event to show the account Name. To do this I am using the following code:-
_serviceWrapper.query( "Select * From Event order by StartDateTime asc", new mx.rpc.Responder( eventQueryHandler, faultHandler ))}
protected function eventQueryHandler(qr:ArrayCollection):void {
var acctIdss:String = "";
for each(var contact:DynamicEntity in qr) {
[Code] .....
This works and displays the Account Name, the problem is that when I use this script and then Sync Changes to SalesForce all the records that have been displayed are identified as needing to be syncronised even if they have only been displayed. If I skip the function eventQueryHandler, and link my query to the OnQueryResult function then there is no problem, but only the Account Id can be displayed. How can I stop Air marking these records as having changed, or is there a better way to achieve this?

View 1 RepliesI have to convert a MovieClip to ByteArray and send it to php using the POST method. The person handling php says that only ByteArray needs to be send and conversion to JPG and PNG can be done from PHP side. When I built the option for saving on the local machine the following steps were used.
Converting to Bitmapdata
Using JPGEncoder and PNGEncoder on the Bitmapdata
Then assiging to byte array variable.
So in this case different byte arrays were used for saving in case of JPG and PNG and it worked.
I found the code to convert movieclip to bytearray in Stackoverflow itself

And this traces false. I also tried parseInt and get a type coercion error.
i have a .swf which i have downloaded on the internet it is a animation that i would very much like to have it in my .swf however, when i am loading it and trying to control the .swf i get a error code.TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::AVM1Movie@10d52701 to flash.display.MovieClip.
i searched the net for this error and it is because the .swf is compiled in as1/2 therefore i am unable to get it's "object" and control it.i have also decompiled the .swf and read the codes, but the codes are mostly done in as1/2 and i have no clue what it does, as i just started learning as3 , and have never touched as1/2.the below is the code decompiled, from what i understand it is used to "shift" the parts of the animation. which is a "fish" body part, to create a very smooth, swimming action. i have tried converting it to as3 code but i get errors where it cant find the variables.

Am updating a 2D game I made to have an isometric view, problem is am having issues when converting the 2d coordinates of given movieclips into isometric ones. The way I converted my game into an isometric one is just by rotating rectangular graphic 45 degrees and increasing its width such that its 2 times the height.I having problems converting all my 2D coordinates into isometric ones.Is there a function to convert them, or a mathematical formula I could use? by the way the game am making is not tile based, so functions that use tiles to convert the coordinates are not going to work unfortunately.
EDIT: I managed to fix it, I just changed the alignment to be the upper left corner, i.e. though the game is isometric and has a demimonde shape, I imagined that it is contained in a box, and that box's upper left edge is where it is aligned...this way both x and y coordinates r the same ones in both 2D and "isometric" view.
These stories are already made in flash. My problem is how to add to the storys That app. Initially one of the approaches was to create an app in Coco2D and make the animations in this language (converting the animations in pictures). However due to possess many animations and sounds, this process is very complicated Thus, I asked opinions on what approach should I do to solve this problem.
View 1 RepliesI just started using AS3, I'm trying to do is pipe xml data to flash to be stylized in a text field, then save as transparent png. Right now I have a problem; when I run the script with this.addChild(this); it takes a snap of only the first entry, and only the first entry to output. If I leave that out, it sends all 750 entries to the output screen, and it parses the xml like it should (w/ out the text clear at the end, it applies all 750 entries filter styles to the one textfield). So I'm assuming everything is working right with parsing the xml, and it's just getting hung up. I'm assuming I have this setup all wrong, but it's the only way I could get it to work... this.addChild(this); just seems wrong, but it's the only way I could snag root, and write it.
Here's my code (I don't need this all proper for use on a website or anything, just to run a few times to batch out some xmls).
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.text.TextField;
var myXML:XML;
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code] .....
There's no code implemented for saving the bitmap data to png. I'm using cs3 right now, so no FileReference.save() feature. I plan on finishing it on a buddies box w/ cs5. On a side note - Would it be possible to compile this with flashdevelop to get this feature? I've never used it...
Here's an example of my xml:
<game titlem="filenameoutput"></game>
<namem desc="name description"></namem>
<manu manufact="manufacturer"></manu>
<year yearmade="19xx"></year>
Probably not the best, but the best I could manipulate the source file w/ regular expressions and sed, and still have it work with the xml tutorial I was referencing. I can try again if it needs to be setup differently. Is it possible in as3 to create a gradient that has one color on top and one on the bottom? I've always failed miserably creating these in previous versions, so I didn't even try.
I've got a FLA file making an animated banner. When I export it as an animated GIF, the background (which originally is a solid color) has either dots or crosses making up the color. I've tried different settings such as dithering, changing the palette but have had no luck. And I'm using one of the 256 colors. Using a FLA that did have a good solid bg converted animated GIF, I tried to export that one as well and it comes up with the same problem. So that means it's not the color/fla that is wrong, but is my exporting to animated gif method.
Attached is how the background turns out:
I ones surfed by a site where i could write text in one field, and then press a button which then converted the text (all special letters) to flash, in another field! you know: & = %26.
