RE: FLASH: Corporate Presentation

[Vega, Eric]

James,

	I also purchased Flash 4 with Corp. Presentations in mind.  I have

since switched to Director since importing digital video is embedded in it.

Something you might want to check out.

I understand that and wouldn't expect it to either. 

However, it would be nice that if video were embedded

into the flash movie, it would just rely on the user's

local video player but still allow it to stay within

the flash movie and not have to open a new window or

application.  If the user didn't have the correct

video player, it would just show the class X or broken

graphic type icon.  Isn't that the way powerpoint

(*shudder*) works - it doesn't play the AVI, the

windows media player (or whatever) plays the AVI, but

it gets to stay embedded within the presentation.


Maybe logic could be built into the movie to detect a

video player and if not available, write a message

saying "you need to download ...." all within the

flash movie.


Am I wrong in thinking that the video MUST open a new

window or player?  My apologies as I haven't done much

testing on this since this thread started.
