RE: FLASH: MP3 and Flash size problem URGENT

[Kevin Hays]

In this same vein, I have noticed that projects with raw 44.1k 16bit audio

take  FOREVER to compress into swf file.  Yes the result is small and sounds

good but the FLA file is bulky and slow to work with.  I was hoping that

importing mp3 files at the final target compression rate would result in no

re-compression of the file.


Is all this true?


Thanks for any help,

    ...Kevin

Sorry, I disagree...


Use completely uncompressed sound when you import it into flash. Set bit

rate and quality of the mp3 in File->Publish settings->Flash


double compressing the sound will destroy the quality.


Make sure the sound is in mono if you are trying to save space.


Have you considered using a loop instead of the whole tune?

You need a good program like Cool Edit Pro or Sonic

Foundry to reduce the bit rate of the MP3 and crunch

it's size down.
