Re: FLASH: embedding quicktime

[Phil Ward]

Hi Lee,


There must be a time delay in NZ as I posted a reply to this last week,

...let's try again:)


----------------------------------------

You can't *include* a QT movie in a flash movie...you can import a QT, add

layers of interactivity above the QT and then export to QT format which will

give you a stand alone QT movie with a flash layer sitting on top of the

QT....which is what the manual is saying.


To include in a cd presentation you will need to make an external call via

FS command to launch the QT movie which will then open in QT player if

installed.


The other option is to export your QT as BMP sequence and import into

flash..but this really bloats the fla and can slow things down a lot.
