Re: FLASH: Can this be done?

[Brian]

Well, I went and performed a test on adding Flash animation to a QT movie,

and you know what? It worked.

All I did was make sure the frame count in Flash was the same as the QT

movie, imported the movie, put it in its own layer, and when you scrub the

playback head you can see the individual frames in the movie and know pretty

much exactly where to place the animated Flash stuff.


I did, however, encounter something that begs explanation: The QT movie had

two tracks of audio. When we exported the QT from Flash, the audio tracks

were, how should I put it... goofed up. One track has a speaking part, and

then afterwards there is a sound effect on a second track, which in the QT

movie itself plays back all hunky-dory... however, the second track with the

sound effect - which doesn't come in until after the speaking part is done -

has an empty (no sound data) section while the voice track played. In the

exported QT movie BOTH sound channels played at the same time, which was

absolutely incorrect. What in the heck did Flash do with all the empty

section at the beginning of the second track?!? It just did away with it!!

What is THAT all about?
