flash (macromedia): This is going to sound very naive but I want to attach a player (play, pause,
rewind, etc) to my animation. I understand it does it automatically if it is a
..flv file. I downloaded a trial version of Flash CS3 thinking I could convert
my .fla file to .flv but that doesn't appear to be the case. So am I pursuing
the wrong course, can an .fla file be exported to a .flv file? My real problem
is for a WBT, I want consistency for pages that just have narration and pages
that have animation. I want the same controls on each page. Thanks for any
insight you can provide.

A fix!

QuickTime 7.2 requires your source video to be encoded at 44.100 kHz on the
Macintosh.

Step 1: I saved my movie from the original .dv file to .mov to de-interlace
the movie in QuickTime Pro.

Step 2: I saved my movie from .mov to .mp4 choosing the 44.100 kHz sound
setting using QuickTime Pro.

Step 3: I saved my .mp4 movie to .flv to use in Flash from QuickTime Pro.

My video plays all the way through now. :)

@markad007: What does that have to do with this topic? Please don't spam someones thread.

I have had problems with the .flv not playing properly exporting from
quicktime without taking the steps I mentioned above. If you export a .flv
from quicktime without encoding it at 44.100 kHz it most likely will only play
3 quarters of the way through your movie and then stop. I was just wanting to
share this bit of info with Jan808.

Sorry if I came across as posting on the wrong thread.

I see, next time please describe why you are posting something. "A fix!"
doesn't really explain what you are meaning to say, and why you are saying it.
Good tip though. I generally use SUPER to convert my MOVs to FLV, and it
defaults at that, so I haven't run into it. Also, If you just import the video
to a Flash document, it will encode properly.
