RE: [flexcoders] What is a "transcoding" error in Flexbuilder 2?

Yeah, as I said, the file path is correct, the file is there, and it also shows up in the application after compiling, so that’s why I’m baffled about the error.

Transcoding is what happens to convert one form of encoding (i.e. a GIF) to another form of encoding (SWF).  In this case, its really just a "wrap SWF asset up for use inside the application" transcoder.

 

But anyway, the error here is that it couldn't resolve (locate) the file.  Make sure your relative path is correct.

Subject: [flexcoders] What is a "transcoding" error in Flexbuilder 2?

I am getting some errors in the Flexbuilder 2 Alpha which have me perplexed.  I am embedding a .swf file in my application with:

 

<mx:Image source="@Embed('assets/titleBackground.swf')" creationCompleteEffect="{SlowFade}"/>

 

And it works fine.  The .swf displays as expected, and is in the proper asset folder in my project.  However, today I am getting these error messages every time I compile:

 

“Unable to resolve assets/titleBackground.swf for transcoding.”

“Unable to transcode assets/titleBackground.swf”

 

What do those mean?  The only thing I could find in the help docs about transcoding was:

 

“The following example points to an ambiguously typed source property and specifies a MIME type so that Flex uses the proper transcoder to import the resource:

[Embed(source="http://getpic.com/getsvg", mimeType="image/svg")]

var pic:String; “

 

But I don’t see how that would relate to my project.  Just an “Alpha” thing?  Thanks for any insight.
