[Flashcoders] Exporting a movie file
I know you can export a frame of a movie clip to an image, but can flash export a movie clip to a video file (.mov)? Thanks Ross ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Exporting a movie file
You can save the fla as an avi file in your publish settings. Is this what you are looking to do? --Original Message-- From: Lehr, Ross (N-SGIS) Sender: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com To: Flash Coders List ReplyTo: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] Exporting a movie file Sent: Jan 18, 2010 12:18 PM I know you can export a frame of a movie clip to an image, but can flash export a movie clip to a video file (.mov)?

Do note that said video will miss several features, most importantly any actionscript used. Use some 3rd party converter instead, the built in exporter can best be described with one word: useless. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

RE: [Flashcoders] Exporting a movie file
Nope - that's not going to work. The Flash player renders dynamic text, not the Quicktime player. Quicktime does not support Actionscript.

Re: [Flashcoders] Exporting a movie file
I recommend Macromedia Generator!* -jonathan *joking. I spent a lot of time messing around with Generator as a way to streamline image production about 10 years ago. I'm glad it can be a punchline now. On Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 2:59 PM, Barry Hannah ba...@shift.co.nz wrote: This is much more complicated than you might imagine. To export video from dynamic elements (such as your textfield) Flash has to export the entire movie as a bitmap sequence frame by frame. Then you stitch those bitmaps (pngs or whatever) together server side using something like FFMPEG. There is no easy way to accomplish any of this. Have a look at Animoto.com, it's doing something similar, though more complex. They take users images/text/music and stitch it all up. Hopefully one day they release an export to video API! Also, they've open sourced a filmstrip project which is more geared to applying motion blur to actionscript based animations and exporting them as video, but there might be something you can use: http://labs.animoto.com/2009/06/07/presenting-filmstrip/ Barry. -Original Message- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Lehr, Ross (N-SGIS) Sent: Tuesday, 19 January 2010 8:04 a.m. To: Flash Coders List Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Exporting a movie file Here's the scenario.
