Question

Generating/compiling .mp4 .swf from .as file or IDE program.

Not sure if this is really a flash question per say, however, I have checked out this website www.goanimate.com and was quite curious as to how it works, in terms of rendering and processing user data from a flash based GUI.

Essentially, in this GUI you can place characters,  and text to speech into different backgrounds  etc. which I think I have a basic understanding of how this might work, however, the real puzzle for me is how is this data processed and rendered as a .mp4 extension, and could this in theory be compiled into a .swf? I am missing this bridge through where flash commuicates this through some backend piece, renders and spits out the product.

Has anyone ever heard about doing something like this, or better yet lead me into the right direction to research and find out more about this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

File >> Export >> Export Movie >> QuickTime movie >> Export Settings >> Quick Time Settings >> Video >> Settings >> Compression Type >> H.264

Extensions is immaterial - you can manually change it. The main thing is codes/compression.

Thank you for your reply Andrei1, but I don't think I'm explaining myself clearly. I'm looking for a way to publish a .mp4 or a .swf, outside of Flash completely.

What I'm trying to figure out is a way for a .swf GUI interface, which might be something along the lines having a movie or game creator where you can place items,objects,characters behaviors in a stage and export what you created to a .mp4 or .swf. from that .swf GUI interface.

My problem is the bridge to compile from the .swf GUI interface TO the end product(.mp4,.swf filetype). I am looking into the HAXE compiler to do this, but wanted to see if anyone here could perhaps elaborate or expand on a direction to take here.  Thanks
