Hi, I want to ask you about how can I import video into my Flash Project and make it possible to view ?

I tried to choose embed FLV but the sound quality is quite shity and the video quality too. Furthermore, It expands the timeline which is too long because my video is quite long too. It said that it can be at least 16000 Frames to run.

Now I choose Import -> Import Video -> Load External ..... and then I put it on one scene. The thing is that when I test it, it looks like I have to expands the timeline too so that I can play the videos fully. And It will slow down the computer so much when I want to export. Is there any way I can play the video only by just creating one keyframe ?

Please help me.

Correct answer kglad

so the button i can just leave there in scene 1 and i put the action _root.gotoAndStop("screen2_frame1"); into the button action right?

and can you tell me how can I make it go back to scene 1 to choose again after the movie finished ?


one problem at one time.  it's too easy for you to get confused otherwise.

do you have your button working to play the video?  if not, do both:

label the first frame in scene 2 (eg, "sceen2_frame1") and in your button handler use:

_root.gotoAndStop("screen2_frame1");

Don't import the video, use an FLVPlayback component from the component library and have the video loaded/played dynamically.

Open the components library and drag an FLVPlayback component onto the stage.  With the component on the stage selected, enter the path/filename of the flv file in the contentPath field in the Parameters section of the Properties panel.
