Question

Need help with slideshow

Okay...here goes.

I received a Powerpoint Presentation and was asked to convert it to flash. When I exported the ppt to quicktime it was missing some of the assets, so I decided to just recreate the presentation in Flash CS3 Pro. I made it through - importing the slides, creating buttons and setting actions for those buttons. Now I'm stuck. I have 5 slides that, when in Powerpoint, played QT movies when the slide was selected. How do I recreate that in Flash?

Thanks,
Sean

Actionscript 2.0. I was doing this tutorial online and selected new - actionscript 2.0.

so, you have a 1 frame fla? if so, then you can add an flvplayback component to your library and use the following. you'll need to do a bit more to add a player skin. check the flash helpfiles.

convert the qt movies to flv video and use an flvplayback component or video instance to play the video.

So I imported the movies. I want each movie to play when the selected slide is chosen - how do I do that? I already converted them from QT to FLV. If anyone can give me a step by step on how to accomplish this I will be be truly grateful!

Thanks,
