Embed a video in FrameMaker 10 and make it work in pdf

I am trying to embed a video in a FrameMaker 10 document. I want to export it as a pdf and have the video work in the pdf.

I have tried two video formats now - flash and mpeg and several pdf export options, but I can not make it work. I merely get a pdf file with a box showing the video film strip symbol. When clicking I sometimes can make the sound work and sometimes I get at black box, but never any video display. Can anyone help?

regards

Bjørn

There are lots of improvements to placed video in FM11...I recommend reading the reviewers guide at adobe.com/products/framemaker for more info on a slew of multimedia upgrades, including mp4 support.

Not really a FM Integration question.

Anyway - you might want to check out a product called Timesavers - it specializes in the multi-media within PDFs.
