Hello

I'm developing a multimedia CD ROM for Windows (mac also, maybe) and it
needs to contain video.

I own Flash 8, and I can create .flv video files. Can I import .flv into
Director MX 2004? Also, after they are imported, can I control them (pause,
rewind, stuff like that)?

Any examples or tutorials out there?

Thanks,

---------------Steve

IF the promised Flash xtra update to support Flash 8 materializes, you
may be able to import a flash file containing the video. In te mean time
you will have to use another video format that is supported by director.

No, you could use Flash video, you'll just have to use the Sparc codec
and not On2 and publish to Flash 7 (and test it in Director...)

Dude,

I was able to get a .swf into Director saved as version 6. It contains a
..flv movie, and nothing else.

Is it hard to get buttons in the Director presentation that can control the
Flash video? I thought about placing the control buttons in the Flash movie
(using the built-in controls that you can enable from within Flash), but my
controls have to appear in the lower left of the 1024x768 of the Director
screen, and the video is in the upper-right, so they cannot be part of the same
..swf file.

How would I go about controlling the .swf video playback from within
Director?

Thanks again,
