Hi,

I have some animated gifs put into a movie en placed
the movie on the internet.
In the xtras folder i placed the animated gif asset and
the animated gif options xtra.

but when the movie starts there is an error that says
"This application requires an Xtra (Animated GIF ....) that either does not
exist of failed to initialize properly. Please make sure the appropriate
Xtras are in the Xtras folder(s)

What can i have missed???


Who has an suggestion

You have to tell the movie to force the end-user to download the
required xtra, and in the case of the xtra you cite it can't be
downloaded from your site. Besides, you only uploaded the Windows
version - what about Mac Shockwave users?

Open your original file, go to Modify|Movie|Xtras..., hilight the
Animated GIF Asset (or incude it if it's not already listed by hitting
the Add button), check the 'Download if Needed' box, re-publish and
upload it again.
Forget about the options xtra - it's for authoring only, not required at
run-time and therefore not downloadable.
