[branched to a new thread]
There's seldom any reason or benefit to exporting a SWF file directly from After Effects. Relatively few things are preserved as vectors (which is the main reason to export a SWF file). See this page for details.
There are several options for creating movies from After Effects that will play in Flash Player. See this section for more information.

Wade_Zimmerman Dec 30, 2010 10:12 AM (in response to TracidTrax)If it renders fine a FLV why do take that into Flash and export from Flash it would give you the opportunity to add your interactivity if there is to be any.
Although I agree if it works fine as an FLV are you not better off that way?

TracidTrax Dec 30, 2010 9:25 PM (in response to TracidTrax)Thanks Todd for creating a new thread, didnt really want to spam the forums with so many SWF threads about.
Well im basically making a banner for a website with some minor animations that would automatically play only once when the user enters the website.
Some of the projects specs are that i created a custom composition (900pxx270px) and imported a slightly photoshopped JPEG image. I then added a ripple effect to the single layer being the JPEG image, i then hit export to SWF and kept the image quality to maximum and I didnt rasterize
Any suggestions on what im doing wrong and y I cant get the SWF to play back at all?

Don't export raster images to SWF. There's no point. Stick with F4V and FLV. If you're starting with a JPEG, which is a bitmap/raster image, then you have no chance of getting your animation out in the SWF vector format.
