1. Re: Using .FLV assets instead of AVI or QT in Director projects
Newsgroup_User Aug 10, 2006 10:16 AM (in response to OrlandoJetset)The first thing that you need to consider is whether or not this project
will work well on the web. If you have to make a bunch of compromises to
get it working on the web, then it may not represent you well.
That said, you can use FLVs in Director MX 2004 with the latest updates.
However, you can't stream the FLVs, you have to encapsulate each one in
an SWF and then use the SWF. So if its the streaming that you're after,
you may want to use QT instead. You can stream that.
Regardless of the video media that you use, you need to be sure that you
aren't taking a smooth CD based experience and turning it into a click
and wait, click and wait, less than elegant web experience. If you want
to showcase your video capabilities then you may want to build a web
specific tool. Or, you may want to let site visitors request a CD to be
mailed to them.
