all you had to do, instead of wasting all this days, was to
google archives
for "center flash" and you would find the answer in minutes.
Sometimes we don't answer not because we don't know, we don't
answer because the
question is a pure waste of time and obviously shows you did
not bother to do
any search and put any effort to find it yourself, just look
for someone to fix
you up instead.
That is why question like that get no attention.

Resolution for Widescreen Monitor question

We have a project that requires a flash presentation that
will run on a widescreen monitor (1366 x 768) at a tradeshow booth.
Any advice on what resolution to use for our images? We had
thought 150dpi would give us smooth color gradations. True?
If we use that, should we made our document size larger or
scale down the graphics when importing them to the stage?
Any help/advice is appreciated.
-K

First of all, dpi is meaningless for screen graphics (ie, the
web). What you are really looking at is pixels, so pixel dimensions
is all that really matters.
In the end, if the the monitor is 1366x768 then your best bet
is to just make the Flash that size. Flash can run slowly when
played at larger resolutions, regardless of whether the original
size was large or the movie is being scaled up. If you can, get the
latest Flash Player 9 update beta from labs.adobe.com, it is
significantly better in performance, especially at large scale
sizes.
I've made a number of Flash demos to be played on monitors at
tradeshows and such, and I would suggest your best bet would be to
make yout images the actual size they will be displayed, and scale
as little as possible in Flash (excusing any scaling animation, of
course). The way I do this is make mockups of all my main keyframe
sequences in Photoshop (or Fireworks, which is what I use, which
has frames and pages so motion storyboards are actually really easy
to do, but you could also just make a sequence of PSDs) at the
final size, 1366x768, and then when you are ready export you know
the images are the size they should be.
One last thing to mention, if you intend to animate your
images in Flash in any way, make sure you set their properties in
the Libray so that "allow smoothing" is on -- it will make the
animations of bitmaps much smoother.

CS6 Firewire 16:9 preview is letterboxed on widescreen monitor

With CS6, is there a setting to fix the Firewire Preview since the 16:9 video is incorrectly letterboxed on a widescreen video monitor? It is basically letterboxing something that doesn't need to be letterboxed.This is for a 1080 24p AVCHD project with 1080 24p video files.
Adobe Encore & After Effects CS6 properly dsiplay the Firewire Preview on a widescreen monitor.
In Encore, there is acctually a setting in the Preview Menu that lets you change the TV Mode from 16:9 to 4:3 Letterbox. That only affects the preview when choosing to the Preview the DVD. When playing the video from the Timeline or clicking on a DVD Menu that setting doesn't change how the Firewire Preview displays and is always 16:9. Premiere is always 16:9 letterboxed.
Any suggestions on how to get Premiere to display 18:9 using Firewire Preview without letterboxing it?
Randy

I checked it using various Firewire devices but they all act the same in this situation. Pioneer DVD recorder, Sony DV camcorders.
The unique thing with Premiere CS6 compared to CS5.5 or earlier versions is that it allows Firewire previews with the Mercury GPU on, it doesn't force you to turn that feature off and use the Mercury Software setting instead which is lower performance if you have the proper video card.
I just checked it using Premiere CS5.5 and it does the same thing. In 1080 HD Sequences, Firewire out has the 16:9 incorrectly letterboxed, or what I call "double" letterboxed.
With both CS5.5 and CS6, the Firewire preview is correctly displayed in a DV 480i 16:9 Widescreen Sequence.
A little annoying but this is where an old Sony PVM 4:3 broacast video monitor works well in combination with a widescree 16:9 video monitor still. Simply turn off the 16:9 mode and it will dsiplay it correctly when editing an HD Sequence. When using a DV widescreen Sequence you would then click on the Sony PVM's 16:9 mode so it would letterbox correctly.
Surprised Adobe didn't fix this in Premiere CS6

My secondary monitor flashes and blacks out after the 10.7 install. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I have installed 10.7 and the secondary monitor flashes and blacks out. I downgraded back to 10.6 and the problem went away. I reinstalled 10.7 and the same problem happened again. The monitor blacks in and out especially when the pointer is placed in the dock area, but it still happens all the time. My secondary monitor is a ViewSonic 22 inch that is connected to a DVI to display adapter. Any solutions??
Thanks

Talked to AppleCare and it's most likely the fact that my MacBook has 3.0 USB ports and my non official charging cable can't support that. So yeah, I'll try a new cable, hopefully that's the fix.

Extracting resourse like .ai & png files from a flash project

Hi! I have been assined the task of extracting the images from old flash projects and am having a devil of a time doing so.
There are lots of programs that you can extract info out of the swf files, but these don't give you the original .ai Ilustrator files that may have been used to create the presentation with, or png files with transparent backgrounds.
Is there a plug-in in Flash that allows you to capture these items in the document? when I drag the item from the library (lets say a .ai file) to the stage and right click and copy it, it only gives me part of the item when I paste it back into illustrator... and when I drag the PNG resource to photoshop I get it with a background I do not want.
any help on this would be great!!!!
I have both cs3 and cs4 so a solution in either one would be great!

Well that is kinda what I've been doing, only its not quite that simple as doing it that way makes an image of what is on the entire stage. What I have to do is create a new project copy over all my library items to the new project, and pull over each one individually and do it that way.... if you have a lot of items in your library (which I do a lot of times since these contain a lot of animation sequenced into individual frames) this process can be quite tedious. Yes you can save out to .ai illustrator files this way as well.
I was hoping for something a little more... automatic or at least where I don't have to drop each item individually on a stage, reposition, ect...
But yes, the previous post is one way of doing it with some fooling around with.

M30: FX G05200 + external Widescreen Monitor: Resolution 1440x900 not available

Hi!
I`ve got the following problem:
I`d like to connect a external TFT Widescreen Monitor with a native resolution of 1440x900 to my Satellite M30 with a GeForce FX Go5200.
But: It is not possible to adjust the resolution of the Graphics Card to 1440x900 (16:10), there are just standard resolutions (4:3) available.
I tried nearly everything:
- installed Monitor Drivers ==> no effect
- updated Drivers for the Go5200 (to 4644) ==> no effect
- updated Bios (to 1.7) ==> no effect
- Tried RIVAtuner and PowerStrip ==> no clue = no effect
Now Im pretty helpless and I dont know what to do...
Maybe someone faced the same problem here and found a solution.
Thank you for your help.
Christian

My external monitor flashes random colors after waking up from sleep?

Whenever I wake up my Mac Mini, the monitor flashes thru many different colors..... red, blue, greeen..... maybe some other ones. Sometimes it does this for a few seconds and then gets to the log in screeen and sometimes it does if for 30 seconds or longer. I have a Samsung Monitor hooked up via HDMI cable. I have had this computer for close to a year and it only started doing this over the last month. Once I can log in I don't seem to have any performance issues, I'm just woried it will get worse over time..... Maybe never stop flashing.

Hi, installed any software/updates in the last month?
I wonder if it's a variation of this, of which I've seen many different symptoms...

Move the mouse or trackpad cursor over the center area of the login window so you can see the user icons. Click on the icon of the user that you would like to login as, type in the user's password, and press Return.
If the login window is configured to show only the name and password fields, type in the user's name and password into the fields, and press Return (even if you cannot see the rest of the login window).
Additional Information
This issue will not occur if the display is not sleeping when the account is logged out. Use the steps below to confirm that the account is not configured to log out automatically while the display is sleeping:
Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. Click the padlock to unlock the preference pane and enter your admin password. Click the Advanced button at the bottom, then see if the option "Log out after N minutes of inactivity" (where N is the number of minutes) is enabled.
Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and configure Display Sleep to occur after the account is logged out, by dragging the slider to a number of minutes that is greater than N was set to in the previous step.
Important: If automatic log out is not needed, disable "Log out after Nminutes of inactivity" in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. This will also prevent the issue.

Is your video driver right for your system? Which driver are you using right now?

I cannot afford an iMac, can anyone recommend a widescreen Monitor for my 15" MacBook Pro. It would be used mainly for iPhoto and Aperture.

Pair a wireless KB with the laptop and all should be well when you attach the laptop to the iMac and invoke TDM. But as Denny mentions, it does seem like the waste of a good iMac to use it in just this configuration. Why is the laptop primary?

Help! understand cs4 flash "Project"

Ok, In cs3 flash project was nice it did what i needed but
now it seems to take more time. the reason may be I'm not using it
for the reason usually used so new operations and features where
not geared to my usage. sorry for any spelling problems or
miss-usage of words.
How I use project. I use it to batch publish 10-100 files
while i go get a coffee.
so why am i writing this.
the cs4 version dose some things that i hope someone knows a
way around.
1. so i have my project file and all my flash files open(open
in project not open as a document) and now i have to check off each
10-100 files i want to publish. waist of time. i understand why its
done but anyone know a check all function?
2. in cs3 fash would hide the publishing visualy from me and
just output the file name to an output window when completed. in
cs4 it opens the file publishes and closes it then moves to the
next one. why? i don't need to see this and i feel its slowing the
process. is it?
3. ok side note cause i just dont know if its possible but is
there a way to override the publish settings for all the files to
follow one set way. example say i have 3 flies in the publish
settings file A says publish a jpeg and a swf, file B says publish
a mov and file C says publish a gif to a different location say my
desktop not the folder its in like the others. ok, now is there a
way to make them say publish as just a swf(or whatever) to say a
new empty folder named say new folder on the desktop. basically
overriding the publish settings.
ok thanks for any help and making my day shorter. if you know
of anything that might be easer please post

Embedding YouTube file in flash project

Hi guys,
Could someone please advise me how to embed a YouTube video file in particular place of my Flash project, should I do this in action panel or in final html file.
Here is exactly what I'd like to do: On this website www.aye-aye-media.com under 'Film' panel I have some movie samples, and after clicking buttons on right side I'd like to play embedded YouTube clips instead of flv.samples uploaded to my ftp. as it takes too long for customers to download them
Thank you in advance
Dom

ok, so, is it too difficult or too easy to do what I want?

Best practice for putting together scenes in a Flash project?

Hi, I'm currently working on a flash project with the following characteristics:
using a PC
2048x1080 pixels
30 fps
One audio file that plays (once) continuously across the whole project
there are actions that relate to the audio, so the timing is important
at least 10 scenes
about 7 minutes long total
current intent is for it to be played in a modern theater as a surprise
What is the best practice for working on this project and then compiling it together?
Do it all in one project file?
Split the work into different project (xfl) files for each scene and then put it together when all the scenes are finalized?
Use one project file but create different "scenes" for each respective scene? I think this is the "classic" way (?).
Make the scenes "movie clips" and then insert them into the timeline with the audio as its own layer?
Other?
I'm currently working on it by having it all in one project file. But I've noticed that there's some lag (or it gets choppy) at certain parts during playback and the SWF history shows 3.1 MB with a yellow triangle with exclamation point symbol. Thanks in advance.

you would only do that if it makes your job easier. generally speaking, it would not.
when trying to sync sound and animation i think most authors find it easiest to use graphic symbols because you can see their animation when scrubbing the main timeline. with movieclips you only see their animation when testing.
however, if you're going to use actionscript to control some of your symbols, those symbols should be movieclips.

How to export a flash project with a changing frame rate to a video

I have a Flash project that is a series of roughly 1000 images. The result of the images is a simple animation, and there is music imported on a separate layer.
There are moments in the music that I wanted to line up with certain frame changes, and there are sections of the music that I wanted to match up with a faster (double-time) frame rate.
I used this code in several places in the a code layer:
stage.frameRate = x;
The result is exactly what I want in SWF -- the animation speeds up and slows down at the exact right moments to match up with the music track, but it seems like it's just not possible to export this variable frame rate project to a video file?
According to the accepted answer on this post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4019538, it seems that:
The export function in Flash Pro doesn't transcribe *frames*, rather it plays the Flash animation and records it like a camcorder
If that's true, then I would think there is a way to record a variable frame rate project into a video -- does anybody know if this is possible?

That or Premiere would both get the job done. After Effects might be more desirable as it has a feature called Time Remapping (right-click on the video layer, Time->Enable Time Remapping). You can add keyframes to any point in a video and then drag them around to speed up or slow down the video. That'll allow for very precise tweaks.
Finally all I'd suggest is when you jump into your next project, make a quick dummy test project to see if the software you're using is easily capable of producing what you want. It'll solve the headache of completing the project only to land where you are now. Now you know Flash won't play nicely with scripts and Export Movie. If your desired end result was always a video I'd probably use video editing software to make the video. There's some free stuff out there if you really look, but no, it won't be as nice as After Effects or Premiere by any stretch. Although when you see how amazing After Effects is, you'll probably want to buy it .
