Hi Chris,
This is a bit OT, but somewhat related to the opening post. I use Video2SWF and I’m curious about your statement, ” but it works quite well when you get the settings right.” Do you have some tips regarding settings? I’m OK with my current SWF files, but they could be better. Do you just jack the bit rate up, or are you doing something else? Currently I drop QT reference movies in from FCP as a source and compress SWFs from those.

Thanks,

Dan Sparks

Hey Dan,

Well, I do jack up the data rate, and put quality on 100, but one of the other quirks I run into is frame size, I find it helps to make your input movie exactly the size you want your SWF, as otherwise it screws it up about half the time. Other than that, it’s kinda slow, but pretty painless. Helluva an app for the $$.

Have a wonderful day.

Thanks for the tips, Chris. I didn’t now about the frame size issue. I agree, great deal for the price! The new version has new players that allow for full screen playback option.

Thanks,

I disagree. You sign up for these posts to get help and advice from peers, not to be knocked down and dragged about when the respondent doesn’t know the circumstances behind the scenes. If one can not be helpful without offering unsolicited criticism, they’d be best not to try to help at all.

Like it or not, I was simply stating a fact of life here and on many forums. IMO, the “critisism” is 99.9% of the time not meant to hurt, but is often well deserved, and downright entertaining. So chill and enjoy.

Have a wonderful day.

[Steve Cohen] “it seems that when installed on an Octocore Leopard system, it does not work with Cleaner 6 and I can’t get any help from On2 to resolve this issue.”

what about through compressor?

I use on2 flix pro (standalone encoder+batch capability)

Your right about the support though, they didn’t respond
to my question of why some of the features don’t work at all.
