Exporting to flv file is too big
Posted by Dotan Baytman on November 21, 2006 at 10:01 ami have a simple animation with motion blur on it
when i export to swf the file is 30kb and no motion blur
when i export to flv the file is 60kb and with motion blur
how can i keep the motion blur and make the file smaller?

November 21, 2006 at 10:10 amsounds like your swf export is vector based, and all effects and motionblur that needs to be rasterized are disabled (this is an option in the swf export dialog).
flv is pixelbased by default. no option here. you cant compare both file sizes, cause the technique behind is totally different.
by the way…60k are pretty small. how long is you animation?

so 60kb is big for that
any other way i can compress it? -

November 21, 2006 at 12:26 pmthe only way is to lessen the bitrate of the flv.
if you can delive .swf also, try to get rid of everything that needs to be rastered (moblur) and export as swf. this will be the smallest file possible if you use vector graphics like illustrator files.
by the way: do you mean kb (kilobit) or kB (kiloByte).

i mean kilobytes
also without the motion blur its 30kb

maybe you can upload your banner.
after seeing it i will tell you what size will be appropriate for it.payton
