RE: [flasher] Re: Importing a PNG Sequence in Flash 5?

You should realize that to actually play back .swf files

at a reasonable speed, they are decompressed into memory - so

it is not the file size you need to worry about, but the equivalent

size of an uncompressed bitmap. This can become very large.


That said, Wildform has a pretty cool little tool called

"Flix" that takes an mpeg and converts it into a swf file

made up of jpegs.
