Flash 5 can't export .mov files as .swf's, but MX can. Wildform Flix is another option.

I think that Flash MX would probably be able to do this, so you might want to check that out.

I'm using version 5.

One problem is that I do not know the # of frames in the QT mov.
The second problem is that I do not want to export it as a QT mov but as a swf.

Seems that I (we, me and my collegues) have to find another solution...

Thanx anyway, Megan.

Have you addeed keyframes to your timeline to make up the length of the video? In v. 5, this is what the help file says to do:

Quote: To preview a QuickTime movie:
1. Add the number of frames to the Timeline that correspond to the length of the QuickTime movie you want to play.
2. Choose Control > Play.

Note: You cannot preview QuickTime movie content using the Control > Test Movie command.

It also says that you have to export your movie as quicktime for it to work.

Which version of flash are you using? I know that MX has better support for video than v. 5 does but that's as much help as I can give you. Hopefully someone with more flash knowledge will stop by and take a look at this soon...
