What is the best way to get a flash cs5 file (.fla) into Sony Vegas timeline, in order to join it with others Vegas stuff?
I'm using win xp sp3 and Vegas Pro 10.
As far as I know, a .fla
file is analogous as that of a .doc
file. Let's put it like this:
Your
fla
is like the recipe of a cake, and everytime you compile it into answf
movie, the program actually reads the recipe and bakes a new cake.
So rather than trying to insert your recipe (fla
) you may want to compile the move (swf
) or even an flv
movie and try to insert that into your Vegas timeline. Though you may need the right codecs or plugins to do so.
A quick google search for "import swf in sony vegas" threw me this.
And this is a good codec pack that contains the flv
codec.
Update:
This video shows how to import an actual swf
movie to Vegas Pro 10 by following these steps:
Export configurations
dialog (Ctrl+Shift+F12).Flash
tab.Player
option to FlashPlayer 5
or FlashPlayer 6
.Compress movie
option.swf
movie again and it should work.fla
though), that's why I suggested the flv
solution too.
swf
on Vegas Pro 10 by exporting the fla
as a FlashPlayer 6 swf
movie and by disabling movie compression. Please do some research before asking.
