To import a device video by using the Library panel:
1. In Flash, open the Library panel (Window > Library).
2.
Open the Library options menu and choose New Video.
The Video Properties dialog box appears.
3.
In the Video Properties dialog box, select the option to bundle the source video in the SWF
file, then click Import.
4.
Browse to the folder that contains the device video file and select it.
If you don't see the desired video file listed in the Open dialog box (or if you can see it but
can't select it), select All Files (*.*) from the Files of Type pop-up menu (Windows), or All
Files from the Enable pop-up menu (Macintosh). This is necessary sometimes because the
Flash authoring tool doesn't recognize most device video formats.

In the Video Properties dialog box, select the Export for ActionScript option and enter a
string in the Identifier text box to play the device video clip by using a separate video

A new video symbol appears in your document's Library panel that's associated with the
device video file. You can edit the video symbol's properties in the Video Properties dialog
box. For more information, see
on page 65.
Bundled device video example
This section shows you how to create an application that plays a bundled device video file. To
do this, you'll first import a device video into your Flash document (see
video" on page 59), create an instance of the video on the Stage, and finally add ActionScript
to play and stop the video.
You can also play video directly from the library. For more information, see
bundled video directly from the library" on page
To import and play a bundled device video:
1. In Flash Professional 8, create a new document from the Flash Lite 2.0 Symbian Series 60
template, and save it as bundled_video.fla.
