Follow the same guidelines for audio
as for video production. To achieve good audio compression, you must begin with clean
audio. If you are encoding material from a CD, try to record the file using direct digital
transfer instead of through the analog input of your sound card. The sound card introduces
an unnecessary digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversion that can create noise in your
source audio. Direct digital transfer tools are available for Windows and Macintosh platforms.
If you must record from an analog source, you should use the highest quality sound card
available.
Importing video using the Video Import
wizard
The Video Import wizard provides a streamlined interface for importing video into a Flash
document. The wizard lets you select whether to import a video clip as a streamed,
progressively downloaded, embedded, or linked file. Also, depending on the location of your
file, the Video Import wizard provides a series of options for different deployments.
If the video clip you wish to import is located on your local computer, you can browse to it
and import the video. You can also import a video stored on a remote web server or Flash
Communication Server by providing the URL of the file.
If a video clip is located on a Flash Communication Server or web server, you can only
import it for use as a streaming or progressively downloaded file. You can not import a
remote file for use as an embedded video clip.
