Low favors playback speed over appearance and does not use anti-aliasing.
Auto Low emphasizes speed at first but improves appearance whenever possible. Playback
begins with anti-aliasing turned off. If Flash Player detects that the processor can handle it,
anti-aliasing is turned on.
Auto High
emphasizes playback speed and appearance equally at first but sacrifices appearance
for playback speed if necessary. Playback begins with anti-aliasing turned on. If the actual
frame rate drops below the specified frame rate, anti-aliasing is turned off to improve playback
speed. Use this setting to emulate the View > Antialias setting in Flash.
Medium applies some anti-aliasing but does not smooth bitmaps. It produces a better quality
than the Low setting but lower quality than the High setting.
High
(the default) favors appearance over playback speed and always uses anti-aliasing. If the
SWF file does not contain animation, bitmaps are smoothed; if the SWF file has animation,
bitmaps are not smoothed.
Best
provides the best display quality and does not consider playback speed. All output is anti-
aliased and bitmaps are always smoothed.
