Indeed it's crap as I always said. VS's mp4 is not good for animation. This is why I use only WMV when I have animation segment.

Did you record the audio in X9 or in sound program (the proper way)?

Interesting Trevor, I have here on 7 only 2018 and it doesn't.
I tried few online converters but they are crap..

MOV with alpha will be better, but QT must be installed and I will be very surprised if VS will render Alpha (VMS and Vegas can do so). Have you done so Trevor? *Robert, from my tests over the years I found that "animations" are better in wmv's over H264 mp4's which introduce subtle noise on the vid...

How do you cut?
you can hit S

I just spent 5 hours rendering over 500 swf's to wmv.
I used X9 on my W7 disk. I see that VS2018 here, also reading them well.
The cut of date of 12.1.21 was embedded in the player way back.

Have you update flash player ? "The new update also brings an actual date to Flash's actual demise in the form of January 12, 2021 — the date after which any type of Flash content won't run inside the Flash app. Skipping this last Flash update won't remove this "time bomb," however. Adobe told ZDNet...

David, you're very very optimistic.
** does VS auto replace that with a mov file of the same name?
VS is not very clever (to say the least)... while I do not have 2020 installed I'm sure that it's MOV's are totaly different in looks, than the very old swf's.

I don't see any problem of keeping the current flash player installed and disabling it in the browsers.

Short Q Landon,
Do you think that 300 in-out arbitrary zoom's will make your project interesting?

The fact that
"I didnt think i would be having these issues with the laptop i got. i have an i9 processor, 64gb of ram and an NVIDIA rtx 2070 videocard."
probably SSD also and still needs smart proxies is not good point for a software.

GIGI, for your task cue points and chapter points are the same. It was 35 years ago since I last used a Steenbeck and that was for only very short time as I went to video and not to celluloid. I thought I was clear with those arrows, Once you open the cues manger just add them manually at 10,20,30 s...

See the date?
But 2020 was not ordinary year so who knows.

Hi GiGi, the trimer is cumbersome for that task. you better split the long clip on the time line using the S key.
Just add cue points, jump to them and split. in 2 minutes your done.

One bad thing can happen, if swf files will not run.
I don't know if they use the external flash player.
Maybe it's good idea to render them now over solid color or black to mp4's
** I did few tests, rendering to mp4 is a total crap, wmv is much better.
