hey guys, im a cel animator who would very much like to showcase my cel animation on my flash site. im attempting to do it at [www.creativejuggernauts.com](http://www.creativejuggernauts.com) on the animation page. as you can see, it takes a while to load, and the quality is not the best, and im forced to us the fps rate that my flash movie is playing at. what id like to know, is whats the best way to display a quicktime in a flash site like mine? id like maximum quality even if it will take a while to download. any ideas? ---

You could always convert your QT to FLV and play it without any pop-ups 😉 ---

I guess the only reson not to use quicktime in a pop up is a copyright issue. if it’s flash and loaded within another flash file it is MORE DIFFICULT to download. It was a few years ago when I was researching this so it may have changed, but if it’s any issue it is definitely something to consider. ---

Hi Daniel, yeah i tried adjusting the alpha of my window an it works, so thanks a lot. Just a comment about your problem with the quicktime pop up. I think if u use the quicktime pop up, it’ll take longer for ur visitants to load ur movies, and visually it looks better the way it is right now. Anyway it’s just a comment. good luck! ---

Those animations are great. You got skills no doubt 😉 Those clips could compress pretty good , I guess you used wronf compression parameters. Try to go with video datarate: 1104 kbps audio datarate: 96 kbps keyframe: 60 1 Pass Baseline 1:1 fps If you’re using AfterEffects or premiere, use Macromedia Flash Video Exporter instead. Somehow I managed to get better results with that method (same parameters) ---
