hi all

i’m sure people have asked this before, but I couldn’t find a post…

I am working on a new animation and have discovered the joys of the blur effect…when i export as a quicktime it’s perfect…but when i export as an swf it plays like 100 times slower!!!

it’s so easy to test your movie as an swf as you go along working… my current project is 7 minutes long & i dread having to export a quicktime mov 1,000 times before i finnish, to make sure it’s in synce with the soundtrack…

any suggestions welcome!

thanx
