Hey guys, I’m trying import an .AVI file into a Flash doc for a class project. I went through the steps to import the movie, but it plays back at a very fast framerate. Also, the sound doesn’t play with the movie correctly. I guess what I’m trying to say is, is there a correct way to import a .AVI file so that it will run smoothly? I’ve searched the forum and found no clear answer to my problem. If you can help, thanks in advance.

Also, I have to turn this in as a Flash presentation. So I figure just to submit the .SWF file. But when I turned that in, most of my classmates couldn’t see it unless the HTML file was also attached. What’s the best way to submit this where I only have to send one file. Once again, thanks.
