I was wondering if anyone knew if its possible to import a movie media like a .mpeg into flash. I know you can convert movies into a swf file, but thats not what i need. I looking for a way to import it into flash as a .fla file, which then can be edited. The reason I ask for this is becuase iam currently building a 3d studios max portfolio and need a decent way of presenting it.

If anyone knows the answer to my question or any other ways of making a presentation not using flash, it would be very helpfull.

choose File\>Import or File\>Import to library  
then specify your .mpeg movie file  
to get it into your .fla file  
(you must use Flash MX, not any version lower)
