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.

Hey,
I’ve heard of a few techniques of doing this,
[list=1]
[_]Go to [flashkit dot com](http://www.flashkit.com) and look in the 3d tutorials section, I saw some good stuff about 3d s maxbut am too lazy too look there.
[_]Use the program entitled/called [Sorenson’s Squeeze](http://animation.about.com/library/weekly/aafpr012403squeeze.htm) .It may sound like a wrestling move but can convert video to the flash video format .flv.
This technique only works for Flash [SIZE=100]MX[/SIZE] though.
[\*]I have no idea…
