to Import video in MX Director at the actual FP rate. It seems that
I keep importing video that imports a the single ''1 FP'' rate.
I am creating an interactive video that I need to stop at
various frames so I am curious to which format is best for both
quality and FP capabilities.
I have tired .Mov, .Swf, .Avi and .Flv.
Maybe I am compressing with the wrong codec for Director to
recognize the FP....

Hello,
By FP, are you refering to the frame rate? Like, FPS= Frames
per Second? If that is the case, then an .flv and .swf won't work.
Quicktime (.mov) and Windows Video (.avi) should both work. If
you're on a Mac, you'll probably have to use the Quicktime. What
program are you creating the video with, and can you view it
properly outside of director?Video Formats
I am just basically looking for a format when loaded in
director allows me to scrub through it frame by frame. So upon
importing it I can view the amount of frames that the video has via
property inspector and Frames: ___ at the bottom of the
properties
I鈥檓 not a video expert but I can give you a heads up on
some trouble we had with a similar project. I needed to create
chapter marks that when clicked would jump the video to a specific
time. Unlike your case I had about a 陆 second landing zone
(about 15 frames). We found it was VERY difficult (more like
impossible) to get Director to jump to a video location with this
degree of accuracy when played on a variety of machines, at least
when using WMV or MPG1. The problem turned out to be the spacing
between the video keyframes, some machines could interpolate
(tween) an intermediate frame on the fly, others had to scan back
to the last keyframe. The client hated watching the video scan back
so our ultimate solution ended up being increasing the size of the
landing zone to 1 second (30 frames) and decreasing the span
between keyframes to 陆 second, thereby guaranteeing a keyframe
in our landing zone. Good luck but my suspicion is that you will
not be able to get Director to display video with single frame
accuracy when using a compressed video format 鈥?It might work
with an uncompressed AVI where every single frame is fully rendered
but be prepared for HUGE files.
