sound problems when published

[dunbar10]

I just finished an animation that had a character lip synching to that dorothy line, and it works nicely when played back inside the program, but when publish it, the synch is off,

this ever happen to anyone? is there something that I'm missing here?

thanks.

Do you have the sound set to stream or event?
If its streaming it should sync okay.

I'm not sure. I'm not really all that experienced with the program.

how do I set it to streaming?

thanks for your help.

to set to stream, you need to tgo to the frame preferences on the frame which your music is on... and there you can set it to whatever you want...

i personally just export it into quicktime movies, and you get no slowdown what so ever... oh! and, you might have to set the frame rate of your flash file to the same frame rate of your sound file... ie: your .fla is @ 12 fps, but your sound is at 24 fps... that might be messing you up a bit... AND, to set the frame rate, (i don't know what it is in flash mx) but you should be able to access it through double clicking on the fps indicator beneath your timeline... it should be there... if it isnt, it's cause i use flash 4 and i dont know anything about flash mx :D! or, actually, could be something like, up at the top menu...
"modify", "scene" i think... or "movie" and in there you have the settings.

good luck!

I'll try that out!
thanks very much for the help.

At times, if you find that even after setting everything to stream, the sync is still out, you can try this. Record 1 second of silence. Insert that 1 second of silence between any parts of your animation that has no sound and set it to loop. That will force flash to sync with your movie playback at every frame.

U could also export it as an avi, download a program called virtual dub and use it to extract the audio in one huge chunk, then place the audio back into the flash and it should stay in sync.
