  29. hops35 says:

    [..YouTube..] im running into a problem….when i export it as a .mov i get through all settings i want and set it as an animation, my clip is no bigger then yours and for some reason wont export properly. before the movie compresses it stops at recording flash content and doesnt move on from there? what should i do about this?

  30. ipwnyamum says:

    [..YouTube..] I found an easier way, you may of included it in ur vid sorry if u did but i didnt watch it all. when u click export and it says where to save it to, at the bottom it says save file as: click the one you want and it’ll do it, it worked for me

  31. 8506410 says:

  32. bizzy17 says:

    [..YouTube..] Thanks alot … your tutorials are a bit long, but that’s fine because they’re excellent and easy to follow.

  33. GrandDewalt says:

    [..YouTube..] I have a new problem, everytime I make an animation it comes out wrong, when I watch the movie clip in other programs or even on a youtube test, the animation is much slower and the whole animation does not play. Help please

  34. delpiero8401 says:

    [..YouTube..] merci man thanks

  35. CocahColah says:

    [..YouTube..] @jbkrule I think it’s his chin :O

  36. [..YouTube..] your tutorials are amazing and your the best … i like how you go into depth in all of your tutorials but it would be a little better if it was brief

  37. 13cheesus14 says:

    [..YouTube..] you dont make any sense ahhhh

  38. [..YouTube..] Yes, this is a good tutorial indeed, but here’s the problem; Each time I export the flash movie and view it, the sprites don’t play their set actions. Their just lifeless pictures moving across the screen doing nothing

  39. NordenRED says:

    [..YouTube..] i try to export my movie to avi but when i do that all animation(movie clips) in the file dont play so what should i do?? please help

  40. whatdiditube says:

    [..YouTube..] again, I LOVE YOU!you have the most awesome simple and most helpful tutorials IN THE WORLD!your amazing! :D words can’t describe how emmense you are!

  41. jbkrule says:

    [..YouTube..] Does this guy you made have a tumor in his cheek or something :o

  42. GrandDewalt says:

    [..YouTube..] This didn’t help me as much as I had hoped it would. I made an animation that really it doesn’t go on that long, but the song playing goes to 1 minute and 51 sec, because I didnt finish all the animations, I wanted to upload it here to test, but when I exported the file became 4GB and the animations only go on for 20 secs, I really didn’t think that these animations were really all that complicated just motion and shape tweens, some of which repeat, I’m using a windows xp and I tried AVI format

  43. Zepherus14 says:

    [..YouTube..] He’s using symbols, so no key frames necessary

  44. AsFunnyAsTV says:
