Hello

Is there somewhere an explanation on how to use Flash movies with Architect 2?

When I add a media file .SWF, the flash file shows up as a button/link when I preview it, i only get a black page.

Is it possible to use Flash movies and interact with? Otherwise, what is the use of adding Flash files ?

Thanks

There is no use in adding flash files. If it could do it, DVD Arch would need to convert the flash file into an MPEG-2 video stream in order for the flash movie to be played on a DVD Player. If you happen to have macromedia Flash installed on your system, you can export the flash source file as a DV AVI, which would then be used in DVDA (or in Vegas).

Using something like DVDA 3, it would be possible to make a hybrid DVD and you could have the flash files included on the DVD along with your regular DVD video, and a computer that had a flash player installed could then play the flash files.
