I am asking that everyone sumbit a request to Sony at:

http://mediasoftware.sonypictures.com/support/productsuggestion.asp

asking them to put back the SWF output option that was in Movie Studio 3. They took it out and in turn gave us an "upgrade" that took away useful features.

Please, everyone contact them and request they add it back in the next update. We deserve to get an upgrade without them taking away things.

The functionality of MS didn't change that much from 3 to 4, and both can coexist on the same computer, so why not just keep using 3 for SWF? Personally, I tried it once, and like many flash creations, I wanted it to loop, which is standard with macromedia. The Wildform flash files created with MS forced the looping to "off", which I was told, was a specific request of Sony.

Keeping the old version would work, but that is not productive use of space... the point is that they took away a solid feature, and no where in the upgrade notes does it say "no longer includes swf output".

Its just like buying a car... "oh, the 2003 model had a gas cap...we took that away in the 2004 model, buy didnt think it was important to say anything about it... if you want, keep driving your 2003 model and let the 2004 sit in the driveway."
