Currently only the Flash (SWF) movie file format is supported, with additional restictions: • Movie must be in version 7 or less. Version 8 is only partially supported. • ActionScript version 3 isn’t currently supported. • SWF movie cannot have embedded video. • SWF cannot have any exported symbols (symbols that are used via the attachMovie function). • SWF dimensions must be the same or smaller than the Viewlet. • SWF should be a simple frame to frame animation, rather than a complex SWF controlled via AcitonScript • Recommended frame rate is 18 frames per second. Viewlets play at 18 fps and will play animated extras at this rate. So if your animated extra has a higher frame rate, it will appear to be playing slow and vice versa. • The duration of the animated extras are calculated by multiplying its frame count by 18 fps. It will be displayed for this calculated duration time. • The begining movie cannot have stop() function call on the timeline.
