According to me it’s a much better version then the previous one.

We are having the exact same problem. The only way to get true 24 fps is to export a PNG sequence and open that sequence in QT and export the codec of your choice. Unfortunately, there’s no ability to export the audio simultaneously and you must sync audio to picture in QT or Final Cut. But at least you have 24 frames instead of 23.81 (in my case). If anyone can shed some light on this one, please let me know. Another way to do 24 fps is to export an SWF and then open it in QT and then export to a QT movie of your choice. Again, the audio cannot be output from the SWF QT export (grayed out) but you get a 24fps picture.
Any thoughts?

I have the same issue regarding frame rate mismatch with exported quicktime movies.
Document Properties: Frame rate is 24fps, Size is 1280x720
When exported to quicktime at 24fps, the rendered mov file is 24.39.
This occurs consistently with all codecs.
Haven't found a solution.

I’ve been using flash cs3 and love the new pen tool and other cool little features, but I’m having a major issue with exporting a quicktime 1920×1080. It doubles every frame (when exported and viewing the info for the movie file in Quicktime Pro, it reads 16.8 fps when I actually specified 30 fps for the export) when I export at this size, with or without any type of codec. If you have cs3 please try and export at this size and let me know if you have the same problem, and if not how the heck did you do it?? Thanks!

does anyone know if the old pencil tool and brush tools be maintained? I’ve been using flash for so long that I actually like these tools and can draw really easily with them.I looked at the Adobe demo several times and I saw that the old pencil tool was still there, But I can’t confirm if the brush tool was. Anyone know the lo-down this? I actually really dislike the illustrator drawing tools, so to me this isn’t exactly an improvement.

hopefully the pen tool will not suck anymore, i hate the implementation in current versions, it should work like photoshop and illustrator

yeh,in PC flash 8 and MX, you just need to go into publish settings and change the flash player to ver. 5 to publish an swf imbedded quicktime.( it took me 3 years to realize this)

I didn’t get a chance to peek at any new jsfl stuff yet, I sent some requests a while back but I don’t know if any got implemented. I only got a chance to play with a copy of it for a few minutes at the launch party and there was no mouse on the computer…I hate trackpads with a fiery passion!

Filters are really just clips of code that get added to your movie clip when you export, and since you can’t have code attatched to graphic symbols, no filters for them. But now that you can render Movie Clips to video it doesn’t matter as much.

does anybody knows whether the new suite will allow me to use filters on graphic symbols as well as on Movie clips?

Excellent, that’s good news for PC users, too bad it took so long to make that happen, now let’s hope the brush tools for Wacom improve for us Mac users.
