How to Import video files in library

To import files in the FLV or F4V format, use the Import or Import To Library commands or the Import button in the Video Properties dialog box.

To create your own video player, which dynamically loads FLV or F4V files from an external source, place your video inside a movie clip symbol. When you load FLV or F4V files dynamically, adjust the dimensions of the movie clip to match the actual dimension of the video file and scale the video by scaling the movie clip.

Note: A best practice is to place video inside a movie clip instance, which gives you the most control over the content. The video’s Timeline plays independently from the main Timeline. You do not have to extend your main Timeline by many frames to accommodate the video, which can make working with your FLA file difficult.

To import an FLV or F4V file into the library, do one of the following:

• Select File > Import > Import To Library.
• Select any existing video clip in the Library Panel, and select Properties from the Library Panel menu. Click Import. Locate the file to import, and click Open.
