| This is the third movie that is doing this...The first two are about a year old, and this problem happened to both of them at about the 25 minute mark...Both of these videos were close to an hour long...
What happens is the movie plays well up until that point, and then the screen turns bright red with just tiny blocks of the movie showing up occasionally...
The movie continues to play until the end and I can still hear the voice over, even after the red shows up...
Tonight I recorded at 45 minute video, and on the very first playback the screen turned all red again at about the 25 minute mark...
The frames per second were dropped to 5 when I saved the movie because it was such a big file size...I wonder if that has something to do with it?...
I'm using BB Flashback Express Version 2.6.9 Build 1360
I make my living selling lessons about how to trade the stock market, and most of my lessons are in video format...
I guess I should try shortening up the length of my videos to less than 20 minutes, and maybe that will solve this problem...But I should be able to make an hour long movie anytime I want to...
Is anyone else having this problem too?...I updated my Adobe Shockwave just the other day, so that's not the problem here...
Any help solving this problem would be greatly appreciated...Thanks in advance...Tom

Hi. You're talking about your Flash exports, right?
The 'red screen of death' is a known problem in Flash player. When playing longer SWF movies it can hit memory problems. We'd recommend selecting FLV instead of SWF on the Video Quality tab of the Flash export settings window. If you need the interactivity in SWF movies, I think you'll need to edit them down into a number of shorter movies. | | | |

| OK...Thanks! for your quick reply...
I see that option now...
Can I ask you which of the two settings I should be using?...
Basically, all of my videos show a static stock chart that isn't moving in real-time while the market is open...And I'm explaining how to read the technical indicators on the chart...
Sometimes I show trades I'm actually doing while the market is open, and the charts are moving up and down very slowly...
I want the best "quality", and am not worried about the file size...Which of these two options would be best for the kinds of things I'm recording?...
FLV Type:
'H263' should give smaller files, particularly if your movie has moving video.
'ScreenVideo' encoding has been developed specifically for screen recordings. It will export larger FLV files than H263, but very high quality.
My guess is 'ScreenVideo'...
TIA for your input on this...

Difficult to say which would give best results without actually trying it out. So just try them, and experiment a bit. If you don't have photo type images or moving video, ScreenVideo might work well for you. | | | |
