screensavers

Can flash mx be used to make screensavers?

[Viper32817]

Quite simply put....YES. But you need flash along with another program that will turn your projector executable to a .scr.

*********** Entertainor is what youi want.

Does tat mean i do the screensaver in the flash n convert them using the software to .srj files?

[EQFlash]

I don't use that program, but I think it means that you create the flash movie, save it as a swf file, and then open the file in flashjestor, and it will convert it to a screensaver.

Actually you just make your movie into a projector...then use *********** Entertainor to convert the .exe to a .scr.

Thanx for correcting me Viper. I knew it was one of those formats.

Hello,

You could use .SWF format alternatively. You could use any version of Flash for that matter. You can probably use a tool like Screenswift (our product) or go for Screentime or other products available in the market.

Very few support Flash MX. Most say they do, but I have had problems with all of them accept Screentime.

But I think the real way to go, if possible, is to make your own in C++ or like.

Okay.... what if I don't want to pay any money? I dont want to fork over hundreds of dollars for a little program that simply converts my Flash animations into something else....

[icedovy]

Does tat mean that any of the version of flash will do?

[shalin]

You could use ScreenSwift, we have made available a freeware version for non-commercial use.

MX support will be made available shortly.

Could make your own screensaver in C++, like I do.
