Hey does anyone know here if you can import videos into older version of flash (I use CS3) with them working since for them to actually work you need flash player which is now defunct. I am trying to rotoscope something for an animation and your help would be great.

Hmm... A roundabout solution could be converting your video to a JPG or PNG sequence. Flash should read those just fine. There's plenty of software/websites that could convert your video, it's worth a shot.


One thing to note is that your video/image sequence itself should be at the frame-rate you intend to animate on. For example, a 24 fps video for a 24 fps timeline in Flash.

You will need the video to be in the FLV format.

Then it should import without any issues and you will be able to rotoscope or use as reference.


For this conversion you should be able to use either the included Adobe Video Encoder or an older version of Adobe Media Encoder such as CS6.
