QuickTime

The QuickTime export option creates a movie with a Flash track in the QuickTime 4 format. This export format lets you combine the interactive features of Flash MX with the multimedia and video features of QuickTime in a single QuickTime 4 movie, which can be viewed by anyone with the QuickTime 4 plug-in.

If you have imported a video clip (in any format) into a movie as an embedded file, you can publish the movie as a QuickTime movie. If you have imported a video clip in QuickTime format into a movie as a linked file, you can also publish the movie as a QuickTime movie. For information on importing video clips, see Importing video.

When you export a Flash movie as a QuickTime movie, all layers in the Flash project are exported as a single Flash track, unless the Flash movie contains an imported QuickTime movie. The imported QuickTime movie remains in QuickTime format in the exported movie.

These export options are identical to QuickTime publish options. See Choosing publish settings for QuickTime 4 movies.
