Title: Bundled FLC files play too slowly...
Post by: x_traveler_x on Wed 02/08/2006 05:57:57
Just an annoying little hurdle here...

My game is in 800x600 resolution and I have a couple of short FLC files (8 and 9 seconds) bundled into my EXE file that play when the game is started.

Unfortunately, they play too slowly.  Sometimes the 8-second FLC takes up to 20 seconds to play, which really stinks when it's supposed to be timed to a MIDI file 8 seconds in length.  Is there any way to get the play time back down to the actual length short of drastically reducing color depth and/or resolution?

Thanks.

What colour depth is your game at?

Use AVI instead?

The color depth is 16-bit high color.

I tried using MPG and AVI files first, which worked very nicely.  The problem with those formats, though, is that they don't bundle into the compiled EXE.  I also don't want to trifle with AVI codecs.

Also, AVI doesn't work for all ports, it won't play on the Linux port at least I think.
