View Full Version : Simple question about image resolution for projector file

Hi,

I have a simple question. I understand how Flash handles image resolution inside an SWF. But ...

Say I'm preparing a projector file, which will be viewed on a big plasma wide-screen.

What will happen to the embedded images when the screen automatically resizes to fit the plasma screen? Will the images loose resolution?

Would I have to embed images with high dpi to improve the image resolution once maximized? What would be the right way to handle images to ensure a good resolution outcome?

Please leave comments if you know the answer, I don't like guessers. :confused:

Thanks, :cool:

Your best bet is to compile the swf at the target resolution. Although flash *should* simply scale up your bitmaps (thereby meaning that you technically just need to have hi-res bitmaps) some errors can occur in caching and with layers, causing occasional redraw artifacts.

Hope that helps.
