I have a flash project I'm going to be working on, which will be displayed full screen on a lcd that is 1360x768. I also might want to display it using a standard definition tv with the 4:3 aspect ratio (720x480 i believe...), and will want to use the movie in a website as well.
First and foremost i want it to look good on the widescreen lcd, so I will design it to look good on that at 1360x768. I will keep the content within a centered section at 1024x768px so if shown at the 4:3 ratio, the content won't be cropped.
I guess I need to know my options for scaling and cropping a movie when I need to show it at other stage sizes. Is there an easy way to do it besides practically recreating the movie...scaling elements, changing the position of elements in actionscript, etc.?
I hope this made some sense, and thanks for any info!
