Right now importing an FLV and embedding it in the timeline of a movieclip is a pretty slow process as it involves going through the wizard. Is there an efficient way to do a mass import of FLVs and have each of the FLV be embedded in individual movieclip?
(NOTE: I understand the implication of embedded FLV and other options but let's assume embedded FLV is the only option here)
Ok, given that you want to import them. Something like this is possible using JSFL.
JSFL a javascript extension system that works in the flash authoring environment. There are methods for adding items to both the timeline and into the library.
Here are the docs, look at the library.addnewitem and document.additem methods.
This should do the trick
Unfortunately I have found no way to automate that FLV import wizard (wtf Adobe??).
Since there is no AppleScript support in Flash (it has JSFL after all) the furthest I got was with Apple's UI Scripting but this I abandoned because it was impossible to account for the various times different videos would take to import.
