| MP3 Codec for SWiSH Max/miniMax (v1 to v3) audio encoding |
top of page |
|
|
|
|
SWiSHzone.com products use the built-in ACM driver available in Windows 2000/XP to encode MP3. However this codec only supports audio < 44.1kHz. If you require 44.1kHz audio files you will need to use a different MP3 encoder. Windows Vista and Windows 7 do not ship with a built-in MP3 encoder so an MP3 encoder is necessary to export sound.

WINDOWS VISTA / WINDOWS 7 USERS - DOWNLOAD MP3 CODEC
|
|
|
|
Windows Vista and Windows 7 do not include a built-in MP3 encoder. An MP3 encoder is necessary to export sounds in your Flash animations. We recommend all Vista and Windows 7 users download and install the LAME ACM MP3 Codec as described below.

One freeware option is the LAME ACM encoder developed by the The Lame Project. To use this encoder you need to agree to the Licensing terms included in the installer.
LAME ACM MP3 Codec
Instructions
1. Download and extract the ZIP to a folder.
2. Right-click on 'LameACM.inf' and choose "Install" in the pop up menu. Depending on your file view the extension ".inf" may not be displayed but the file type is "Setup Information".
3. Allow the installation to proceed. In WinXP you may need to select 'Continue Anyway' when Windows reports the installer has not passed the Windows Logo testing.
4. Restart your PC.
Note: To uninstall LameACM use the Control Panel | Add or Remove Programs entry.

SWiSH Video3 (and Video2) will export using Flash 8 video (SWF8) if an appropriate VFW codec is installed. You can find the codec via a google search using e.g. "VP6 VFW Codec 6.4.2". Codec v6.4.2 is the lastest version (and so preferred). Use a CODEC, not a DECODER. There are many decoders labelled as codecs which will not work.
Example codec pack:
http://www.cole2k.net/?display=Codec-Pack-Advanced
This pack includes "On2 Technologies VP6 Video Codec 6.4.2". It is possible to selectively install only this codec in the installation process. Choose 'Expert Installation' and unselect options or check 'Select None' so that only "On2 VP6" is checked.
Note: We are not responsible for the use or the installation of 3rd party codecs. The use of any codec is subject to license conditions supplied with the codec. You must observe these terms of use at all times.
