Indeo 5 and Flash Video Importing
Dude, Indeo 5 blows when importing videos. I kept creating small import clips in the import wizard, but the video was waaaay off sync… if at all. It didn’t even import all of the clips.
I’m now attempting to learn the Media Display component at moch-10 billion since addQuePoint seems the way to go at this point with a honkin’ 9meg, 12 minute external FLV. It’s going to be weird animating movie clips, and then attaching them via an event listener vs. the old skool way to merely animating things in the timeline.
On a brighter note, the weather here rocks, and I’m reminded of it after just getting back a roll of film developed and looking through the pictures. Her majesty had photographed the ice storm and man… do I NOT miss that cold weather crud; the warm, sunny weather here at Bondi Beach rocks! It’s been a battle getting me out doors, though, as I have so much stuff to code & homework to do before the conference. Not to mention her majesty’s on reckon finding a hotel for Tuesday night… hope that goes well.
Saw Aral on the way here out in the middle of the Pacific. Hard to spot 40,000 feet up, but man, he look tired… poor bloke.

Made it to Sydney
Made it into Sydney, Australia last night at about 10:30pm. Coding this morning until I find an outlet converter, we checkout, or this laptop battery dies… whichever comes first. We check out of this airport hotel at 11am, and catch a bus to catch a bus to Bondi Beach where our hotel #2 of 5 is. I think I’ve adjusted significantly quicker to the time change compared to 2 years ago… it just took 3 days of little to no sleep to prepare.
Anyway, LOT’s of work to do before MXDU. No rest for the weary. WOOSHAA!!!

Take the Flex Component Survey
Lucian Beebe, Flex Product Manager has a survey he’d like us all to take.
“This is your chance to steer our development efforts to build the Flex components you need and to make it easy on you to develop Flex applications.
It’ll only take three minutes and it will help us all out a lot. You won’t be put on any lists or contacted in any way unless *you* want to talk to someone about your thoughts for components development.
Thank you”
