Please,
I would like to create .swf movie from folder containing images .jpg
in an applescript workflow.
Any solution would be appreciated, even using third party
applications, unix, c++ or whatever.
For the while, I didn't fin any solution to script Imagesready and
GraphicConverter for this purpose.
Thank you
You have a variety of options.
Many years ago I scripted a Flash workflow (using PreFab player) to use
a Flash template (FLA) and the Update command in the Flash library to
swap in new JPEGs. That cut down a QuicKeys process from a few minutes
to about 12 seconds... later I did it one better, by figuring out where
the JPEGs were being inserted in the resulting SWF and just swapping
the raw binary data in directly to the SWF (and, IIRC, updating a few
other values, probably the length of each JPEG segment). This was
before SWF was a documented format, so I couldn't have done much more
with this, but that much was easy enough. If you can afford between a
few seconds and a minute per SWF, then either of these approaches would
still work today...
Now that SWF is relatively "open" - especially for simple things like
this - there are a bunch of tools/libraries available for generating
SWF.
For instance, Ming:
<http://ming.sourceforge.net/>
You didn't really say what attributes this movie will have... are you
just trying to create a sequence of JPEGs in a SWF? Anything more
complex, like putting each into its own graphic object, or adding
interactivity, or is it just a series of JPEGs on a timeline?
