How to import

We'll first start of with learning how to Import Movie clips and Export them as a series of images. 

  1. Launch Flash 5 and go to Modify > Movie. Set the Movie's width and height to 200 x 240 respectively. Then import the QuickTime movie by clicking on File > Import. Browse to the folder where you have the "Sample.mov" on and Import it by pressing the "Open button". See image below:

If you're FPS is set to 12, then the you should see the "X" on after Frame 37. See image below:
