Which Flash Player?

#1 08-27-2008, 11:32 PM

I have both Flash 8 and CS3 currently installed on my system.

I have created a flash movie using CS3, AS 3 and the Flash 9 player selected
for publishing.

When playing the published SWF file (outside the browser) the Flash 8 player
seems to be invoked (according to the window title which reads: Macromedia
Flash Player 8. In this mode, the movie does NOT play correctly.

When played in a browser or testing the movie with control->test movie from
within Flash, the movie plays fine.

Is the Flash 8 player really being used instead of the Flash 9 player? If
yes, how can I get the default player to be Flash 9?

it is your default player setting, which can be easily changed.
right click flash file - open with - browser and look for Flash 9 Player
then set it, to "always use the selected program to open that kind of file"
