[Pro] Flash Banner Alternative?

Is there a way to add an alternative non-Flash banner to a site?

I have Easy Web Animator, which is good (and very slow on my 2009 Mac Mini) but only produces SWF files. I also have BannerZest which is good and produces a non-Flash alternative.

So, how do I get an alternative banner to show if I’ve been using Easy Web Animator?

The alternative would be to go for Motion Composer as this produces HTML5 content too but at £109, it’s a bit expensive.

Easy Web will produce QTime, but you export them if I recall, not save movie. Sorry, been a while.

How do I get Freeway to show the alternative if the browser will not support Flash?

There is also the Swiffy action - just released - which converts SWFs for you. Get it at actionsforge.com

Is it the same when you open the Swiffy generated HTML file directly in your browser?

Hi Kevin,
I fixed a bug with the Action the other day and just uploaded version 1.1 which, hopefully, should resolve your problem.

In my tests Swiffy does reasonably well with Easy Web Animator SWFs although some animations simply break. Be sure to test your files.
Regards,
Tim.

It’s not the action, it’s the Google service.

Hi Kevin,
So does the original Swiffy conversion file play OK or is that broken? As I say of the tests I did with EWA SWFs some worked perfectly, some sort of worked and others (mainly the more complex ones) looked completely broken.
Regards,
Tim.

I tried this when your post first came out. I didn’t need a conversion yet, just an experiment/trial, I may have only tried the Google web site.

The result was that the video opens with a splash of letters (random fall into) forming a sentence at the top of the implosion pieces of the letters got ‘stuck’ as the movie played on.

I will try this again later in both methods later today.
