had look around about this.. not getting much luck.
Any of you know how to assign _quality = "whatever" to individual MC's, I've tried
mc._quality = "whatever" but it seems to set the quality of the whole movie. (i basically want the swf to run in "high" but assign "best" to a few small bitmaps)...

I thinks its ona per SWF basis, so unless yr loading SWfs in it will be for the entire movie, check help in flash (F1)

As far as I know.. and I've been in and out of Flash now for the past 2 years, quality if for the entire movie.

its the entire movie... although when they first introduced it, their documentation aluded to it being per movie clip... many a wasted day trying to work that out!

Thanks guys - it can't hurt to try the bringing in an external.swf with the _quality set to high. it's only a few bitmaps. I'll give it a try.
Mimeartist, that's what confused me it was actually in the documentation.. I thought i was going mad.
There's a comment on mmlivedocs (that i missed earlier) here:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/f…It a bit of an issue really as high _quality isn't good enough for scaled & rotated bitmaps, & best puts the cpu usage through the roof.
grrrr.

Not a pretty solution, but:
You count mount the image in a div next to the flash. Use LoadVars to trick the browser into caching the image then drop it next to the flash using javascript.
(I'm suggesting this as a best solution, but it's worth researching if you have free time.)

if they are embedded bitmaps you can just adjust their compression quality by clicking on them in the library and selecting properties
