This is a Flash project to modify and build the "ExpressShow" and "ExpressShow External Media" playback SWF template used by TechSmith's Camtasia Studio 6.x product. I need A Flash developer to modify the playback SWF to change the template look, feel and branding to match my website and company.

All visual assets are stored within a file named [url removed, login to view] To modify most of the visual appearance of the player can be altered by modifying the vector symbols contained in this FLA.

## Deliverables

The ActionScript 2 source code is also provided in order to allow for total customization of the wrapper. There are are two locations where you will find the source code. The path, xsframework\src, is the location of the TechSmith component framework used to build ExpressShow. The path, expressshow\src, is the location of the ExpressShow application. This code leverages the xsframework to build the wrapper functionality found in ExpressShow.

Compiling the ExpressShow Project:

1) Compiling requires the user to have Flash 8 IDE or greater installed. This is required because of a dependency on the v2 Tree component provided with Macromedia / Adobe Flash 8.

2) Actual compilation is done with the open source MTASC compiler. Binary copies of MTASC for Windows and Mac are provided in the project for your convenience.

3a) To compile "ExpressShow" via the commandline, open the command prompt, cd (change directory) to the root of the expressshow directory and execute the MTASC arguments below? after replacing the path to the Macromedia / Adobe v2 Components:

mtasc\[url removed, login to view] -swf assets\[url removed, login to view] -out bin\[url removed, login to view] -main -cp src -cp ..\xsframework\src -cp "C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\en\Configuration\Classes" -mx -version 8 com\techsmith\camtasia\[url removed, login to view]

3b) To compile "ExpressShow External Media" via the commandline, open the command prompt, cd (change directory) to the root of the expressshow directory and execute the MTASC arguments below? after replacing the path to the Macromedia / Adobe v2 Components:

mtasc\[url removed, login to view] -swf assets\[url removed, login to view] -out bin\[url removed, login to view] -main -cp src -cp ..\xsframework\src -cp "C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash 8\en\Configuration\Classes" -mx -version 8 -keep com\techsmith\camtasia\esvideo\[url removed, login to view]

An optional Apache Ant build file is provided to allow easy configuration and building of the project. Ant is a free, open source build tool used by many web development projects. You can download Ant via the URL below.

When building "ExpressShow External Media" you should note that the security sandbox of the asset swf is set to "network only". In order to allow local playback (files not hosted on a web server) the [url removed, login to view] file should be republished with its local sandbox set to "Access local Files only": File --> Publish Settings --> Flash --> Local playback security --> Access local files only. This step is not needed with "ExpressShow" content since no external files are loaded. If the Ant build file is used this step is not necessary as the [url removed, login to view] is executed to flip this flag on the binary SWF.

5) Copy the [url removed, login to view] and [url removed, login to view] from the expressshow\bin directory and replace the SWFs installed with Camtasia Studio 6.x. By default, the path to these SWFs are:

C:\Program Files\TechSmith\Camtasia Studio 6\Media\Studio\Swf

Make sure to back up the installed SWF before overwriting or deleting.

All subsequent ExpressShow productions from Camtasia Studio 6.x will now reflect any changes you made to the fla or the swf file.
