Hi! I need to turn a Flash movie into a screensaver for a company's computers. They are running all PC's with Windows. I know I can make screensavers out of Flash files on a PC, but is there a program that will let me do this on my Mac? The firm I'm with has all Mac's and no VPC.

Lmk if you know of a program, or more importantly have worked with one...

Thanks!

For MacOS X:

SaveHollywood 1.5.1 - screensaver module, runs QuickTime and Flash movies

iScreenMaker 1.1 - Screensaver creation tool

ScreenTime for QuickTime 2.0 - Make QuickTime media into screen savers

--------------

There are also several flash screensaver maker applications for MacOS 9. You can find them by going to www.versiontracker.com

BTW, I think you would get more response if you posted in OS X - Software

Hope this helps

Thanks, maybe I'll start a new thread there. I'm actually looking for a program that will allow me to create Windows screensavers on the Mac. As far as I can see all those above only make savers for the mac os.

if you have VPC, just grab the pc versions of those apps. you can test the savers work then as well
