I think this is right the forum to post this in.
I really like modul8, all the stuff you get for the price and specs is amazing.
But I've got some questions.
First off, I was wondering if it's somehow possible to use the scroll wheel on the mouse to scratch like you can do in quicktime? I don't have many controllers so I try and make the most out of what I have.

Secondly, I've got an Eye tv EZ and I've been wondering if there's any way I can use that as the video capture? Basically I'm thinking about capturing game consoles live, messing around with them a bit, and mixing them in with some vjing. Is this possible?

and finally, I'm sure this has been asked before, but I really can't export transparent backgrounds in flash, I'm using flash 8, but the only tutorials about this I can find are all about using html. Could anyone help me out?

Regarding Flash, as long as we'll use QT to import Flash files, it seems that there is no way to import transparency but exporting to a movie. We plan to move away from QT for Flash support in the future in order to get better performance and better integration.

Thanks for your reply,
the question I had was more about flash I think. No matter how I export them in quicktime, there is always a background.
I use the animation codec, I've set the window mode to transparent, and every setting that can be on alpha is on alpha, so I really can't figure out why it's not working, but I'll keep trying. There's probably a really obvious solution that I just can't figure out.
Thanks,

Niall
