How do I create a screensaver from a Macromedia Shockwave/Flash (*.swf) file?

The success of Flash on the Internet has been truly amazing and Active Screen Saver DevKit has emerged as the premier development environment for creating Flash based screensavers for Windows.

Unlike competing products, the rendering code used by Active Screen Saver DevKit was actually created by Macromedia and is provided to Automated Office Systems as an ActiveX control. What this means to you, is that Active Screen Saver DevKit correctly supports every feature of Macromedia Flash as it was intended. Furthermore, because Active Screen Saver DevKit supports Macromedia Flash via an ActiveX control, the version of Macromedia Flash supported is automatically updated each time a new ActiveX control is installed.

In addition, because Active Screen Saver DevKit supports both major scripting languages (JavaScript & VBScript) the correct version of the Macromedia Flash ActiveX control can automatically be downloaded to the end-user's machine without distributing it with the screen saver.

More Information...

With Active Screen Saver DevKit, displaying a Flash (*.swf) file is no different that displaying the same Flash file in an HTML page designed to be displayed in your browser. Simply create an HTML page containing similar HTML to the following:

<html>

codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash4r28.cab#version=4,0,28,0"

width="100%" height="100%">

</body>

</object>
