SWF quality reduced, even though qulaity is correctly set to 'high'? #61

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set desktop colour quality to 16bit instead of 32bit
2. Embed an swf using SWFObject
3. In same document, embed swf using <embed> tag

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to see identical quality SWFs on the page.  However, the swf 
embedded using the SWFObject is lower.  There seems to be a 'mottled' 
effect there (like when some browsers struggle to render swf 
transparency).  However, the quality of both is correctly set to 'high'.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SWFObject 2.0, XP SP2

Please provide any additional information below.

I retested this on an XP/SP2 machine (both in IE7 and FF2) but didn't see a
difference, so my conclusion is that this isn't a generic issue.

Please note that 16-bit rendering is a complex topic, e.g. it also depends on 
how
your available hardware. In principle something could go wrong at any place in 
the
rendering chain: plug-in < browser < OS < hardware.

Logically you could explain a difference between static and dynamic Flash 
rendering
that at a browser level things are interpreted differently, e.g. one mechanism 
uses
dithering by the OS and the other by the graphical card.

In any case I don't think that from a SWFObject point of view there is much we 
can do
about this.
