Performance increase with BitmapData
I’m working on a project that everything eats performance, using FLV videos, animated smooth Bitmaps, Papervision3D and everything else…
So I started desperately find a way to increase the flash performance.
So, I realized that using BitmapDatas instead using many sprites and FLV videos helped really much.
I mean, instead adding a full screen FLV streaming video on your background, add a Bitmap child on your background that draws the FLV child.
I didn’t make any benchmarks, but, at least on this project it’s helping me speeding up my heavy processing flash.

Sounds interesting! Did you build a flv-bitmapdata converter!??! For my last project I used hexagonstars animted bitmap class which was very helpful. http://blog.hexagonstar.com/animatedbitmapclassupdate/

But this is a great idea to do that !!!
Thanks again
ps : i said i’ll answer you by mail ( i ask you by mail about this performance problem) , but i was to speed until now … sorry
