I forgot how to compile flash projects. Anyway, let me explain my specific scenario.

I’m following the instructions here : http://support.brightcove.com/en/docs/using-closed-captions-without-custom-fields to learn how to modify a closed caption plugin for the bright cove video player.

I started by downloading the closed caption module code here: http://files.brightcove.com/ClosedCaptionsModule.zip .

After I downloaded it and unzipped it, I modified the file src/ClosedCaptionsModule.as. Now the instructions tell me to compile this into a SWF file. How exactly do I do that? I looked at all the top menu items in Adobe Flash CS4, but I don’t see any Build or Compile command. The Debug movie and Test movie actions are grayed out.

    To compile a .swf you need to first make a new ActionScirpt 3 project then set the project’s class to “ClosedCaptionsModule”. Also, for simplicity’s sake I would make sure the “ClosedCaptionsModule.as” file is in the same directory as you .fla (project) file, (assuming it is not part of a package).
