There seems to be a color shift in the pallets when you play a .flc file using the autodesk Visual Basic control or DLL calls in Wndows. I have spent a lot of time creating a single pallet to avoid color shift and that anoying flash that is seen when pallets change in a 256 color mode. Still frames extracted from the .fli all carry the special windows pallet I created, but the colors all seem to shift one or two to the right when the .fli is played using the VBX control or DLL. Is this a bug in the control? If so, is there a fix for it? The .flc's look so much better than the .avi's, I was hoping to avoid this conversion.
