Create MOV from Flash freezes - SOLUTION

I was trying to create a MOV file from Flash CS4 and the progress bar filled up and froze while doing "Recording Flash Content". Thanks to this post http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=275007 it turns out that I had additional keyframes after a stop() action and had chosen to export until the end of the timeline was reached.

But since the stop action occurred before the end of the timeline was reached then of course it froze. There are two workaround. One is to remove the stop() action or just set the timeframe that you want to stop exporting. So in this case I just set to to only export 2 minutes.

Brilliant.. thanks Kirupa forum!
