5005: Unknown Error optimizing byte code
THE PROBLEM:
I encountered a super annoying error message in flash today:
5005: Unknown Error optimizing byte code
I received it when trying to publish a flash file that incorporates several FLV files.
Apparently, Adobe says this error can occur when publishing really large files (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405257), but my FLA is only 1.6 mb and the published SWF is only 345 k. I’m guessing it has to do with the FLVs that are being loaded in.
THE SOLUTION:
Thankfully, I found a concise and easy to use solution here (THANK YOU, Stefig Design! You’re the bestest.):
