About projectors

To create projectors for any version of Windows, you must use the Windows version of Director; likewise, you can create Macintosh projectors only with the Macintosh version of Director.

Projectors require certain Xtras to use text, use Flash movies, connect to the Internet, and use certain other features. Director includes the most common required Xtras by default. You can include or exclude Xtras for each movie using the Include in Projector option in the Movie Xtras dialog box. You can also add Xtras to a projector manually the same way you select movie files. (See Creating projectors.)

In addition to the standard projector, you can create a fast-start projector, which typically launches faster. A fast-start projector doesn't include Xtras inside the projector itself, so there's nothing to unpack.
