Unexpected file format when trying to open a .fla file

Question

I am trying to customize a video player skin from f4player (http://code.google.com/p/f4player/downloads/detail?name=f4player-beta-v1.00.zip [the file is mySkin.fla]).

I am using flash cs3 pro and I get the error "Unexpected file format" when trying to open the file, a friend has flash cs4 and has the same error.

Is there something I could do to open this .fla file correctly?

Or maybe if someone could try opening it and saving it again for cs3?

Answer 1

It's a Flash CS5 document, so you need Flash CS5 (or 5.5) to edit it. You could download a trial version from adobe.com.
