When i generate the pdf with respect to the PDF reference with embeded file stream of an avi file, it works file with Media Rendition but not work for Movie Annotation.
For the file specification, i set both F and EF. The result seems that the Media Rendition respects the EF to get the embedded resource. But when dealing with Movie Annotation, the Acrobat Reader 9.0 only try to get the file on the disk from path stored in F.
I know in PDF reference, there is no guide line for the F entry in Movie Annotation. I would like to know whether there is detailed rule for Acrobat on this?
Given the removal of legacy media authoring from Acrobat X and the default blocking of legacy playback, people still creating content using the obsolete system should switch to use only multimedia objects, which in your case you know works fine.
