helge 0 #1 September 28, 2005 Anyone with experience in exporting video to flash files playable in any web browser with the flash plugin? Any freeware out there that does this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #2 September 30, 2005 Not freeware (and not cheap either) and I have no experience with it, but just happened to come across this: http://www.sorensonmedia.com/solutions/prod/mx_win.php. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 3 #4 October 2, 2005 If your video is less than 10 seconds, 320x240 and 15 fps, you -might- consider making it into a .swf file, but if it's anything longer, then the way to go is to make a .flv file and have the .swf file reference it. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, then it's best to either learn a bit more at the MacroMedia web site or perhaps use a different format altogether. Long video files embedded in .swf files are NOT a good idea.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Such is life when dealing with Flash. 99% of all players I've seen (and 100% of all players I've ever been able to build myself) are configured for specific files or cgi scripting. I -think- Macromedia makes it overly complicated intentionally so that you have to purchase their product to build the players. In all honesty, if I didn't have to deal with .flv files I wouldn't. I think the current QuickTime 7 solution with the H.264 codec is absolutely stunning and you can make your own players without resorting to all this Flash non-sense. Unfortunately, far too many internet companies are now locked into Flash for the web sites and Flash will ONLY play .flv files.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
