Converting Mpeg or AVI to Flash

**Bytemrk** · 12th July 2007, 10:03 AM

Hi Guys,

I have a need to convert some training videos to a format I can stream off the net for some remote staff.

I have been messing around converting to Flash through "Sothink Video encoder."

All is good until the videos have much movement - in which case I start to get very pixelated messy images..

I'm continuing to struggle with frame rates etc to try and improve them.. but as some of the end users have pretty poor internet connections I need to be wary of file sizes.

Any Video gurus out there with suggestions of cheap ( or even better free...) solutions to my problems?

..... (or at least the video related ones

)

Currently using Ulead Video studio to edit the original video from the camera .. which works fine... the problems occur in the conversion for Ulead to flv..

Ah you could try google there are lots of listing for MPEG to AVI programs. Then after you pick the one you want to try...... try bittorrent, some one out in the www might like to share it

Adobe Premier Elements 3 can do it - just checked.

Rovernaut.. you are a bad boy.......

Actually the Avi / Mpeg side is fine.. that is looked after by Ulead video studio perfectly for our needs... I just need to convert the files to .swf to run through an online training package.. and what I curently have works... but the quality is a bit questionable..

The product Inc suggested looks pretty good..

As far as "DEMO" versions... I work in IT... plenty of options other than bit torrent if you know how to drive the internet
