I've been looking for video to flash converters for my project. This project is about creating a movie booking website. So the flash output that appears on the webpage shows the trailers of the movies.
I'd like freeware of any versions of good working video to flash converters. Does anyone knows of any to recommend? |

I know you can actually just import a video file into Macromedia Flash ..but the problem is it is not freeware , but if its only gona be short term design...you could download the free trial of it just for the sake of importing it there and then exporting as flash....

A Free one?! Your never going to find one, i'm sorry.
I Also searched for one years ago and also recently, and no luck. Now i'm using a program wich is not free, but to tell you the true, i did not payed for it. Sorry to post again, but we can't edit our posts. What i ment to say is that the best programs for that purpose aren't free, those 2 free programs above don't make a very good job, you will see the final conversion doesn't have too much quality. Anyway, good luck. merged posts. use report button next time, lyon. this is an informal warning, you should know better being a member of long standing in the forums.

QUOTE(serverph @ Jan 24 2006, 03:17 AM) here's a freeware for you: TURBINE VIDEO http://www.blue-pacific.com/products/turbinevideo/ features include: ...  Thanks but sadly, it's not a free product. It's just a demo that still shows its logo at the corner of all its output swf files as a link back to TurbineVideo website in its free version. It stated itself as the free version but actually it resembles a demo only. Thanks for that introduction anyway.. QUOTE(delivi @ Jan 24 2006, 05:36 AM) Thanks but I don't need FLV versions. I require SWF output format instead. Anyway I've tried that program but it somehow failed most of the time without stating any reason when I attempted to convert the videos to FLV, thinking I would then convert into SWF again. It didn't helped in any way. But thanks again for that introduction of that product. QUOTE(Lyon2 @ Jan 24 2006, 04:06 PM) A Free one?! Your never going to find one, i'm sorry.

Yes I've to agree with you totally. At first I thought serverph and delivi some really free stuffs, but later found out to be actually demos only, convinced me that there's no free alternatives to video-swf conversion. So what program are you using right now? Probably I'd have to purchase the same one as what you are currently using if it's a good product. Probably you would like to post a link so I can get more information about that product. Thanks.. |

In the free and open source CamStudio package (http://sourceforge.net/projects/camstudio/), you can find an AVI to SWF converter. You might also be interested in the screen capture portion of it (actually the main part of the package), just read the help file a little bit before using either.
