Convert a Video to Flash Video

M

any sites today include video. Although shooting and producing video is a skill in and of itself,

placing the video on the Web is not difficult, thanks to Flash. Flash video is the most popular

video format found on the Web today, and is used on thousands of sites including YouTube and

Facebook. The video format your camera uses will not be compatible with Flash Player, so the first

step in getting video onto your Web site is to convert it to the Flash Video format. The Adobe Media

Encoder, included free with any of the Creative Suite editions, performs this task for you.
