Flash Video questions
Posted by: M A V I C

Does anyone know of an app (for Windows) that will streamline the process for publishing Flash Video to a web site? I have a client who wants to be able to make short video clips and publish them to the web. I'm looking for some sort of solution where I could set all the prefs like size, quality... and they would just have to select the video and hit a button. Having the upload automated as part of that would be nice too.

Anyone know of anything like that?

TIA

Don't know if this will do it for you but we use it at work and it's a nice program:

If you are looking for a complete solution to do all that you listed above, then you need a server side application like Turbine Video Engine SDK, or On2 Flix, but they're not cheap.
You can also use ffmpeg on the server side but apparently it's a little buggy, it seems that the alternative is to use Mencoder (via MPlayer and flvtool2 to create streaming flash.
You can read more about it here, [blog.kovyrin.net] (using Lighttpd server), and here, [blog.kovyrin.net] using Nginx.
Of course they could just use [www.flvhosting.com] which is what [getyoutube.com] uses.
As far as converting video on my own Windows pc, I like a free program called Super, get it here, [gpl.download.free.fr].





The Taoist Zhuangzi said, "Good order results spontaneously when things are let alone".
The sociologist, and historian, Adam Ferguson described the phenomenon of spontaneous order in society as the "result of human action, but not the execution of any human design".

How 'bout VisualHub?

Got a Macworld's 2006 Editors' Choice Awards, and only $23

I downloaded the demo and it seems like a really nice program. Fast, too.

Edit: Oops... you said for Windows.

OK, so the solution is buy a Mac, THEN buy VisualHub.





Don't ask who the bell's for, dude. It's you.
