Mrs. Mecomber's Scrapbook Talking technology, computers, and the Internet… for the average computer user

I hope you aren’t all tired of my video-based topics. I am STILL looking for a perfect video editing program… sighhhh. But the things I am finding along the way are very good. They just aren’t what I am looking for at this time. However, that is the beauty of having a blog. Here I can post my findings for sharing (and I do hope some of these you find helpful in some way) and they also serve as “bookmarks” for me in case I need something at some time in the future. I ALWAYS get a good, functional “search” feature when I use a blog theme, because I am always comeing back and searching my own blog for things I mentioned months ago.

To make a long story short, here’s another jewel I found– convert your videos to Flash. I love Flash, because it takes up less space, is less bulky, and just about every browser can use it. This software program is called Riva VX. It’s a Flash-encoder.

This encoding program will transcode your video files into FLV format (that’s the file name for Flash movies). The Riva VX works with AVI, MPEG, WMV, Quicktime. And the program is free, which is always nice.
