Specifying advanced encoding settings (Flash
Professional only)
The Video Import wizard and the FLV QuickTime Export plug-in let you create your own
video encoding settings to fine-tune the quality and download size of video clips.
For information on importing video using the Video Import wizard, see
using the Video Import wizard" on page
plug-in, see "About encoding video" on page
To specify advanced video encoding settings:
1. The Encode Video check box should be selected by default. If it is not, select it to activate
the advanced encoding options.
2. Select a video codec with which to encode your content from the Video codec pop-up
menu.
If you are authoring for Flash Player 6 or 7, choose the Sorenson Spark codec; if you are
authoring for Flash Player 8, choose the On2 VP6 codec.
3. Select a frame rate.
By default, Flash Video Encoder uses the same frame rate as the source video. Macromedia
recommends using the default frame rate unless you are very experienced with video
encoding, and have a specific application that requires modifying the source video's frame
rate. If you need to alter the frame rate, be sure you understand how modifying the frame
rate affects the video quality.
If you intend to embed video clips within the SWF file, the frame rate of the video clip
must be the same as that used by the SWF. Using the Advanced Video Encoding
settings in the Video Import wizard, you can encode video using the same frame rate
as the FLA file. For more information, see
on page 276.
