3rd-party softare, such as Sorenson Squeeze, offer VBR - variable bitrate - which means the bitrate will be higher only if required (high motion, fast movements). You can also adjust parameters such as brightness/contrast and de-interlace the source video, which produces better looking results. You'll end up with a FLV that has a better quality-to-space ratio. It's something the Flash IDE or the Flash Video Encoder don't provide.
But for simple and fast compression I use the Flash 8 Video Encoder. It does a great job.
