Re: [flexcoders] Video Controller

[Abdul Qabiz]

Hi,Adobe Flash Player can only player .flv files, you can however covert other videos types (.avi, .wmv etc) to .flv using Open Source tool FFMPEG.Conversion takes depending on the length and compression of the video files. Some of the conversions might not work properly..
You also have to take care of different licensing issues..-abdulOn 9/11/06, greg h <[EMAIL PROTECTED]

            KP,

You are correct that the Flex 2 mx.controls.VideoDisplay and the 

flash.media.Video that it utilizes are FLV only (either streaming via FMS or progressive).

Regarding running video files with different formats
(.mov,.mpeg,wmv,etc.), yes that was commonplace with Flash prior to the
introduction of the FLV format with Flash Player 6.

I came up with the following after googling:  Flash Quicktime
Integrating Flash and QuickTime for Dynamic Media Delivery

If you can integrate Flash with the playback of other video formats,
surely you can do it with Flex 2.  But I advise that you should
not expect components from Adobe for supporting streaming formats other
than FLV.  Not with FLV now so ubiquitous, and with the solid
quality with the FLV On2 codec introduced with Flash 8.

If others do not post with more here about integrating Flex in players
for other video formats, you might try posting also on the Flashcoders list.

Is there any way of running video files with different formats.
