Video conversions? Hey now there is a thought - 'save me a fortune on Camtasia.
Seriously though, why not? Take a look at http://tools.google.com/gapminder If your average GIS can export AVI or QuickTime animations, why not be able to make SWF for a web page? Video is only an attribute anyway, add it to the supported formats gallery. Bruce Harold Geographic Information Solutions <http://www.gis.co.nz> www.gis.co.nz Ph. (64) (0) 9 537 3247 Mb.

I was worried that might happen. Does WMV have the same codec issues? I know flash doesn't so when I find a way to do it, I'll upload it as a flash file.
