Hi Dan,

Yes, it can make the post processing that the client machine has to do
more processor intensive.  I think the defaults are fine - but I wanted to
try to get every last drop of quality/performance out of my FLV files with
the expectation that most people would have a fast enough computer.

>From the docs, here are the basic entries on deblocking and smoothing:

----

deblocking (Video.deblocking property)
public deblocking : Number

Indicates the type of deblocking filter applied to decoded video as part
of postprocessing. Two deblocking filters are available: one in the
Sorenson codec and one in the On2 VP6 codec. The following values are
acceptable: 

0 (the default)--Let the video compressor apply the deblocking filter as 
needed. 
1--Do not use any deblocking filter. 
2--Use the Sorenson deblocking filter. 
3--Use the On2 deblocking filter and no deringing filter. 
4--Use the On2 deblocking and the fast On2 deringing filter. 
5--Use the On2 deblocking and the better On2 deringing filter. 
6--Same as 5. 
7--Same as 5. 

If a mode greater than 2 is selected for video when you are using the
Sorenson codec, the Sorenson decoder defaults to mode 2 internally.

Use of a deblocking filter has an effect on overall playback performance,
and it is usually not necessary for high-bandwidth video. If your system
is not powerful enough, you may experience difficulties playing back video
with this filter enabled.

----

smoothing (Video.smoothing property)
public smoothing : Boolean

Specifies whether the video should be smoothed (interpolated) when it is
scaled. For smoothing to work, the player must be in high-quality mode.
The default value is false (no smoothing).

Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 6
