I am wondering if someone can help me to learn about flash videos. I
there a program I can get that will help me use them for persona
projects like video montages.. I probably need to update my pc, and
will eventurally, but right now, I'd like to know more about them..
have windows xp service pack 3 with explorer 8. I have nero 7 ultra an
I use realplayer sp. Would a newer version of nero help? Any advic
would be appreciated. Realplayer download manager downloads them fo
me , but won't allow me to use them for videos. If I can wait just
little while before replacing my whole pc, that is what I would like t
do, but in the mean time, can someone help me out here. Much thanks!
 
I'm not an expert by a long, long way...

However, I'll tell what I know....

"Flash Movies" (extensions; .flv .swf & .exe files) are not like other movie format
files.

They are viewed uniquely through the Macromedia Flash Player (now owned by Adobe)
which is usually a browser add-on but can be a stand-alone "projector" that is a
[.exe] program that is capable of playing them.

This "projector" is capable of cloning and appending itself to another flash file to
create a new [.exe] "projector".

The form of the media is also unique, as it supports script functions - like being
able to point and click at special pre-defined areas within flash movies, as links to
applications, websites (URLs) and other scripted functions.

Flash "movies" can also be entire games, due to the "programmable" nature of it's
scripting language.

Flash "movies" can be very different in their appearance and use, from advertisements
with links that animate only a few frames, to a complete two-hour movie.

Some more information can be had by going to :

Not necessarily mp3 encoding - flash video also supports the "Nellymoser Asao",
"Speex" and AAC compression plus the uncompressed ADPCM formats.
