which means the bitrate will be higher only if required (high motion, fast

Hi, in my opinion, its better to compress the (avi or mov) video on the
third party software like Soreson order to reduce the file size but keep the
quality, and then convert info flv inside flash. I couldnt find any software
directly converts avi to flv better then flash.
I am open for other idea
Is there any point using a third-party application to optimize video for
Flash.Or is it best just to use the video import feature of the Flash IDE.The

Even if there is a tool, I don't think it would make a difference. My guess
is that FLV video is handled like any other video with regards to keyframes.
That is, the "tween" frames only contain content that has changed,
everything else is transparent. A keyframe, contains all of the information.
Yes, that would be correct. I initially named them MyEvent/ListenerClass but
changed it halfway through writing the email.
