I wish to post movies I have created on my website but they need to be in
flash movie file format before I can download them. How do I convert my
movie maker file to the flash movie format? The programs I have seen for
flash movies want me to start from scratch. I have put many hours into
creating the MM files. HOw do I get them onto my webpage? I have saved them
in MM as files on my computer, but these are unacceptable to the webpage
program.

you need a WMV to Flash converter

there is a free one here

Free Video to Flash Converter

http://www.snapfiles.com/get/freevidflash.html

there is also this but I tested it and it doesnt work it seems on vista? Im
not sure

Free Riva FLV Encoder 2.0
http://www.rivavx.com/index.php?downloads0&L=3

alternatively you can just upload your video to YOUTUBE for it to be
converted, and then redownload it with this site as FLV

www.keepvid.com

tell me if any of this helps

oh by the way you can stream WMV files from a web page without converting
them first

read this page that has the code

http://www.mediacollege.com/video/fo...dia/streaming/


Embedding Windows Media Files
Embedding a Windows Media file places the video clip on the web page, as per
the example on the right. To create a simple embedded video file like this,
use the code below (swap both instances of videofilename.wmv for your own
file name).

<OBJECT ID="MediaPlayer" WIDTH="192" HEIGHT="190"
CLASSID="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95"
STANDBY="Loading Windows Media Player components..."
TYPE="application/x-oleobject">
<PARAM NAME="FileName" VALUE="videofilename.wmv">
<PARAM name="ShowControls" VALUE="true">
<param name="ShowStatusBar" value="false">
<PARAM name="ShowDisplay" VALUE="false">
<PARAM name="autostart" VALUE="false">
<EMBED TYPE="application/x-mplayer2" SRC="videofilename.wmv"
NAME="MediaPlayer"
WIDTH="192" HEIGHT="190" ShowControls="1" ShowStatusBar="0" ShowDisplay="0"
autostart="0"> </EMBED>
</OBJECT>

The Windows Media player which appears on the page can be customised to some
extent; for example, you can choose whether or not to show the playback
controls, status indicator, etc. For more information see Embedding Windows
Media Files and Examples of Embedded Files.
