  .flv in avid

  Posted by Shashank Walia on July 1, 2007 at 2:33 pm

  How can I import .flv files i.e. flash video files into my bin in Avid Xpress Pro.

  The video is in low quality and i wont prefer converting as it would lead to quality loss.

  Help will be appreciated.

  FLV isn’t one of the supported formats that Avid will import.
  Technically, FLV is a delivery format and not intended to be edited/manipulated.
  You’re best bet is to either get the original file they made the FLV file from (or get them to output a better quality version in a different format).
  If not convert it to a lossless codec like QT animation, to try to preserve as much of the quality as possible.
