  Premiere Pro 1.5 export for .flv

  Posted by Jane Griffiths on March 31, 2008 at 12:32 pm

  I have a ten minute corporate video (Pal) which I need to deliver to the company who’s creating a DVD. They need to import it into Flash. There is no option to export a .flv file from Adobe Premier Pro 1.5. We have tried various different options, but they either freeze at a certain point or play jerkily. Ideally I need to create a file which will fit onto a DVD to deliver to them, which will play smoothly and work in Flash. I do have an external hard drive if the only option is a bigger file.

  Any suggestions??

  (I seem to remember Prem 6 having much simpler export options. Does it export to .flv? If so, I do have a working version of Prem 6 and could import the whole project as a single .avi. I would prefer to try and do from Prem 1.5 tho)

  Using Adobe Prem Pro 1.5, Windows XP, Canopus Rex.

  Hi Jane,
  You sound like an Aussie 😉
  I’m in Melbourne, so if you are near I might be able to help you directly if you can’t get it sorted with your own software.
  Premiere 6 won’t do FLV. Premiere Pro 1.5 won’t either.
  Flash can and will convert a movie file into FLV on import, set by the user.
  If this is for DVD, not sure why this is being built with Flash and not a DVD Authoring software like EncoreDVD?
  10minutes of video I’m pretty sure would fit into a 4gig DV AVI file that can then be burnt onto a DVD.
  Let me know. 😉

  Hi Jon – right hemisphere, wrong continent! I’m South African. Thanks for the response. That’s exactly the route I landed up going. I gave the client a DV AVI file on DVD. But this is what started my query – it apparently froze one minute in. So I was looking for an alternate option. They landed up sorting it out by bringing it in through Adobe After Fx. I’m not sure why they are using Flash for a DVD?? My involvement ended with creating the video. They are happy now, so I can relax! (And invoice!)

  Changing? Who wants to change something? It’s perfect as it is!!
