Ppro CC2014 Export f4v media, ???
Started using the PremierePro CC 2014. Went to Export/ Media and attempted to render my file as a Flash, f4v. No such option in the pull down meneu. What is the move if I need this file for upload to Youtube or other posting? Previous Premiere Pro CC included Flash as an option and it was easy. Any idea?

Hi Chuck,
Here’s a handy blog post from Todd Kopriva that covers this topic.
After Effects CC 2014 (13.0), Premiere Pro CC 2014 (8.0), and Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 (8.0) do not include exporters for creating FLV and F4V files.
You can still import videos in FLV and F4V formats into After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder. You can still import videos in the F4V format into Premiere Pro.
If you want to create a video to play in Flash Player, then you should generally be using H.264 (.mp4), not the obsolete FLV or F4V formats. This has been the recommendation from the Adobe Flash team for quite some time already (as far back as Flash Player 9).
We removed the exporters for FLV and F4V files from the Adobe video applications (Adobe Media Encoder, After Effects, and Premiere Pro) because maintaining these obsolete exporters was a large amount of work, and we could better spend that effort on developing new features and fixing bugs in areas that are used by more people.
We are still committed to creating video files that play well in Flash Player, and that is why we are focusing our efforts on the H.264 (.mp4) exporter, which is what is currently recommended by the Adobe Flash team.
If you do still have a need to create FLV or F4V files for some legacy workflows, then we recommend that you keep the previous versions—Adobe Media Encoder CC (7.2) and After Effects CC (12.2.1)–installed alongside the current versions. Then, whenever you need to transcode or export a file in one of these legacy formats, you can just start the previous version of the application for this specific purpose.

Peter,
…with all due respect, when was the last time you attempted to import an FLV file as a source into any version of Media Encoder CS6 or later?
At least in my experience on Windows, FLVs have been un-importable compression in AME since CS6. If you end up with FLVs to edit for some unfortunate reason, you are…or at least I’ve been…out of luck.

[Tim Kolb] “FLVs have been un-importable compression in AME since CS6”
I’m pretty sure I’ve imported and converted .flv files with the MAC versions
of AME CS6 and CC. -
On Windows, I know I can’t import FLV on CC, and I went back and double-checked AME CS6 before I posted.
Are there Windows users who can load an FLV into Media Encoder CS6?
(I only have to do this on rare occasion, but i do recall needing to convert some FLVs when CS6 was current…but I could not load them)

FLV is no longer offer in Media Encoder CC but Flash CC is asking only for that format to embed my video. Very frustrating! How can I embed my After Effect rendered video in Flash then?
