flash video

Compressor cant do it. You can download Perian (perian.org) and get that free plugin, a restart of your computer should mean that when you reload final cut after restart, you will see FLV in the drop down menu in Quicktime Conversion. If that does not work Visual Hub is cool, out put a file from Final Cut (if your going to flash an H264 file usually does me, amend the kbps to fit

Nope, it’s no longer cool.

Unfortunately, Visual Hub has announced that they are leaving the business, and their app is now gone, gone, gone as they’ve taken down all links to the download.

Too bad, Visual Hub was indeed a cool and free tool.

Wow are they mad? Im glad I got it whilst I could! The somewhat annoying thing is I was planning to reformat the mac this week!

I just went through that myself and found that there is a solution posted on the old website at https://www.techspansion.com/howtobackup.html that tells you how to take the old version over to a new computer. I have not done it yet myself, but I am planing to try it out soon. If you do it please report back and let me (us) know if it worked.

BTW Francis, how good is the quality of the Perian plugin? I’ve never used it myself, and before taking the time to test it I would appreciate hearing what you think.

THNX,

Hi David,

Well it does what it says on the tin. Im on a 1.25GHz so it takes ages to export (6 hrs for a 1 hour SD project) but that is just my processor I think. The final quality is pretty good although I prefer H264. Ive only done a 320×240 @ 400kbps. I read some where that as flash supports H264 all you have to do is change the .mov extension to .flv and it should play. Ive never tried it before but supposedly it works. To sum up its free and it does the job just fine.
