How do I actually convert different video format (avi,mpeg,mp4, etc) file to a flash format and view it as flash? People would upload their video files on my server and my server will do the coversion automatically. When people preview the video files, they would see them in flash. I do not want to use any 3rd party software to do the conversion but to build one on my own.

Your help is kindly appreciated.

What do you want to do exactly? why not just to convert video to flash using special software? for example, i do it with FlashConv (flashconv.com), it's easy to use and of a good quality enough.

Hello solomon_13000!
I hope it helps to you.
video to flash converter

It’s my favorite converter. It has one mines it costs but it worth that money!

Geovid actually provide a command line converter which could be used on a server side for converting video to flash. It s Video To Flash Console, or SDK version (http://www.geovid.com/Movie_to_Flash_SDK) that is something similar of what they did at www.vidflash.com with this software. If you dont need a GUI version of course...

have you tried the geovid tool? Does it work? I am looking for a command prompt server side tool for converting to flv. Speedle your my new best friend!!! If this works!!!!

Ok does anyone have a server solution that doesn't cost more than $1000???? That can run on linux/apache. perhaps with php?
