Converting MPG and other video to FLV/SWF

To be honest with you, the best program to use is the Adobe FLV converter. We used to use Sorenson Squeeze at our company, but we started having random problems with the encoding, like the "complete" event not firing and cuepoints being all screwed up. In Adobe Labs there is even a utility one may download for fixing these encoding peoblems, but then I asked myself, "Self, why do I want to run two programs when you could just use one?" There is also a utility from On2 (who created the current codec used to make FLVs). It has an insane number of parameters one may customize when compressing. Oh yeah - and be careful about which versions of MPEG you use. Anything less than MPEG-4 and you'll run into issues of losing the audio since it is compressed into the same track as the video.

Thanks! Great advice!
