Hi folks!
I'm trying to get the best Flash video I can. I can export from my editing program (Final Cut Express) in a number of formats, including QuickTime, mpeg4, and avi. Is there a preferred format such that the final conversion to Flash will be optimum? Any ideas? I realize I'll still have some trial and error, but I was wondering if anyone has any advice. I would appreciate your help immensely. Thanks very much!

Generally, if you have the option to encode to H.264, that will be your best bet. Modern version of the Flash Player (versions 9+) allow for H.264 video playback without any additional encoding. If you don't have that option, then Quicktime would be your second-best bet, as it uses H.264 under the hood.
