hi
i want to put an avi (video) in flash , but flash does not allow importing of avi(flash 5) is there any other way ,
do i have to convert avi to some other acceptable format?
and if yes then how, is there any small (and free) converetr available.
thanx in advance

The only way is to re-import a bitmap sequence outputed from the QT player or some video editing application. Be prepared for a very big zise movie...
Or you could get someone with Flash MX to output an embedded video .swf, and then simply load that .swf as an external movie in your Flash 5 main movie.
 
Look for free CamStudio to convert .avi to .swf.

(For some reason, it's taking a LONG time to convert files - never used to be that slow - so I'm looking for another converter. Anyone know one?)
