Friends,
Can you tell me how avi files can be brought to flash movie
 
I'm quoting directly from Macromedia's Flash Support Center:

Can an AVI or MPEG movie be imported into Flash?
No, they cannot be imported. These formats are not supported by Flash. Some digital video applications can output a movie as a series of bitmaps. These can be imported into Flash and each put on a frame of the timeline to recreate the movie.:-(
 
You can't do it really!
You can use QT movies this way:

(REPEAT FROM OTHER THREAD)

From the Flash 4 Help file:

Using QuickTime movies

When you import a QuickTime movie into Flash, the movie file does not become part of the Flash file. Instead, Flash maintains a pointer to the source file. You can scale, rotate, and animate a QuickTime movie in Flash. You can play and set the path of the movie in the Library.

When you import a QuickTime movie, only the first frame of the movie is displayed. For more information on publishing your Flash file as a QuickTime movie, see QuickTime publish settings.

To play a QuickTime movie:

1 Add the number of frames on the Timeline that correspond to the length of the QuickTime movie you want to play.
2 Choose Control > Play.

To set the path of a QuickTime movie:

1 Choose Window > Library and select the QuickTime movie you want to edit.
2 On the Options menu, choose Properties and click Set Path in the Video Properties dialog box.
3 Enter the new location of the QuickTime movie.

Or you can take a look at this FAQ: faq250-756 #45. AVI WITH CONTROLS
