DD or other asking for Convert movies into flash FLV format

[Hellfighter]

i seem to remember some one asking for something that take DVD movies or home Movie into flash formate

anyways i found it "totally free"

Riva FLV Encoder enables you to encode video files to Flash video (.FLV) files. It currently supports the most common video formats, including AVI, DV, MPEG, MOV, and WMV, and includes a player to preview the converted .FLV file. The program supports custom output settings and allows you to save your configuration as profile for easy access. Version 2.0 includes FLV 1.1, cropping, and padding.

Who said free had to be flimsy, too? This robust video converter ably packs a number of file formats into the Flash video format and is stylish to boot. Riva FLV Encoder works well with the usual suspects: AVI, WMV, MPEG, and MOV files. With a graceful, well-designed interface that shows its developers care about details, this video converter also offers a healthy set of conversion options. Frame rate, bit rate, and audio-compression options all can be set to your preferences. The program can "cut" video files into JPEG images, if needed. We were very impressed with Riva's conversion speed during our tests. Another nice detail is the inclusion of several presets depending on your network type (ISDN or DSL, for example). What's more, you can easily save settings to save time later. Overall, Riva is a great freeware application for Webmasters looking for a reliable (and inexpensive) way to convert video files to the Web.

from 110 MB blink to AVI 2.16GB to 16.3mb flv

thats a big change. i may redo all the screen saver for the DF-Serials & JTRO thinking about it.

you need
RAD Video Tools blink tool to use.
then you take the blk file change it to avi file type then take that and use "Riva FLV Encoder" to make it into FLV file type.

it don't know what a .bik file type is not made for it.

but you can change it by making it into a avi it will know how to handle that now.

get RAD Video Tools left side you see it listed as "Bink"
download page link: http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm
general info link: http://www.radgametools.com/bnkmain.htm

they say it ok to use the tool as long its not being use for retail items or encluded into a program package of some type of game.

The Bink and Smacker players can be distributed free of charge, and a pop-up credit window will appear at closing. Or, you can license a non-logo/credit window version of our players as well.

keep in mind there is no popup or logo when taken a bink file and change it into a avi only see the bink logo in bink file type (bik)

gotcha...

[Hellfighter]

in the RAD Video Tools
you highlite the bik file you like to change to avi file type, then you click-on convert button in it then follow through, you don't need to change any setting even if there no info in the box's still will change
