Good question. I don't know yet. I'll try it out and see what I can
do with it, however, I doubt that I can use a DIVX compressed avi file
in it. I suspect the filesize isn't going to be pretty whatever the
results...
Flash MX 2004 has an optional video pak and the latest Flash (8,
maybe?) has it built in. It converts the files actually in the Flash
compression (which now includes it's own flash codec to keep things on
the smaller size.)
There is an program from SwishZone that allows you to convert video
files into that sort of flash file. It's 50 dollars or so, if I
remember correctly. I don't have that program from them.
Flash 5 supported the embedding of Quicktime Movies, but not AVIs.
