Subject:Including videos in a Flare Webhelp system From:kafkascampi <kafkascampi -at- gmail -dot- com> To:TECHWR-L Writing <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Tue, 23 Feb 2010 10:04:56 -0800
I am hoping to include some Show Me How videos in my help topics. I'm using
Screenflow to capture the video, which saves as MOV. I can convert these to
FLVs--but Flash wants SWFs. I have tried a converter, but it results in SWF
videos of poor quality. I am thinking I need to embed a video player in the
Webhelp, so users can view the FLVs. Does anyone have experience with this
they can share with a video newbie? Recommendations for video players?
thanks!
Chris
