How Do I Handle SWF Video Playback Issue Freely

Different strokes for different folks. It also makes sense that hobby varies depending on the personalities of different persons. For instance, the people with strong logical thinking ability love making small inventions. While the ones who are fun-loving and creative will likely to enjoy hobbies related to arts, such as drawing, painting, sculpting or fashion design.

.

As to myself, I have got many hobbies including reading, drawing, cooking, listening to music, doing sports, watching various movies/videos, etc. I would spend much of my spare time on videos. You may ask where my source videos from are. To tell you what, I have never bought videos from video stores; instead, I downloaded them from the video-sharing websites such as YouTube, Vimeo, etc. I also get the videos from my friends. In this way, I can appreciate as many videos as possible free of charge, isn't it great?

Up till now, there are a ton of different kinds of videos storing on my computer, such as .mp4, avi, .mov, .wmv, swf, etc.It is good to have so many resources, but handling them is not an easy job. You know, different media players/applications support the specified video formats, for example, if I want to play the funny SWF animation on my HTC One, I have to convert SWF to MP4 Mac, making the animation acceptable by the phone. In order to play all of my videos freely, I decided to download the third-party tool called DoremisoftSWF Converter for Mac. It is said that this converter is able to convert SWF video to any other popular videos such as MOV, MP4, FLV, AVI, WMV, MPEG, MKV, 3G2, 3GP, AVI, DV, etc. Besides, it can also transcode SWF to audios in AAC, MP3, FLAC, M4A, etc with no quality loss on Mac OS. Besides, it supports transferring SWF videos to lots of popular media devices including iPad, iPhone, iPod, Apple TV, Samsung, Kindle Fire, Black Berry, Game Console, HTC, Mobile Phone, etc. After several tests, I found it really of great help. I mean, it not only carries out the conversion quickly, but with superb high output quality as well. Oh, before I forgot, this converter can help to upload SWF videos to websites for sharing. There was one time I wanted to share a piece of wonderful animation on YouTube, I have tried for over four times but failed. Later, I got to know that YouTube cannot support SWF format but FLV instead. So, I turned to the SWF converter for help. To my delight, there are built-in optimal presets for websites including YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook. It didn't take me half an hour before I succeeded in convert SWF to FLV Mac for YouTube. Obviously, I was able to upload the converted animation on YouTube smoothly. Guess what, lots of friends love this video very much.

How to Upload Videos to Personal Websites Easily

Up till now, a large number of people own their personal websites. As we know, a personal website can be used as a bridge to connect us and other people all over the world. We can exchange our thoughts/ideas, share interests/hobbies as well as sharing something interesting such as books, poems, beautiful music/video, TV shows, etc.

Occasionally, we will need to upload some videos to the website for sharing, be it the public websites like YouTube or your our own websites. Some people will find it difficult to do this task. Actually, it will be much easier by following the proper steps as below:

Step 1. Select a Proper Hosting Site. To upload a video, the very first thing we need to do is to choose a proper hosting site for hosting the videos online. Frankly speaking, YouTube is one of the best choices of course; you can choose other popular video-sharing websites such as Vimeo, Hulu, etc as you like. As to uploading videos to our own websites, we can use a content delivery network which offers the customized video players and content management systems, so that we can arrange video publication freely as we wish.

Step 2. Convert and Compress the Source Video File. Due to the format issue, we cannot upload any videos to the websites directly. Before doing so, we will need to convert the source video to the format which can be accepted by the video hosting site we chose. The reason is that most video hosting sites cannot support many video formats, and they also have the limitation for the video size as well. To make it easier to understand, let's give an example: We need to upload some wonderful MP4/MPG/WMV videos to the websites for sharing, but we find that those videos are of large size and cannot be supported by various browsers. So, we will have to convert those video formats to SWF-which's in a much smaller size and has got maximum compatibility with most browsers. That is to say, we need to convert WMV to SWF, MP4 to SWF or transcode MPG to SWF with the help of third-party software.

Step 3.Connect to the Web. As is known to us all, a majority of video-sharing websites and CDNs(content delivery networks) have got a built-in interface, making it very easy to find the source video from our computer and then upload it to the sites. A high-speed internet connection is strongly required to ensure a quick and smooth uploading. Or, you will have to wait impatiently during the video uploading process.

A Quick Look at the PS4 and Xbox One

Currently, the Xbox 360 and PS3 are the top 2 game console kings on the market. It is reported that both of them have sold over 75 million units as of the end of 2012. The Gamescom 2013 delivered an important message to the public that, Sony would finally officially unveil the PS4 on 29 November, while the Xbox One would land on 22 November. Will the next generation prove as popular? Well, it is still too early to tell.
Now, gamers are focusing on the two next-gen consoles. Apparently, there will be furious competition between these new devices. Consumers will be in a dilemma of which one to choose since both of them are doing great. Although there are less than two months away from the final release dates, we still have the luck to get the first hand-on look at the devices. Needless to say, there are great differences in the design, optical drive, motion control, storage, specs, etc. However, they have got the most headline-grabbing feature in common---both PS4 and Xbox One are able to support 4K movie streaming! In simple words, besides playing games, consumers can also play 4K movie with PS4 and the Xbox One or big screen TV. Notes: most 4K movies are recorded in MXF/RAW/XAVC formats which are not supported by either the PS4 or Xbox One. The alternative is use a powerful 4K video converter to convert 4K video to Xbox One or PS4 most friendly MPEG-4 H.264 format.
Enjoying video is great, but the basic function of a console is to play games. Based on a latest investigation, there are 10 most-wanted next-gen games for the Xbox One and PS4. The name list is as below:
1. Tom Clancy's The Division(to be released in 2014)
2. Project Spark(TBD)
3. Watch_Dogs(to be released on Nov. 19, 2013)
4. Titanfall(to be released in Spring 2014)
5. Knack(to be released in November 2014)
6. Destiny(to be released in 2014)
7. The Crew(to be released in Early 2014)
8. Final Fantasy XV(TBD)
9. Quantum Break(to be released in 2014)
10.Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain(TBD)
The Gamescom 2013 unveiled the entire list of games for the PS4 and Xbox 360 which include Assassin’s Creed Black Flag, Battlefield 4, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Skylanders: Swap Force and Watch Dogs, Driveclub, Just Dance 2014, FIFA 14, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Knack, Madden NFL 25, NBA 2K14, NBA LIVE, Need for Speed: Rivals, etc. However, it's not the games that come to both consoles would affect consumers' final buying decision. Instead, the overall performance as well as the price of the devices have the greater influence. What do you think?

Three Reasons of buying a camcorder

You see, men's tastes are various. Some people like reading, some like travelling while others like making movies/videos. The truth is, not every one of them has owned a camcorder, but they do posse some kind of devices capable of recording videos, such as smartphones(iPhone 4S/5, HTC One, Galaxy S4, etc) and tablets(iPad 4/2, new iPad, etc)and more. The remarkable thing is that the quality of the videos recorded by those gadgets isn't not bad--sometimes it is extremely sharp & high-definition. So, here is the question: do we still need to buy a standlone camcorder(Sony Handycam HDR-PJ10,Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS3, etc) since we have already owned something capable of doing the "job"? Does it make sense to get a camcorder?
Actually, it is really a personal choice when comes to the purchasing a camcorder. However, we do find out three reasons for owning a camcorder.
1. Video Quality.

Yes, we have to admit that some smartphones or tablets shoot videos in not bad quality. This is why so many people decided to abandoned camcorders and jumped onto those video-capable devices bandwagon. More and more smartphones are coming up like mushrooms, claiming to offer "superior video quality". However, after professional tests on a camcorder and a smartphone, we can easily find that a high-end camcorder provides much better video performance than a so-called all-in-one smartphone. In fact, this result isn't surprising at all. When comparing a cheap camcorder with an ordinary camera, there is slight difference on the quality of recorded videos. However, a camcorder still excel a camera at the same price range, because most camcorders will have more video recording options as well as the video editing software, helping users to upload video clips to websites such as Facebook or YouTube. Tips: Without any doubt, the built-in editing function in a camcorder cannot measure up to te professional editing systems like iMovie/Final Cut Pro, therefore, if you would like to make the video clips more attractive, it is the best to edit them in the professional editors. For example, get a 4K camcorder, then convert 4K xavc video to mov for editing with final cut pro.
2. Internal Memory

By "camcorder", we mean the one that records on flash memory or a built-in hard drive. Of course, there may be another one memory card slot used to record additional video content. Generally speaking, the memory capacity of a smartphone or tablet isn't quite large. Let's say, the iPhone 5 has not card slot and it provides 1 GB RAM, 16/32/64GB storage at the most. The point is, when you are shooting large amounts of videos especially the HD video , you will be driven crazy by swapping cards or transferring the recorded videos to a computer before continue shooting. No one can bear it, right? As to a camcorder, you won't have that trouble since it provides a very large storage capacity.
3. The Audio

Obviously, a camcorder records audio in better quality than a smartphone or tablet does. The reason lies in the built-in mics they used. Almost all traditional camcorders have got the good quality built-in stereo microphones, but there are some that go above and beyond by including 5.1-channel Dolby Digital microphones instead. While on the other hand, a smartphone will usually use the tiny monaural mics, resulting in bad audio quality. Notes: you can adjust the audio volume by using certain software, for example, when import AVCHD to Final Cut Pro with the help of third-party video converter, you can use the built-in editing features to customize the audio freely.
So, we think it worthy buying a camcorder. What is your idea?

iMovie VS Windows Movie Maker get more close with them

Video post production or we may say extension editing is always a very important issue. There are lots of editing systems available for choices, some people would like to purchase the favorite one based on their actual need while others prefer to use the built-in video editing programs on the computer. As we know, Micrsoft and Apple, the two major computers brands have their own editing software-Windows Movie Maker and iMovie installed on the computers correspondingly. The funny thing is, we will see many people discussing about these two editors and also make a comparison. In my opinion, it doesn't make much sense for the comparison, if any, it will probably like the following.

1.Familiarity
Currently, there are piles of video editing software on the market. Some people may get loss easily. In fact, they are pretty much the same thing. As for Windows Movie Maker and iMovie, both of them have got a viewing screen or two, a time line, effects preset and file navigation. That means, as long as you own certain editing experience, you are able to switch between these systems flexibly. What you need the most is practicing to gain the familiarity of each one.

2.Operation
Honestly, I love Windows movie Maker because it is quite simple and easy to understand. When comes to iMovie? Eeeeee....I don't know. There was a time that I needed to import sony hdr m2ts to imovie for post editing, it took me almost half a day to finish the job. Of course, I spent a little time on fixing the format incompatibility issue, but my point is, iMoive is great with many cool features, but I just cannot get my head around it sometimes. Different from much editing software, iMovie has only one channel for the video and the audio/effects/effects is not set in a time line but a block instead. Whereas Windows Movie Maker...it has two separate channels, one for the vidoe and one for the audio coming with the video, besides, it also has got extra audio track (for backing music or overdubbing) and then a track for your transitions/effects. Tips: to import some recorded videos like AVCHD MTS to Windows Movie Maker for editing, the key point is to convert the MTS to WMM acceptable video format via the third-party software called Windows Movie Maker Converter or MTS to WMV converter developed by Doremisoft.

Overall Comparison
iMovie Pros: 1.sleek and sexy; 2.Easy importing & exporting features; 3. cool features available; 4.Scrubbing tool works really well to find clips
Windows Movie Maker Pros: 1. simple, easy operation; 2.Clear presentation of tools; 3. Time line feature; 4.Easy importing & exporting features.
iMovie Cons:: 1. run on Mac; 2. there is no timeline.
Windows Movie Maker Cons:: 1. run on Windows; 2. there is Not many thrills and spills.

In conclusion, I think both of them have got advantages and disadvantages, what matter the most is that which one can really meet all your demands—kind of preference thing.

How to Play YouTube FLV Videos Offline

As the global leader of video-sharing website, YouTube has brought us much convenience and abundance. It seems that we can find almost all we want there: music, video, news, information, etc. The number of YouTube monthly active users has reached to over 1 billion. Besides, more than 6 billion hours of video are watched each month on YouTube—that's almost an hour for every person on Earth. With so many people hanging there, sometimes, it's not as smooth as we expected to enjoy YouTube FLV videos online. Alternatively, it is a good idea to download and play the videos offline.

It is always easier said than done. Here are the questions asked by some people:
1. "Can someone tell me what's a .flv file and how to either make it into a .avi file and playable in Windows Movie Maker or simply to make it playable. I got a cool little application called download helper, but everything it saves for me is in .flv and I have no clue what to do?". 2. "I just got some YouTube videos(in .flv format), I cannot figure out the right way to play them on my smart phone (Sony Xperia). Please help!". 3. "How can I play YouTube FLV videos on iPhone 5 please?"

Well, before we get started, it's necessary to have a glance at what FLV format is. FLV, short for Flash Video, is a video format used to deliver videos over the Internet using Adobe Flash Player 6/7/8/9. FLV content may also be embedded within SWF files. Currently, there are some brand websites using the FLV file format which include: YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo! Video, MySpace and Reuters.com.

Basically, an FLV file can be opened or played by some programs natively such as Adobe's Flash Player (version 7 and later), RealPlayer, VLC, MPlayer, and other popular media players. Besides, Adobe Premiere Pro can support the editing of FLV file well. However, if you would like to play an FLV file on other programs such as Windows Movie Maker, QuickTime or portable mobile devices like Sony Xperia, it is a must to convert the FLV file to another file type. For example, transfer FLV to Xperia friendly video format like MP4, convert FLV to AVI for Windows Movie Maker, etc. In addition, Apple devices like iPhone 5 has also turned down the support for Adobe Flash Player, that is why iPhone users cannot play the FLV files since they have to use iTunes to manage their media data. In light of this, there is nothing we can do but to import YouTube videos to iTunes before trasferring FLV files to iPhone, iPad, iPod, etc. That is to say, we need to convert FLV to M4V to make YouTube FLV videos acceptable by iTunes.

To solve all of the problems above, a professional and easy-to-use third-party program is enough. Doremisoft FLV Video Converter is the recommendable software specializing in handling the FLV file issues perfectly. The process of conducting the conversion is as easy as eating a pie, which goes like this: import FLV video file--set output format--edit the video optionally--start to convert.

How to Import AVCHD MTS/AVCHD Lite to iMovie/FCP

Ditigal cameras are always expecting a prospect market. In the past two years, the global sales of digital cameras have tripled. Based on the latest report, Canon, Sony and Panasonic had a commanding lead of the counterparts. Meanwhile, Panasonic Lumix series outshine its families and receive lots of favor from lots of people. Lumix series, range from pocket models to digital SLRs, its first two models DMC-LC5 and DMC-F7 were launched about twelve years ago, likely in 2001. In 2009, the AVCHD and AVCHD Lite were introduced by Panasonic to be used for the Lumix line products.

AVCHD Lite is a subset of AVCHD format which delivers videos at 30 frames/s with 720-line resolution. The DMC-ZS3/DMC-FT1/DMC-TZ7 models were released by Panasonic in 2009, they were considered to be the first digital cameras that offered the AVCHD-lite movie mode. From then on, more and more Panasonic digital cameras (Lumix DMC-G2, Lumix DMC-FZ35/38, Lumix DMC-FX75, LEICA D-LUX 5, LEICA V-LUX 2, Lumix DMC-TZ10/ZS7, etc) adapted the AVCHD-lite format.

"I used Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 to shoot some family videos, but I couldn't import them to iMovie for post editing". True! This is the most frequently asked question of many Panasonic Lumix camera users. Most professional editors such as iMovie (iMovie 8/9/11), Final Cut Pro(FCP 6/7),Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid, After Effects and more cannot recognize the AVCHD(.mts)/AVCHD Lite formats at all. That is exactly the reason why users cannot import Panasonic Lumix AVCHD to iMovie directly. In fact, we can break off the format limitation by using the third-party software. To put it another way, we can convert AVCHD to FCP, iMovie, Adobe Premiere Pro or other eidtors freely if we are able to transcode Panasonic lumix AVCHD(.mts)/AVCHD Lite to MOV with H.264 codec-acceptable format by those editors. Doremisoft Mac MTS Converter is the ideal tool to accomplish the tasks excellently. It can fast convert AVCHD MTS/AVCHD Lite footages to the videos format that best fit for the editing software. You can never imagine how easy it is to conduct the conversion with the help of this software. Only five simple steps are required: 1. Download & launch the video converter; 2. Import the AVCHD (.mts)/AVCHD Lite video files into the program; 3. Set H.264 MOV as the output format; 4. Edit the video files optionally; 5. Start the conversion. After the conversion has been done, you can transfer the converted files to the desired editors for post editing freely.

We know that Adobe Flash is the professional program to make animated video with extension name of .swf. However, SWF is not a YouTube supported file type, so it is impossible for us to directly upload SWF to YouTube.

Well, in this case, we have two ways to solve the problem. 1. If you have a video file converter on hand, you can export your animation in .avi format (since common video converter don't support .swf file), and then use the video converter to convert the .avi file into flv or mp4 and upload onto YouTube. 2. Get a professional SWF Video Converter to help you convert SWF to FLV, or get the SWF convert to MP4. Here, I mainly talk about the second way. Below is how:

Learn the 6 Most Useful Adobe Premiere Tips

Adobe Premiere is a powerful and useful video editing software for both professional and novice video editors. Dozens of great video editing features are offered. Maybe you've come to Premiere Pro from Final Cut Pro or you're a former Premiere editor looking to take advantage of the new features in CS6, in this post, I'll break done 6 most useful tips geared toward the FCP editors which will help you run the program faster and do the video editing more efficiently with the nuances and great features in Premiere Pro!

1. Change the default settings

You can save some time on video editing by changing two default settings: Scale Media to Project Size and Default Picture Length. You can go to Edit >Preferences > General to find the two settings. Scale Media to Project Size means any photo or video will be scaled down to the project size. This setting will save you a lot of time especially when you are mixing a lot of SD and HD video and photos. Default Picture Length originally is set at 150 frames or five seconds of footage. You can change it to any set mount so that you don't need to adjust every photo you import. When you finished the settings changing, hit "OK" to save.

2. Workspace shortcut

Creating workspace shortcuts will speed up your editing work. My rule of thumb is to make a shortcut for anything you use on a daily basis. Here's a general guide to customizing shortcuts in Adobe Premiere Pro that's worth a look. A few of the workspace shortcuts I use religiously: Control + U – Reset my current layout when it gets disorganized and messy Command + 1 – Audio Workspace Command + 2 – Color Correction Workspace Command + 3 – Editing Workspace

3. Keep your project more organized with "Bins"

You can click the "Folder" icon in the "Project" window to create a new folder to store video clips or other things. Store them in many different folders rather than only one so that you can find what you want more quickly. Create bins for storing separate audio, video, photo, etc. This Adobe Premiere tip will definitely makes your project more organized and can save time for editing.

4. Quick Render

Most of the effects and videos render in real time with Adobe Premiere, but to see a preview of full effects, titles and transitions, simply press "Enter" on the keyboard. This will render the project and automatically play a preview in the "Monitor" window.

5. Format Goes First

Most of the Editors have one common problem that they don't support all video formats. For example, SWF files are neither supported by Premiere, nor Vegas and FCP, so convert that video format into something suitable, such as SWF to Sony Vegas, SWF to FCP, SWF to Adobe Premiere, etc. for editing and final output.

6. Creating markers

To create a marker in a Premiere Pro sequence, use the shortcut "M". You can see your markers in the markers Panel, change their length and add comments (very useful for adding editing or producers notes). To create a marker on a clip, load the clip into the Source Window & press "M". The Marker Panel with show sequence markers if the Sequence is selected, or clip markers if the Source is selected. Selecting the Marker in the Marker Panel will take you to the marker in the clip or sequence – a big Premiere Pro timesaver!
