Here are some recent blog posts related to SWiSH Video3 and video conversion:

Encoding comparisons
Users often ask about the difference between Flash Video versions. The aim of this article is to compare Sorenson (’MX Video’), VP62 (’Flash8') and H264 encodings. H264 is now available with the new release of VideoHQ for SWiSH Video3.

Compression and file sizes
When it comes to the comparison between compression and file sizes, sometimes it’s like …well…peas and carrots. There have been forum posts from confused users with assumptions on compression and file sizes and I think it is time to shed some light on the topic. The easiest way to compare videos is often to take file sizes as references, however, this can some times be misleading.

Video3 to Sync Audio
Using Events in SWiSH Video3 is no longer limited to video. The latest release of SWiSH Video v3.5 now supports importing MP3 audio files. The video produced will contain a waveform animation, but it can also be used to easily synchronize the audio with animation in your SWiSH Max2 or SWiSH miniMax2 files.

Scrolling Panorama Photos
Many modern digital cameras come with software that allows you to “stitch” multiple photos together. This can be used to create a spectacular panoramic image. With the addition of a scroll bar, you can add some intrigue to your website by allowing a user to scroll the panorama within a 4:3 aspect ratio window.

A combo of links
The Combo_silver component and the getURL() script command can be used together to provide a convenient and space effective way of presenting a list of links to other websites.
