Talk about MP4 with H.264 and FLV encoded by Flash 8 with alpha

With the release of Flash Video MX SDK V2 version 2.0.3.1, Moyea is proud of its support of H.264 and Flash 8 with alpha video codec technology. In its newsletter, Moyea highlights the new version's two added functions, which support to generate the MP4 with H.264 and FLV encoded by Flash 8 with alpha, both of the two video formats can be supported by the latest Flash Player 9. What are they? Why these two functions are so good that worth of recommendation?

Firstly, I am willing to show the details of these two below:

H.264

1. What is H.264?

H.264 is the next-generation video compression technology in the MPEG-4 standard, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10. H.264 can match the best possible MPEG-2 quality at up to half the data rate. The MP4 features H.264 can deliver stunning quality at remarkably low data rates. This amazing technology gives you excellent results across a broad range of bandwidths. That is to say, by adding the function of generating the MP4 with H.264, you can enjoy the better MP4 video quality which is supported by the latest Flash Player 9 though this Flash Video converter command-line.

2. The advantages of H.264 compared by the previous standards MPEG-2 Traditionally, HD MPEG-2 content at 1920x1080 runs at 12-20 Mbps, while H.264 can deliver 1920x1080 at 7-8 Mbps with better quality. Apart from that, H.264 provides DVD quality at about half the data rate of MPEG-2. Because of this efficiency, H.264, an ISO standard, stands to be the likely successor to MPEG-2 in the professional media industry.

Now the MP4 video in Flash Video MX SDK version 2.0.3.1 which encoded by H.264 can also be supported by Flash Player 9, which is the latest Flash player today. Since this Flash video encoder server can generate this two video formats- MP4, which can be supported by the latest Flash Player 9, Moyea is surely willing to highlight these two to our customers to enjoy them.

Flash 8 with alpha

1. What is Flash 8 with alpha?

Flash 8 with alpha is also a kind of video codec and its function can be the same with On2 VP6. The FLV encoded by this video codec will have the alpha channel. This alpha channel can help you to realize the function of picture-in-picture.

2. The advantages of the video codec Flash 8 with alpha

By using this video codec Flash 8 with alpha, you will no longer get the less than satisfactory results: any Flash "alpha" video had to be hacked together—with less than satisfactory results. This codec will allow you to convert the Flash "alpha" video to a Flash Video (FLV) file that has an alpha channel, and that's it—any objects or animations will show through in the background.

The Flash video MX SDK V2 is such a command line which can convert the video to Flash on server, which can be said a video to Flash console. By adding these two new functions, this Flash video encoder server has been greatly improved.

If you are seeking for such a server for your websites or clients, this article is just for you. BTW: Want to experience the two amazing functions, just visit http://www.video-to-flash.com/video_to_flash/
