Hi there,

I’m wondering if it is possible to create Flash Video on the fly. i.e. the user uploads the source video file (QuickTime, Windows Media, etc.) via an HTML form, and it is turned into an FLV which is then used by a Flash movie on the site. I don’t think it’s possible, but my customer wants to know.

Blessings,

Graham
