The main AVS Video to Flash program window is intuitive and easy to use. It lets the user start video to flash conversion right after the program is launched and the source file is loaded. The main program window looks like this:

After you launch the program you will need to select the source video - a video file that you would like to convert into the flash video format. To do that use the Browse... button next to the Source File Name field. When you click it the following window will be opened to let you select the source video file:

Find the file you need on your computer hard disk drive and click the Open button. You can open the files of all the most popular video formats. After the source file is loaded, you can select the output file name and folder on your computer HDD. Use the Browse... button next to the Output File Name field. The Select output file window will be opened to let you choose the target file name and location:

The output file will be saved with the selected name and the .flv file extension, as it will be converted to flash video format.

After you select the source and the target files names, you can select the video conversion profile, edit the selected profile, if necessary, add a player and create an HTML-page for your video, crop the video image and add an image as a watermark. See the appropriate sections for more detail on how to do that.

Use the Playback button to watch your loaded video and to find some exact place in case you need to select only a part of it for conversion. The video will be played in the Preview window. Use the slider to navigate through your video. The Playback button will turn into Pause to let you stop your video playback any time you need to.

You can also click the Help button to quickly open the help file and read about the functions of AVS Video to Flash and the operations with the program. The About button is use to read the release information about AVS Video to Flash.

When all preparations are done, click the Start Conversion button to begin the video to flash conversion process. You will see the conversion progress on the progress bar:

Click the preview window to turn the preview on or off.

Once the conversion process is over, the program will let you open the output file folder or, in case you selected to create a player and an HTML-page code, open the resulting page in your default web-browser.
