Introduction
 In
our "Extreme Guide to Video Capture & Editing",
we covered just about everything from capture and editing to encoding and CD
authoring. The one thing we did not cover, however, is web publishing.
There is a reason for this. Videos are quite large and if your viewers do not
have a broadband connection, it can be rather frustrating for then having to
wait for the videos to load. We have not been able to find a suitable
application that would easily allow you to publish your videos...until now
that is!
We have found a company who offers a unique, yet powerful software tool that
will allow users of all levels to easily publish their videos on the web. Flix
Pro by Wildform, uses flash as the output method for your video files. What
does this mean? Smaller files and use of the most popular media format on the
web! If the thought of turning your video files to flash sounds enticing, wait
till you have a look at some of its other one of a kind features such as the
ability to turn your videos into vector-based animations!
