What types of AVI files are suitable for conversion to SWF files by the Producer ?
Currently, the SWF Producer performs temporal compression of the AVI file by comparing each frame with its previous frame and storing the difference between them. Because the algorithm works on a lossless basis, a very slight difference between pixels in each frame will cause the Producer to save data from each frame and render the temporal compression algorithm ineffective. What this means is that for an AVI to be effectively converted to a Flash file with maximal compression, your AVI has to satisfy certain characteristics.
