Using Encoder

Feb 10, 2011

I have not used Video encoder in any of my projects. Am I missing something great?

Can you give me some tips on where to use video encoder?

Hi Poornima,

Video Encoder lets you change your video to FLV (which is on of the formats that you can use in Articulate Presenter, Engage, or Quizmaker). So a lot of folks use it just to change the format of their movie, if their original file is in a non-supported format.

However, there are also some other cool things you can do with it too, like trimming the video, cropping it to a different size, adjusting volume/brightness/contrast, and adding a logo.

Also, check out this creative use of the tool, where David shows how to create circular movies:
