FLASH vx FLIX

BIGROCK: Abode Flash. Flix is not Flash. Flix lets you encode video to a FLV Flash Video Container using the On2 VP6 codec (same company that makes FLIX). FLIX Regular has zero Flash programming capability. FLIX comes with a precompiled Flash container for the FLV files that allow them to played only. Most people will see little if any benefit in spending ten times as much for the FLIX Pro version as opposed to FLIX regular in my opinion. The codec in FLIX is not any better than the one in Adobe Flash, they are in fact identical. FLIX Pro as uses the exact same codec as well but gives some additional encoding options. What is different is the programmatic control the Flash developer can take against that video on a real Flash Stage (a Stage is a Flash workspace).

Look at this way, Flash is not a video encoder. Flash FLV files are just containers for encoded data. And Flash provides two third party codecs to encode that data in the FLV container: On2 Vp6, and Sorensen Spark. They could also add another codec in the future if they wanted. Personally I would prefer they use H.264 as it is standard unlike On2 Vp6 which must be licensed. The problem for them is they would have to release a new version of the Flash Player to add any new codecs on the end-user side.
