#AVI to FLI ?
3 messages in this thread
I am new to all this… I have a Video Blaster Card, Video for windows and
Animator. Can anyone guide me towards the process involved in capturing video
to fli files. With all these manuals I can only figure out bits and pieces. Can
it be done? If so how. I can convert "fli" to video for windows, but not
visa-vera. Any advice is most welcome.
Thanks …. Gary
Gary,
I like your question! Let me add to it: Is there/will there be an AVI or
AVS to .flc converter? (w/ all the every nth frame, etc. controls, of course!)
Seriously though, we've setup/sold/trained a ton of Video for Windows, a fair
number to our good friends at Microsoft. While picture quality is still an
issue, I'm sure it will improve with latter versions, so,
it might be time for a new entry under Aniconv?!

First, capture in the usual way to an .avi file. Then use VidEdit's
File/Extract menu choice. In the resulting dialog box, use the list box at the
lower left corner to select DIB Sequence as the file type. Enter a base
filename.
In Animator Pro, use POCO/Numpics menu to read in the numbered file sequence.
Version 1.3 of APro will read the .bmp files directly; earlier versions require
you to convert to something APro can digest.
I have uploaded a file, vidani.zip, to lib 6 of the Multimedia forum, that
explains this in greater detail. My book, PC Video Madness, goes into still
greater details on this process.
