| Over the past
few months, Wildform has continually updated their
flagship video-to-swf program Flix. Because each of us
have different needs when using the program, Flix comes
in three flavors to appeal to each need. For seasoned
video editors, you have Flix Pro (now at version 3.1). For casual and
moderate users, you have Flix SE and Flix Lite. Flix Pro
3.1 is targeted
more toward the high-end user who is interested in
tweaking all aspects of the output media file. Just a
few of Flix Pro 3.1's numerous features include:
-
The
classic, easy-to-use interface.

Ability to
import from Windows Media, QuickTime, AVI, MPEG, and more.
