How to make video sharing website like YouTube, Yahoo, Google, MySpace, iFilm, Dailymotion, Metacafe

I don't remember how many times my friends asked me how to make an awesome website. Well it is not an easy thing, but I true believe some videos will make your website brightly. I bit you have seen such video websites like YouTube, Yahoo, Google, MySpace, iFilm, Dailymotion, Metacafe, etc. But how? How to make a web inserted with a video? That is a problem.

You will never lack of videos, you can download from the website or you have many DVDs, you have wonderful movies with all formats. Yeah, don't you notice that your videos have various formats, AVI, MPEG, WMV, MOV, MP4, M4V, 3GP, RM, MPG, ASF, RMVB, MKV, DAT, OGM, ASX, MJPEG… things like this. I feel confused sometime. Now go back to the first question, we need to insert the videos into the web, not with these formats. You will never insert an AVI file in the web, because it is too big. You need to convert WMA to flash.

This article will introduce you a good way to achieve this.

Flash Video MX Pro can help you. This software can convert AVI, WMA, etc. to flash so easily. Actually it can convert almost any video formats to flash, and the Pro version can convert DVD directly. By this wonderful tool, we can generate FLV, SWF and HTML files, and the HTML file means you have made a web with videos. Ha, don't you think it magic? That is not all. It has so many wonderful functions:
