What Format of Videos Do You Accept?

Full Sceen Application Formats

For the longer broadcasts on our full screen video platform we accept already developed DVD's or .avi files on disk.  We prefer windows media video files at the highest level of quality but we do accept the other formats mentioned.   If you're sending us a production of yours by mail, please inform us by e-mail so we can look for it.

Shorter Videos For Our Compressed Library

For your personal shorter videos that you already have compressed using windows or quicktime compression, go ahead and upload it as is.   We will take care of it.

You can only upload .flv files in our compressed library upload section.   If you are using another FLV encoder other than the Riva FLV encoder, please read up on the specifics. Although it is a safe bet that any .FLV encoder will accept AVI files and Quicktime. After encoding your video using the Riva FLV encoder, if you do not like the quality you have options. Go here to learn about your options. Assuming you are using the RIva FLV encoder these are the file types that you can encode to the flv format..
