I’d like to take a moment to draw special attention to an application that I’ve used extensively and found very useful, both in the past and presently.

For those of you working with the Flash Platform, you’re probably quite familiar by now with the FLV file format. At my company, we deploy a large majority of our video content in this format because of it’s high compression and support for embedded cuepoints.

Generally we create our FLVs and fine tune metadata as a project demands. In the past, anytime a change was made to the project that required editing video, we’d have to go through the process of cutting our source media and exporting to FLV all over again. Then I discovered Rich FLV.

Rich FLV allows you to open and play FLV files, modify in and out points, and edit cuepoints and other metadata. You can then export your modified FLV in a matter of seconds, without having to rebuild the entire file.

This app has saved me hours of time and hopefully it will do the same for you.

You can find the latest version of Rich FLV here.

And then there’s this…
