As @GreenDay2001 pointed out, the Flash authoring tool historically offered an import path for video, and the resource noted by @rajarajan2017 describes that older import workflow. Important context for anyone reading this years later: Adobe ended support for Flash Player at the end of 2020 and modern browsers no longer run SWF content, so migrating video to modern web formats is the recommended path (Adobe Flash Player end-of-life).

If maintaining legacy Flash output is unavoidable, choose between three approaches and watch for common pitfalls:

  • Embed short clips directly in the SWF (fast startup but greatly increases SWF size and memory use).
  • Keep video external and use a playback component or NetStream/NetConnection so the SWF stays small and seeking/progressive download works better.
  • Use a streaming server (RTMP) for live or adaptive needs.
    Typical problems are large SWFs, codec mismatches, choppy playback when frame rates differ, and poor seeking if keyframes are sparse. Refer to the Adobe Animate/Flash import documentation for authoring-specific steps ().

For current projects, convert video to web-friendly formats and use HTML5. A simple ffmpeg example for MP4 (H.264/AAC) and WebM outputs:

ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 23 -c:a aac -b:a 128k output.mp4
ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v libvpx-vp9 -b:v 1M -c:a libopus output.webm

See the HTML5 <video> element for embedding in pages (MDN <video> element) and the ffmpeg project for encoding options (ffmpeg.org).
