How to convert avi to flm file

It seems you will need to use the original software for reliably converting Audio Video Interleave Files directly to Adobe Premiere Filmstrip (.avi to .flm conversion), which itself is fairly simple.

Use Adobe Premiere Pro, as it appears to be the only software, which allows users to import AVI videos and export them in FLM format.

Understanding AVI and FLM file formats

AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a multimedia container format developed by Microsoft. It stores both audio and video data in a file that allows synchronous audio-with-video playback. AVI files are widely used for storing movies and video clips due to their compatibility with various media players and editing software.

FLM files are project files used by Adobe Animate (formerly known as Macromedia Flash) and other animation software. These files store information about animation frames, layers, and effects, but do not contain actual video or audio streams. Instead, they serve as editable project files for animation workflows.

Can you convert AVI to FLM?

Direct conversion from AVI to FLM is not possible because AVI is a video format, while FLM is a project file for animation software. However, you can import AVI video into animation software that supports video layers, and then save the project as an FLM file. This process essentially embeds the video within an animation project for further editing.

How to import AVI into an FLM project

  1. Open Adobe Animate (or compatible animation software).
  2. Go to File → Import → Import Video.
  3. Select your AVI file and follow the prompts to embed or link the video in your project.
  4. Once imported, go to File → Save As and choose the FLM format to save your project.

Recommended software for AVI to FLM workflow

  • Adobe Animate: The industry standard for creating and editing FLM files. It supports video import and project management.
  • Macromedia Flash (legacy): Older versions also support FLM files and video import.

Tips for a smooth conversion process

  • Ensure your AVI file uses a codec supported by your animation software.
  • Large AVI files may slow down project performance; consider trimming or compressing before import.
  • FLM files are not meant for video playback but for animation editing. Export your final animation as a video format if needed.
