You've likely been reading all the hype about Apple vs. Flash.  With that hype, it appears that there is a good deal of confusion out there when it comes to video codecs, video formats, platforms, etc....  And, even though it is my belief that leading blogs shouldn't write about things they dont understand, I completely understand the confusion (read my post -Video File Container Formats, Compression & Codecs – Oh My!)

Not only will we help to clarify (h.264, mp4, flv, swf, AAC, etc....) - but if you have any questions at all about encoding video...  you will have the opportunity to ask true experts.

The webinar is free and you can sign up here.  I hope you will join us tomorrow.
