I wonder if it is possible to convert video's to a better quallity FLV format. The standard 320 x 240 24 bits 30 fps is sometimes not good enough. I tried to put the compression qquality set on level 2. But it can better! But how? I don not want to convert to the 640 x 480 format.

If you don't want to increase the resolution, how do you expect the quality to improve? VS only has the 3 Levels of compression, Level-0, Level-1, and Level-2. However you do have a long list of frame sizes if you use the Share>Video File>Custom approach. In the Save as Type box, press the drop-down menu and choose Flash Files (*.flv). Now press Options, and on the General tab you will be able to select a frame size, ranging from 40 x 30 to 800 x600.
If you're planning on uploading to YouTube or a like video hosting website, then I would recommend the 640 x 480 frame size. Larger will not gain you much in quality, but will increase the file size. Smaller will suffer quality loss when it is recoded by the hosting service.

Thanks, I see I have to change to 640 x 480 to get a better quality.
