Thanks for pointing that software out to me. It got the job done halfway, enough for me to use the Stoik converter to get it into Adobe Premiere without a Divx watermark (most free converters convert to Divx AVI it seems).

What I ended up doing was using the Orbit downloader freeware to capture streaming media in its native flash file, then using the Pazera software you suggested to get it to AVI (which flavor or codec I'm not sure, but it wasnt' Divx at least), then using Stoik video converter to transfer that into DV avi so I could get it into premiere.

I hate having to convert it so many times, but you gotta do what you gotta do when you don't know any other ways.

Before, I tried using Super c (copyright symbol) converter, but all I got were error messages and you kind of need to know a lot to use it. Although I was pretty sure of the codecs, you also need to know the converter engines that super c uses behind the scenes.

I do have the full version of Adobe Flash CS3, which I've never installed or used before. Does anyone know if Flash will convert a Flash file to DV AVI?
