Can you be a bit more specific in what you are looking for, YouTube streams all their video through a flash viewer.
If you are asking how to make it into flash so you can upload to YouTube, there is no need, you can upload most standard video files and Google handles the viewing. The stuff I have uploaded is quicktime files and google works great converting.

If you want to make it into flash LIKE youtube, you will have to find Adobe Flash Video Encoder somewhere. That turns videos into .swf files. If you have Adobe Flash CS3 as well, you can add the menus and bars to give the user control of the video.

Yeah, that's what I mean. Embedding a video from youtube onto my own flash site. Sorry for the confusion.

I think he means how you embed it in a Flash document which could be slightly more difficult. If he meant how to embed it in HTML then this thread would have been closed ages ago.

You can't. At least not without downloading the flv file and using your own player.

Jiwon's player is good enough for most of us basic users :p

In case you are looking for embedding youtube videos in your site ....
I went to the main page, selected a video clip.
On the right side of the clip are "url", "taga" and "embed".
Select the Code in the "Embed" field and copy and paste it in an html code like that:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">
<meta name="generator" content="PSPad editor, www.pspad.com">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dQJbgEiQ4Cg"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dQJbgEiQ4Cg" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
</body>
</html>

You can test the code above by saving it as an html file & you will be able to watch that embedded clip.

If you are using another programming language, embed according to the rules there.

If this is not what you want, ignore this!

I'f i'm correct then the format the video automatically gets converted to is .flv witch is a flash file.
If you want to embed the video then just scroll down underneath the video and copy the code there.

Well, if one needs a direct link to play or download the flv file, then that would do, but if you want to EMBED a video, u need some code around it & youtube itself provides the code inside the <object> tags at "url" beside the video clip (or wherever).

If u want to embed a clip in WMV u dont just put the "naked" link like between <body> mysite.com/clip.wmv </body>, like that, whereas the code above on loading the html page has the clip exactly as u see it on youtube & ready to be played.
