Understand convertion of files

Hi. Sense my company have desided to try the FMS (I set it up the other day), I have been reading on formats, bitrates and those kind of things today. I thought I understood things until I seen this thing that confused my world. A trailer of a move that was in 480p but FLV format (youtube)? Now they way I understood it was that 480p is supposte to be HD. A FLV file is not converted with the H264 Codec (wich is HD?), so how come it still counts as a 480p? It should be a F4V or MP4 right?

Anybody care to explain this confusion of mine?

I would like to ask more about this topic but I will go with this for now. I will add maby one or two questions later.

Thanks

    Hi Dejan,

    A High Defintion Video contains higher resolution. it can even be of flv content. Need not be H264 always. You can even have vp6 video format in flv with higher resolution and call it as HD. 480 doesnot seem to be a HD content.
