FLV export gone.. need alpha channel in video for Flash

Hello, I've just noticed that the option of exporting video files in FLV format has been removed from the AF CC 2014 version. This is very destructive to our workflow as we need the "alpha" channel of the flv for use in Flash.

Is there a way to restore flv export functionality?

      Szalam, media encoder doesn't  support Flv encoding in the latest version. Sure you can use an older version perhaps, but there is something else going on here. They removed the Motion editor without any form of replacement crippling the software. There is no other reasonable way for me to work with flash without the alpha channel of Flv.


      If you need to export an FLV file, then use the previous version of the application.

      See this for an explanation for the change regarding FLV and F4V and for the recommended workflow:

      removal of FLV and F4V export features from Adobe Media Encoder, After Effects, and Premiere Pro

      See this for an explanation for the change regarding H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV and for the recommend workflow:

      using Adobe Media Encoder to create H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV videos from After Effects

      If Adobe is going to remove FLV from these programs, then they should update their Captivate program to accept video formats other than FLV that support an alpha channel. The only other format currently supported is MP4 which can't have an alpha channel.

      I have the same problem. I installed back older version AE CC and when I start it i see "You can’t use this version of the application “Adobe After Effects CC.app” with this version of OS X. You have “Adobe After Effects CC.app” 12.0.".

      So how I have to make transparent video for flash when I can't lunch AE CC?

        To use After Effects CC (12.x) on Mac OS 10.9 or later, install the most recent update for that version;

        I just want to echo that I also have a need to create videos for flash applications that include transparency, and it's shortsighted to remove FLV support until there's an alternative for this.

          The previous versions of the applications are available to you. You can still use those for when you need to transcode to FLV.

          The previous versions don't work with the latest operating systems.

          If you need to export an FLV file, then you can use the previous version of After Effects (After Effects CC 12.2.1) for this specific step.

          I guess, but it makes thing unnecessary cumbersome and needlessly slows down the workflow. And what of the future, how long will those previous versions be available to me and will there be another video file format that has native alpha support built in?

            We will continue to make older versions available for a very long time. We have publicly committed to having at least five major versions available in the archives.

            There are several movie formats available that use alpha channels.
