Animating on Video (Animate CC 2015)

Hello.

I've been trying to animate a .MOV video I recorded on my iPhone. Couldn't find a .MOV to .FLV converter anywhere.

Then with Adobe Media Encoder I converted it to H.264. It opened, but after I animated on it, it didn't let me export.

is there any way to export H.264 file videos on Adobe Animate? And if not, is there any way to convert .MOV files to .FLV?

Thanks.

If your goal is to have an animation on top of the original video you could export like you are doing now, to MOV, and take that file and the original video into Premiere or After Effects, to put them together and export to H.264.

When i try to Publish or Export:

WARNING: This movie uses features that are not supported in the Flash Player 21 player

Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:WARNING: H.264 video will not be published.

When I try to embed video H.264 to timeline it says it cannot be exported. I've seen other Youtubers use FLV files, but i don't know how to convert an MOV file to an FLV.

Thanks.

Did you read my reply? What is your overall goal?

If you do have a reason to use Animate to combine the original video with your animation layer, you could install Flash Professional CS6, that comes with an old version of Adobe Media Encoder, which can make FLV files. But the results are not likely to be as good quality as you would get by combining your original video with the exported animation layer.

you can convert to flv using an older ame (that comes with flash cs6).
