Great job!

BRO. I have been dying for a program like this for years. Not even After Effects can pull this off as well as Swivel can. I'm doing a write-up on it tomorrow, will patch you in.

Any hope on getting a version that does alpha channel? Then it would be PERFECT.

In an idealistic world yeah but, inevitably users will continue to upload their creations to a variety of content sharing sites to increase their exposure

and ultimately exposure is a good thing for a starving artist

Just exported a video in 1440p. GOD THAT'S SO MANY P.

I think that if it doesn't automatically do that, then you can choose "manual recording" or something. I don't know, so far alpha channel has worked for me.

Oh my fuck you're right. Now I need to get experimenting!

Definitely in pair with swf quality. Hopefully Mike will get some of these issues sorted out and also add some more video output formats (f4v, mkv, 3gp)
Until then, I'm sticking with my original swf converter.

Great job, Mike

Hey bro, welcome to video encoding. This thing does an amazing job converting at the pace it does.

NG cares about its users and it will pay off in the long run.

Mike is hot, because he's red and stuff! ^___________^

E=MC2? Smart.
The lightbulb? Smart.
Theory of relativity? Smart.
Swivel converter? FUCKING. GENIUS.

Pretty damn awesome, now I can actually watch stuff when I'm at work easily.

Very nice.

This is really cool, but I would of course strongly encourage you to make it open source software. :)

I'll always upload both. Depends on what you prefer, really.

The video upload feature remains invite-only at the moment so PM me for access and the MP4 field will appear as a secondary option under your project details.

If you're going to keep it invite-only for now, maybe you could put a link on the Submit Movie page to request MP4 access? just an idea.

This is awesome news.
