Sounds like a good candidate for a distributed computing project.

I'm sure a lot of people have fast CPUs 'because racecar' and wouldn't mind helping out converting NG content.
I know I wouldn't.

:The next step on our end is to launch our video conversion server, which will process these videos into smaller 720p and mobile formats. This will make NG video a better experience for both PC and mobile users, expect it soon! Then we just have to convert every movie in the history of NG. Or at least the good ones.

Mike this is some seriously knockout software, amazing job!
Make sure you stick up links to it all over the site so it's easy to discover for new visitors, this will be a big deal outside of Newgrounds too.

I'm not a flash artist, never done a single animation/game/else in my whole life. But I can feel why you're all so excited about this and, without apparently reason, I can sense that a big awesome project has comed to life. I always tought NG had an important role if "internet" and "web browsing" are like we know nowadays and what they'll become in the future years thanks to NEWGROUNDS. It's in the name itself that we are aware of what the purpose of this place is: to explore new grounds and expand this amazing universe called world wide web. If in the future years someone's gonna build a museum about "Internet", I require a big tank reproduction (or a real one, why not ;D ) with "newgrounds" embossed in capital letters and even a room filled with NG stuff!

Big Huge Thanks to Mike for Swivel and his support for "our" community. He should be King of the portal for at least a year!

Windows does this for a TON of software. How does NG benefit from negatively effecting your computer?

Trust me, just about everyone that downloaded the Windows version will likely have received that message, myself included. It's perfectly safe. Windows does that for ALOT of safe software.

It's literally amazing. Anyone who is not BLOWN AWAY by this if a complete fucking moron. Best thing to happen to Flash in the last 5 years. Adobe should fucking send you guys an award lol

wonderful work you guys, seriously, after years of larger software companies failing miserably, Mike and the NG team created the final solution to one of the greatest obstacles/frustrations Flash animators suffer.

thanks a million!

Mike deserves a big fucking round of applause. He created something that a multimillion dollar company like adobe couldn't. This is really going to be a big help, and I thank him for that.

Holy crap I just realized... I wonder if that movie on the front page is why Adobe decided not to provide prize copies of Flash for NATA this year...
