When you insert the flash file, you have option of adding a skin or not.
I believe you can just choose not to add a skin.
Also, inserting flash file SWF will not have a controller.

Hi Mia,
It would be helpful to know what frame size you wish to encode to and the length of the program in determining the best encode settings.
For instance, for 16:9 video, you might want 640x360, or for higher quality, 1280x720 (full 720p HD | | | | |
