I created a video strip poker game in Flash. I'd like to now improve on it.

The video quality isn't as good as it should be. The video starts as a .wmv file then I convert it to .swf and load it as a Flash movie in the game. I used .swf instead of .flv because it has to jump around to various frames based on the circumstances of the game (didn't know how to do that with a .flv). Anyway, the video seems to lose a lot of quality when converting from .wmv to .swf, any advice? Should I change the coding and use .flv?

You should use flv and then use cuepoints to navigate precisely where you want in the flv. In the flash video encoder, open the advanced settings before converting and you'll access many options one being the ability to set cuepoints that you'll use with code in your project.
