When Flash first incorporated video in version 6, they chose the “Spark” Sorenson 3 codec. A good choice, that was the best encoding quality at that time. In the following years, several companies developed encoding algorithms that were clearly higher quality.
Flash 8 then added the On2 VP6 codec, which again delivered higher quality at lower bandwidth.
Because of so many viewers had the Flash plugin, a couple years ago web video encoders found they could encode video into Flash rather than the triplicate of the past (Windows Media, Real, Quicktime).
But with the release of the H.264 standard there was still one …

I have not tried this… post …
This seems like a popular question lately, here is a likely culprit:
In Compressor 2.0, all Apple’s supplied presets seem to have Field Dominance set to "Top First" (aka "Upper Field First"), as you can see here. I went through a few and they were all set this way.

Since DV camcorders capture video lower field first, FCP capture presets and sequence presets are lower field first, as they should be, so interlaced fields proceed in order. However, when encoding video with Compressor, the field order is reversed, leading to very unpleasant, …
