Adobe Captivate 2 is indeed a good tool for making software simulation, but by default it does not generate the output as FLV. I will tell you here that how you can convert your project into an FLV.
It requires Macromedia Flash to be installed on the same machine where Adobe Captivate 2 is installed.
It also requires Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder (or any other software which can convert AVI into FLV)
1. Create your project in Adobe Captivate 2 (Note - Create your project only as demonstration, do not include any interactivity in it)
2. Save the project.
3. Open Macromedia Flash and create a new file with the same dimensions as in your Adobe Captivate Project.
4. select File -> Import -> Import to Stage, browse and select the CP file.
5. In the options for importing DO NOT import the playback controls and DO NOT select 'slides as movieClips'
6. Export from Flash as an AVI (File -> Export -> Export Movie)
7. Now from Macromedia Flash 8 Video Encoder or any other AVI to FLV converter, you can easily convery it into an FLV.
Note that if you wish to use this FLV in any other Adobe Captivate 2 project, then you should select 'Sorenson Spark' video codec for best results.
