Converting FLVs to playable video

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

Downloading FLV videos can be a nuisance, as there are few regular players that they work on.

In Linux, there are various ways to convery FLV files to other formats. I’m hoping to build up a collection of commands and comment on the quality of the result.

Hopefully others will find it useful.

FFMpeg

ffmpeg -i video.flv -ab 56 -ar 22050 -b 500 -s 320x240 test.mpg
ffmpeg -i video.flv -ab 128 -ar 22050 song.mp3

If you know any more drop me a line…
