Hi all
How to I convert a FLV video to MP4 (for iPod and PSP). I downloaded
flv2mpeg4 from getdeb.net, but I doesn't support audio.

Try transcode or tovid. Tovid is a fairly extensive suite of programs
that depend on having things like mencoder, transcode, dvdauthor,
mpeg2enc, and ffmpeg to do the magic, mostly with shell scripts and a
bit of Python. Tovid can be found in the repositories (tovid-0.31
probably) but it's also at tovid.sourceforge.net, and it's best to get
the stuff direct from the SVN so you have the most up to date version.
ffmpeg probably could do it natively but I prefer using tovid because
it makes life easier, and I don't have to remember all the fancy
ffmpeg options (or transcodes, or mencoder either) from one run to the
next.
Tovid probably could do it as 'tovid -quality 10 -in file.flv -out
file.mp4' but I haven't tried it to make mp4s out of flvs. I have
successfully made a few nice dvd's out of a few flv files using the
tool.

If you don't mind cheating and using wine, then you could use Mediacoder
from Sourceforge, which provides a nice GUI to FFMPEG and a few other
transcoders. It's tested to work with the latest version of Wine and in
my experience, it performs faster using Wine than XP.

Hi David
thank you
I seems to me Tovid is only for disc authoring (disc readable by most
DVD players). Not a general purpose transcoder.
== from Tovid wiki ==
Tovid is a collection of GPL video disc authoring tools; it can help you
create your own DVDs, VCDs, and SVCDs for playback on your home DVD player.
How are the options with transcode?
