I downloaded some flv videos. I want a free solution to be able to convert them to mpeg or avi or wmv so i can watch them on my axim and my computer without additional software except a convertor.

Can somebody help me, every program is either a trial or it doesnt work with this .flv format.

Looks like that link goes in my favorites. The program works great, except i see a dos (command prompt) window while converting, but it works, and its FREE!

The other site can get the flvs from google video and youttube! Kewl, b/c i tried opening pages in frontpage and sifitng through code, and that takes forever!

You can try Moyea Flash to Video Converter, I think it can meet for you.

Ares Tube can do all this with 1 step:

Use super it can convert almost anything.

I got that now. It works a lot better than the other flv conveter, but takes a little longer.

Yep, SUPER is truly EXCELLENT.

If the .flv file is from YouTube or something like that, or its on the internet, you can use this online service(free), www.vixy.net

There is a new Websevice at viddownloader.com. You just need to copy and paste the Youtube (or other Flasbase video site). Few seconds later an .avi (DivX) will be available for download. All in 1 step.
The site is pretty busy now but keep trying!
Alternative solution is with Vixi, which provides more output options as I mentioned HERE!

As for me best tool for convering FLV to MPG is Flash To Video Encoder.

good luck, guys

Hi/ For me the best converter is Flash To Video Encoder PRO
i like that it can not only convert, also it can add watermarks....

KeepVid looks like it will be an excellent solution to finding the .flv files to download! Until now I had to find the video I wanted, and then after watching it, search through my temporary internet files until I found it again, and copy it to my desktop, potentially rename it from a "file" into an flv, then test watch it, and if it was the wrong one, repeat until I found the right one. Now there will be 2 steps: (1) Download video. (2) Convert with SUPER. DONE!

(UPDATE: I found out that most .flv files from Youtube can be played "as is" as long as you have the FLV codec for TCPMP. Now conversion is necessary only about 30% of the time, because I can watch most videos with no convesion at all thanks to this codec.)
