Why Convert MP4 to FLV?

Converting MP4 to FLV is a common task whenever a file has to work somewhere that expects the other format. MP4 is the world's most widely supported video container format. FLV is the Flash Video container that powered online video in the era of Adobe Flash Player. This converter makes the switch locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Common use cases

  • You have a MP4 file and need it in FLV format.
  • The target software or platform requires FLV but your file is in MP4.
  • Typical use of FLV: Rescuing old Flash-era videos so they play on modern devices.
  • You want to reduce file size or improve compatibility without using desktop software.
Keep in mind: Flash was discontinued in 2020 and no browser plays FLV any more. Convert to MP4 or WebM for everyday use.

FLV (Flash Video)
