FLV is a relic of the Flash era: the format YouTube grew up on, stranded when Flash died. The Flash Video container, typically holding old H.263, VP6 or early H.264 streams.

- Type

- Typical size
- small files with dial-up-era expectations about quality

- Until HTML5 took over, every YouTube video you watched played inside an FLV wrapper.
What this FLV converter flips
Two directions, one page. Outbound: move FLV into MP4, WEBM or another container when FLV proves weak at playing anywhere at all since Flash was switched off in 2020: or pull just the audio out as MP3 or WAV. Inbound: re-wrap other footage as FLV when a tool demands it.
