How to convert ogv to flv on Linux (Ubuntu)

When i started the youtube thing i faced a problem because sometimes youtube is not able to process the .ogv properly.

I installed a tool called ffmpeg to help me convert the vids to flv.

Link to ffmpeg website

How to use it? Easy.


ffmpeg -i problematic.ogv cool.flv

Of course there are a few hundred (if not more) switch you can use. But this was enough for me to start with.

Happy coding!
