An FLV converter...

[Rinöa]

So I wanted to make a DVD of all these video files I downloaded from Youtube. At the time I saved them as FLV. But the DVD maker (Intervideo WinDVD) doesn't support FLVs. I wondered if their was a way to conver the files to anything else, or if there was another DVD maker. I do not want to redownload these files, as I have a 56k connection and it would take me hours to find them all again. Please recommend anything free, or at least a trial version with no time limit. Thanks for any help.

Does no one care?

Apparently the Riva FLV Encoder can not only turn AVI, MPEG, Quicktime, and WMV files into FLV, but also do the reverse. I haven't tried it yet, but it's worth a shot. You can also try the Total Video Converter.

Hope that helps.

Riva is the the best of the rest, unfortunately. I tried it a while ago after searching for hours upon hours for a decent one that doesn't mess up the audio/video sync, and it appears all of them use ffmpeg, and thus, yield the same results.
Riva will work for some flvs, but if you have one with a still picture, it will interpret it as a single frame for as long as the picture remains on screen. Thus shortening the video and messing up the sync.

All except <a href="http://www.moyea.com/">Moyea Flash 2 Video Converter</a>. It actually uses a live capture of the video rather than processing the raw data directly, so it worked perfectly. The only drawback is that it leaves a nasty watermark in the middle of the video until you pay for it. :{

Suffice to say I didn't want the video <i>that</i> badly.
