Cannot convert/save to FLV

Hi,

I just installed windows version 0.9.9 and in the Convert/Save options, there's FLV encapsulation.

I try to save as FLV, with h264 video and mp4/AAC audio.

However the operation dies and the console complains about flv muxing.

[00000425] main mux error: no sout mux module matched "flv"
[00000423] stream_out_standard stream out error: no suitable sout mux module for
`file/flv://C:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\My Videos\test1.flv'

Use MP4 if you want to have H.264 video and AAC audio.

Ok thanks. but what if I want to do FLV, what combination should I use? Is flv container supported in any way, since it is an option for convert?

Also with the latest windows 0.9.9 if I try h264 with any container type (including MP4), vlc crashes.

You really dont need flv container to play files with a flash player. With flash-player 9 and above you can use mp4-container and x264 (video) / faac (audio) input. But you have to detour with avi file in the first step and followed by this you can use other mp4-muxer like mp4box to create a very high-compressed AND flash-player useable video. Use your favourite search engine to looking for many sript samples ...

FLV1 and MP3 are the options if you want to output FLV files.
