Cannot convert/save to FLV

Postby rkleemann » 11 May 2009 22:14

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 ...
scarcely you do it right it works ...

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