How to convert AVI to FLV with Riva FLV Encoder
FLV, also known as Flash Video, represents a video format very popular among Internet users, as it is the primary file type used by almost all video sharing websites, including the famous Youtube. This type of file can also be embedded in SWF files and it is commonly applied for storing video data in high quality. AVI is one of the most used media formats for storing movies and other video files on Windows-based computer. Therefore, converting AVI files to FLV format seems an easy way to upload all your favorite videos to popular websites and share them with other users.
For demonstrating the conversion process, I have chosen Riva FLV Encoder 2.0 (Freeware) by Rothenberger Global Training Solutions, mostly because it offers a quick way to transform AVI videos into FLV format, without making you go through complicated menus or open various windows to modify parameters. This tool keeps the job simple and straight to the point.
