My quest is nearly complete. I have been searching all week, actually since last December, when I accidentally deleted my last broadcast, for software which can convert FLV files to any file that You Tube or video editor can read. The broadcast was done on my Ustream.tv account and when I was trying to replace the broadcast with a copy that I had fortunately made of the broadcast and saved to my hard drive, I found one piece of software which would broadcast the file as a new broadcast. I tried to just publish the broadcast to my Youtube account but found out my file was too big. I then thought I could cut the broadcast into three segments—awkward but doable but I could not find an editor which would read the file to cut up. I am going to have to convert the file from a FLV which is a flash-video designator to something like AVI, mpeg, mpeg 4 or what ever.
I finally found a converter which was not too silly, oh it is silly enough. The gimmick is has to force a person to register (buy) the product is this converter just converts the first 20 minutes file and the software converts very well.
I of course want to convert the complete file, that only make sense, there fore I have to register the software which is $27.00which is not a bad price—but if I am careful from here on out I won’t need to use the software. Chapman, my work partner, wants to find a super duper piece of software which will do everything especially from a video editing point of view, which would be handy but by the time do all the checking and frogging round we will have wasted a ton of time and not got anything accomplished. Anyway, here it the twenty minute version.
