Hi,

Currently I'm using mencoder(ffmpeg) to generate a compatible FLV video.
Is there any command to use XVID to encode to FLV compatible video?

Can this be implement to the XVID profile?

Thanks

FLV uses Sorrenson Spark (H.263 based as I understand it) or VP6 video. XviD is MPEG-4 Part 2, so the answer is no.

If you want better quality flv files than ffmpeg (ffmpeg uses Spark) then you need to use something that can encode with VP6.

Sorry for the confusion. I'm referring to FLV (version 7) which is a modifed version of MPEG-4 Simple profile.

Thanks
