Overview

A set of seripts to covert any video to FLV format. Useful for embedding into a webpage with http://flowplayer.org/. I get very high quality with the below settings. The files are attached to this topic. No need to copy and paste.

if [ -e $1.flv ]; then.
echo *****SKIPPING $1******
 exit
fi
