How to convert flv video to 3gp video?

Question

How to convert .flv video format to .3gp for use on an Android device using a desktop computer?

Answer 1

Download and install FFmpeg. The following command will encode to h.264 video with the baseline profile, as demanded by the Android media player.

To change the quality, change the crf parameter. Lower means better, and sane values are from 19 to 25 or more.

As audio, AAC is used with a bitrate of 192 kBit/s.

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -profile:v baseline -crf 23 -c:a libfaac -b:a 192k out.3gp
