To convert FLV to DivX, install a converter program and select the FLV file to convert. DivX is good for smaller file sizes, but quality is lost during compression. FLV is used for Flash videos on websites like YouTube and Google Video.
To convert FLV to DivX, a computer user needs to install the appropriate converter software and use it to perform the conversion process on the FLV file. You can then play DivX movies on your computer or another device, such as a DivX compatible DVD player. DivX works well for converting video to a format that takes up less space and is easier to share. It has its drawbacks, however, because some of the original quality is lost when compressing the video.
FLV, or Flash Video, refers to a specific video file type used by Adobe Flash Player®. Flash movies can be transferred over the Internet so that viewers can access them from a website or embed the videos in their own web page or personal profile on a social networking site. Popular examples of FLV files on the Internet include videos on YouTube® and those on Google Video®.
DivX products are created by DivX Inc.®, including the popular DivX Codec. This software puts videos in DivX format by compressing larger video segments into smaller sized segments. Its popularity grows from its ability to still maintain decently high quality despite the video compression process, which usually results in a loss of quality. The DivX codec still produces what is known as lossy compression, which means that it has to sacrifice some of the original quality to create smaller file sizes. The program tries to strike a balance between how much quality is lost and how much space the file takes up.
When a user needs to convert FLV to DivX, all he needs is a converter program that can convert FLV to DivX. Several freeware programs are available for download online. The user first installs the program on his computer and runs it. Once opened, he chooses the file he wants to convert and changes the settings, for example cropping the video if he only wants a part and not the whole file.
Later, the user chooses DivX as the output format for the file and selects the FLV file as the file to convert. After verifying that he is converting the correct FLV file to DivX format, he tells the program to start the conversion. The program will then convert FLV to DivX and you can transfer it to a DivX compatible device or save the file for later use.
