[x264-devel] *.flv format to some format that is accepted by encoder?

[#ARIJIT BISWAS#]

Dear all!

I’m a newbie in video processing.

I downloaded some files from YouTube in *.flv format. And I want to do some quick experiments with the x264 encoder.

Does anyone know how to convert the *flv format into some format that could be an input to the encoder?
The encoder help says:
"Infile can be raw (in which case resolution is required),
  or YUV4MPEG (*.y4m),
  or Avisynth if compiled with support (yes).
  or libav* formats if compiled with lavf support (no) or ffms support (no).
  or any file that can be rendered in DirectShow."

So, does anyone know how to convert *.flv format into any of the above input formats?

Best Regards,
~Arijit
