A safe conversion: WEBM and FLV are both lossless, so this is a change of container rather than a change to the picture.

What usually goes wrong
About the WEBM. A browser screen recording is usually a WEBM with a broken duration, so players show it as zero seconds or refuse to seek. Converting it to MP4 rewrites the header and fixes the seeking.
About the FLV. If you have FLV files they are probably old downloads worth rescuing, and converting them to MP4 is the way to keep them watchable.
How to convert WEBM to FLV
- Add your WEBM file. It is read from your disk and stays there.
- Check the settings. The output format is already set to FLV.
- Press convert and the FLV file is saved back to your device.
Questions
How do I convert WEBM to FLV?
Open this page, add your WEBM file, and press convert. The file is decoded and re-encoded by your own browser and saved back to your device. Nothing is uploaded.
Is this WEBM to FLV converter free?
Yes, completely. There is no account, no sign-in, no watermark and no daily limit, because there is no server doing the work. Your own device does it.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. There is no upload endpoint. The conversion runs inside this browser tab, so your file never leaves your device. You can open your browser's network panel and watch: nothing carrying your file is sent.
Is there a file size limit?
No fixed limit. Because the work happens on your machine there is no server quota. The only ceiling is your own device's memory, which for video means very large files may be slow.
Will converting to FLV lose quality?
FLV is a lossy format, so some detail is discarded. The quality control on this page decides how much. The default is set high enough that most people cannot see the difference.
Can I convert several WEBM files at once?
Yes. Add as many as you like and they are converted one after another, then offered as a single ZIP.
