transcoding to FLV
 

What software are you guys using? I cant seem to find a bulk converter that will leave the framerate, bitrate and resolution alone, everybody seems to want to take high def video and turn it into iphone quality.

Give me a shout if you would like to outsource these jobs.
Its what we do :)

Its not a big enough project to outsource right now, and the way its looking I am going to be doing this alot, I watch the transcode preview and write descriptions at the same time.

Adobe Flash Video Encoder or ffmpeg - on both you can set resolution, fps, bitrate

If you want to retain some quality avoid FFmpeg, or any software (like Moyea) based on it. FFmpeg only supports a very old FLV codec (called Sorenson Spark). You get much better quality, with smaller file size, by using the FLV VP6 codec.

The encoder in Adobe Flash 8 Professional and above comes with the VP6 encoder, or you can purchase a stand-alone one from On2. If you want precise control you have to get the Pro version, but there are settings in the cheapo Standard version that allow more-or-less pass-through bitrate quality, framerate, and sizing.

Purrrhaps this will help:
