MOV from Apple's QuickTime ecosystem uses modern codecs like H.264 and HEVC within a sophisticated atom-based container. FLV (Flash Video) was the dominant web video format from 2005 to 2015, used by YouTube, Twitch, and millions of Flash-embedded websites. FLV wraps Sorenson Spark (H.263), VP6, or H.264 video with MP3, AAC, or Speex audio inside Adobe's proprietary container.
Despite Flash Player reaching end-of-life in December 2020, FLV remains relevant for legacy content management systems, streaming servers running older versions of Adobe Media Server or Wowza, and archival workflows that require FLV format. Some RTMP-based live streaming setups still accept FLV input for ingest.
Converting MOV to FLV is also needed when working with Flash-based educational platforms and interactive training systems that have not been migrated to HTML5.
FFmpeg remuxes or transcodes MOV content into the FLV container. When the source MOV contains H.264 video and AAC audio, these can be directly placed into FLV without re-encoding since FLV supports both codecs. HEVC must be transcoded to H.264 as FLV has no HEVC support. Audio must be AAC, MP3, or Speex — other codecs are transcoded. FLV uses a simple tag-based structure with script, audio, and video tags marked by timestamps.
When H.264 and AAC streams are copied from MOV to FLV, quality is preserved exactly. HEVC-to-H.264 transcoding introduces a single generation of re-encoding. FLV supports up to 1080p resolution but lacks support for HDR, 4K, and modern metadata — these features are lost during conversion.
