Convert WEBM to FLV – Make Modern Videos Compatible with Legacy Systems

Converting WEBM to FLV is a practical solution when you need your videos to run on older systems or Flash-based players. WEBM is a modern, open-source format ideal for HTML5 and modern browsers, while FLV (Flash Video) was once the standard for online streaming on legacy platforms. If you're working with older websites or systems that still rely on Flash, Evano’s WEBM to FLV converter offers a simple, fast, and secure way to convert files directly in your browser.

🎯 What is WEBM and FLV?

What is a WEBM File?

WEBM is a modern video format developed by Google, designed for high-quality video compression and fast playback on the web. It’s commonly used in HTML5 video tags and supported by all major browsers.

What is an FLV File?

FLV (Flash Video) is a container format developed by Adobe for streaming video content over the internet. Though Flash support has officially ended, FLV is still used in some legacy systems and internal platforms.

🔎 Why Convert WEBM to FLV?

• Legacy Platform Support: FLV is required by many older LMS, CMS, or intranet systems that still depend on Flash-based players.
• Faster Buffering on Older Networks: FLV’s compact structure makes it ideal for older environments with slower internet connections.
• Embedded Playback: FLV integrates well with older Flash-based websites or video templates.
