Word on the net is that Adobe Labs is releasing a FLV2 to MP3 converter. I have
heard this for a month now. Anyone has an idea when its being released? We have
a burning project and really convert those FLV's to MP3's so they can be
downloaded by the user (we record audio with FMS2). Do you have another
solution for the convertion? I have been looking all over the Net and this
issue is driving me mad, especially since our client is sitting on our back.

thanks in advance and greetings

Chris

There's nothing else available at the moment in terms of a server side solution.

Although there is supposed to be an FLV2MP3 application released soon on Adobe
labs, my understanding is that it will be a beta product and won't be licensed
for commercial deployment. I guess we'll see how it plays out.

Hm, I believe you because I can't seem to find a working solution across the
net, but I see www.podomatic.com and www.audioblog.com. They use FMS to record
the audio and offer it as MP3 download immediatly. So there must be a way.
Maybe via another format? FLV to SWF to Mp3?

Just because there are sites that suppor the functionality doesn't mean there's
a publicly available solution.

I would guess (and I"m just guessing here) that if the sites you mentioned are
using FCS/FMS to handle the recording, they have also made their own deals with
Nellymoser for the codec and developed their own server application to handle
the conversion. Perhaps you might try contacting them to see if they'll give
you some insight as to how it was achieved.

If you do get in touch with them, you might ask them what the magic word is to
get the Nellymoser people to answer an email.
