Sharing something with friends or anyone through network (LAN or WAN) is really a great thing. And one of the best thing to share is music.

Never say that you don’t have any idea how to share your music no.. no.. no.., wake up! Remember that we live in the world of free and open source software, we have many choices and the most important it’s free. What? You’re still using that fool proprietary thing, oh.. come on.

I wanted to upload some of the screen casts to Youtube. They don’t accept video files in Ogg Theora format at Youtube. I had to convert Ogg Theora file into Flash Video format to upload it to Youtube. I did some research on audio and video converters. FFmpeg was the solution to my problem. FFmpeg is a command line tool to convert one video file format to another.I used the below command to convert Ogg Theora file to .flv format.

ffmpeg -i in.ogg -b 384000 -s 640×480 -pass 1 -passlogfile log-file out.flv


in.ogg was the Ogg Theora file. The above command converted in.ogg to out.flv. I uploaded the out.flv file to Youtube and I was all set.
