I'm having a peculiar problem and I'm wondering if anyone else is and if anyone has found a solution. I'm grabbing some video from youtube, they load in as .flv files. When I try to convert them in isquint, it gives me an error saying that video TS files cannot be converted...eh? its a .flv file not a video ts file....anybody have any ideas?

iSquint is no longer being updated IIRC. It's probably an issue to it's age and the ever progressing world of video.

I'm not sure if Handbrake supports FLV but if it does, you can use it to convert the video to a multiplicity of formats.

Yes, Handbrake supports flv files and is constantly updated. Good call.
