Converting H.264 Encoded Video Files directly to Flash Video Files (.h264 to .flv conversion) should be possible and quite straightforward.

Use one of several video editing programs or (online) conversion tools, such as the Freemake Video Converter or Adapter, which allow users to import H264 videos and re-save them in FLV format.

This file conversion has been marked as obsolete. No dedicated converter or free online tool is available, or one of the formats is very old and has been replaced by newer versions, making this type of conversion unnecessary in modern usage.

On the other hand, the FLV (Flash Video) format is a container file format used to deliver digital video content over the internet using Adobe Flash Player. Although its usage has declined with the advent of newer technologies, it is still used in some legacy systems.
