  • how to convert FLV without installing Perian

    Posted by Trevor Ward on September 30, 2010 at 5:33 pm

    I’ve got an old video that is in quicktime format but is an FLV1 codec. 3 years ago, I had Perian installed on my computer. But I’ve since gotten rid of it since I use AVCHD. Perian causes problems with AVCHD and FCP.

    I now need to get to the video again and I can’t open it. I’ve tried MPEG Streamclip to no avail.

    Should I just install Perian and then uninstall it?

    Exactly. It takes but a second to do both of those processes.
