When to Convert
Common scenarios where this conversion is useful
Rescue Flash-era audio for Linux-based media players
FLV files require legacy Flash support to play on Linux. Converting to OGG Vorbis gives you a natively supported open audio format for any Linux media player including Rhythmbox, Clementine, and mpv.
Convert FLV game audio to OGG for web game engines
Flash games often stored audio in FLV format. If you are converting or preserving a Flash game, extracting audio from FLV files to OGG allows use in HTML5 replacements that support Web Audio API with OGG.
Migrate FLV audio library to open-source format
OGG Vorbis is royalty-free and supported by all open-source media tools. Convert your FLV audio archive to OGG for a format that has no licensing costs and wide open-source ecosystem support.
Extract FLV web content audio for Godot game engine
Godot uses OGG Vorbis for streaming audio. Convert audio from FLV Flash-era web content to OGG for use in modern game projects — particularly Flash game remakes or HTML5 game ports.
Create web browser-compatible audio from FLV files
OGG Vorbis plays natively in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge via HTML5 audio. Convert FLV audio to OGG to embed it in modern web pages or web apps without relying on Flash plugins.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. OGG Vorbis has no connection to Flash. It plays natively in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Android, and Linux without any Flash dependency. This makes it a perfect modern alternative for former FLV audio content.
Yes. OGG Vorbis is completely open-source with no patents or royalties. Anyone can create, distribute, and play OGG files for any purpose including commercial use, completely free of licensing concerns.
Yes. Both FLV audio (typically MP3 or AAC) and OGG Vorbis are lossy codecs. Re-encoding between them adds a small additional quality reduction. At high Vorbis quality settings, this difference is minimal.
FFmpeg uses a high quality Vorbis VBR setting by default, equivalent to approximately 192 kbps average bitrate. The actual bitrate varies by audio content complexity.
FFmpeg decodes Nellymoser audio from FLV files and re-encodes it as OGG Vorbis. Note that Nellymoser was a low-quality voice codec, so audio quality from these FLV files will be limited regardless of output format.
Yes. If you are porting a Flash game to HTML5 or Godot, OGG Vorbis is an ideal audio format. Chrome, Firefox, and Godot all support OGG natively, making it a drop-in audio solution for Flash remakes.
Yes. ChangeThisFile is completely free. No signup, no limits, and no fees.
Android natively supports OGG. iOS does not have native OGG support, but VLC for iOS handles it. For iOS-native playback, AAC or M4A are better choices.
Typically just seconds. Audio-only extraction is much faster than full video transcoding.
