Converting a video elsewhere means uploading the whole thing, waiting, and trusting a stranger's server with footage that may not be yours to hand over. The conversion happens here instead.

Questions

Why convert MP4 to FLV?

MP4 is the format everything plays, and the safe answer when you are not sure. FLV is a Flash-era container you now mostly meet when rescuing something old. Converting is how you move a file from the first situation to the second.

Does converting lose quality?

Re-encoding always costs something. Going to a modern format at a generous bitrate costs very little; going through several conversions in a row is what does real damage.

Which format should I pick?

MP4 if you are not sure — it plays everywhere. WebM if it is for a web page and you want it small.
