Converting on the fly?

[spires]

HI,

I was wounder, could i use ffmpegX to solve this problem:

I new to flash and php, I can use them both on there own, but have never merged the two together.

I have built a video uploader (php, mysql) stored the file names in a database.
The files upload as avi, mpeg and mov.
As yu know, the flash player only plays flv.
So, i need a way to convert the files over, either during the upload or during the play back?

How do youtube and myspace do it?

Thanks for any help.
