  • File used was 20051210_w50s.flv, taken from Media college.com: Download Example FLV Files
  • Used the following command to convert the file: ffmpeg -i 20051210-w50s.flv -vcodec mpeg2video -qscale 1 -qmin 1 -intra -ar 48000 20051210-w50s.mxf
  • Note: FITS tools don't recognize the MXF format and only generate a small amount of generic file metadata as a result
