This free software will let you search youTube and dailyMotion videos without opening your browser and you can even watch the videos using the built-in video player. Free FLV Converter allows you to easily grab and save desired video. This software can convert the videos to Avi (xvid), Ipod, iphone and psp format (MPEG4 and H.264). This software can also convert all your videos (divx, xvid, mpeg, dvd, avi) to FLV video (Flash video) with an automatic HTML page creation. You will only have to place the files on your website to SHARE your videos with the entire world. Version 1.2.1 fixes some bugs.

Lightweight and effective, this program is a GREAT way to convert video files from Flash formats into something USEFUL beyond Web pages. Specializing in formats meant for portable devices, Free FLV Converter also supports AVI and can download embedded SWF or FLV vids directly from the Internet when you punch in the URL.

The app can also perform local searches for vids as well as convert to FLV. Hitting either conversion tab will automatically open a file browser so you can choose your victim. From there, a conversion window opens up, and you can change the basics such as settings, including output format, quality, and destination directory, as well as more advanced options like the codec, aspect ratio, and the frame rate. Tap convert at the bottom of the window when you're ready, and the Free FLV Converter works smoothly and without interfering with other programs.

Free FLV Converter does have one annoyance: When you install it, be sure to opt out of the Dealio toolbar. It's no more than a minor drawback, though, and doesn't cause problems later on. Seeing as how the app ran smoothly in the background, it's DEFINITELY a must-use piece of freeware.
