    I suggest Leawo Free FLV Converter which is totally free and clean. You can use it convert FLV to videos and audios in many pop formats(such as AVI, MP4, MOV, 3GP, WMV, MPEG, MP3, WMA, DV, etc) for further use and portable devices. The easy-to-use interface would smooth your operation and make you enjoy FLV on iPod, iPhone, PSP, Zune, XBOX and etc.

    Easy to use: Run the softwar -> Input videos -> Convert.

    Solutions:

    1, Convert FLV to videos and audios in AVI, MP4, MOV, 3GP, WMV, MPEG, MP3, WMA, DV, VOB, etc

    2, Burn FLV to DVD with DVD menu. First, use Leawo to convet FLV to VOB, then use star burn (http://www.flash-video-mx.com/starburn/) to burn the VOB file to DVD.

    If you're using Windows Movie Maker, it's possible you're trying to upload your video. However, MSWMM file is not an actual movie file. MSWMM file is a Windows Movie Maker project file. If you're satisfied with your movie, choose the 'Publish Movie' or 'Save Movie File' option (depending on which version you have) under the 'File' menu or you can select the "Save to My Computer" option to save the file, the format created or saved will be a movie file such as .avi or .wmv. You can then upload the generated file to YouTube.

    YouTube accepts a wide range of video file formats. This list is all the video files YouTube will accept. Some video formats work best and are most compatible with certain computers, software or devices.

    * Windows Media Video(.avi)

    * .3GP (cell phones)

    * .AVI (windows)

    * .MOV (mac)

    * .MP4 (ipod/psp)

    * .MPEG

    * .FLV (adobe flash)

    * .SWF (shockwave flash)

    * .MKV (h.264)

    Go to Windows movie maker, open your project, and then you need to click step 3 on the left "finish your movie" click "save to my computer" and then it will be in windows media format, which you can then upload to youtube

    When the file cannot be converted or too small size, it means the file is in the wrong format...

    Ensure the file format is correct before uploading to youtube...

    Using windows movie maker -- you have to save it into the proper file format, that is "wmv" file (use the "save movie file" on the menu at the top left) before upload..

    The WMV file will be smaller in size but still quite good quality.. so uploading it will be faster.

    also some movie maker version requires to be published instead of save... for that, press "ctrl-p" to publish or search&select a publish option from the menu at the top of the program window.

    --for best editing....

    use windows movie maker (included in your windows machine)... it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/etc).... then save it as video file such as wmv file format... finally upload.

    or .. Just get those clips you want , save & convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces....

    this will help you.... Use 'zillatube'. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.

    Zillatube produces mpg/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.

    It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/mpg videos with windows movie maker... save your file as wmv and then upload.

    It works very well....just google search for "zillatube", and select the first search result for download...
