I have an computer with latest Linux kernel. I have installed and working properly Fedora 17. I also have a brand new SONY BDV-E380 home theater system with compatible SONY LCD.
So I have videos (in format .flv) downloaded from YouTube and now I want to convert them on my Fedora 17 to compatible version for my Sony player.

Handbrake is probably the most tried and trued application for this.

If you want to do batch conversions, it would be quicker to use ffmpeg which should be in the Fedora repositories. All you need to do to install it is to open a terminal window and type: sudo yum install ffmpeg Check the man pages for how to use it to do your conversinos. Installing Handbrake (and probably Miro) will also install ffmpeg as that is what is used to do the grunt work of the conversion.

The Sony home theatre system you mentioned supports both XviD and MPEG4, so you could transcode the flv files into one of those 2 formats.Both Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr/) and Miro (http://www.getmiro.com/) can do this for you on Linux. Miro can even download videos from YouTube directly and convert them on the fly to make everything easier. Miro also always chooses the highest quality video when downloading from YouTube, so it might be a better choice.
