MP3 to FLV

Looking to turn a MP3 into FLV? Here's the honest answer — and the conversions that actually work.

We can't convert MP3 to FLV — images and audio are completely different kinds of files. Here's what actually works.

What you can do instead

Why MP3 to FLV isn't possible

1

Different kinds of files

An image stores pixels; an audio file stores a sound waveform. Neither contains the other, so no tool can turn a sound recording into a picture.

2

Want a picture of the sound?

Album art or a waveform image is a design task — create the image, then convert that. Your MP3 audio itself can't become a FLV.

3

Do this with your MP3 instead

MP3 converts cleanly to WAV, AAC or FLAC.

Frequently asked questions

No. Audio and images are fundamentally different, so there's nothing to convert. You can convert your MP3 to WAV, AAC or FLAC instead.

Maybe a waveform/album-art image, or adding this audio to a video — those are separate tools, not a MP3→FLV conversion.
