For use with YouTube:

-------flv2avi--------
#!/bin/bash

for i in "$@"; do
    mencoder -oac pcm -ovc copy "$i" -o "${i%.flv}.avi";
done;
------EOF-------

mplayer has problems with audio seeking in FLV files, so a good choice 
is to convert it to PCM. Reencoding it to MP3 would not be worth the 
effort (heck, quality already sucks with youtube videos, no need to 
make it worse).
