Hi there!
it didn't work with that options in nokias phones. I get an error with my s60 in smartmovie complaining about 'bad AVI'. It worked out with this script. In case someone find this useful:





#!/bin/sh

#mencoder -of avi -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=500:interlacing -afm ffmpeg -af resample=16000,channels=1 -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=64:mode=3 -noskip -vop scale=208:176 flv/tAsOfqCy4A0.flv -o prueba.avi



if [ -z "$1" ]; then

  echo "Usage: $0  list_of_flv_files"

  exit 1

fi



# video encoding bit rate

V_BITRATE=50

while [ "$1" ]; do

  mencoder -of avi -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=$V_BITRATE:interlacing -afm ffmpeg -af resample=16000,channels=1 -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=64:mode=3 -noskip -vop scale=208:176 "$1" -o "`basename $1 .flv`.avi"

shift

done

Save it as flv2avi.sh and
$chmod 755 flv2avi.sh
