How to edit .flv video created with Adobe Flash Media Encoder?
Now that I'm ready to go back and do editing (clip sections of audio/video), I realize I can't do it with Camtasia Studio 6.
What can I use to truly edit the video?
Should I convert it to another format and if so, will I experience a huge quality loss?
I looked at RichFLV and Moyea FLV Editor Pro. The first isn't able to edit and the second only let's me "trim" the start/end times.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

A more complicated, but probably higher quality way (if your underlying video is H.263 or VP6) would be to install Moitah's FLV input driver http://moitah.net/download/latest/FLV_Input_Driver.zip and frameserve from Virtualdub to Camtasia.

M$To convert from FLV, you can use SUPER (http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html) and I would output to a high quality AVI.
Then you can edit it, try windows movie maker, it's not too terrible (final cut on a mac is what you should really be using :). Output as a high quality AVI and then use super to convert back to FLV.
Since all you can record in is flash, I would choose H.264 and the highest bit rate your computer can keep up with. This will give you the best quality to start out with.

M$dholowiski,
I hear you but it sounds like conversion to avi and back to flash will reduce the video quality even more.
With Ustream.tv, they say you cannot select h.264 in Adobe Flash Media Encoder (FME) AND send it to the Ustream Broadcast Console.
Maybe I should look at Justin.tv instead?
