About HEVC to FLV Conversion
Short answer: yes, you can convert HEVC to FLV online for free, and quality is well preserved with the right settings. Just upload your .hevc file to CocoConvert, pick FLV as the output, and click Convert. The whole process takes seconds.
Now for the details. HEVC is a widely used file format. FLV (Flash Video) is a legacy streaming format — converting to MP4 is recommended for modern use. Converting between these two formats lets you convert between formats quickly.
Your HEVC file is decoded and re-encoded as FLV. Converting HEVC to FLV maintains high quality with CocoConvert's optimised encoder settings.
CocoConvert runs entirely online — no software to install, no account to create. Your files are encrypted during upload (TLS), processed on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deleted after 24 hours. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and all mobile browsers.
Need to convert more than one file? Free users can do 5 per hour. Pro gets 100 per hour with files up to 5 GB each.
