Convert a FLV file to a MPG
ffmpeg -i original_file.flv new_file.mpg

Convert a MPG file to a FLV
ffmpeg -i original_file.flv new_file.mpg

Make a MP3 from a MPG
ffmpeg -i input.mpg -vn output.mp3

Convert a WAV file to a MP3
ffmpeg -i son_original_file.avi -vn -ar 44100 -ac 2 -ab 192 -f mp3 new_file.mp3
