Flvtool2

From QuickWiki

FLVTool2 is a command line app for injecting FLV's with data as well as making basic edits.

I am using this because I have the previous version of Sorenson Squeeze that does not have the ability to give flv's ANY meta data (as far as I can find)

Everything below is for Mac OS X
