<p>FFmpeg can do this. By "FLV (Flashvideo)" I assume you mean "FLV1 / Sorenson Spark / Sorenson H.263". Not sure why anyone would choose this these days over H.264.</p>

<p>Example:</p>

<pre><code>ffmpeg -i input -c:v flv1 -q:v 2 -filter:v scale=iw/2:-1,hqdn3d output.flv
</code></pre>

<p>What the options mean:</p>

<ul>
<li><code>-c:v flv1</code> Choose the encoder named <code>flv1</code></li>
<li><code>-q:v 3</code> Quality level. Range is 1-31 (for MPEG-1/2/4, excluding H.264) and a higher value is a lower quality.</li>
<li><code>-filter:v scale=iw/2:-1,hqdn3d</code> Filters that will:
<ul>
<li>Scale your video to half the size of the input then</li>
<li>Apply the de-noise filter <code>hqdn3d</code></li>
</ul></li>
</ul>

<p>my question is:</p>

<p><strong>Which simple, lightweight, straightforward, easy to use software for Win7 can do the following:</strong></p>

<p>A) import/convert on the fly MP4 (H264) movie into FLV (Flashvideo) and apply following:</p>

<p>C) Simple color toning or sharpess effects will be great</p>

<p>The MP4 movies are recorded in Full HD and come from an Android 4.0 device that captures footages in great detail. I tried Premiere but thats too heavy/expensive/too much)</p>

FFmpeg can do this. By "FLV (Flashvideo)" I assume you mean "FLV1 / Sorenson Spark / Sorenson H.263". Not sure why anyone would choose this these days over H.264.
Example:
ffmpeg -i input -c:v flv1 -q:v 2 -filter:v scale=iw/2:-1,hqdn3d output.flv

What the options mean:

-c:v flv1 Choose the encoder named flv1
-q:v 3 Quality level. Range is 1-31 (for MPEG-1/2/4, excluding H.264) and a higher value is a lower quality.
-filter:v scale=iw/2:-1,hqdn3d Filters that will:

Scale your video to half the size of the input then
Apply the de-noise filter hqdn3d


Windows users can download recent FFmpeg from Zeranoe FFmpeg Builds.
