Sure, but not if one is 15 km away from the nearest CDMA tower and 
accessing the internet from that.

>ffmepg -i <input_file> -ar  22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 output_file.flv

This one encoded to flv without audio. Wonder why. So I played around 
with it and found this one working:

ffmepg -i <input_file> -acodec pcm_s8 -ar  22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 
320x240 output_file.flv

Never uploaded any video, so I do not know.
