FLV to SWF conversion?

I'm trying to load an FLV (youtube video) file into Adobe Connect, but it only takes SWF files.

The way I understand it, the youtube player is a SWF file and the FLV video plays within that file.

So my question is: How do I get a playable youtube video onto my machine for uploading to Adobe Connect in SWF format? Any ideas?

What OS? Not to be snarky, but lots of info here.

I've used Media Convert with success in the past. Hope this helps, good luck.
