With regards to video encoding and speed, it's all about the hardware - The faster it is, the quicker it will happen.

 

As for the actual conversion, I can only assume you're using a UNIX/LINUX based server - This can be done over the command line with ffmpeg:

<?php
$in = "test.avi";
$out = substr($in,0,strrpos($in,".")).".flv";
exec("ffmpeg -i $in $out");
?>
