Cool. Tried it, seemed to work fairly well. Haven't tried without
Javascript though. I use NoScript at home.

Some feedback:

You should inform the user of which codecs you're using at least for AVI
and MOV. Usually these containers contain a rather heterogeneous mix of
codecs in the wild - the most common being divx variants and msmpeg4v2,
and mp3 (I think).

You might want to make sure people's uploads/converted files don't
collide filename-wise.

I can't find any mention of FFmpeg anywhere. I suspect a link to
ffmpeg.org is required if you want to be linked in return. It's also a
good idea since more savvy users just figure "aha, it takes anything
ffmpeg takes".
