[FFmpeg-user] Encode flv video with no audio

Hi,

I'm making an application that needs to convert videos to webm or mp4, 
it works great with all videos I've tried, but it fails if I use a flv 
file with no audio channels.

A example command (not the actual flags I use, but fails anyway):

|$ ffmpeg -i 0986229665-339108519108-86498841039-6078455325.flv out.webm

If I pass the -an option, it works, but I can't do that because then all 
videos wouldn't have audio.

Any ideas?
