MS VidEdit (part of Video for Windows) can import a Flc and then make
it Avi.  It's available lots of places. However why use Flc in the
first place? Since it's a 256 color format it can look pretty bad in
comparsion to the 24bit color animations.  DTA can do great for either
of those but there are no conversions I have seen for Flt until it's
own Avi came along.  I almost always make Mpeg anyway.

PS  it has been noted by others that the first frame of the Avi
animations is low quality.  Apparently due to the method of
compression, not real noticeable in a loop, just so you know.... I see
the same for VidEdit made files too.
