I have found that Jing is quite a useful tool for screen capture.  It allows you to take pictures in JPG format or record movies in FLV format.  You determine the parameters of the recording area on your screen.  I imagine you could use Jing to encode video into FLV format simply by playing the video in another program and using Jing to record it.  Plus, at least for now, it is free.
