ALSO
Perian when installed is a System Preference. In that System Preference there is an option to "Remove Perian". Takes 2 seconds and it's disabled. Want it back on again? "Install Perian" button, 2 seconds, done. Worth keeping the pref in since the remove/install works so easily.
MPEG Streamclip + Perian = FLV to MOV converter.
ALSO
Perian + QuickTime Pro = FLV to MOV converter.
