An FLV video may carry music, speech or other sound you want without the picture. MP3 stores only audio that can be extracted from the source. If the FLV has no usable sound, no listening file can be made from it.

Adobe Flash Video — legacy streaming format
MPEG Layer 3 — the universal compressed audio format
FLV files came from different web and recording workflows. Confirm that the particular file opens and that its audio plays through, rather than assuming every .flv contains a usable soundtrack. A clip may start with a silent title card, contain only background music, or have speech later. Mark a representative point before any extraction so the MP3 can be compared with a known section. Keep the FLV in case visuals or captions carry information that a sound-only file cannot express.
An MP3 of a lecture needs a clear name and complete ending. An MP3 of a performance needs balanced channels and no accidental truncation. Neither result gains lyrics, transcript, or chapter markers automatically. If the source uses an unusual audio stream, a converter may fail to decode it; changing the filename will not help. Encoding to MP3 can change the sound again, so listen for artifacts around speech and music instead of claiming an improvement.
Test an FLV with no audio as a separate failure case.
For a recorded performance, listen for music distortion and an incomplete ending. For a conversation, identify whether both speakers remain audible and whether the original video provided important speaker cues. If the FLV came from an old webpage, note that descriptions and captions may have lived outside the file. MP3 extraction will not bring them along. Keep a provenance note so the listening copy is not mistaken for a complete preservation of the original publication.
No. It contains only extracted audio.
There is no soundtrack to extract; the operation should say so.
Not by extraction alone.
Some errors appear only after a long decode or near the final frame.
A saved FLV may lack the title, captions, and rights notice shown around it online. Documenting that context helps listeners understand the MP3 without implying those details were encoded in its audio.
