flv vs mp4 480p flv or mp4? but for 480p

[Simon Ghoul 0]

I had always used mp4 because I thought it was the best and it is it's been known for it's quality
thing is, for videopad preset "Youtube 480p" they put you on flv, why is that? is there a reasoning into why flv goes better with videos of this quality or something? I tried to do research but most people just tell you which one is the best and they didn't give enough specifications, so well, can someone explain it to me? I'll still be using mp4 until I get an answer
