Have you tried "panning" option in flvcat.py? It sometimes works
with varied reduction rates. (But in other times the result looks unbearable.)

  $ flvcat.py -W 640x480 in.flv out.flv

Another way would be to shrink the entire screen as you mentioned.
Originally, pyvnc2swf has this option. But I dropped it in vnc2flv
because it was depending on pygame for image operation. Other than that,
I don't have much idea for reducing it.
