mr chris   10 #8 Posted November 20, 2006 flv is flash video, which is the format used by google and youtube. The player posted above is the only one I've seen that will play them like normal video files. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
sccsux   10 #9 Posted November 20, 2006 Media Player doesnt recognise .FLV  MediaPlayer Classic, not WMP (when installed as part of the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack).  I know this works, as I use it to play FLV files on thiese PCs:thumbsup:.
