What is a file with FLV extension ?
Files
with extension FLV (for FLash Video ) are video files encoded in a
format used to produce video from the Macromedia Flash development
tool. It is possible to program a player in Flash to read them like the
one you can download here, but unfortunately the Flash player itself
does not allow to read them directly by file association nor even while
drag and dropping the files into his window or one of the internet
navigator.
Why do I need this ?
By
default, the installation of the Flash Player or Macromedia Flash
development tool does not install any player associated with FLV files
to read them as Windows Media Player, Real Player or Quicktime would do
it when you click on any .wma, .mow, .rm files. Even if there are
already some tools on Internet, it is always irritating not to find
immediately a tool to read FLV files when you just need to read them.
This player is really simple, I have made it really quickly with the
MediaPlayback component from Macromedia Flash MX 2004 and mProjector
for the executable file and functionnalities associated to it.
