Flash Video

Flash Video (".FLV" extension) is the format used to display video in Flash content. Most Flash Video content is viewed online (on sites such as YouTube), but in order to view .FLV content locally, you need a splitter installed (available below).

You will also need an FLV decoder installed. FFDShow can be enabled to play this format. You simply need to instruct it to decode "FLV1" content on the codec section of its configuration page (by default it may be disabled).

Downloading Flash Video files locally can be made easier using the VideoDownloader FireFox extension.
