Several ways to play FLV files


Playing .FLV videos with freeware Applian FLV Player

Install freeware Applian FLV Player (http://applian.com/flvplayer/)

If you already have Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm) or Replay A/V (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-AV-capture-Streaming-Video-Audio-Radio-Shows-Online-TV-Broadcasts-Video-Clips-Audio-Archives-Podcasts-Free-to-try.htm) installed (it can be used to record .FLV videos easily), then FLV player is already loaded for you.

Locate the FLV file using File Explorer. If you've used Replay A/V (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-AV-capture-Streaming-Video-Audio-Radio-Shows-Online-TV-Broadcasts-Video-Clips-Audio-Archives-Podcasts-Free-to-try.htm), click the Show you've captured, then click the View button.

Double click the .FLV file. It begins playing in FLV Player

This is the most stable .FLV playing solution I've ever tried.

Playing .FLV videos with freeware KMPlayer (MPlayer)

Playing .FLV videos with freeware VLC Player
You may also use VLC Player (http://all-streaming-media.com/stream-broadcast/free-audio-video-stream-broadcasting-software.htm#VLC) instead of FLV Player to play .FLV files

VLC has problems playing some FLV files.

Playing .FLV videos with Windows Media Player, Media Player Classic using a codec pack
The latest version of K-Lite Codec Pack (freeware) has FLV splitter. You may play .FLV videos after installing it using any DirectShow-supporting player like free Media Player Classic or even Windows Media Player for playing FLV files.

Be sure and get at least ‘K-Lite Codec Pack Standard’ as ‘K-Lite Codec Pack Basic’ is insufficient if you want to play ‘.FLV’ videos with Windows Media Player.
