To play FLV files on your default video player, you need to install PlayFLV as well as ffdshow which is a media decoder/encoder. Once done, all FLV files are played without fault.

it not work , fddshow , k lite codec , not work

The situation with codecs is typical of the lack of standardisation stupidity that is rampant within the IT industry. There are more proprietary formats than I have had hot dinners, and non are compatible.
I tried this solution, and it didn’t work. Users end up with a hard drive full off crappy video players to cover the multitude of junk formats that propagate the internet.
