What's the best 'full screen' flv viewer to use with Win98?
I've found when it comes to W98 and playing FLVs there is very little
support ... but there is a COMBINATION of software which works wonders! To give all the details would take an hour of pounding on the KB (time which I don't have), so here it is in brief. This combination of software allows the playing of ANY FLV (thus far) whether windowed or full screen. BTW, it's been a L-O-N-G time since setting this up so will do my best with recall ! Obtain and set-up the following softwa 1. FLV Splitter (sourceforge.net), use v1.005, Gabest altered version (2007); be sure to REGISTER the .ax on your PC; e.g. START | RUN | regsvr32 flvsplitter.ax 2. FFDshow (I use version rev 1324 2007-07-01), video decoder must be specifically setup up to play FLVs 3. WinAMP (I use v5.31); the Nullsoft DirectShow decoder (v1.0, included?) must be setup to play FLVs Last not; I HIGHLY recommend a backup of your registry (as a minimum). FFDshow will REALLY change some AV related entries!! ___ "Robert A. Macy" wrote in message ... Tried three of flv players: ??

I downloaded it, went and got the unicode layer, installed it. Looks like VLCPlayer wants to play EVERYTHING BUT!!! .flv As I went through the list to prevent VideoLAN from attaching itself to files like .wav and .bin I did NOT see any listing for .flv OK, maybe an oversight. After installing, I used VLCPlayer to open .flv only to find it puts up a series of vertical stripes, ...the size of a postage stamp. You've always given me good advice before. Did I do something wrong? Does VLCPlayer play .flv files? Robert |

Works on Win98FE Robert Thank you for your reply. After the frustrating experience with VLC Player, I stumbled across Sothink FLV Player for WinXP, Win2000, etc BUT!!! it works on Win98, but need to install one of the Adobe Flash Player somethings and it works incredibly well I get FULL SCREEN video with NO margins http://www.sothinkmedia.com/flv-player and only 3+MB, not very big.
