Pros

Cons
It's full of bloatware and other garbage. It installs some "antivirus" virus program It installs something else b something that i dont remember the exact name.
Summary
Pass. There's other flv players that dont install bunch of garbage.
Works but beware of crapware

Pros
It works, it plays fvl files.
Cons
It installs a lot of crapware and resets your browser settings. Also when you select not to. I spent long time first uninstalling all of that, then restoring my browser settings.
Summary
Includes Sweetpacks.com malware

Pros
DO NOT INSTALL!
Cons
At some point, the installer said that it would install the sweetpacks toolbar. No way Jose, I clicked "decline," and guess what, it installed the toolbar anyways. Now I have ad-ons to all my browsers that I had to uninstall and I still have a browser redirect problem (i.e. sweetpacks.com hijacks my browser traffic and inserts their ads). Already spent ~2 hrs trying to clean up this mess and not done. Might have to reinstall Windows. Will never trust a CNET download again.
Summary
Install this, and your computer will be screwed by sweetpacks.com.
Works, for the most part.

Pros
Relatively easy to use. Plays some AVI files. Play FLV files and allow adjust for poorly recorded files.
Cons
Without asking it became the preferred media player for every file type. In the full screen mode you cannot pause, advance or even escape. You must Alt+Ctrl+Del to get out.
Summary
Good player with flexibility for FLV files. Not so great with other file types. Not a fan of Alt+Ctrl+Del to end the program.

Developer’s Description

By XetoWare

Play FLV video files with ease.

FLV Player can play FLV video files with ease. Flash Videos are the most common type of video used around the world. Websites such as YouTube, Dailymotion, Facebook, Myspace and so on, all use Flash Videos (FLV Videos) for their audience. Unfortunately, most video players, such as Windows Media Player DOES NOT Support FLV files, and that's where FLV Player steps in. XetoWare's FLV Player's extremely simple controls allow you to navigate backward and forward through videos and play them in a loop. You can also adjust the volume, mute it, and adjust the size of the player, including full-screen. There is friendly tips and assistance throughout the program to make sure you can play the video you want without any trouble or issues. We believe in comfort and simplicity therefore, we also offer full-screen resolution and drag and drop support; simply drag a file in to FLV Player and it will play automatically. By downloading and installing this quick flash player in seconds, easily drag and drop your FLV file from your desktop or computer and sit back and enjoy.
