CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
For a piece of freeware in a category that's rife with scams and junk, Free FLV Player stands out as a solid, reasonable program that does what it says, offers a bunch of options in the deal, and does it all without annoying predatory advertising.
The program starts off with eight skins, most of which provide significantly different looks beyond just a new coat of paint. The options menu, which is only right-click accessible, provides hot-key and menu access to several useful choices. These include fixed resizing to double the original size or full-screen viewing, maintaining the aspect ration, smoothing, nearly 20 languages, and rollover hints. It also has a built-in screencapper.
The app is not without its flaws, though. When installing, users must opt out of downloading a video-format converter made by the same publisher and the URL downloader doesn't work with YouTube. Still, the player is light on resources and generally performs as promised.

Version: FLVPlayer4Free 3.1
Pros: No idea - won't let me get that far
Cons: Installs ok but when I run it it insists that I download and install flash media player 8 before it will work !!!!! What's the point in that ? If I wanted to install flash media player 8 I wouldn't need FLVPlayer4Free (or any flv player), so as far as I can see this is just a complete waste of time and bandwidth.
Do yourself a favour and look elsewhere for an FLV player - this is useless.

Version: FLVPlayer4Free 3.1
Pros: It does let me play the flvs I download from youtube
Cons: When I click on a flv in windows it opens the app, but it does not open the file. I then have to drag the flv onto the app again.
