I downloaded a pack of about 50 .flv videos, most work just fine on any software that plays .flv, but some only play audio without video. I use Ubuntu 10.04 as main OS but also tried on Windows and had the same problem. I tried VLC v1.2 and latest, non worked.
I've tried converting the .flvs to .avis with ffmpeg, and the .avis play fine but the quality sucks, and it took a lot of time to convert so I don't want to image how much it would take to convert it without quality loss.
Lastly, I installed this on Linux: DesktopPlayerAir.
This player can play all the videos with sound and image, so I don't think the VLC can't play the videos because of a codec. But there's a problem, this player has no extra features, not even a playlist and I really need a playlist. I think this player works for all the videos because it makes uses of flash player core.
Does someone knows a similar video player for Linux that will play .flv videos and has a playlist feature?
