After you download it, you should convert it to mpeg. I have a script somewhere that does this. I think it uses mencoder. Then you can use pretty much any player.

Please post your flv to mpg converter, sounds like a good idea. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum	[reply]

OS X people may be interested in ffmpegX (shareware) which is a drag-n-drop app that sits on top of things like mencoder and can convert between several different video file formats. Of course VLC on OS X seems to be able to open FLV files fine, so that might be a possibility as well (`system( "open -a /Applications/VLC.app $infile" );`). And I had to ++ the OP just for the choice of default URLs it pulls down. :)	[reply] [d/l]
