Playing+Flash+Videos+(FLV)

When you download flash videos (FLV files) from YouTube and elsewhere, you may wish (or even need) to view them before you add them to your Prezi. To do this, you need to have a flash video player on your computer. This is not something that comes with most computers right out of the box; you need to grab a player off the web and install it.

There are lots and lots of choices of players that you can get for free. The player I've liked best is called "VLC." The VLC media player is easy to use on both Mac and PC, and it plays many video formats other than flash. And it's free.

Let me know if you find other players that you like.
