Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Of course it works 8) 1.) Install the flv splitter from: http://inmatrix.osnn.net/osflvsplitter.1.0.0.1_nt.exe 2.) Get ffdshow's official beta 1 from: http://ffdshow.info * You might want to uninstall any other codec packs beforehand, ffdshow already incorporates almost any video and audio codec and in a much more simpler way than those monstrous codec packs. ![]() Now flv's should play for you in WMP - and any other player infact. ![]() Last edited by AShu; February 5th, 2007 at 08:38 AM. |
