If you use a UNC url you can't load/play FLV's - it won't work.

you have to have a drive letter mapped.  I assume, though, that your USB has
a drive letter - yes?

bad:  \\serverName\folder\myfile.flv

good:  J:\folder\myfile.flv

I just gave that a shot and no luck.

Have you tried shortening the file name to something DOS compatable?
( 8 characters + extension )

   i.e. Classrom.flv
