Alex, Thanks. Yes I have seen that, but there is noting similar for what I want, that is to read the flv content to get its tags according to FLV spec from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flv/.
Pete, that is a good starting point, thank you. However, I need more help to be able to "read" the data from the FLV. readByte() returns an int and readBytes expects at least one parameter of type ByteArray which I have no clue what to put in there. And readObject(0 throws an ouf of bounds error.
