Thank you for reading this.
Someone recently asked a question about this very topic but the answer
didn't help me.
I have always been able to play flv files, with various players, until
Mageia 2. For example, this is the error that VLC generates:
I noticed that older video clips that I had downloaded from youtube
played but newer ones don't. So I reasoned that there must be a problem
with the down-loader and not the player, which was the case.
I have been using a Firefox plug-in called "Download helper" for several
years without any problems. It still downloads but not correctly,
apparently, because I can no longer convert files with ffmpeg.
Anyway, I now use "Flash video down loader" which works perfectly.
