[insight]

I used to use it all the time and while back something happened & I got rid.

Thanks. Got it. Its lovely.

Thank you for your feedback insight,

What property is missing for FLV?

"FLV", which is a container, works.
It might be some obscure codec that a particular clip is using, or a file not to spec or corrupt, or a file that (what did it say ?), something to the effect that, well, it no longer passes muster.

I have any number of files, probably all flv, that will only play (now) in MPC-BE.
Not in mpv, not in mplayer, not in vlc... Not recognizable by ffmpeg or Media Info...
(And to top it off, I've yet to figure how to transcode them into something that is more approachable.)

Let me check/ see what're the details on these FLVs. I'll share a copy if I can.

Interesting. Do share more details on these mysterious FLV entities. Call me curious

Now what that all means, don't really know.
Suffice to say, it might or might not play in a particular player.
I may or may not be able to transcode it into something else.
If the issue stems from the files original creation, or corruption later on, don't know.
