Flash is vector animation software, originally designed to create animations for display on web pages. Vector graphics are ideal for the web because they are so lightweight. Flash animation has a lot of remarkable excellence when it was used in web pages. For example: Flash movies load faster and save on download time because Flash is vector based. Flash intelligently "caches" its movies so they don't have to be reloaded. Flash gives the user (the person viewing/using the Flash movie) a more responsive "rich-client" like experience. So Flash animations are used more and more in the web recently. We can see all kinds of Flash movies on the web here and there and we can download interested Flash animations or view them on-line. However, an easy to use and powerful Flash player is the necessary tool we must have. Here I will commend you an excellent Flash player. That is NFLVPlayer which was published by Nikola Dachev. Now let's go and see how excellent it is!

nFLVPlayer is a player for the Flash Video (.flv) file format. It can play .flv files from our local drive or we can enter the URL of an online file. The player interface offers access to common playback controls, as well as picture adjustment and optional full-screen display.

Here are some main features and advantages of nFLVPlayer, including:

1. nFLVPlayer was built around macromedia flash ActiveX control and that control does play the video so compliance is 100% guaranteed.(it supports all codecs our installed flash player supports like sorenson, On2 VP6 etc).

2. nFLVPlayer offers common video player functionality controls. As an addition there is an OSD display, Smoothing function, and most recently accessed files/URL's list.

3. nFLVPlayer can also be used to play videos from most large online sources (like YouTube, Google Video, Pornotube, Metacafe, iFilm, Dailymotion, Collegehumor, LiveClip, Myspace,Blastro, Blennus, Blip.tv, Bofunk, Bolt, fliqz, AOL, Break.com, Castpost, CollegeHumor, Current TV, Dachix, Danerd, DailySixer.com, DevilDucky, Double Agent, eVideoShare, FindVideos, Free Video Blog, Grouper, Hiphopdeal, Music.com, MusicVideoCodes.info, MySpace Video Code, Newgrounds, PcPlanets, Pixparty, PlsThx, Putfile, Revver,eefoof,Professional Rockstars and many more.) providing us get the proper URL's.

4. We can use Mozilla FireFox extensions like Fast Video Download,Google Video Downloader etc. to get the proper links or download the videos.

5. nFLVPlayer offers full screen playback and picture adjustment controls for brightness, contrast, saturation and hue. nFLVPlayer provides superior full screen playback performance compared to other similar players still the performance bottleneck lies in Macromedia's poor OS support. As stated above flash player 9 or newer is recommended for better full screen performance.

6. We need a flash plug-in installed on our system in order for this player to work. The oldest flash version that nFLVPlayer supports is Flash 7 which imposes some limitations and may not play all possible videos because it lacks codecs for the newest.

7. Note that Flash Video is generally very CPU consuming so heavy bit rate video might need faster CPU accordingly.
