KhunBENQ Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I never watch flash videos offline with a standalone flash player. So you do? Or what is the question about? Everyone? I never felt the need to look for an alternative to flash player. It's mainly a headache/pressure to the website operators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Downloaded a sample flv file from here: https://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/flash/video/tutorial/example-flv.html Played it with VLC player. Some blurry low res video. No prob. More samples from here: https://filesamples.com/formats/flv 720p resolution and still blurry bad quality. Nothing to miss.

Only some ancient websites might still have some Flash elements on them, but using those website is probably not important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonymous Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I guess you've stored some older media files or play DVDs on your PC. I use VLC Media Player for all that. Works great. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandPapillon Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) a lot of porn websites were using Flash and FLV format for their streaming, also a great format to download "virus" and trojans while users were too busy [w...] on those pretty girls ????

Do you use an adblocker? Maybe the adblocker thinks the video is an advertisement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash player is officially dead, up to date browsers use HTML5 to stream content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
