Which installer does the setup use? installshield ? wise ? other?

Because of that, my suggestion goes to audio and video quality, like controlling the audio and video buffer and the pixelation, codec of choice, etc. I've been getting terrible lags in every FLV I watch locally, but not remotely and not in other video files. I'd also suggest a longer volume control (bigger volume scale), a full window mode (not full screen, but a window with a blank area, like HTML pages in a browser), and, if possible, forcing the ability to seek to a specific point in any FLV file.

Thanks for the great work. “Always on top” for sure.

Thanks for the great work.

Did you try to use the ?start= url query extension while seeking on a http stream? - Would be a nice feature. And possibly also show the complete url on the info window with the hostname included. And if possible a KB/s measurement with a download time calculation (useful for prebuffering in "pause mode" for coffee cooking ;-) Thanks! Hi,

However, one suggestion I would make is that to play multiple songs sequentially, I tried executing in a batch file consecutive commands of "{path}FLVPlayer.exe" "{path}{filename1}.flv" "{path}FLVPlayer.exe" "{path}{filename2}.flv" etc. at DOS. This succeeded in starting and playing the first selection, however, the program does not close when an flv file is concluded playing, hanging the batch file and the playlist. If a mode for auto-close at end of play could be added, it would be great, as batch playlists such as this could be executed. This, is my opinion, would make this the best *flv player available.

Please do not extend too much its features and the neat UI which seem to me quite optimal. Congratulations and thanks for this very useful player.
