Beware of the 'Bing' toolbar installation folks! When prompted, go to 'custom installation' and uncheck the boxes....

Not too impressive, on many local flv files I've tried it gives me multiple popup windows saying floating point division by zero error. Some videos the popup messages are nonstop stacking on top of each other forcing me to bring up Task Manager to terminate it.
On the plus side it seems to have some interesting extra features for saving video caps, but I'm not interested in that right now just wanted a fast full screen flv player and this isn't reliable enough nor am I crazy about the interface with the separate window for play, pause controls and it showing the playlists..
I'm looking forward to seeing comments on some of the best other options out there.

I purchased this program just last week, after researching several swf & flv players/screen capture programs. I thought it would be a good fit for what I needed. Unfortunately, while researching the trial before buying it, I must have been lucky/unlucky enough to pick just swfs/flvs that had used codexs encoded before the last time this program's software had been updated.

However, after purchasing SWF & FLV Player Pro, I began to get the "floating point division by zero" error that Chad (@ comment #2) has already mentioned. According to the program's Knowledge Base, if you play flvs with codex which were endcoded since they last updated their program, you will get the "floating point division by zero error" message.

In researching their site, I read that this particular build was "compiled" on the 19th of October, 2010, but I can't find any explanation of what that means, because the change log says that the most recent changes were made when the program was totally rebuilt on August 22, 2007. Am I missing something here? Or am I correct in my assumption that anything that uses a codex that's been released since 2007 is not going to work in this program?

I'm also having the problem with popup messages that are "nonstop stacking on top of each other," which is another problem encountered by Chad. Like him, I have to bring up the Task Manager to terminate the program after this happens. I sent a message to Support last week, but they have not yet resolved the issue. They asked me for a copy of one of the files causing the problems, which I sent, but I haven't had any response since then.

To be fair, they've only had two days to research the problem since I sent the file to them on Thursday of this week, but I'm not very encouraged by what I've discovered so far. I thought I'd done my homework and found a program that suited my needs, but so far I've had nothing but disappointments since I purchased SWF & FLV Player Pro.

don't like it when developers attempt to download changes or mess with browser settings.

For those living outside the USA, yes, be careful that you untick the Bing toolbar items under 'Custom installation' if you don't want the bar.
