    hello,kel, window media player supports avi video format, if you want to play flash movies or animations in it, the easy way is convert flash file to avi file. I know iwisoft swf to avi converter, my friend used before, is good for that, maybe you can google it and have a try.

    Is there a reason you have to do this with Media player?

    A better solution that plays pretty much every video format out there that's lightweight and free/open source is the VLC player. You can grab it here:

    VLC media player - Open Source Multimedia Framework and Player

    I agree that this is probably the best player plus is multi platform.

    If you add the free Audcaity and some other open source product you have a virtual suite for Internet Marketing

    If you want to stream the files via the internet then convert to MP4 as FLV is dead in the water now. Otherwise download a free product called 'Super' which will convert FLV to AVI for you.
