Windows media player can't play .flv files
When I try and use Windows Media Player (on my new Windows 8 pc) to play .flv files I get told the extension is not recognised but the player might still be able to play it. It isn't able to play it.

Adobe flash player is only a web browser plugin and will not play downloaded FLV files. You need to install properly configured codecs to allow WMP (and Media Center) to playback these files. The easiest and widely used solution is to use the Shark007 codecs for Windows 8. Here aere download links - Main installer ------ 64bit addon - after installation, select the SUGGESTED settings checkbox and all media files including FLV will play in the Windows players.
If the file fails in VLC, it is almost 100% assured the file is unplayable by any means.
Any file that VLC can play, installation of my software will allow WMP to play it also.
