Native FLV Playback Firefox

Native FLV Playback

By: Heporis
Allows FLV playback in browser without any other media players.

Features & Capabilities

Native FLV Playback is a Chrome extension designed to play FLV video files directly inside your browser without the need for external media players. When you click on any FLV link or paste an FLV URL into the address bar, it instantly opens a new tab with a video player powered by the flv.js library, ensuring smooth playback.

This extension replaces the default behavior where browsers download FLV files instead of playing them. Acting as a wrapper around the open-source flv.js project, Native FLV Playback enhances your browsing experience by streamlining access to FLV content effortlessly.
