macromedia players flash: can the flash player help play flv files on windows media player. When I try to
play one, I can hear the sound but I only get vizualition videos, not the
actual movie. Is there any way to make it work, and if not, is there anything
else I can do to play them on wmp.

Um, the short answers is 'no'. Windows Media Player has no capability to
play FLV that I know of.

There are a number of 3rd party tools out there designed to just play SWF/FLV.
A google search should turn up a few.
