FLV and F4V are the de facto standard for web video today; 80% of online videos are viewed worldwide using Adobe Flash® technology.
An FLV file encodes synchronized audio and video streams. The audio and video data within FLV files are encoded in the same way as audio and video within SWF files. Starting with SWF files published for Flash Player 6, Flash Player can exchange audio, video, and data over RTMP connections with Adobe Flash® Media Server. One way to feed data to Flash Media Server (and thus to Flash Player clients) is from files in the FLV file format. Starting with SWF files published for Flash Player 7, Flash Player can also play FLV files directly with MIME type video/x-flv. An FLV file encodes synchronized audio and video streams.
The FLV format is an open format that is also supported by many non-Adobe/Macromedia programs. The .flv files may also be exported from QuickTime Pro or other applications that can export to the QuickTime file format.
