what is flv file

Flash Video format explained

FLV stands for Flash Video, a container format developed by Adobe for delivering video over the internet via Flash Player. Though modern browsers no longer support Flash, millions of FLV files remain in archives, training videos, webinars, recorded presentations, and early online courses.

Common FLV use cases

Organizations typically encounter FLV files in older content management systems, archived e-learning platforms, and backup drives. Screen recordings, product demos, and internal communications from 2005–2015 often exist only as FLV. Converting these to text makes them discoverable again and compatible with modern systems.
