Quite a few flv files contain (only) mp3 audio or (HE-)AAC audio.
Obviously these files can be demuxed using FLVExtract.exe into standard mp3 and AAC, but it would be even more convenient if fb2k could play the flv files as-is.
Cheers,
David.
It seems FLV is MP4-based so this should be trivial, request noted.
Update: only the new "F4V" container is MP4-based, so it's not that simple after all.
if you don't mind me asking, where do you find these "quite a few" audio-only FLV files?

What about foo_input_flv ?

Thanks, but it refuses HE-AAC, and plays garbled nonsense for mp3.

cool, i'll have to check out some of those stations
By the way, BBC radio is also available in .asx, which you can use in foobar with foo_input_mslive. They might only be available in certain regions though. You can also set a folder.jpg for them. I made some from the .svgs on wikipedia, if anyone wants I could upload them, although I don't know if it's legal...
The decent quality stuff is UK only.
Currently streaming = 128kbps AAC; on-demand = 96kbps HE-AAC and 192kbps AAC.

Hi,
The url mentioned sooner is not anymore proposing foo_input_flv.dll for downloading.
As far as I know, Foobar2000 is able to play audio from video files which use codec avc1 (H.264/MPEG-4 AVC) but if file extension is .flv you have to rename it to mp4 else you will get an error message in foobar2000.
To find what codec is used by a file you can open it with GSpot Codec Appliance downloadable from Google.
Then Foobar2000 still can not play FLV4/VP6 files.
Does anyone managed to play FLV4 files with foobar2000 ?
I can only play them with VLC until now.
a+, =)

Configuration : Foobar2000 v0.9.6.8
What about DirectShow Input (foo_input_ds) (http://fb2k.org/show.php?id=244)? I think it may allow you to play whatever files, mine plays avi files for example. Of course I am getting no video but that's not a problem for me
Mine does not play flv files but perhaps I am missing a codec.

This is ok for AVIs but not for FLV or other extension when codec is FLV4/VP6.
Then my question's still open

hi guys
I have the same problem
I wanna play http://u12b.sky.fm/sky_classical_aacplus.flv (http://u12b.sky.fm/sky_classical_aacplus.flv)
but foobar2000 refused.
Any solutions?
hi guys, I have the same problem. Any solutions?
You can extract the audio with FLV Extract (GUI and command line) from http://moitah.net/ (http://moitah.net/) ... but I still think it's a shame that foo_input_flv doesn't work anymore and foobar itsself is unable to open flv containers!
FLVextract gives you a raw AAC stream that fb2k can play, but cannot seek. You need to remux it to get that functionality.
So native FLV support would be great.
Cheers,
David.
