4. When I enter fullscreen-mode, I cannot go back to normal mode! - This seems to be a problem that is related to mProjector, the tool I use to create FLV Player with. If this new version of FLV Player is giving you troubles, you can try reverting to the previous version. We have notified Screentime, the creator of mProjector (the tool I use to convert my Flash file into a Windows standalone executable) of this issue, I hope they are able to fix this soon!
   You can also try the following fix, posted by one of my blog visitoirs:
   1 - Close FLV Player.
   2 - Find the executable file FLVPLAYER.EXE (should be in C:\Program Files\FLVPlayer) and right click on it.
   3 - Select PROPERTIES, COMPATIBLITY, and check Run this program in compatibility mode.
   4 - Then choose WINDOWS 2000.
   5 - Start FLV Player.
5. Is there a Mac version of FLV Player available? - No, for Mac users I highly recommend the excellent free Quicktime component Perian . Perian allows you to play FLV files (amongst other formats) within the Quicktime player on your Mac.
