Aura FLV Player is a video player and sharing tool for Windows. The application allows you to play any FLV files that you have on your system. It is also advertised that you can simply input video URLs and the application will play them as well. I tried doing this with a YouTube video, and the process failed. However, you might have better luck trying with a URL that points directly to an FLV file. The application also allows you to share or publish FLV videos by creating an HTML file with an embedded FLV player.
The video playing capabilities of this player are basic. You can add files to a list and play them by double-clicking on them. There is also a video converter that can convert non-FLV files to FLV. I tested this feature with an AVI file, and it worked well. Regarding video playback, the player performed well. You can go to full-screen to play a video, but there are still parts of the interface visible, which is a little distracting.
Aura FLV Player includes a few templates for you to publish your videos to a web page. You can choose among them and then modify them a bit. You can also add overlay text to your videos.
All the features in this application seem to be free. But you can get a 1 year license to all the Aura applications for $9.95.
