[PD] Playing .flv files

[Kyle Klipowicz]

FYI, FLV has two different codecs associated with it right now:
Sorensen Spark (Flash 7 player) and On2 TrueMotion VP6, which requires
Flash 8 and above.

This is also in the Wikipedia entry though, but I thought I'd
reiterate it here for discussion purposes.

Does ffmpeg convert to the Sorensen or On2 VP6 version of FLV?
