Here's Client for FLV in action, with notes from me:
When started, there's no obvious way to get your FLV videos into the app, but a little digging reveals that it's looking on devices in the \Videos folder, so I did some downloading and dragging and dropping across from a Windows PC. Windows 10 complains, like you knew it would, thinking that you won't be able to play the files. I chose 'just copy' and all was well.
And lo and behold, one 'refresh' later and there were my new FLV video files. Here's the About screen, it does seem to have got an update this year, at least, and works well with Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 10 Mobile.
Playback is surprisingly smooth and you can scrub along the timeline - which is some achievement for the horrifically non-linear format that is Flash Video!
Of course, the source material is usually 240p or similar, so don't expect the earth. But still, it works and if you have an old archive of .flv files, now there's a reason to load them onto your phone!
At the time of writing, this is free, but the offer won't last much longer (it's part of a myAppFree deal), so grab it now etc.
