Syntax
The Flash Video extension use the tag to add a List of Video-Files that should be displayed in the Wiki. The flv-Files are external files. If the Video Files contain Cue Points, those are displayed and offered for navigation.

You need to install create wiki-video-player.swf to use this, so you need the commercial software Flash!

The flv-Tag takes several attributes and contains one line for each flv-file:

 first.flv|First things first second.flv|Second to none third.flv|Third time's a charm


 * Use the base attribute if all your flv-files are contained in one folder
 * the title attribute will be displayed bottom left on the player
 * each line inside the flv-tag consists of:
 * the URL or filename of the flv-files
 * the title of the movie (will be displayed top left in the player)
 * the title of the movie (will be displayed top left in the player)

Installation
You need to drop flv.php into your extensions-folder, and place  inside LocalSettings.php.
