Show .flv files when looking for videos

Issue #409 wontfix
Former user created an issue

Currently, if you go to select a video file through browsing (to play when a game is selected), .flv is not one of the file types that are listed as "video files", however if you select "all files" and then choose a .flv file, it will still work. Can .flv be listed as a video file extension? It'd save a few clicks every time.

    Thanks, Michael. Only issue there is the video player won't play the FLV files by default (you have to manually add a codec for it). So that could introduce confusion, unfortunately. So honestly not really sure what would be best in order to smooth that out.

    Okay, not a big deal, just wondering. I realize that people having to download prerequisites before installing launchbox would be a bit of a hassle.

    Yeah, though I understand that gets annoying. Just don't have a good solution for it really, so I'm gonna close this out.
