      Adobe Flash is NOT a standalone player. It's necessary to display web sites' flash content, only.
      To play standalone flv file, you need standalone player (check my previous reply).

      Media Player Classic can play .swf file perfectly.
      http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli

      Or view it in your web browser if you have installed Adobe Flash Player.
      It can! Wow, I didn't know that. Nice.
