First you need to understand how it works. .swf IS THE PLAYER. The feed it needs comes from .flv
Putting it simply. You take a (let's say) .wmv (video) encode it to a .flv, then you make a .swf that will play a .flv video.
What you are seeing is the still frame of a .flv. If it's not playing it is because you don't have the correct feed from a .flv. All this programming to make a .flv work with a .swf happens inside the .swf.
The reason people are now using this system is because. You can't take it unless you know all of the correct addresses and it makes smaller files that are clearer and play better. Now some places place "embed" codes that you can copy and use on your site. It they don't it is almost impossible to rip off.
You can get the .flv file from sites, but without a swf maker. You'll never will be able to play it.
(I bet you have no clue what I just said)
