I installed the driver from here
http://home.comcast.net/~fcchandler/Plugin.../FLV/index.html

,but when I tried to load the video.flv , it said "missing codec."

I never had this problem for other video such as wmv , or vob , so why is .flv making such problems ?

Because in FLV video is encoded in other formats - FLV1/H.263 or FLV4/VP6F or H.264/AVC - and you do not have installed VfW codecs for them.

You can use ffdshow VfW to decode these vid's (go to ffdshow video encoder config and Decoder tab). As well as for H.264/AVC can use x264vfw.
Also, to decode AAC audio you need AAC ACM Codec.

I have ffdshow installed , but not sure if I set it correctly,

So once its set correctly , virtualdub should be able to play it , right ?

=================================

Ok , I found it , you were right , it was disabled !! , I enabled it now , here -
