Native support for FLVs and SWFs

Users with Flash player version 9 or higher can now playback self-contained FLV and SWF files natively in Wiredrive Library and Projects. This update means that Perian, a third-party plugin, is no longer required to playback Flash-based files through QuickTime. Additionally, the Flash player has a built-in full-screen mode, so Internet Explorer users reviewing self-contained FLVs and SWFs can fit files to fill their displays. Note that you cannot currently add FLVs to video reels for sequential playback.
