Update: I then went to another file type to clear out the preview, and went back to the FLV in Raw View, switched to preview, and told "ffdshow" yes this time, and...I got working VIDEO! :? Huh? What difference did that seq make?

Update #2: Exited out of XY, restarted it, selected the problem FLV file, and told 'ffdshow' yes, and it worked just fine...weird...I'm confused!
Wow. The wonders of Windows... :)

Yea! Anyway, I just also saw this old thread in yet another products forum that seems to have been resolved via similar methods (ffdshow + FLVSplitter updates)...http://forum.inmatrix.com/lofiversion/i ... t5542.html
and this similar one also:
http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/03/06/down ... -hard-way/

Both have ffdshow and FLVSplitter.av as required modules for these type of files.
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.
