I am getting this error "No flash player has been set up. Please select a player to play Flash videos." when I try to view a node with a video in it. Strangely it works in chrome but when I view the node in Internet Explorer 8 I get this error!

I have gone to the video player setting and have flowplayer set (I had to install this, it wasn't initially installed) but no luck... any thoughts?

Cheers

You must set up a player for the flv extension. The reason you're getting this message in IE8 is that IE8 doesn't support the HTML5 <video> tag. Flash is used as a fall-back. Alternatively, you can use JW Player or Video.js. They have a Flash fallback built-in.
