that's not very extraordinaire, since Gem mostly uses frontend libraries
for decoding (if installed: QuickTime, libquicktime, libavifile,
libgermlin_avdec, DirectShow,...), which themselves have a
plugin-architecture to be able to open multiple formats either directly
or by calling backend libraries (e.g. ffmpeg).

if anything in this chain supports flv, then Gem will be play flv as well.

so far i have found that gmerlin is one of the most fullfeatured and
stable decoding libraries. that's why i encourage it's use, but this is
not to say that other libs aren't great as well.
