Video downloading programs are a dime a dozen on the internet. The real battle is between the poor and not so useful programs and those still fighting to make a difference in the sea of similar software. With FLV Downloader Pro, an app whose name does not need further explaining, it's hard to position it in either of the two camps. On one side it works very fast and allows users to grab audio or video in just minutes, on the other, it lacks that special something.

The most important feature, not to be mistaken for unique, is the fact that you can so easily download online videos from various sources. YouTube, Facebook, Dailymotion are just three of the many areas where you could hunt for videos or audio files to download. As far as audio is concerned, you get a video to MP3 converter, basically. The videos can also be converted to many formats, including but not limited to MP4, WMV, MOV, AVI, MPG, OGV, and VCD.

Now, a feature most applications might not have is the ability to preview downloaded videos before these actually finish. This is especially useful if you want to make sure what you are downloading is the right thing. As far as functionality is concerned, the app does deliver. There are no stutters and definitely no crashes. On the other hand, it simply isn't that innovative.

There are plenty of programs that do the same thing so there is little to recommend this app specifically for downloading videos. With some options being even free, unless you are a fan of the brand or consider that this product works better than what you currently have, there is no reason to try this application specifically. Any such app will probably do for most users.

FLV Downloader Pro is a well-working application with enough features to live up to its name, but unfortunately with very little in terms of innovation or uniqueness. This means that there is little to recommend this specific app for downloading videos. It's not the best and it's not the worst. Put in simple terms, it's an overall average application.
