"I have some FLV videos downloaded online. Now I would like to transfer these FLV videos to my iPhone 6. I know that iPhone 6 doesn't accept FLV format. How could I play FLV videos on iPhone 6? Do I need to convert FLV to iPhone compatible formats like MP4 or MOV on my Mac? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks."
