flv in virtualdub help

[some dude]

I am using virtualdubmod 1.5.10.2, I used flvextract to demux a flv file into an avi and mp3, I try to load the avi in to virtualdub and I get

[!] Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'FLV1' (unknown).
VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatible codec to
decompress video. DirectShow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media
Player, are not suitable. Only 'Direct stream copy' is available for this
video.

But I have ffdshow installed and enabled for flv1 and the avi plays fine in wmp11, what am I doing wrong?

You need to enable FLV1 decoding in the Video for Windows options, not the DirectShow options, in FFDshow.

Instead of using an outdated and discontinued fork, why not use up-to-date VirtualDub (http://www.virtualdub.org/) with FLV input plugin (http://www.moitah.net/download/latest/FLV_Input_Driver.zip)?

This way you don't need to demux the FLV file and you get all the VirtualDub improvements/fixes of the last four years ;)

(Note that Dark Shikari's advice still applies to latest VirtualDub with FLV input plugin)
