Why Surface 2 suddenly stopped playing/supporting Flash video with flv/f4v file type?

Can't get Flash videos to Surafce 2 for playback on the go? Now find the easiest way in this article to convert Flash (FLV/F4V) to Surafce 2 supported videos.
Love them or hate them, Microsoft’s new Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2 tablets might not be the slimmest on the market, but they’re a whole lot more portable than this 27ft wide and 17ft tall Surface 2 has just touched down in Trafalgar Square in London. We’re happy to report that battery life has been improved with the Surface 2, also it’s packing an even faster processor and higher resolution screen and it is definitely great to enjoy videos on Surafce 2 with 1080p resolution.



However, Surafce 2 does not support Flash yet. This makes users who want to play downloaded FLV/F4V videos on this Windows 8.1 Tablet: "I want to play flash video on Surface 2, can I install adobe flash player from the Windows Store for this Windows 8.1 RT Tablet?"

Adobe Flash is the technology that makes some video files and websites not work with Windows 8.1 devices, it is hard to find an app to see flash-only or flash-heavy videos and websites.
