Well they have very good documentation, check this page: http://flowplayer.org/demos/installation/index.html

First you need to include the js library:


http://flowplayer.org/demos/installation/index.html

Then setup player container:


<a 
    href="http://vod01.netdna.com/vod/demo.flowplayer/flowplayer-700.flv" 
    style="display:block;width:425px;height:300px;" 
    id="player"> 
</a>

And finally, initialize the flowplayer:


<script language="JavaScript"> 
flowplayer("player", "path/to/the/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf"); 
</script>

I am trying out the player, in the list of supported formats it has mp4 which kind of worked but without sound. I converted my mp4 file into swf but the quality was awful. So I am going to convert my mp4 into flv and see how that works.

From a user standpoint, I prefer JW Player over flowplayer, you might want to check that one out as well.
