vlc media player

Is there somewhere on VLC Media Player that one can go and choose what types of media files VLC will play? I've looked under preferences but I cannot see it.

No, it does open in my browser and it plays fine. But I want to remove it from there and save it to my computer and just play it randomly when I want to.

I usually just save the flash video to my hard drive and then use my browser to open it. But, if you don't want to do that, I get that. I just looked in VLC (Tools << Preferences << Interface << Association Setup) and it doesn't play swf files - unless I looked over it, but I'm pretty sure I didn't. So, I googled and I found this which is a flash-only player.
