	AS far as I know, there is no stand-alone player.  
	Foe use with SeaMonkey (and presumably FireFox), the magic
components are:

huff@>> dir /var/db/pkg | grep flas
drwxr-xr-x    2 root  wheel       512 Jun 16 07:45 linux-f10-flashplugin-10.1r53
huff@>> dir /var/db/pkg | grep splug
drwxr-xr-x    2 root  wheel       512 Jul  2 07:59 nspluginwrapper-1.2.2_7
