Thanks. I guess I didn't look hard enough.
It seems that the player is getting the values from the database, but the values are in the wrong format. They should be in [i]0x[/i]FFFFFF format, rather than [i]#[/i]FFFFFF format:

If I edit the database with the correct format, the player changes the colors fine, but not with the current format. I'm using 1.2.6 and player v3, by the way.
Also, I think there's a typo in "flvplayer.php" on line 151 that prevents the "frontcolor" loading:
`so.addVariable("frontcolor","'.getOption('flv_player_frontkcolor').'");`
Is that "k" an error in "'flv_player_frontkcolor'?
Thanks,
Richard
