Betreff: Re: [Flashcoders] reverse play FLV?

You can't play an flv backwards because of the way it is encoded. A video
consists of sequencial compressed images. If you jump to a frame, the
decoder has to collect an I-frame (a complete image) and walk through
B-frames (partial images containing only changed eareas) to accumulate
frames until it has reached your selected frame.
Understandably, that requires some performance.

If you'd like to play in reverse you'll have 2 options: create another flv
from reverse footage and play that one instead, or create an image sequence
of loose images and put them in a mc. Now you can build controls that play
through the mc (or swf) in any direction or speed you wish.
