Hi Paul, Thank you for your reply.
> Just how can you play a sound slowly without altering the pitch? Thanks, I overlooked this important implementation detail. Keep a separate swf with the sound recorded slowly but with lowered pitch. The video player loads both the video swf (with regular sound) and the sound-only swf file (with slow sound). Then, when the slow button is clicked, play the video swf slowly with no sound, and simultaneously play the sound-only swf file at a synchronized location. Maybe this would work with the flv solution so long as the sound-only file is kept in swf format or in flv but streamed through a flash media server instance, so that seeking could be done to non-keyframe locations.
