Just a little clean up here... I figured out why the video was distorted. When playing an FLV inside a player that has a width and height smaller than the FLV's default sizes, you must set the video.smoothing property to true. If you are using a player component that does not expose the video object, you have to go into the component's source somehow or build your own player. I chose the latter and had success.
