Re: [Flashcoders] Seek bar not working with FLVPlayback Component?

From the article Sam links to: Navigation cue points are used for navigation and seeking, and to trigger ActionScript methods when the cue point is reached. Embedding a navigation cue point inserts a keyframe at that point in the video clip to enable viewers to seek to that point in the video.

Re: [Flashcoders] Seek bar not working with FLVPlayback Component?

You can't. Setting cue points for time based navigation inserts a key frame. You can only seek to key frames. It's all covered in that article, specifically: Specify the type of cue point you want to embed. You can embed either a navigation or event cue point. * Event cue points are used to

Re: [Flashcoders] Seek bar not working with FLVPlayback Component?

From what I can see TS the issue isn't cue points but keyframes. As in, there are none in your FLV except one at the start and one at the end. FlashPlayer can only seek to an actual key frame, hence the behaviour you are seeing. AFAIK, the only solution to the issue is to re-encode the video, this

Re: [Flashcoders] Batch wrapping a bunch of FLV files in SWFs

The accuracy is pretty much dependant on the density of keyframes in your FLV, as you can only seek to a timecode with a keyframe. This though is absolutely accurate. If your FLVs are of any lenght, and if they have audio, you are likely to run into difficulties wrapping them in a SWF. Pete
