R – FLVPlayback won’t seek when streaming from flash media server. How to fix

actionscript-3flash-media-serverflvplaybackstreaming

I have a simple video player set up that streams from a flash media server. The video plays fine, but the majority of the seek commands send it back to the first frame of the video. If I don't use flash media server it will seek to any point which has already been loaded.

Any ideas what could cause this?

Best Solution

Try and download jw player from here http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/ and test if it works with that player. The problem could lay with the streaming server.

the majority of the seek commands send it back to the first frame

What happens with the rest? - Do they work or does nothing happen?
