I’m using the flvplayback component to play files on a CD. There are 6 FLV’s between 20-60mb each (320x240) and they total approx. 2 hours of footage. Problem is when I seek (scrub) playback it takes several seconds or more to catch up. Performance improves when I set to lower quality, but still too slow to respond to scrubbing. Ideas on getting better performance? I’ve seen websites that respond instantaneously when you scrub… why the problem off a CD?

I would like to continue to us FLVplayback component since everything is coded to this (cuepoints set to trigger slides changing, buttons, etc.) Please help! Project needs to go our Monday.
