Here’s the quick and dirty:

\*FlvPlayback component on stage.  
\*List comp on stage with rtmp stream addresses

When user clicks list item, code calls ‘myPlayer.source = inserted rtmp address’ and then ‘play()’.

Everything works fine. BUT…

when video starts, it stops for a half-second and then starts playing.

I’ve traced about everything and everythings just firing once like its supposed to.

Tracing VideoEvent.state shows this:

Loading  
Stopped  
Buffering  
Playing  
Buffering  
Playing

Then video plays fine. This happens evertime a list item is selected.

Is this a bug or actually how it works behind the scenes ? This is connecting to Flash Media Server 3 if it means anything.

Thanks in advance.

I have a similar list program, and just have the user hit play when they choose their movie clip from the list.

Not exactly what I wish it to do, but I will try that to see if it clears up the problem. Stay tuned…

Interesting bit I found.

I tried that method, but still did the same thing. BUT… I did find something out. The only ones that are doing this are .mp4 files. The FLVs that are streaming from the same server only buffer and play once without the hiccup. Remember these are streaming from a RTMP server and not progressive.
