I am using Flash 8 to encode flvs from one minute movs on a Mac with 10.3.9.

If I create flvs using Sorenson Squeeze, the flvs made from movs play back completely. However, if I encode flvs from the same movs, the flvs stop playing about 3/4 of the way through the flv.

I have worked with the same development process on Windows in Flash 8 and have not run into this problem. I want to be able to create the flvs with Flash 8 to enable the in file cue point capability of Flash 8.

Any suggestions on a solution?

Thanks!
