Hi Friends,

I am having a problem with play() method of a MediaDisplay component. When I say myMedia.play(2) …video starts at 4 seconds instead of 2 seconds.

In my application I have links to play video at several cuepoints…upon clicking any link video should start play from that cuepoint but it start playing few seconds later than given second.

If anybody has come across this issue…or have a solution to this please reply back.

Thanks

are you trying to set the buffer time to two seconds?

myNetStream.setBufferTime(2);
