i am using this script on frame 1 to control playback of an FLV.

rwnd\_btn.onPress = function(){  
rewindMovie();};  
function rewindMovie() {  
netStream.seek (netStream.time - 5);  
netStream.play();  
}  
rewindMovie();

the rwnd\_btn just pauses the FLV and doesnt do anything else.

i have also tried using other actions like netStream.time + 5 and netStream.close and nothing seems to affect my streaming FLV.

i havent tested it on the net - this has all be local - would that matter?
