Hello Kirupa users!

I was wondering about a problem, I built a video player by-the-book, and used another video player, fPlayer2 by [goker (http://as3flvplayer.sourceforge.net/](http://goker.cebeci.name)),

but booth of then sometimes does not play when first asked to play a video for first time. And Its not stream thing, I guess. Testing in my machine (not on the web) is where this event most occurs.

Someone knows why?
