macromedia flash flashcom: Hi All,

First time poster. I was wondering if anyone knows why enhanced seek using
netstream (ns.play) method doesn't seem to work?

For example I want to play a sample clip starting at 15 second mark and for
length of only 20 seconds I should be able to use this.

ns.play("some_video",15,20);

and I find it works perfectly fine on sparc codec (immediate playback) but
with VP6 it's just blank for about 15 seconds then it starts to play. It's
almost like it actually is playing from the 0s mark but doesn't show anything
until 15 seconds have elapsed.

So I decided to play around a bit with using ns.seek and ns.play and
discovered this.

ns.play("some_video",0,35);
ns.seek(15);

so it seems by doing this it will play from the 15s mark and end at the 35s
mark.
it works well enough, just wondering if anyone knows why it won't work with
the first example?

Regards,

Adam Walsworth

Functionality for support of enhanced seek has been patched into FMS2
