Hello<br><br>I have asked this question many times in various fora and the answer seems to be that the points only work with *real* streaming servers - otherwise cuepoints are essential. Don' t know if this helps, but I kind of despair with this as it is critical for the sorts of things I try to do. The only ray of sunshine in this scenario is to construct something with VLC which seems to work with both local and remote media (when it actually calculates the seekpoints correctly). I suspect it works because VCL is a streamer itself - not sure if it works with FLV files - it does work with mp4/mpg.<br>
<br>Hope this helps a bit - at least that is my experience of something I would love to be able to do.<br><br>Cheers<br>Andrew Lian<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jan 4, 2011 at 05:31, Dave Burnett <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:d_b_burnett@hotmail.com">d_b_burnett@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
