themovieid.seek(2) just doesn't seem to do boo.
Although it does trip an onMovieSeek event, which is supposed to mean it is finished seeking.

Tried stopping/pausing prior to calling it and nothing.
Tried putting it below a button to be sure the flv was loaded prior to call.
Tried removing the controls, no stream, etc.
Nothing.

Maybe the cue points are de rigeur?
e.g. won't do anything with a time index?
Anyone have it working with a time index?

Under the hood is the FLVPlayback component, which you can access directly if needed. The user controls just access what you can access, so I'm not sure it makes any odds: you might want to call stop() before seeking, not sure.

Use seek to jump to a particular point.

You can use addASCuePoint to set up an event at a particular point on the movie's timeline and handle onASCuePoint to pause / stop / reset the movie

Anyone have a template or hints on controlling which slice of an flv to show?

I have flvs that are used in multiple places, just using different segments.

Figure it uses seek and stop, but I'm sure I'll be re-inventing something, like when to determine it's OK to use seek, what's the effect if the clip is also under user control etc.

Happy New Year all!
