FLV Player to allow scrubbing forward?

Hey everyone. Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on playing FLV video on a website. I'm currently using JW player and it works great. The only problem is people can't scrub forward past w开发者_运维知识库hat is cached.

For instance... i want to click on the video and immediately click half way through it to start playing in the middle of the video. Can this be done with JW player, or do you suggest another FLV player?

Thanks!

This is called streaming.

Normally, you would need a RTMP server such as Flash Media Server or the open-source counterpart Red5.

There is a way to fake streaming using HTTP though. You could install a module on your webserver such as Apache or Lighttpd that will allow you to jump forward when you click in your media player.

For your media player, JW Player, you can check how to enable the streaming via RTMP or HTTP.
