Hey all,

I'm having a weird issue, wondering if anyone's ever seen this:

I'm streaming an f4v from FMS 3.5. I play the stream, then immediately pause to start buffering. Then unpause it at a later point.

This is working just fine (yes, I'm using Flash Player 10, so smart pause is enabled). BUT if I set the bufferTime property before pausing it, the pause triggers the buffer to flush out. It's a strange thing.

An unrelated issue is that when I leave bufferTime set to its default .1 seconds, the NetStream.Buffer.Full event doesn't fire until a full 2 seconds are loaded. I'm confused.

Thanks!

Finally figured this one out. This problem happens only when I format my filename is "mp4:filename.f4v", which is how the Flash documentation says to format it. But when I just format it as "filename", with no extension or prefix, everything is fine.
