advance frame-by-frame on a streaming video

Hi,

i've recently installed Wowza media server 2 locally, currently only for testing purposes.

everything works fine, except of accurate seeking functionality - or in other words advancing frame-by-frame .

when i use VLC to play my video file i have no problems advancing frame-by-frame.  however, when i use the 'seek()' function to move the playhead a fraction of a second, its seems to move only to the next key frame (meaning that only once every few mouse clicks the playhead advances dramatically).

i thought that when using streaming video (unlike progressive download) this issue is resolved.  am i wrong?  did i miss something?

thanks in advance,

eRez

    II think you should post your query on Wowza forums - because this forum is for Flash Media Server and probably not best place where you can find Wowza server experts.
