    I have not used Flowplayer but is there a way to find bandwidth between client and server using Bandwidth API's which FMS & AS provides - now before using any server you can do quick check and server which returns connection in minimum time and has better bandwidth and then choose that server. I think some delay uprfront is much better in terms of usablity than constant buffering.
