When streaming a live stream, if you hide the browser window/tab (e.g. by going to a different tab or minimizing the browser) - where the live stream is playing in

and then after awhile you go back to it - then everything that "happened" in the live stream since the window was hidden -  is played back in fast motion until it reaches to the "live point".

How can I cancel this functionality?

I'm assuming this relates to the 'smart seeking' functionality described here, however, even when I set the following:

ns.bufferTime = 0;

nsbufferTimeMax = 0;

ns.backBufferTime = 0;

ns.inBufferSeek = false;

ns.maxPauseBufferTime = 0;

on the receiving side - this still happens.

Any way of canceling it out completely?

This is probably because of "Buffered stream catch-up " feature..

Read more about bufferTimeMax property in document : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/beta/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/NetStream.html to know more about this.

This is completly Flash player enabled feature.
