Question

Streaming only a portion of a flv

I am trying to set up a flv player which will play only a portion of a flv file from a streaming server. The file is a lengthy file, and I want two things: 1) to have a player which can play and seek through the whole thing (this is working) and 2) to have a player in which I can load a specific segment of the entire file. Then the seek bar would be limited so that the viewer cannot seek outside of the specified range.
Does anyone have advice on how to approach this?
Thank you!

    In the play method you can set at what time you want the FLV to start and how long you want it to play. Other than that, you're going to have to make your scrubber understand how many seconds it needs to account for, then when clicked or scrubbed along it should seek in the FLV to the offset amount of time plus the time they seeked to on the scrubber bar.
