The video must be "Indexed" for the player to offer seek functionality such as FF / RW Do I assume correctly that I could remake it with FF/search with Windows media encoder? No, you don't need to re-encode it. In the encoder utilities directory, find the windows media file editor program Open the video in that, then just "Save as and Index" from the File menu Cheers - Neil ------------------------------------------------ Digital Media MVP : 2004-2007 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/mvpfaqs |
