flv-Videos stop when I use the slide control.

I have the following Problem:

When playing a flv-Video, it stops when I use the slide control. This doesn't happen with other videofiles.

I have the newest version of the VLC-mediaplayer (0.8.6d) and the newest WIN XP with all updates. It also happened with version 0.8.6a.

Does anybody know a solution?

Thanks for help.

I too am experiencing this issue. I downloaded an FLV file from a website (tried many different sites/FLVs too...all do this) - when I use the seek bar, the video immediately closes...so the only way to really "seek" is to use the "Play Faster" and then slow it down when I get to the point I intended to seek to :)

On a side-note...

While registering and signing here, I had the video playing in "play faster" mode, and NOW I am able to seek - sorta....I can seek to any location that VLC has already "played" - but if I seek any further (to an area that hasnt been played) - the video closes.

Any ideas? :) I'm using 0.8.6d on Windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit on a "Standard"/normal user account.

Have you tried nightly builds?

no i have not, but I could - if they don't require any compiling or anything :) Where can they be downloaded from?

Thanks for the quick reply btw ;)

Edit: something I just thought of....I dont know if it would matter or not, but I am using "Windows Classic" Themes/Colors (and not Aero or whatever) in Vista Home Basic 32bit. I dont know if that would matter or not though...

Here are the nightlies: http://nightlies.videolan.org/

I don't believe that the skin you are using is going to effect the playback of flv files but VLC has had some known issues in handling this format.
