[flashpro] Weird trouble with MediaDisplay

[pete otaqui]

I have absolutely no experience with this stuff, but might it be
something to do with keyframes in your video?  Most video formats can
only "skip" to a keyframe.  You can see this for yourself by dragging
any video player's scrubber around on a highly compressed /
low-keyframe video.

cheers
