streaming video and preloading. choppy playback of video

ive got a flash 8 presentation made for the web with some streaming video going on inside of it.

the main swf has a preloader, on playback on the web, about half the time im getting reports of choppy playback (vid and aud) of the video component... the video component is an flv file coming down as a progressive downloaded stream from the server

is there anything that i can do in my swf to help give this flv some extra buffer time? any help on this would be great. thanks guys

If you're using the FLVPlayback cvomponent, just set the bufferTime property:

You might try dropping the bit rate your video is encoded at as well...
