Hi,

I have a recorded FLV stream that I started recording several hours after the live video stream started.

I used Jaksta (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Jaksta-Streaming-Media%20Recorder-and-Converter.htm) to record the FLV stream. I can play the FLV in Applian FLV Player successfully but it starts the play head at the 5:52:42 mark which is how far into the stream I started recording.

I go to "Fix FLV" in Jaksta and the file contents are as follows: The first twenty or so video/audio packets have time 0 and then it jumps to time 4381554 (which I assume is 5:52:42 or thereabouts).

If I "fix time" with 15 as the time interval, the result is good but the video is slightly too fast, and the audio is out of sync. Is there a way to offset the start time of the video to 4381554 instead of 0 and also to throw away those initial packets with time 0.

Has anyone else encountered a similar issue?

I saw that this thread (http://stream-recorder.com/forum/fixing-flv-files-live-stream-recordings-fix-t8085.html) covers the use of Fix FLV as well. Does anyone know how to pick a good number other than 15 if 15 doesn't produce a good result?

Thank you for that link. It encouraged me to play around with timing of the keyframes. Is there a way to determine the total number of keyframes in that list? This would make the calculation in your link easier.
