Hi Dark, I was hoping for a little more info on what you said here:

Im using wowza with streaming and also the dual buffering technique where you set 2 buffering values on the flash player (2,10) and the first value is the initial buffer before the video starts, and the 2nd value is what it will buffer in the background while the video is playing or paused.

So would it be a good idea to set the buffer size *2, *10, or somewhere in the middle. Also, what is the harm in setting this too high.

Thanks
