FLV streaming doesn't play smoothly

[cluthi]

Until the whole movie is downloaded, the display rate is about 1 or 2 frame(s) per second :-( Once the download is completed, the movie plays smoothly.

You can try this big trailer to try:  http://a69.g.akamai.net/n/69/31971/v1/mediaplayer.allocine.fr/nmedia/18/36/26/41/18704950_fa1_hd.flv

Quite a stupid question: is this easy to fix ? Does anyone know what direction to look in order to fix this issue ?

I'm not sure what component I must assign, so I tried ffmpeg.

This just copies the same system of avoiding the redraw that causes the low framerate from the Matroska importer. Also, increases idle frequency to as fast as possible for local media, should still be once every half second for streamed sources.

That works really fine, thanks! Is it going to be included in the trunk sooner or later ?

(In [461]) When idle importing, only add samples to the track if the movie is paused unless necessary. Also speed up idle importing of local files considerably. Closes #143
