no, flv is the file format for a flash video. There are no timeline controls at the bottom of a flv file. You can play any flv using the standard video object that comes with flash. However, you can also play it using the timeline controls which is what you are referring to. Check the tutorial links I sent and you’ll get a better idea.
Navigation is different with video files though. You can only navigate to keyframes. However, you can place keyframes as needed.
