That is for V5 only. Please read the guide I provided you above again, it’s different for JW6.

If you are using JW5, then use this – http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/jw-player-for-flash-v5/12534/video-delivery-http-pseudo-streaming

I followed that guide and added

provider:'http',
'http.startparam':'0',

but when I click on the timebar the video starts again from the beginning...

‘http.startparam’:‘0’,

Is wrong

It should be:

‘http.startparam’:‘starttime’,

I made them work following this

http://tperspective.blogspot.it/2009/02/apache-flv-streaming-done-right.html

but when someone is streaming it creates LOT of php and httpd processes that slow the server down, how can I fix that ?

Glad you got it. I don’t think those requests can be avoided.

if a video has no metadata and pseudostreaming is enabled it plays again from beginning, why ?

That is expected, the video need to have it in order to be seeked properly.

I have more than 1000 videos but not everyone have meta data, I thought of write a php script in order to inject them if they haven't, do you know what tool I need to check metadata?
