Is it possible to place an indicator on the flowplayer timeline when an Ad will play for mid-roll ads?
Most players, Hulu, ABC etc to this. I think it'll be useful to prevent surprising the user with an ad.

Sorry. I clicked send too soon before I could tag this appropriately.

One more comment. I'm curious to understand how much work this would be. As I wouldn't mind implementing this myself if it came to that.

Yeh, this would be a really nice feature. I've been wondering about it myself.
At the least it would require a custom control bar to support the new graphics that are used to represent the ad points... if someone can give me some pointers about how best to represent the ads on the FP control bar and a way to do that without a custom control bar, I'd like to implement it as well...

Awesome! So when do you plan to look into this. If I can steal some cycles, I plan to actually evaluate this starting from next week. Let me know. :)
