FLV plays locally, not remotely?

I have a quicktime video i outputted from Final Cut Pro that I am trying to host on my site as an flv. The flv video created by Riva FLV converter plays just fine locally using Riva player, but when I publish it to my site it only plays the first second and then stops and pretends it is loading (though the progressbar shows it is fully loaded already).

This happens with two different swf players so it isn't a player issue. I'm guessing it has something to do with the file as it is a 2 minute long news piece with a lot of cuts to drastically different images in the whole video; I know the FLV perfers videos that have more continuity.

So has anyone run into this before and know how to fix it?
