I've done a lot of that. The problem is that the new video track you 
switch to has to go back to its previous key frame, and build up the 
current frame, all the time trying to deal with a still playing 
movie. You can reduce any problems a lot by pausing the movie while 
you do the switch, giving it some time to get its act together before 
playing it again, or/and you could make the key frames more frequent. 
If you're using Sorenson, you may find that the key frame spacing was 
set to be quite wide apart, because Sorenson is often used for web 
video, where infrequent key frames may help to keep the file size 
down. Try setting the key frames every one or two seconds, and also 
pause the movie as you switch tracks.
