Hello!

I have a little sound player on a site of mine. Basically just a play button that loadmovies a swf. The swf contains an imported MP3, set to stream.

When I click the button that loadmovies the swf in the main movie, the audio plays but everything goes really slow!

Any idea’s on what i’m doing wrong? If i set the external file to not stream, it doesnt lag, but doesnt play the audio until the entire movie is loaded…

Thanks for any help,

PS: Anyone got any tips on writing a site disclaimer?

Cheers

b/c it slows down your movie to the speed of the frames in the stream movie. why? i guess so your sound will play correctly.

a posible problem could be the khz. Flash only knows up to 44 khz so if you have a loop at more then 44 khz it will automaticly slow it down to 44 khz.Anyway try to use wav’s instead of mp3’s becouse flash compress them better.
