there is a sound effect on flashkit called ting-public-D35 or sumit like that neway… when i include it into a flash document, flash manipulates it. the source is noticeably different from what flash plays - im not very good at musical stuff but it sounds a bit like the quality is reduced, the levels are changed (specially towards the end) and it seems to be slower as well… i tried making a whole new document with nothing but a simple elipse masqurading as a button to initiate the sound with the appropriate code to initialise it on the first and only frame… same result… why is that? how can i get it to stop doing it and play it like Windows Media Player does? cheers, Prophet.
