[font=Arial]Hello,

I am attempting to create an elearning program with text that highlights when narrated. The text highlighting is an animation that I have timed to sync. with the voice over.

Unfortuently the voice over starts a few seconds after the the text highlighting animation - it is out of sync. I am certain this has something to do with download difference bbetween the MP3 and the swf.

Can I force the animation to wait for the MP3?

What other options are available?

Please have a look at the problem I am having:
