Streaming Mp3's

programming flash
1

Hi,

I have an mp3 that I sent to my server and was attempting to stream into my Flash movie, which worked, but for some reason the mp3 is being played much faster than it should be.

Does anyone know what would cause this to happen? I was thinking maybe it was one of the export settings or perhaps it was altered somehow when I loaded it to the server.

I appreciate any help,

Check your export settings compared to how you originally encoded the file. Stuff like that usually happens because of something called “resampling.”

Your original file was probably encoded into a different sampling rate.

prstudio,

Thanks, you were absolutly right, I got it playing correctly now.

But now I have another question. Is there any way to command Flash to download part of a streaming mp3 before begining playback?

Thanks for any help!
