Guys i am 5 seconds old here so first of all i just want to say WHAT"S UP!!! :thumb:

when i load my swf from an external source with loadMovieNum(the swf is actually on a different server all together). it plays it a whole lot slower. Has that ever happened to you. do you know how to work around that?
