i’ve created a site using flash mx and inside it i have a downloads section where you can watch video and hear audio. the problem is that video doesn’t play properly. it only plays a few seconds of the video. when i first set it up it played the whole thing with no problems. so im wondering if there is a way to stream the video clip in flash.  
heres the address if you would like to see for yourself. [www.atlifesend.com](http://www.atlifesend.com)  
look under the downloads button.

Hi I’ve just visit your site and see the video. Which format you used to embedd the video into flash. Most probably the frame rate of the movie and flash movie frame rate is not synchronised. That is the problem i guess. When u r importing video into flash you’ll be promoted to adjust the frame rate. Make it as default setting. Moreover it’s a good practive to attach video to a movieclip or load as an external SWF file, otherwise it takes lot of memory in the end user machine. The net result will be the poor downloading speed and performance. U can user attachMovie() or loadMovie () method to accomplish this. In macromedia’s site [http://www.macromedia.com](http://www.macromedia.com) lot of tutuorials available to add video into your site.

i used the load movie script for the video. they are seperate MC’s. i also set the framerate the same when i imported the video as well as setting the audio to low quality. im starting to think that i have to much info for the server to handle, the swf files for the videos average around 8mb and they are all around 30 sec.:puzzled:
