Hello,

I’m trying to stream a .flv from my host which is godaddy and it is supper Skippy. Is there something I need to tell them to do to make it play smoother. Or is there another service provider I should be looking at. Or some other way of streaming. Also what is the largest file size I should try to stream? I see QuickTime HD movie trailers all the time and they stream beautifully and there super large sometimes 120mb :huh:

Thank you,  
Kate
