    It's starting to piss me off...[flash]

    I've been having a problem with flash for the last.... year or so now that I cannot shake. Everytime I make an animation/intro for a webpage it has 3 different speeds. The different speeds I speak of are in relation to how the animation is played.

    Typically when I test my animation I just hit f12 and I view it in Internet Explorer. Everything appears to be fine and I just work with that.

    Now when I test my animation in Firefox, the animation lags behind bigtime. It seems as if it has lost 20~fps. On the other hand, if I test my file just as an swf everything is lightning fast. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is this a known problem? All I know is it is really starting to irritate me because I cannot line up music/sounds with animations when the timing is different in every which way you play the file.

    Resize your footer or it will be removed for you.

    Max size is:
    300x40 pixels, [b]14kb[b], or up to five lines of text.

    If you are confused, please read the FAQ

    What is the size of your flash file?

    I recommend you post an example of one of these files that are creating this problem. I think it might just be the render time of the flash file in the different platforms of your PC. We can test it and tell you if we see any change in FPS too.

    Even if you choose to stream it instead of just start or play it? (lays the music out on the tracks. I think it is impossible for it to get out of sync because each section of sound is bound to the frame it's over. Don't )
