Flash Movie slowing down rest of site

[juletools]

Hi There

I'm looking for any help on the following problem I'm experiencing with a Flash Movie (banner style movie) at the top of a web page I'm designing. The movie is only 13k but is a looping text glint effect. What I'm finding is that when it is running the rest of the site is considerably slower - notably javascript rollovers and drop-down menus that I also have in the page.

Can anyone suggest what I may be doing wrong with the Flash movie?

Many thanks in advance
Jules

Well, probably the effect you are using take lot's of memory which might have slower the CPU speed of the computer u are using... and so it is making other application work slower.

I noticed that when I used to play my flash movies in PIII 1000 Mhz. it worked fine... but when I tested it in Pentium Pro.. it took lot of memory..and sometimes I had to re-start.

Movies included lot's of PIC.. done animated in Corel Paint.. which I transfered in flash.

maybe this helps.
