buffer size

[ludaluda]

yeah well im doing this little 30 seconds movie.

i use a 57 png file, a 547 kb mp3 file and the rest is text, rectangle shapes and only float to center effect on the text to make them appear slowly.

the movie is now 5,3 mb and i cant do more stuff, and im half done i got about 70 frames only.

The software tells me im maxed out, buffer exceeded, and help topics says to not use wav and big jpg but i use an mp3 and a png, and i did some movies with kool moves way bigger than the one im making.

I got a banner i did with kool moves that uses about 30 pictures, and have about 240 frames, and a lot of animation, and it weights about 1 mb.

Help me here lol.

I did over 30 nice works with kool moves and ive never had this problem, the biggest movie i have weight 2,5 mb, but it's packed with stuff, and got a 1 mb music in it.

Help me here lol.

What is "a 57 png file"

Why is the movie so large? Use Movie > SWF File Statistics to break it down.

[ludaluda]

57 kb png file.

I dont know why it is so large i only use shapes and text inside kool moves, i only use two external files that doesnt total more than 600 kb.

Im gonna go see what you talk about and come back.

[ludaluda]

ok i went into file statistics and it says:

Sound 559 kb
Jpeg 14 kb
Scripts 38 kb
Vectors 7 kb
Total 618 kb

Preloader No
Version 6

so why does my file weight 5,3 mb?

[Bob Hartzell]

I don't have an answer. Sometime must be skipped in the file statistics calculation.

I suggest also looking at Movie > Movie Dependencies.
