Re: FLASH: Frame rate

[Fernando Pieschac�n]

OK, but what I dont understand is why this happens:


1.  (No problem with this part) I have a movie originaly set at 12fps that runs an

9fps; I guess this means that this movie is too "heavy" for this processor. I

suppose that the correct thing to do is set it to 9fps and (after watching its

performance) eliminate some frames.


2. (This is the problem) I set the very same movie to 9fps and it know runs at 6fps

�why?.


My point is that the movie always seems to run slower than the settings frame rate.
