Ok heres the deal, I'm making a movie in FLASH 4. I went over to a friends house to show him the movie, and when we watched it after the preloader loaded every thing played real fast. He has FLASH 5 and i know when I play it in FLASH 4 it plays fine. My question is, what can i do to fix this and is there a code i can put in the HTML? Kind of a weird one on me. I havent been messing with FLASH long and dont know much. Thanks for your time -killbuzz

Flash 4 Clashes with Flash 5?

how fast is your friend's computer? If it has a faster processor than yours it might be able to play the movie at real time (i.e., a real 24 or 30 fps) as opposed to a slower computer. This would explain why you made it to play "normal" on yours. Dunno. That's all I can think of.

I downloaded flash 5 and used it to see what the big deal was with it. Yes it was alot better some downfalls but, when i played my movie with flash 5 the movie ran flash so i uninstalled flash 5 and installed flash 4 back. the movie ran fine then when i went to my friends it did the same thing as when i had flash 5 the movie ran fast what can i do to make other users that have flash 5 run the movie as if they had flash 4????? help!! oh yeah the movie was uploaded to a site, and we watched it like that and it was fast.

Sorry Killbuzz, not ignoring you, just agree with Blended on this one. If you and your friends computers have varied processors/RAM you'll get varied relative fps. If the change to F5 is to blame it's an anomoly I have neither encountered nor heard of.
I test my work on two computers, one with 133MHz 128RAM the other with 750MHz 512RAM, both have F4 and F5 and the only time your problem occurs with me is with a processor-heavy movie on the lower-spec machine (which by today's standards is taking testing a bit too far anyway!)
