Hey Matt this discrepancy in lights is unlikely to be related to the difference between local and online rendering, and more likely a difference in player and / or swf file. check your player version and swf file being run to make sure they are identical. Also, this may be a discrepancy between renderers - the standalone flash player will render on the GPU by default, while the browser plugin requires the parameter wmode=direct to be set in the embed tags otherwise the inbuilt software renderer is used
