Fred,
First, puppetTempo has had a history of unreliability. It would seem
clearer and easier to open the tempo channel (first row in the score)
and set a tempo.
Second, the tempo you specify is a maximum. Director will try to
make you program run as fast as it can up to the tempo you specify.
But if you are trying to do too much, or are inefficient in your
programming or overtaxing the CPU in other ways (e.g., displaying
many large deep bitmaps, etc,), the frame rate will suffer. Try to
figure out what you are doing to make Director work so hard (only
displaying at 15 fps).
