Are you using the QuickTime controller to display controls to the user? It appears that you have your own progress bar from the code above and it seems odd that you have a progress bar that isn't being updated by some code somewhere. Is "myProgressBar" being used to show playback status? If so, how is it being updated? BTW, how can I load a still image into a player? Just set the fileName of the player to the path of a still image. You can load any media type that QuickTime supports. By the way, is your player object using QuickTime or did you set dontUseQT to true? If you aren't using QT then there may be other issues at play that I am not aware of. -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Multimedia [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

For the video you would have something like sorenson 3 or H.264 If your audio/video is encoded using a very high data rate then this could affect performance during playback depending on the system. You might try loading a still image in the player and see if the slowdown still occurs. If it doesn't then I would look at that data rate of your movies as a potential issue. -- I am using mp3 file with encoded with 96 data rate --- ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

I have apps that use player objects and scrolling fields and haven't noticed any problems related to the two. Information that could prove useful: 1) What platform? Mac, Win, Both? 2) Does this happen in development and deployment or just development? 3) What codecs do your movies use? 4) How many players are active at a time? 5) Is the player in a group that you are scrolling? 6) Does your player object overlap anything that is scrolling? - Hi Trevor, Information: 1) What platform? Mac, Win, Both? Both 2) Does this happen in development and deployment or just development? I happened in development and deployment 3) What codecs do your movies use? mp3 and mov 4) How many players are active at a time? One player 5) Is the player in a group that you are scrolling? The player is in different group (called AudioPlayer). I have other groups (called aboutUs, Partners,.). When I click on the button to go to one of these groups, the sound is paused 1 second. The aboutUs content has a scrollbar. It is slow when the music is playing. 6) Does your player object overlap anything that is scrolling?
