Hi,

my first flash movie is finished. I have placed it on the server to test.
I have noticed that when I run the movie through a html file my CPU is taken 99%.
When I open the swf movie my CPU is normal.

Check it out:

99 percent CPU (http://www.dr-weirdo.be/index2.html)
:confused:

Less CPU use (http://www.dr-weirdo.be/menubar.swf) :)

Could someone help me reduce the CPU????
Is it even possible?????

THX

Well, I just had a look at your site and I could see both movies without any problems, but I have a pretty fast internet connection.

Beside; great design/layout, I really like it. How did you do that?

I hope I could help you with that.
Have a nice time

I dont know the speed of your computer. However I have a 447MHz PII, and I think the reason could be all the Alpha layers. Thats normally what slows my computer down with Flash. When I ran the other one in low quality, it only used about 50%.

Nice music.

May I suggest a Re-Launch Button?

THX,

meanwhile I have succeeded reducing the CPU percentage from 99% to a 30-40 percent.
It had to do with my music.
I load the music in a different movie in a new level. In that movie the slider constantly checks if the user has changed the volume of the music and set's it accordanly. I have changed this by just checking it on the on release event of the slider button.

Matt8109 what do you mean with a re-launch button?

Well when you first go to the site, it pops-open the Flash page by itself. Sometimes people may close the window, and they may want to re-open it. But the only way to do it now would be to refresh the page. So what you would do, is put a little button that says Re-Launch, and when they click it, it would re-open the window with the Flash movie.

Its a great site.
