How to make flash on my site load faster????

[life31]

The problem i am fascing with my new site is that the flash header what i used takes a bit time to load where as another small flash on the same page loads instantly.

Also one mor flash animation on another page loads instantly. But only the header takes a bit time to load.

How can i see that it loads instantly. Any specific help you could advice me for this.

Buy more bandwith for your site. Thats will help you to load fast. I believe that will help you..

I dont think that bandwidth has any thing to do with site loading. For that iste i only use 1% of the bandwidth i have per month. So 99% is free and available. So you mean i should still buy more bandwidth???

If you have crazy visitor and many people come and download your staff in your site. I believe they will eat your bandwith. My blog always down because of this reason. Try it if you have more than 1k unique visitor everyday. Your site will down because of that..

Ya i got it. In that case its like your site loads slow due to lack of bandwidth or less bandwith.

In that case buying extra bandwidth would be the only option

Yap. Bandwidth is the problem. I already plan to buy extra bandwidth this month. Hope its worth. Might be i also will change new webhosting. Seems my old webhosting always down..

Try to reduce the file size if possible by adjusting the image quality. Sometimes you won't know what is it like for people using slow internet connection and in this case, it's not your bandwidth that is the limitation but the other receiving party instead.

If we reduce the file sile, the picture and that flash/video will show a bad video. Sometimes we cannot see that video clearly if we use a small size unless we know how to make that flash work fine and we can see clear. Did you know how to do that?

Dude, it's something what we call give and take. Although I cannot declare myself to be a professional or any sort, basically you play with the screen resolution setting and find out whether by using that resolution, could still have a video quality that can be seen and accepted. Either way, you could also convert it to DivX format which will significantly cut down on the size. But the downside to having DivX is that, you will need a DivX web player. It's something a noob would know

[titaniumhijau]

I know about that. Just i'm not familiar with that and do that to my site or my forum. I'm just fine with my site now. Its fast and easy to read.

Well, it surprises me that you ask the question in the first place, since you already know about it. To me, I would cut down on the size of the video just to make it load faster, but of course the quality is still acceptable.

No not tillnow i had an satisfactory answer. And in my c ase it isant the problem of bandwidth at all cos i have 90% free bandidth.

And it isant also due to the length cos its only about less than a minute.So are there any other factors which would help me further increase the speed.

Ehm, maybe because of your PC RAM? That also will make your site run slow.

This problem may occur due to activex control and missing of some plugins, so install active X properly. bandwidth is also one of the reason...

Nope Nope!!! I finally got it why it ook time to load.

Check out my site [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and remember to keep your speakers on

lOL i had totally forgotten that that I had used a music file in the flash header and thats the reason it takes a bit more time to load. Ther's a small music played in the background when the site loads

I think its more a HardWare issue
rather anything else.

[life31]

I really doupt that being an hardware issue ???Do you mean its cos of the amount of ram and the speed of the processor that I use on my system ???I dont think so!

[hwang]

I think what he meant was (as you mentioned) the speed of processing and available memory. High end specification for the computer.
