<<1- Windows Players ? : wich ? do you mean AAPLAY player>> There is only one Windows Player. After loading an animation, select Convert Anim from the file pull down menu. This will optimize your FLIC for Windows. <<2- I understand the difference between RAM & disk but it doesn't explain why the fli is very fast at the beginning (for + / – 2 second then slows down to become very slow at the end.>> I am suggesting that if the entire animation is not loaded into RAM, that the fast part is the part of the FLC that is already in RAM, and the slow part is being read and played from the hard disk. If an entire animation will not load in RAM, the player will load as much as it can, and then play the rest off the hard disk. -Brian
