I've got a few .flvs on this site I'm making. Each one is less than 80k.
Is there any hope of getting the site to work on older (g4) macs or am I dreaming?
I know this topic has been discussed before, I was just wondering if there were any new techniques I could use.

what's not working. I've workd on quite a few sites with flvs and have not had a problem getting them to play on my powerbook or my tower. I might be missing what your saying though.

It's not the size of your tower, it's the power of your RAM

On macs, flash plays differently than pcs - the size of your processor does matter.

You should know by now that once Apple comes out with a new Mac the old ones are rendered useless.
Fork out that $3000 and get yourself a new one...

put an FPS checker on there and we can shoot you back the rates we are getting.
also i'd use 31fps. there is a slight boost in performance when you put the framerate above 30 in flash for macs.

mightyj, this seems counter intuitive.Increase my frame rate from 12fps to 31? The processor is maxing out as it is.
Ill check out your plugin though, thanks.
