Sound question

[Michele84]

Hi everybody

I've some troubles adding a sound to one of my pages.
here the xml code:

Code: [Select]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE book SYSTEM "http://megazine.mightypirates.de/megazine.dtd">
<book pageheight="560" pagewidth="404" bggradient="false" cornerhint="false" barpos="top 20" dragrange="20" hidebuttons="fullscreen settings help" openhelp="never" zoomrotate="false" zoomthumb="true">
<chapter>
<page>
<snd src="snd/azzurro.mp3" />
<img src="pages/pagina_1.swf" hires="pages/01b.jpg" />
</page>
</chapter>
</book>
In local server it works correctly, but online the sound starts after a minute.
Is there a way to enable streaming for sounds?
I think im missing an attribute somewhere...

thanks for help

Hi Michele84,

Your XML looks OK, to me at least. And as it works locally, it should work (and does as you wrote) online, too.

I see you have two files on that page - an SWF and a MP3. Could it be your MP3 is not just a loop, but a bigger piece? SWFs can be big sometimes, the same for  MP3s (which sometimes take up to 1 MB per minute, unless you know how to  compress them better) ...
Perhaps it is just a connection problem? (Are you on broadband?) - Is the sound file music or speech? Can I see it online somewhere?
