Is it speech? You might be able to crunch the file quite a bit.

I would like the V/O to start playing as soon as possible.
Sometimes the load wait can be 6 or 7 seconds.

If you want the sound to start playing when it's loaded, play = 1, else 0.

You can have 'streaming' sounds and 'event' sounds. I always use event sounds, i.e. don't add the additional stream param.

That is:

delete stream param
add autoplay param
set autoplay to ? 0,1, 2?

What's the combo?

Unsure, but the onLoad event is firing, resetting the sound.

Setting it the other way is problematic?

What's the diff?

Standard sound icon

play = 1

If I have stream set to 1, when I run off the server the audio starts as normal, then when (I guess) it's all loaded, the audio restarts at the beginning.
