hi... i am doing an animation 23 fps that lasts about 90 secs...(around 2000 frames)

I am trying to solve this problem i got but i cant find the solution...
The movie plays fine but when 4 words are supposed to animate in individually (these words are movie clips) the animation stops for miliseconds until it loads the word and then starts again. While all of my animations on the same movie look ok these just cant be fixed...

I tried animating both with actionscript and on the timeline but still the same problem...

Could it be that the reason is that i just added a new font on my pc and i am using that?
I cant think of anything else...:'(

Hi — good description of the freeze. and pointed you toward profiling and font/rendering issues; below are concrete, practical steps that go beyond those hints and that you can try right away.

First, isolate the four word movie clips: temporarily replace each with a simple rectangle and test. If the hitch disappears, the problem is inside those clips (complex vectors, filters, or heavy initialization). Open the Library and inspect each symbol for linkage/class export settings; symbols that initialize on first use can cause a single-frame stall. For rendering-heavy clips try cacheAsBitmap = true or render each word once into a BitmapData and display that bitmap instead of live vectors — this removes costly vector redraws and filters at display time. If you have code running when the words appear, look for mass object creation or large loops and move that setup earlier (so it runs before frame 1836).

If these steps do not help, post a short test FLA or SWF (stripped down to reproduce the hitch) and include the Flash Player/IDE version. That will let responders see whether the freeze is CPU rendering, asset initialization, or runtime code, and suggest the precise fix. Small tests make diagnosis quick.

When you preview the movie in the bandwidth profiler is there a big spike at the time the text comes in? If so preloader is the only thing I can think of.

Try using a device font.
