Long loading time in FF was created by brendonhatcher
Hi

I noticed that when I load a page with the allvideos mambot on it (showing a local WMV) it takes quite a while to load in FF when compared to IE6. 

I was wondering if FF was starting to buffer the wmv video once the page loads, rather than waiting for the user to click on the play button.

I wait for the page to finish loading and then play the video.  It runs immediately, and I can advance towards the end without having to rebuffer.

I ask because this has quite an impact on bandwidth.

Regards
Brendon

WMVs don't like Firefox so much. Frankly, M$ made WMV's so. But with the popularity gained by FF, MS released a small plugin to fix such incompatibities.

Download the Firefox plugin here: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:7
