netThrottleTicks

Syntax

    the netThrottleTicks

Description

System property; in the Macintosh authoring environment, allows you to control the frequency of servicing to a network operation.

The default value is 15. The higher the value is set, the smoother the movie playback and animation is, but less time is spent servicing any network activity. A low setting allows more time to be spent on network operations, but will adversely affect playback and animation performance.

This property only affects the authoring environment and projectors on the Macintosh. It is ignored on Windows or Shockwave on the Mac.
