  • Video is very slow to start help

    Hi. I have placed a video on the home page but when the site opens, it takes along time to open and play. I have tried Real Player and Media Player but both are the same.
    Has anybody any ideas or can offer help?

    Site is www.kidsbirthdayparties-in-essex.co.uk

    Thanks

    Convert it to flash as one alternative.
    Personally i wouldn't have it on my front page as it will just mean visitors leaving. Try having it as a link to a pop-up. At least the visitors can get on the site, then click on a link with the knoll that it might take a few extra seconds.
    Regards Chris.
