Hi folks!

I've been approuched to repair an ill Shockwave file.
The original is still up on the site, and the only issue is that the audio
does not initially play. Once the viewer has clicked on the menu and visited
deeper into the app then if they return to the intro it plays. I figured I
could fix this pretty easly.

Well, that isn't the problem I approach you with today. You see, I've been
sent the files, and they are older than 8.5. I update the files using the
update command under Xtras, and when I attempt a 'preview in browser', it
gives me a "Shockwave error - This shockwave movie has errors that have
caused playback problems. Please contact the author of this content
regarding this problem. Shockwave is unable to continue".

If I do a test where I place an audio file and the first flash file in the
internal cast of a new document, it works. So, my question is, what is the
deal with external casts? I've got scripts, VO, soundFX and SWF casts. What
am I doing wrong? I agreed to do this job cheap, as it seemed simple enough,
and now I find myself putting many hours into trial and (inevitable) error.
yelp...
