Ok.

I've never used Prezi. ( Pablo, are you listening in?  This might be for
you! ;o) - http://prezi.com )

When an swf plays from within another swf, it usually adopts the frame rate
of the encapsulating swf.  Nature of the beast, and weird effects happen when 
you try to circumvent it.  This, could be your issue?

Don't think so.  With most things programmatic though, if in doubt, best
policy is to qualify it out. ;o)   Saves on a lot of hassle and bugs.

Sometimes. Sometimes not. As long as a switch and it's corresponding
argument are next to one another, all should be well, no matter the
where the rest are placed.  I wouldn't worry. Should you happen to
give a command something it's unable to digest, it'll tell you by
complaining loudly.

By default, so am I.

T'was an mp3 converted to an swf I think.
