Choppy Playback of small swf Animations

Question

Ok, this may be a very a simple and easy question... I would just like to know what would be others workflow or process per my given situation. We are creating a virtual classroom and building several swf animations to support the content for the classroom. Our swf files are no more than 80kb. When we do share my screen to show the files the playback of these animations are choppy, extremely pixelated and not playing back real time. (Starting to gather that is a bandwidth issue even though we do have our setting set up for the highest bandwidth during our rehearsals.)

Another option we have played with is uploading our files to the adobe connect server and creating a link. This still seems a little choppy, a slightly better quality but still not the quality of the original animation. Plus, we are not to keen on having to pull up a browser window throughout the presentation/ classroom to show our animations.

My question is what would be your best workflow or process to present these small swf files so there is no skipping/ choppy or degrading the quality of these animations in a Adobe Connect virtual classroom?

Appreciate any feedback or advice. Kind of newbie to Connect 😕😕

The screen sharing option makes sense, as the screen share runs around 5 FPS, so it would be visually choppy, and would have lag.

Are you custom building the SWF files? I would use the Collaboration SDK to make it so your SWF files can play in the sync'd mode in the connect room, or you can just load them into the Share pod as is and each individual will view it independantly. Just make sure you are making the SWFs in AS3.

SDK documentation is listed here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/adobeconnect.html
