The chatroom is a nightmare just now.. with freezing etc. I believe that the SH techies will be looking into resolving these chatroom issues, hopefully sooner rather than later.

SO i guess there's no connection via an IRC client then?
Who was it that designed the chat applet.... if it was you guys.. just have a script function .. to check the URL .. ie...if cam=1 then the swf will contain the webcam bit.... simple....
there are loads of people on this site who know bits about programming... ask for their help
PS... clearing the chat list doesnt work if the flash file cant load up fully!!!!!!!! is it a graphics memory issue or a main memory issue...
or a swf file that expects you to own a super computer

It seems to be a combination of several issues. I'm no stranger to actionscript myself, and I have to say I really don't think it's a suitable environment for processor intensive tasks like running video chats.
Firstly, there appears to be no cap on the size of any strings, so the storage space eaten up by the 'log' of messages, the user name lists, the profile name lists, the chatroom lists etc. just grows and grows until performance degrades so much the user gives up!
Secondly, there appear to be race states between the local machine and server if you do anything before all the status data has reached the client from the server
Thirdly, there is some sort of exponential-time process happening when typing long responses. I can literally hear my processor fan spinning up if I type long lines of text!
I think the only feasible method of fixing this without employing a really serious actionscript guru to implement infallible garbage-collection routines and optimise the code, is to go back to basics and have a java IRC client again, and trim the Flash section own to just handling the cams. This would have the triple benefits of allowing the old moderation system to be used, allowing Mirc access, and allowing any sort of automated policing/censoring (which the new room so despetately needs) to be carried out by a fairly simple to write IRC bot.

did a certain someone decompile the swf????
No, but a certain someone has experience with actionscript that has been written to satisfy a design document rather than actually be robust in use. It's a brilliant environment for hacking together things that look nice, but to take what is essentially a vector animation environment and expect it to be as robust as C...
