Boutique Template changing Flexslider speed setting

Question

Hi guys.
Im getting to grips with the new Boutique Template which is great and Im enjoying the use of web apps and content holders, all things I told myself Id use to be more efficient with my last template but didnt use fully.
Now they are using woothemes flexslider as a web app whci is very clever but Im finding it hard to change the speed of the slides. Ive timed them to be 9-10 seconds long so should be 9000 mili seconds but I cant find this setting in the supplied .js file.
On the site and at the bottom of the file they list the default settings as
slideshowSpeed: 7000,           //Integer: Set the speed of the slideshow cycling, in milliseconds
animationSpeed: 600,            //Integer: Set the speed of animations, in milliseconds
but when I either change this in the .js file at the bottom to a new number nothing changes.
Also when I mved the line to the top of the file the whole slider stops working and disappears off the home page.
;(function ($) {
  'use strict';
  //FlexSlider: Object Instance
  $.flexslider = function(el, options) {
    var slider = $(el),
        vars = $.extend({}, $.flexslider.defaults, options),
        namespace = vars.namespace,
        touch = ("ontouchstart" in window) || window.DocumentTouch && document instanceof DocumentTouch,
        eventType = (touch) ? "touchend" : "click",
        vertical = vars.direction === "vertical",
        reverse = vars.reverse,
        carousel = (vars.itemWidth > 0),
        fade = vars.animation === "fade",
        asNav = vars.asNavFor !== "",
slideshowSpeed: 7000,  
        methods = {};
    // Store a reference to the slider object
    $.data(el, "flexslider", slider);
so has anyone used this template and changed the slider speed.
second has anyone found any group infor on the newish template for BC as im sure ill need more help in future and thought others would be sharing info on the new ranges of templates.
Thanks guys.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you were to export the movie in QT Pro and reduce the frame rate to 15 fps, quality = high, you could reduce the size to 2.2 MB. If the quality setting was medium it would be 1.1 MB. You should try it and compare to see if the medium size would meet your image quality needs. Sure would speed up the loading.
