I tried using a form of "volume = 0" kind of code but one thing it doesn't mute is the sounds I have in buttons (or symbols). Those seem to continue playing even when the mute is active.So whats a form of code I could use to shut off all volume?If there isn't a solution then what can I do to mute symbol sounds?
View 1 RepliesThis is a simple mute toggle button for an mp3 player.
I first var sound: Sound

The mute button code I have works perfect when the SWF is played itself, but when it is embedded in a wrapper SWF it no longer works. I know that it is the code that references _loc1. I have the root locked in the first frame of the embedded swf with this:
Code:
this._lockroot = true;
Here is the code in question. I just need to know how to change this code to make it work when this SWF is embedded in another SWF:
Code:
btn.onPress = function () {
var _loc1 = _root.snd.getVolume();
_root.snd.setVolume(Math.abs(_loc1 - 100));

I've downloaded the the Flash mp3 Player. I did some minor modifications to it and it works well. The only problem I have is that when the mute button is pressed, the current song is mute(s.setVolume(0)), but when the next song comes up, the mute button is not in mute state(Volume not set to 0). I want to keep the mute state unchanged when the songs are playing untill the mute button is pressed again.
View 6 RepliesSo i have a flv playing on a flash load. I need the mute button toggled to "mute" by default.
Code:
my_FLVPlybk.muteButton = mutebtn;
that is the mute button instance i am using.
I have an flv that is playing through a playback component with the instance name of "player". The whole goal here is to have the audio muted when the file begins, and have an mc button ("noise") allow the user to toggle the audio on and off. I'm not having any video controls on here, just the home-made audio toggle. Here is the code I have:
player.volume = 0;
noise.onRelease = function(){
if (player.volume = 0){
player.volume =100;

I have tried switching the 0's to 100's and vise versus, I sometimes can get it to play but then not mute, or mute then not play.I have also tried switching the function to setVolume, with no results. I know I am close, disregard the gotoAndPlay's, it just controlls an animation for the button.
My sound object (below) is working with my volume dragger, but not with the mute button as well. The mute button works without the dragger, but they don't work together.
Code:
t1 = new Sound();
t1.attachSound("mysound");
t1.start();

why does the sound not play when this SWF is externally loaded.

View 2 Repliesi have an mp3 that plays as background music to my website with a mute button that fades the music in or out. This works using the code below that i found on another site.My problem is i would like to have this music added to an external swf that i could load into my main site in order to decrease the main site file size. When i load swf however, the music doesnt play. the button appears (which is also in the external swf) so i know that the movie is loading but no sound plays.

View 9 RepliesI'm creating a movie with an FLVPlayback component. I used the standard Play/Pause, Mute and Volume Bar components supplied with CS5.I have had no problem getting the individual components to work by themselves... the play/pause button plays or pauses, the mute button mutes, and the volume slider controls the volume. But how do I set the volume bar to 0 when the mute button is on, restore the original volume when the mute button is turned off, and turn on/off the mute button if the volume bar is dragged?

View 8 RepliesI want to add a mute / unmute button for sound that must remain synced to my animation. It sounds like a pretty straightforward task and I'm embarased that THIS is where I've gotten stuck while I've gotten through some stuff I thought would be way harder on my own. The reason this is a problem is because in considering 2 approaches I've run into a wall. I'll gladly accept any advice to circumvent the roadblock either way.
Approach 1 is to add the sound to the library, drop it in the timeline as a stream and build my animation to match. That works just fine, but I can't find an instance name for the sound to run a setVolume function against (not even sure if it would be that simple, but without an instance name, I can't move any further forward; I tried labeling the first frame of the sound layer 'narration' and trying refernces like timeline.narration, timeline, narration, and so on, but no joy).
Approach 2 is to import the sound using URLRequest, instantiating the sound and setting the volume against that instance. Works like a charm but the sound drifts out of sync with the animation (that was synced perfectly when it was in the timeline). This is my less appealing option because I'm using nav buttons taking me to various frames and the sound (which used to pick up at the right frame when it was in the timeline) just plays on without regard to the point in the animation. It's not a surprise to me that this happens, but if I were to do this I'd need to write code into my nav buttons to pick up the right spot in the sound instance and I'm not sure how to do that.
The image is the little speaker, which has been converted to a Button symbol. When you click the button to mute, the sound mutes and a red "X" appears over the speaker icon. The red "X" was created as a Movie Clip so that it appears and disappears as you mute and unmute....after you click the button and mute, the red "X" does appear, however 1.) When the master movie recycles so does that X (it disappears). The muting stays off, though. Of course, then, if I want to unmute, I have to reclick the speaker icon to make the "X" reappear and then quickly click it again to turn the muting off (and I have to catch it before it recycles and disappears again).it is anyway. I'm using AS2:
var sound = 1;var offMC = _root.attachMovie("off","off01",99);off01._visible = false;off01._x = btn._x;off01._y = btn._y;var s:Sound = new Sound();s.attachSound("WildWestSaloon2");s.start;btn.onPress = function(){ if(sound==1){

View 1 RepliesI have just installed Flash Professional CS5. I have set up a short 3 second Flash .swf file and incorporated it into my website using Dreamweaver CS5. The Flash file has a background sound file and the Flash program loops. I see how to set up a mute button and have done that, yet when the file loops the sound begins again. I have looked through the many tutorials and forums and simply cannot find out how to set up the button so that when the "Mute Sound" button is clicked the sound stops even after the file loops. I am guessing it might have something to do with setting up my timelines, yet I have played around with that and did not get anywhere.
View 4 RepliesI currently have several photos that rotate in an out and i also have a music clip which plays when i test the movie. i want to add a mute button from the components tab onto a timeline. Not sure how difficult this is for a novice, but I would like to try and figure it out. Most of the tutorial i've looked at tell you how to create the button and link it to the music. I haven't come across anything that tells you how to embed it into a timeline.

View 4 RepliesI am very very new to action script, most of the flash I use is for banner animation etc. I am doing a video that I need to start playing automatically, but it has to start playing muted. For this part I am using the following code
Code:
vid.playPauseButton = playpauseVid;
vid.volume = 0;
vid._uiMgr._isMuted = true;
vid.muteButton = mute;
vid is my video instance name.
This works great so far. But now the client wants to ad a big button over the video that says PLAY WITH SOUND. And that button has to serve the same function as the unmute button but it has to disappear once it is clicked.
I've created a mute button which works fine for my flv and all other button sounds, but i want to swap the symbol for the volume so that when its off it will come up as off but when the user clicks on it to be on it will show that it is on etc...
