I am trying to loop a small sound file (wav file because I was told wav will loop seemlessly)...in any case, got the actionscript (2.0) to work with one simple button that acts as a start and pause... but yet, the file still doesnt loop.

I am having trouble creating a simple flash music metronome. Specifically, I can't figure out how to determine the position of a slider and use this position to determine how frequently to play a certain imported sound. I would also like to be able to display the tempo on the screen.

I am looking for a way to split a loaded mp3 Sound into small segments. I have googled around but cannot find anyth on the matter. I am begining to think it is impossible. My approach was to load the mp3, then use the extract function to extract all the bytes. now for every small section when the user wants to play it it is filled using SampleDataevent with some values from the array. At first i tried to do my idea by loading an mp3 into a bytes array then writing it to a new file and playing that file but it does not work:
Code:
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.addEventListener("complete",loaded);
snd.load(new URLRequest("Burn.mp3"));

how do I get this code to repeat itself continually, because it just executes once. Im not that good with listeners, i know functions and variable etc though im not that bad.
Code:
if (health<=0) { gotoAndStop("mainDead");}
Its on a frame, not a MC.

I'm trying to build a small app that will iterate through an array of sound files to see if they are valid.I'm simulating corrupt sound files by taking .png's and changing the extension on them to .mp3 The idea is a sound will start playing and the timer will start. When the sound is done playing the next sound will start and the timer will reset and start counting down again. If a sound does not finish within 45 seconds the timer will complete, output the name of the file that did not finish, and then skip to the next file. For some reason though the timer does not reset when the sounds finish playing, it just keeps counting down from wherever it is.
Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;
[code]....
I have to play a sound file and show the progress of the sound file being played. I am using import flash.media.Sound; import flash.media.SoundChannel; But the PROGRESS event gives theprogress of loading of file. I want to know of much of the song has been played and how much more is left.
View 3 RepliesI'm developing a little site for a friend. Though the filesize is v. small and it seems to load quickly, there is a delay playing. There are many objects duplicated in AS so undoubtedly this is the problem, but is there any way of initializing them so that the delay is slower? I'm using flash cs3.
View 3 RepliesI created a flash video with interactive menus using Encore.The .swf file played fine from my laptop computer.I copied the .swf file and its associated files to a micro SD card and tried to play it from a Samsung Galaxy Tab (7 inch tablet, Wifi only version) but it would not play.I searched the web and it appears that the Galaxy Tab will play flash videos off the web, but will not play them off-line (that is, stored on the device locally). I want to preserve the interactive menus.My goal is to be able to play videos with menus, off a small 7" tablet with a bright and contrasty display Overall, I liked to Samsung Galaxy Tab, but I returned it when I could not figure out how to play .swf videos stored on its local memory.
View 2 RepliesI need to first express that I'm a fully self-taught Flash designer. No one has ever sat down and tried to explain to me the DOs and DONTs about Flash. I have followed tutorials, books, and anything else I can get my hands on, but never a person. People of Flash seem to be very hard to find, in my personal experience.I am the most comfortable with Photoshop, knowing very little about Illustrator or Fireworks.That said, I have been asked to create a 45KB (yikes!) max file, rotating 3 .jpg images I created from other .jpgs given to me. The images are usually large, so I am given room to compress them for a 300px x 250 px stage.
However, these images are always my biggest culprit for my huge file size. I'll import them in, making them into Graphic Symbols, but nothing seems to prevent the enourmous file size.When given the raw images, I would throw them into Photoshop, make the files the correct 300x250 size. Then I have tried: saving the image at the best resolution in .jpg and .png form, and then I tried saving the images as low-as-I-could-stomach quality. I hardly see a difference with file size when they are imported into Flash and used.I was told to use Fireworks's Optimize function, which I did, but it made my .swf even biggerWhen I have my Flash piece all set up/animted as I want, but I need to replace the bitmap(.jpg/.png) photos, I will:right click on the bitmap to get properties, "upload" the new image to be used, adjust the Quality, having "Allow smoothing" unclicked.
I understand I should make as much of the graphics in Flash as I can, instead of Import, but I am primarily given photographs to use.Seeing what my previous peers have done is mind-puzzling, but they are not around, so I cannot ask them for their advice. Their files are under 45KB and look sharp and amazing:[URL]
im following some suggestions to cut my flash website into a few sections to make preloading a bit easier.
so all i want is to make a small round ring rotate as long as the file is loading. so i looked and followed a lot tutorials but all the preloaders tutorials are much more compliceted then i need. they all have persentige sowing, and a bar that is filling according to how much the file has loaded, and colors changing etc. so i tried to take from the tutorials wat i need for my simple preloader to work but i get stuck.i built the animation of the rotating ring, but i get stuck with the actions i need to make the animation work as long as the file is working. i called my ring animation "circularloader". here is a image of the page with the ring:
best way to read in like 200k words and have them each tween from the center of the screen as small dots and tween up to the word filling the SWF then "fly through my head" not literally, but you probably get it...
View 2 RepliesI'm having some trouble getting the following code to work - trying to use the new Sound.extract() function to get two seconds of a Sound into a ByteArray, and then create a new bytearray with a WAV header, and then output the file. The resulting 'test.wav' file sounds very wrong although slightly recognisable? I think I may have some of the WAV header settings may be wrong but I'm not quite sure what's the matter and after a long time scratching

I have a long mp3 file hosted on a standard apache server (30 minutes long so far, but I would like it to work with longer sounds too).I'd like to start playback of this audio within at a specified point. When attempting to use Flash Actionscript 3, my basic tests show that ALL the audio from the start to the position I choose is buffered before playback (Sound.bytesLoaded was my friend here). If I start one second in, it takes about 3 seconds to start playback, 30 seconds in, takes about 25 secondsObviously with a really long mp3, like skipping playback to the middle of a 3-hour audiobook, this isn't going to be practical.Here's the ActionScript 3.0 code I'm using:
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function():void {
var s:Sound = new Sound();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://example.com/audio.mp3");

Using AS 3.0 and the action script project I was planning on writting a small file handeling utility to make processing files through AS better and easier. The problem is the API states that to call file you go
import flash.file
Well in flashbuilder going import flash. only gives me filter, and no file handeling imports....
It's possible to play a sound file through AS, either by loading it from a folder or import it to flash. It's also possible to play a dynamic tone with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat.
But... is it possible to play a sound file with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat in some way? I want to play a sound file without having to deal with any files except the .swf!
I'm using this code to play/stop a sound in my flash movie, but I can't figure out how to make it loop. What do I need to do?[code]
View 3 RepliesI have CS4 but saving doc as CS3 so I hope I am in the right forum. I added a behavior as sound streaming mp3. I want to loop it.. Here is the action code that was generated. How would I change it to looping. I changed the true to false at the end of the code but that didn't work. here it is:
//Load Streaming mp3 behavior if(_global.Behaviors == null)_global.Behaviors = {}; if(_global.Behaviors.Sound == null)_global.Behaviors.Sound = {}; if(typeof this.createEmptyMovieClip == 'undefined'){ this._parent.createEmptyMovieClip('BS_figaro',new Date().getTime()-(Math.floor((new Date().getTime()) /10000)*10000) ); _global.Behaviors.Sound.figaro = new Sound(this._parent.BS_figaro);

How can I loop a sound without the gap? If i try
ActionScript Code:
play(song, 100);
it will have a gap everytime it loops, how can i fix that?
I have managed to get my sound playing from the library but would like to know what the simplest way to loop the sound in as3 would be, (using the smallest amount of code as possible preferably!)

how to continuously loop a sound, but all I have seen is aSound.play(0,1000);Not really a continueous loop. I was looking at watching for one of the COMPLETE dispatches (from the Sound object, or from the SoundChannel object), then start the sound again. The only thing is would this not start another channel?

So, I downloaded a simple sound loop from Flash Kit.
I am building a Flash webiste and want the sound to loop once the movie loads. I have added a stop and play button to the movie in case the viewer doesn't want the sound on. I understand sound can be annoying.
I add the following code to the FRAME 1 of the movie. Everything works fine but when the loop finishes, it just stops. How do I get it to continue looping? Also, as I navigate to other sections of the movie.. I want it to continue playing and not restart when I go back to say "Home". Home starts at frame 1 as well.[code]...
ok so im having an issue with Flash CS5.I have a sound looping, and my animation is only 13 frames long, while the song is like a minute long, so each time the animation loops threw the default "Loop Playback" a new sound audio is played which os overlapping the previous over and over causing a massive echo effect.Whats the best way to loop both of them insync, or atleast copy and paste the animations frames and make it the length of the song?
View 1 RepliesI have created a button which plays an external MP3 file, but the first problem is it only plays once. What script do i have to add so the sound continually loops. Secondly, I have created a button which stops music, but I can't figure out the code which stops the MP3 file playing. I've tried backMusic.close();, but an error message is displayed as the sound is already loaded up.
Heres the ActionScript Code:

Is there some secret to attaching sound via a loop? I have had to hard code this and write it out 26 times.
Here's what I want:
ActionScript Code:
for(k=1;k<=26;k++)
{

I've tried it with _root, without, using a variable such as moji = eval("moji"+k) then moji.onPress, but nothing works. It just won't play the sound unless it's hard coded.
In the tutorials, there is a sound loop that you start with a button, The fla didn't have a stop script to add to a second button.
View 4 RepliesI don't know why, but my sound dosn't loop, even though I set it to loop, here is the complete code: This is on my 1st frame:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var musicloaded = _root.bg_music.getBytesLoaded();
var musictotal = _root.bg_music.getBytesTotal();
var lprogress = Math.round((musicloaded / musictotal) * 100);

can anyone tell me how to loop 5 different sounds, drums, bass, sax etc. When i use :

and play them all, it's ok, looping fine, but what i want to do is to have 5 buttons that control those 5 sounds. turning of and on some of them... i tried with "secondSound.setVolume(0)" to turn off 2nd sound, but that kill them all... CAN i SOMEHOW set volume down just for one sound? OR if thats not possible, i need bass or sax sound to start again, when button is clicked, in the same position where drums sound is...
but when loop start again to start also from "0" i've also tried reading firstsound position:
