ActionScript 2.0 :: Clearing Sound Position Value
Aug 26, 2006
I am using previous/next buttons to navigate through various screens. Each screen has its own voice over track.If I hit the "Next" button in the middle of the track playing, then try to go back, the audio won't play - most likely because the position is still sitting at wherever it was when the sound was stopped.Is there a way I can reset the position? I am assigning the positiong to a variable (mySoundPosition), and have tried stting it to 0 (mySoundPosition=0), but that doesn't seem to help. I know that the position is read-only, so I was hoping that somehow clearing the value of the variable would work.Basically, I just need a way to start the sound over without having to envoke multiple start(); commands because that causes the sounds to essentially play twice, simultaneously, which doubles the volume.

lets say I am using flash just to pump sound on a html website, utilized in a separate frame. problem --> every time a user goes back to the one page or pages that the flash sound file plays on, an echo happens, as if the browser were playing the file from the cache and loading another sound swf. How do I stop the sound from loading on top of itself? code for sound file:

I have currently a music player that uses Sound.position and Sound.duration to use as a playlist. However, the sound is streaming, so then Sound.duration is the number of loaded seconds/miliseconds. Is there a way for me to figure out the duration of a sound without fully loading it? Right now, it really messes up the playhead.

I am trying to call a sound to play whenever the UP key is down. I want the sound to stop and reset to position zero when UP is released. Everything works except the sound will not reset to 0. Here is what isn't working:
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){
if(sound.position == 0){
sound.start(0,0);[code]....
When ran, the program plays the sound once, and will never play it again because I can't get the sound.position to reset to 0.

Just to start off, this isn't exactly an inquiry to a problem. It is moreso of a posting of a bug (or assumed bug) in the Flash player and how to get around it. Though if anyone else has a better method then share. Ok, well I very rarely ever work with the Sound() object in Flash, and I found myself working with it today. I was having a problem and I could not pinpoint it for the life of me.... my code appeared correct in every aspect.
After tracing many sections of my code to find out where it was going wrong I realized... that for some reason when you use Sound.stop(), the Sound.position doesn't get reset... it instead just increments from where it left off. This is quite annoying. And being that Sound.position is a read only property you can't reset it yourself. The only solution I have found for this is to delete or overwrite your Sound() object with a new Sound() object. Anyone know if this is indeed a bug, or if there was some reason Macromedia did it like this?

Is there any code in as3 that sets the volume by x&y- coordinates of the mouse?So that my sound is in a MC, and how closer my mouse is at the MC, the louder the volume gets?

Basically I have an XML file that contains the paths of a few mp3 files. I have a Play button that plays them and a Next button that plays the next song on the list. These buttons work fine. I actually even am able to obtain and manipulate the songs position using the mySong.position property in order to display the songs position in the form of minutes and seconds.My problem is that when you click Next to go to the next song, the mySong.position property does not reset back to zero, like it should. So if you are 12 seconds into a song and you click NEXT, the next song starts to play fine, but the display keeps counting up from 12 seconds. I realized the .position property is read-only, so I cannot change it. If this is the case, then how does it ever reset, what causes it to reset?
I am loading the songs via the loadSound() method. Which means my only code on the Next button (other than to update some other displays) is:Code:mySound.loadSound("file.mp3", true);I do not need to use mySound.stop() to stop the previous sound, or even mySound.start() to start the new sound playing, it starts automatically. I tried using those commands and got the exact same results, the position property still did not reset.Am i missing something? I sure hope its painfully obvious and I just overlooked something simple cuz im getting a headache

I have a pause button that pauses a sound playing in a sound channel. It works, but when I resume the sound, it isn't in the correct position, almost like it was rewinded a little.[code]

I`ve run in a bit of a problem. I`m trying to make a web player in AS2. It stores some data from player for later usage in a shared object. One of the things i`d like to store is my current playing position, so player can start of where it was playing after page reloads, but i can`t think of how it should be done..

I am following this tutorial (Url...) on how to build an audio mixer in Flash. I am trying to display the duration/position of one of the sound objects in the mixer (all sounds in the mixer have the same length). I have tried adding this code to the actions under frame label "ready".[code]I have two dynamic text fields named Text01 and Text02 on the main timeline. Yet, nothing populates.

If you wanted to create a client-side Flash-based sound editor that lets you load more than 1 sound to an interface that allows you to manipulate the individual positions of the sounds, and mix/play them in real time, how would you accomplish this?
I'm looking to create a simple version that can mix 2 mp3s, allowing the user to adjust the positions of each. Sort of a dumbed down version of Aviary's Myna audio editor.
At the end of the mixing, I would also like our server to mix the 2 mp3 files with the proper positioning into 1 mp3 file...

In trying to activate the remainder of the pause button, I find that using MovieClip(loader.content).channel.position always returns 0. I've tried numerous other combinations to access the position of the sound for the play function to resume correctly. The visual part of extswf.swf stops and starts exactly as it should.
In CntlClass:
public var loader:Loader;
public var movie_mc:MovieClip;
public var soundResume:int = 0;[code].........

I have built a flex application which has a "main" project and it is assosciated with a few RSL's which are loaded and cached once i run my "main" application. The problem i am facing is that the newer versions of my RSL's are not being loaded as the cache holds the older version of my RSL and execxutes the same. Each time i have got to clear the cache to execute the new version of my RSL's, which is irritating.

I have a website that is currently all flash-based. Unfortunately if you return to that website, it won't change a thing until you delete your temporary internet files, being that it is flash. So for every update, I have a new .swf file ie: 2801091.swf and this works perfectly fine. However when you enter the calendar, it loads the .xml file but it's always what's been cached.
1) Everything about the flash file can be revised if it's the newest version so dated .swf files aren't created every time there's an update?
2) A way to clear the .xml cache or refresh it every time the calendar is opened?

I might me going crazy, but I've scoured the trying to find a way to clear out or reset or empty an array. I've tried a for loop
for(i=0; i<_root.imageList.length; i++){
_root.imageList.shift();
}
Doesn't always work. So how do I "reset" an array, just clear it out completely so I can reuse it?

In a simplistic view, what I want to do is when the 'previous' or 'next' button is pressed, increase or decrease the page number by 1, which is easy enough, and start afresh...I though it should be a case of removing all the children from the scene and then executing the functions at the start of the script, after all the variables have been set.However, when I do this, I get the following error:
## [Tweener] Error: : [object preloaderMain_12] raised an error while executing the'onComplete'handler.
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

but later I want this onEnterFrame to stop functioning to conserve on processor resources.setInterval isn't too good of an option from the way I have things set up, so right now I just set it to a new function with a trace action which overwrites the old one.

I'm creating a gallery of thumbnails and main images from a loaded XML file.The initial load is fine and all is working, Thumbnails are produced in a masked movieclip and the first image is defaulted to display at start perfectly well. The gallery also has several categories in it which a user can view by clicking a button for each. eg Sites, Designs, Cards etc. Each of these categories information are held within different separate XML files. eg sites.xml, designs.xml and cards.xml etc.
Now here lies the problem. When a user clicks a new button the new XML loads the new information and the files display, but on top of the thumbnails/main images that were already present because the file that was initially open has not cleared. So what I want to do is simply remove the data that is currently being displayed, so in essence removes the images etc. Then replace those with the images from the new XML file.Is this at all possible because from searching the last week I haven't been able to find it. I guess I can't see the wood for the trees at the moment.

I've having a problem when I am removing a child. There is an area where you can choose a button to click(there are multiple buttons here). Once you click a button it loads workss_mc and you can go back from there and workss_mc is being removed then work_mc is being added again. The problem is once it is added again and you click on any of the other buttons the frame label from the previous session when it was clicked is still at that location.

Here is the flash file I am working on for a local kids charity so you can see [URL]. If you press the next button 9 times it will bring you to a drag and drop game I have made, you have to match the targets so it spells cat, this works fine, the problem I am having is that the objects you match stays there for the rest of the frames (try it yourself by pressing next) I am just wondering how to clear this?
