I currently use:
Code:
mySound = new Sound();
mySound.loadSound("music.mp3",true);
1.) How do I set the number of loops?
2.) What is the Actionscript code to unload the sound?
I downloaded a flash template and have modified it to suit our company but there is something that I can't do. When the file loads in the browser, music immediately plays and loops until you click a button to stop the music. On our video page, we have video
that we need to play that has sound in it. How do I get the background music to stop when my video plays without having to go up and stop the music manually. The videos are loaded via an external XML document and there are no buttons in the FLA file to link code to. the website is [URL]
I am working on a photo gallery with music and everything works good except I can not seem to load multiple music files one right after another. This is the code I have that works with one music file.

View 2 RepliesHave read everything I can read Have tried everything I that has been posted. And still I can seem to get a simple external swf to load and play using AS3. I have tried numerous ways with the same results everytime Here are a few of the scripts I have tried. What I would like to have happen is to have one main timeline where I load sequentially external SWF files - there is no interaction required - it is a presentation that includes video and other Flash SWF files that I have created. Now I just want them all in one flash file. I had no problems with AS2 doing this, but I'm sure having fits with AS3
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest
("script1_3.swf");

I am working over a program that needs to extract meta data from music files in different formats. It was easy for MP3 format, but there is nothing for other formats.I made a research, there is a lot of software for extracting meta data - but no source code or algorithm. There are open source projects, they use their own libraries, but I was not able to find something for Flex (Action Script)
View 2 RepliesAlright so I'm making a website for my friends band, and they want to have a music player to play their MP3's. One of the things I'm concerned about though, is the security of the MP3 files. Their albums are on iTunes to buy, so I'm looking for what the best option to have the MP3s be played but not be able to be downloaded and saved.The best thing I can think of is embedding the MP3's inside a Flash music player, but that would be more work than it's worth it seems.

View 1 RepliesMMO best practice. Download music and heavy files to users hard disk? I have just downloaded a Hello Kitty MMO app for research (for my kid of course).I am developping my English teaching app with LOADS of classical music, mp3 sentences and heavy background bgs. Would the best idea be for client to download these to their hardisk ie I would not need to stream them and therefore save a fortune on bandwidth charges from my ISP?
View 3 RepliesI was trying to make a media player with AS3 coding.. I know how to make play, pause, next buttons etc.. And i also learned to load playlist from a XML file (created mannually)..What i actually need is to browse the computer and select multiple files and add those files to a playlist.. All these must be done with the media player itself(not manually typing the XML data).. XML file dynamically by selecting the music files, using the player.. Or is there some other method to create playlist without making the XML?..
View 6 RepliesI have a site that loads an external mp3 player. Now I want to pause the sound when the "video" button is pressed.

View 2 RepliesI'm working on making a pretty chunky game engine for games I plan on making, but I was wondering if you make external AS files unopenable such as .lib files, so that if I give it to a friend that wants to use it, he/she cannot change my code. Is there anyway to make external AS files unopenable? Also, obfuscation isn't an option for this problem as it only stops the people who hack the finished product, not stopping people who have access to the actual files.

I am trying to figure out if it's possible to embed an external flash music player (in this case sound cloud) to play some of my own tracks in my flash site. I don't want to create my own player as the sound cloud player is really nice and also has stats.

View 2 RepliesI'm working on an animation where I have my "dog" fighting the evil vacuum cleaner. I got most of it to work the way I want it to.
1) I have movie clips entitled pepper_mc (where my dog is supposed to be walking), swirl (where a swirly-type symbol is supposed to spin over the dead vacuum's head), and vacuum_mc (where the evil vacuum is supposed to have a swinging arm (called vacuumarm_mc) that I created using the bone tool). When I add them to the stage and test them, the animations within the movie clips don't happen.
2) I have background music that I'd like to stop playing at the end of the animation, but I'm not sure how to do that. (using the stop(); actionscript doesn't help).Where am I going wrong? I'm using Flash Pro CS5.
Here's the file --> Pepper and the Vacuum of DOOM!
When the movies performs the getURL action, I want the music to continue playing, but the getURL function seems to stop the music at frame 152 (where the getURL action is placed), when I wanted the music to continue to frame 257 (the end of the movie). I hope I've explained this clearly
View 3 RepliesStructure: There is 1 main file that loads external SWF files depending on what is clicked on.One of the external SWF files loads its text from external text files. This works fine when viewing the SWF applet on its own. But when viewing as a whole site, the text doesnt appear. Very annoying.I made that particular SWF on my mums computer running Flash MX 2004The flash file itself uses the Scrollbar component from MX.Could someone tell me why the text doesnt load in this scenario? It runs fine on its own, just not as an external SWF.

If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

I am trying to create a music animator. It will have bars that move up and down do the beat of the music. This is like windows media player where the music animations play. I want it to be verticle bars, where some are in sync with like the base and others are in sync with the tempo. Does anyone know of a tutorial for this? I am trying to emplement it within my website so that whatever music I am playing will auto control the bars and sync.
View 5 RepliesI'm looking for a way to set a version or build number to match across a few files using Flashdevelop. I'd like it so that before I build my project I can set this version number quickly across all interested files simultaneously without having to open each file, select and paste the new value.
In my main AS file I have a variable set like so:
private var version:String = "1.2.3.4";
And in two other XML files I'd like to have the same version number appear, maybe like:
File 1:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<data version="1.2.3.4">
[Code].....
This hopefully should be an easy fix. Part of my program calls for extracting the number of files within a given directory. This is done easily using the code below:
[Code]....
However, this code only works using AIR as the runtime player. There should be an equivalent command that can be used with Flash layer 10.2 or earlier.
Is there a way to find the number of mp3 files on the server using Actionscript? For example, I want to load all the mp3 files stored in a path on the server and I would like to assign a variable to hold the value for number of files. The variable is later being used for another purpose.
