ActionScript 2.0 :: Importing Sounds From External SWF?
Dec 2, 2005
but I still somehow cant get it to work! I've spent hours surfing around and trying to fix it but I guess I've reached a dead end. This is how my .fla files are.One contains the sound. The .fla is called Track2.fla.In it, I've imported a .wav file and set the Linkage to export for AS and export in first frame. The identifier is "Track2".
on the first frame of the timeline, I added this code:
trackMusic = new Sound(this);
trackMusic.attachSound("Track2");
[code].....

I am using Soundbooth to record some sounds. I'm trying to save them as either a MP3 or WAV,but no matter bitrate I use for either file type, I get an error when I try to import it into Flash. I have the newest QT installed from the wormy fruit vendor, does not make a difference. I can save it as an .asnd and import it just fine, but that file type is huge.The files that give me the error open just fine by themselves in WMP

Main swf loads an external swf which has a linear voice-over. User can watch/listen the whole 5 minute piece and then main movie carries on OR User can click to go on without viewing/listening to the whole show. Using removeChild, I can kill the visuals, but the voice track still goes on. i added a SoundMixer.stopAll line, and it does kill the current VO clip, but the next one will play in a few seconds. In the external swf, i'm using timers to delay slide advancement while the voice over plays. Seems like I came across some info that says I cannot fully unload like this with timers in my external swf.
Does this sound like a plausible source of the problem? If so, what is the best way to kill/nullify the timers in the external swf?

I did a search here and I am not sure my question was answered exactly, and even if it was, I wouldn't know it. My problem is going above and beyond what the project calls for. So here we go:I have an external swf that I have loading in when you press a "play" button. Now I need to have a button that stops the sound ONLY on the externally loading swf. I assume from what I have Googled to death that this is called "stopping all sounds". I have also come upon a sound mixer dealy-o, but I'm not sure that is what I am trying to do?????I keep reading about SoundMixer.stopAll (); but this looks to mute the sound all together with no use of a button. So I am ASSUMING that there is more code to add to this when it comes to using a button.
So, I would like to know the EXACT code I need to use to get it working...if at all possible. I named my sound button "btn3_btn" and my mute button "btn4_btn" for now. I want a separate button to turn the sound back on once it has been muted.

I am building a small quiz in flash, where the user gets a question and 3 answers, that is both shown in text and read as external sound (mp3). I am calling a function to show and read the next answers when the first answer has been read. The text is shown immidately but the sound takes around 6-7 secs. to load......(and it is only 60 kb) how can I avoid this?
My function looks something like this
function readAnswer(){
my_sound=new Sound();
my_sound.loadSound("answer1.mp3",true);
my_sound.onSoundComplete = function() {
trace("answer finish");
//next answer
_root.readAnswer();
}}

swf into an already existing .swf and still retain it as a .swf and not have it convert to a Movie Clip. I want it to load at the time not in the initial load when people are on the first 'page' or scene. I am constructing the webpage in Flash. Right now when I import the .swf to the library it automatically changed to a Movie Clip and when it is played it is loosing the pre-loader I have put on because its reading it as a movie clip now and not as the .swf.

I have one of these XML driven Flash templates and I have several links that open _blank pages, I would like to stop the background music when they are clicked. I know I need a root stop all function and I think I would then define that function in the <link></link> tag in the XML...

I want to write a function that will load all of my external sounds stored in an array which are just strings of their filenames ie:
var soundList:Array = new Array();
soundList = ["sound1.wav", "sound2.wav", etc];
And create a new array with sound Objects that will have the sounds loaded in them (for later execution). After loading all of the sounds in the soundList array, the function should return or just set a _root value to 'true' ie:

I have a game where sounds are triggered when things happen. These sounds need to be loaded externally so they can be changed. It seems like the sound class is just for loading streaming sound files. Is there a good way to load in these sounds and then have them triggerable and controllable by game events?

I'm having some problems with importing classes in AS3. I'm kinda new to flash and programming in general. I searched on these forums and couldn't find anything in regards to importing an external class. I'm trying to import the tweener class and I used the code: import caurina.transitions.Tweener; on the first frame of the symbol I'm trying to load the class in. But I get a syntax error and an error that says "statement must appear within on/onclipevent handler".

I am working in Flash CS4 (AS3).What I have created is basically a simple photo gallery. About 5 thumbs that when rolled over a larger version appears. Both the thumbnail images and larger images are loading dynamically.I've got that working.What it's missing is a headline and a sub headline for each pic that comes up. I need to do this from an external text file.
I was able to do this with AS2.AS3 not so much. How do I control the content of multiple dynamic text boxes on different places throughout the timeline with an external text file in AS3? I just want to name different text boxes different names and have the external text file pass the variables into my swf for each text box.

Basically I am making a website and have made separate swf files for the individual pages, partially because of the size they are and the amount of time it initially took to load.
I invented the function RevCont
ActionScript Code:[code]....
which uses the variable PAGEURL, so on the click of a button, PAGEURL becomes relavent to that page, for example
ActionScript Code:
_root.button001_btn.onRelease = function () {
PAGEURL = "001_stationery_printing.swf";[code].....
Now this works fine and dandy... except for the actionscript embedded within that external swf file becomes inactive... buttons don't work, external images aren't loaded and i'm left looking at a green box (my loader mc).The only thing that does work, is the stop(); function...

I've incountered a problem that I need help figuring out...I'm using dynamic buttons to load external swfs into an area within an interface on level0. There is an actionScript on a button that has been duplicated dynamically..The external swf is loaded into a host mc called "subpage_mc". The swf that should be loaded, is indicated within an array in the first frame of _level0.
Here's actionScript on button before dynamic duplication:_level0.loadMovie(link,"subpage_mc");
The script works, but it replaces the interfacce completely on leve0. I want the new swf to load into level0 and for the interface to be visible at all times, not to be replaced. Does this issue have to do with instance stacking order? How should I make sure that this doesn't happen?

I'm trying to write a gallery application in Flash (AS3). It uses a simple XML document to specify a series of images like this:
Code:
<Gallery name="foo">
<Image src="foo/1.jpg" />
<Image src="foo/2.jpg" />
[Code]....
I have a class which parses the XML and displays the images (which sit locally, relative to the .swf file accordiing to the 'src' properties in the XML above) in a UILoader instance. This works great until I move the .swf file somewhere else, as the images aren't part of the compiled file, and obviously it's now looking for them in the wrong place.
I understand that you can use [Embed] to embed assets into your code (this is how I include the XML document), but I can't use it to embed the images. Is there a way I can embed the images in my flash document, and address them using the src values obtained from my XML?

I initiated a project. I put the external .as files into the appropriate folders, labeled the packages, bind them to their related library objects and so on. Everything is working fine..
Now, what I have here is another .as file that is performing an algorithm, and thus, not directly related to a library object. I put it in a folder, named its package accordingly, and imported it in my main .fla, like all the others. BUT I don't bind it (it's called binding right?) to a library object. So, when I call the class, it simply gives "Type was not found" error.. can't I call an external .as file WITHOUT binding it to an object. Or should I just made up an empty MovieClip and bind the file to it? It just not seems right to me..

I'm experiencing a major setback as i cannot get this to work at all. I'm using the scrollpane component so all textfields must be in a separate mc, and should be displaying vars from an external as file. I have an import set up on the first frame of the main timeline and all the references inside the main timeline are correct:
Code:
import Variables;
var variables:Variables = new Variables();
the problem starts when displaying data onto the tf's inside the mc, which all return as their initial hardcoded values (not reflecting any changes made throughout the game) I use the code above for the import inside the mc aswell (coz i dont know any better) but it's as it creates another instance of variables.as to use within the mc only. If i change values within the mc's code they'll reflect but that's not what im looking for at all.
So my question is, is there any other way to import an external as file inside a movieclip to reflect the changes made to the values on the main timeline? Do i import it in a different manner, or approach it from a different direction, save its contents just before going to the frame containing the mc?

I followed the mp3player tutorial (part 3) from [URL] and got it working fine. Only problem is that the setVolume I'm trying to use with my music is affecting all my other sounds - button sounds and background sound. I'm aware of the createEmptyMovieClip/attachSound approach and got it working on my other sounds. But Lee's tutorial-mp3player is using a slight different technique, and so my normal approach doesn't quite work.

I want to synchronize sounds perfectly to do a kind of Audio Mixer, using different sounds. [URL] does it perfectly, I've been researching and researching and I just don't know how to do it! How does [URL] synchonize audio so perfectly? you can even change sounds and the new ones will come on time! How do I do that? Is it just Action Script? or something else?

Flash, for whatever reason has completely stopped allowing my external files to communicate with one another. In order to confirm this I ran a few tests. I have two very simple actionscript files Main.as and TestDialog.as.
Main.as is as follows
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
Every time i run my program it throws error 1180 method test possibly undefined.If i try and run the constructor function TestDialog() i get the incorrect number of arguments error.

I'm making a game where I have a lot of movie clips that I need to load so I was wondering wheather ActionScript 3.0 allowed us to load external movieclips? Can we import an external display object (movieclip) into a display object container? Or do I have to load a .swf which contains the movieclip onto the stage? What happens if I need to pull in multiple .swf files can the movieclips overlap or will one .swf file block the user from viewing the .swf in a lower depth? Can I import the movieclip from the external .swf file from its library and add it to the main stage rather then adding the whole .swf to the main stage?

I'm importing a cool external photo gallery .swf; however I can't figure out the stage settings. I created an empty movie clip and added the import script in there. Works good and can align clip where I want, but the .swf file is not appearing as a 550px X 413px contained .swf. It stretches to fit the main stage.

I'm importing external vars using loadVariablesNum() from .txt files. I know that each variable must be surrounded by amperstands (&) in order define the start and end of each variable.
ie:
Code:
&var_1=abc&
&var_2=xyz&
And then I want to use something like:
[AS]mc.gotoAndPlay(_level#.var_1);[/AS]
But my question is (for simplicity), is there a way to do this if the amperstand at the end is not included, such as:
ie:
Code:
&var_1=abc
&var_2=xyz
Flash returns the first variable above as var_01="abc " which is understandable since it was not closed properly. However, I want to be able to use the gotoAndPlay(); with var_01="abc ". I have tried labelling the frame with abc , but that didn't work.
I also tried using frame_array = new Array(_level#.var_1.split("")); and then said gotoAndPlay(frame_array[0]); but for some reason I couldn't get this to work either....
