ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloading The Attached Sound?
Dec 29, 2005
I have read lots of posts with similar problems, however, my preloader is slightly different as it is a separate file altogether. I have attached a sound on frame 50 of my movie using 'attach sound'.It plays fine. On my linkage I have ticked 'export on first frame'. When this is not ticked it does not play. So I left it ticked.
My preloader is a seperate .swf that loads the movie that has the sound.I can tell the sound has loaded as the preloader takes a lot longer. However, when the movie has loaded and begins to play the sound just does not exist. Or it is shy and does not want to talk.I can't do the thing everyone is suggesting (moving sound to frame 3 and unchecking 'export on first frame', then modifying my preloader script) because my preloader is separate to my movie.

I have a button with a sound attached to it. The button should play the sound when the mouse is in its down state. When I play the sound in the .swf file the sound plays but it's cut off at the end (maybe the last 3 seconds). I'm using mp3 files for the sound. This is happening with many of the buttons in the program. It's a simple operation within the program. The user clicks a button and voice-over is supposed to play.

I have the following problem. I have a attachSound for three wav files in the library. This is the code:
Code:
song1 = new Sound();
song1.attachSound("song1");
song2 = new Sound();
[code].....
This is also working.When I press the button the music stops. When I press the song1 button, song1 start playing again. But when I press on of the othet two buttons nothing happens. This is the code for the buttons:
Code:
on (release){
_root.mc_menu.song1.start();
_root.mc_menu.song2.stop();
_root.mc_menu.song3.stop();
}

What is the best way to attached sound to my movie. I used to used the sound obejct as such:
my_Sound_sound = new Sound();
mySound_sound.attachSound("soundID");
But by under the linkage menu I am only able to select export in the first frame. Which makes my first frame super huge. Than my preloader will not load until the sound, so it is no good.

I have a sound SWF that plays fine on its own. But when I attach it to the main timeline of another SWF there's no sound. How do I need to reference the Sound object and vars to get the Sound to play?
Here's the code for the sound SWF:
Code:
var mainLoop:Sound = new Sound();
mainLoop.attachSound("mainPageLoop");
// Starts at beginning and loops 2 times.

AS in frame 1:
[Code]....
the MC soundLoader is there on the stage, and the file is linked correctly from the library, meaning that it works (the movie makes a single sound when the mouse hovers over it), except that the attached sound plays immediately when the swf loads. This is annoying on a page with about 16 of these!

We are working at a complex AS3.0/Flash game project, where we need to preload and cache around 70 movie files with sound. But somehow the preloaded videos all seem to block a sound channel and so some sounds are not played in the game, as we seem to exceed the 32 sound channels. I cannot provide any technical details at the moment, but I will add them as soon as the developer in charge is back in the office.

I've run into some trouble with making a preloader for my flash file. First I went ahead and made an external preloader that loaded in the swf file - but then all my audio did not play (they are called upon as sound objects). Found this out because the file is loaded into the preloader but not the audio files from the library???
But if I put the preloader in the actual flash file it's kind of useless as it wants to preload all the audio on the first frame. Now I went ahead and changed it to load on frame 2 or 3 (using the publish settings to set "Export frame for classes") but now the audio will not play at all!
Are preloaders doomed to fail in AS2 when there is audio files being called within the library as sound objects??

I've got an array of Strings each of which have been input by a series of coloured buttons with sounds attached. When a play button is pressed the strings that correspond to different coloured sounds should play one after the other. Instead they all play at the same time as one jumbled mess of noise and I have tried everything to get it to work. The trace shows that the for loop through the array seems to be doing the right thing which is why I can't understand why it won't just play back one after the other.
This is the code for the play button:
PlayBTN.onRelease = function(){
trace("PlayButton Pressed");
for(var i:Number =0; i<songArray.length; ++i){
trace("Inside Loop");
trace(i);

I am triggering short sounds dynamically from the library for a game (Specifically Air for Android). When the user clicks a button the sound can take up to 600ms to actually play. I have set it for any silence before the actual sound by calling the sound like so:

All return the same results. I know there are threads here that talk about this but none have offered a real solution that I can find. Is there no way to cache the sound or store it in a buffer?

I have a flash header that was never completed because the guy I hired took people's money and ran. So now I even wonder if what he said could work with my flash header is true or not. But, usually there is always a way to make it work.
I have a flash header that does two important things: 1) Upon entering the site, it loads and plays an audio track 2) Makes an animal noise when you hover over each animal menu item. (not sure if I'm able to give a link to it or not on here. If I able to and someone would like to see it let me know)
I want to know if my flash header can support the following additional functionality/changes:
1) Currently, it loads everytime a page is selected. I only want it to load the one time of entering the site because the audio gets annoying. Set a cookie maybe?
2) But, I do not want to turn the audio off completely because I still want the hover over each menu item sound.
3) Have a link on it to allow them to select to turn on / off the sound completely. It currently has that, but only for the current page. Once you select another page, the audio is back to on.
4) Lastlly, is there a way for it to detect that someone doesn't support flash and to display an html version of it? And can flash create a html version from my fla file?
I don't know much about flash (but am learning) so I'm not sure if I'll be able to do this myself. However, I want to find out if my flash header will even work this way before I invest the time learning it just for these changes. I know it will be pretty deep with script code, but I'm hoping I could find base code already available for these features. Not sure I can afford help now because of being laid off and two different scammers taking advantage of me. So I'm going to try to do myself and see if there is any suggestions/support on here that can help. I have Flash CS4.

Is there any AS3 library or code-snippet that can create altered versions of a Sound object on-the-fly (at runtime)? Either based on:
An existing Sound object; A ByteArray object;
For example, say you have a "dry" sound of a gun-shot. You could:

I am using a flash app. I can send and receive streaming data to FMS by using this app, like the chart I attached. [URL] This app uses RTMP to access to FMS. I want to upgrade this app to display sound level of each client. Is it possible by using Actionscript and FMS? If so, which class should I use?

I have a project that requires me to display the waveform for a uploaded sound. The sound is always an MP3, most of the time 22.05 kHz mono, with speech only. The project are written with Flex/ActionScript 3. It's meant to run in the browser, but might also consider converting to AIR if that can help.
All examples I've found and looked at for generating a wave, are either doing some visualization in real time as the sound is playing, or, the most promising, as3soundeditorlib, keeps the wave already generated, but does it very slowly, seemingly using as long time as playing through the audio would've taken.Is there any way to generate the wave faster than real time?

I am using the following to extract the byte info from a sound object - however if I go back to the same sound object and run this again, The byteArray has no bytes available.
var data:ByteArray = new ByteArray;
sound.extract(data,sound.length*44.1);
data.position = 0;
return data;
Is this the correct behavior? Is there not a way to do this multiple times on the same sound object?

I have some sounds in my library. They are all exported and have been given class names like C, D, E etc. I have another class that represents a button. This class stores a reference to one of the Sound in my library. I set the type for this variable to Sound. When I try to set it I get the error: cannot convert C$ to flash.media.Sound I try as Sound, for example key.note = note_array[p] as Sound; The value ends up as null.

I use Flash MX 6.0
1) I have a button and when I put cursor over it, it must start looping a sound. When I drag away, the sound must stop. I would be even cooler if it was possible to make the sound fade away when the mouse is rolled away. I have no problem creating another sound file that fades my current sound away.
2) I have a button which represents a knife, that should stab something (a panel) once pressed. So fist the knife must be clean. but after one or more presses, the blood should remain as a movie clip (as I want to animate the dripping blood)
3) once rolled over a button, the sound must start looping (as I wrote in 1.) AND the knife should slowly go backwards (MC). BUT when I roll mouse away, the sound fades away (as in 1. again) PLUS the knife should slowly move back to its place in stead of just jump from one place to another.

I'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");
