I know how to turn music on/off but I now want to find out how to do the following. On 50cent.com, you can select from a variety of songs, then play the one you wish. I want to know how to do that, with the buttons changing the songs, then being able to press play, and stop. Could someone tell me how to do this, or redirect me to a tutorial that will teach me. I have flash mx, so you could post a flash mx tutorial if you wish. Another example is shown on West49.com, but I dont need to know how to open the playlist option they have. Just a simple left and right button changing the songs, thena a play and a stop button.
Is it possible to have one button the toggle my 'my_sound.setVolume();' between 0 and 100. I'm having a hard time getting the as correct, but here is my idea:
I have a number of different music selections on each on their own layer. Is there a way to simply turn off the sound in a layer so I can test different music tracks without having to delete the layer and drag a new sound in? In short when I preview my movie all of the sounds play at once but is there a way to simply turn off the sounds in each layer to test each music track separately.
I have a AS3 Android Application that is playing background music but when the user leaves the application, the music still is playing in the background. Is there a method to call that senses the user leaving the application so that I can turn off my music?
I have a website that reloads same flash swf on different pages. It has music attached to the swf file. My question is how to make people turn off music on a single page and when they look at other pages, the pages remain 0 volume, and when they turn on the music on a single page, it globally turn on all other swf files music.
I'll start off by saying I'm a newbie, just putting that out there. How do you make a turn by turn multiplayer flash game? I don't know if an engine is made in AS3, PHP, Javascript, or whatever,I made my game already, it's just that it isn'tmultiplayer yet. Basically, there are lines, and each player crosses out a number of lines, and the last player to cross out a line is the loser. I want it where one user crosses out some lines, then presses End Turn, then the other does their turn and then presses End Turn to allow the other player to move his cursor. But how can I get both players to see the same frame and only have one player have the ability to move the cursor during a turn? Is there some easily adaptable multiplayer engine for flash for newbies out there
I want a site to have background music, but when I attach the music to the file it makes it quite large ...3 meg and the site is slow to load. Is there any way of having the music separate from the flash file and still have start stop music buttons?
I'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
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.
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 streaming music from my site using flash, but after the 3rd music is done, it just stops. Do i have to flush something or create a new music object for each 3 songs?
I have 'Sound On' and 'Sound Off' buttons on mutiple scenes and I am playing the music loop in my flash movie by loading an external swf. When I move to the next scene the sound reloads which I do not want. How do I use an if-statement that checks whether or not the music.swf, that needs to be loaded is found and when it is found, go to a frame?
What is technical difference between buffering and loading ? Say, i have a video, which is showing loader bar in progress. Then what's happening exactly ? Buffering or Loading ?
I have a website banner made in Flash. I have added a music file to it and Play and Stop buttons. I also have a Replay button to replay the banner animation once it stops.
I have put the music on a separate frame so that it will not play automatically when the banner loads. I have made the Play button direct to the frame the music is located at so that when clicked, it will go to that frame and play the music file.
The problem I am currently having is that if I click the Play button more than once, it will play the music file again on top of the current play-through.
So if I click Play, the music will play. Then if I click it again, the music will play again, but on top of the first instance of the music, so two instances of it will now be playing and it sounds horrible.
I would like to make it so that if you click Play when the music is playing, it will not play the music again until the music has stopped.
ok i have a music off button...i want the text to change from "music off" to "music on" and for the actionscript code to change so that the music will turn on when you press on and not off when you press on.
Would I use attachMovie and just convert my button to a movieclip or is there another way? etc, loadmovie.
I know there is an easy answer to this and it is at the tip of my tounge.
Im working on a project where i have to develop an audio application for an android smart phone, but i have to present a mock app so i designed it in flash. I have a rough app where it loads the song, plays, pauses, foward, and previous, but im stuck flash isn't my first language, as you can tell from the attached .as file there are two things i need help in one is: when one clicks the next button the audio clip from the current song should fade out and the next song should fade in while the other song fades out. second thing is i don't know how to get a working seek bar for the player.
I have some sounds in a timeline ( i purposely put them on time line rather then through AS3). But is there a way to turn off all sound in the swf, like is there a global sound channel?
Is there any way to turn off the autodocking panels. I just want my panels to be free floating and not stick together. The way they dock and stick together is the worst.
How do you turn off the sound in a game only? I ask because I have two buttons in my settings: turn music on/off and sound on/off. turning music on and off is really easy because it uses a specific sound channel. But How do you turn off the volume the sound only (e.g. music is still playing but not the sound of the game)?
When I mute the sound via SoundMixer.soundtransform you can't hear anything so that's not what I wanted to have. In my game all sounds are thrown into an array. My first idea was that I go through all sounds listed in the array and turn off the volume but that's not working.
Code: //not working private var sounds:Array; private var soundChannels:Array = [];
I have a FLA file with 4 layers 2 of the layers are Text Boxes 2 of them are masks to make the different words "Shine" Is there a way to make the whole file a button so when people click on it, it goes to a different page?
I have 9 fla files. Is there anything I can do to create 1 swf out of 9 separate fla files??? I tried to cut and past the info all onto 1 timeline. Is there more than one way to do this?? I end up with multiple files with the same name in the library and it becomes a bit of a nightmare just trying to use the cut and past method.
I know virtually nothing about Flash so I'm kind of casting about in the dark.
I have the misfortune of being a BT customer, and whilst I have reasonable bandwidth (can view streaming high res video fine) I always have problems listening to radio programmes from the BBC. I think it could be buffering due to traffic shaping, or it could be the Flash applet used to play the content, or something else.
Is it possible to bring up some kind of debugging console, or view some kind of error log to see if there is some diagnostic information that could be useful in finding the problem?
