ActionScript 2.0 :: XML With Flash Project (organizing / Playing Songs)
Mar 5, 2010
I have a task. I must make an interface/application with a list of songs, alphabetically sorted by Genre / Mood. That also gives you the possibility to add more Genres/Moods and it should be easy to browse them. When a specific Genre/Mood is selected, the corresponding tracks appear, and when a specific track is selected, it should play in a player (see description below), and information about this track should also be displayed.
There should also be a Player included with Start/Pause/Stop buttons. It should be possible to see the full length of that track (time duration). There should be a loading bar and visible progression bar (like on Youtube) and it should be possible to drag in the progress bar to get to the specific point of the track. Is there a template for this sort of thing? Or how do I make this sort of menu? I guess it is some XML combined with some ActionScript?

What's the best way to organize functionality modules in a flex project? I saw some people put all modules in one view stack ,and so the application interface is only load once, but when the application get larger, the whole compiled swf would be very big. If we put swfs in different pages, we pass request parameters through HTTP request, we lost the benefits from flex RPC services, slow loading, and we can't see any superior comparing to php,asp,jsp... what's the best practice to organize front end architecture?

I really want to start work on a game idea I have using PaperVision.The largest/most complex thing in Flash I have ever made is probably my last project which is an interactive school map for my A Level [URL] . Check it out, its a little laggy in the browser but it is designed to run in the flash projector from the desktop.I used around 10 .as files and dumped all my graphics in 1 .fla as sprites and stuff.This is ok (...ish) as I had a large 'main' file and a massive 'main3d' file which (324 lines which is big for me :S lol).
Im planning on making it a big, 3D adventure style game with lots of elements and AI things. But how do I organise my code? If I continue like this, I'm going to have a few mahasssive files and lots of small ones.How to the 'pros' organise their stuff? All the time I see source codes for small experiments which are great, but I have never seen any layout overviews of what files they used and what kinds of things they put in them. I also have no idea how complex environments, where objects need to update to add/remove elements without having to check the position of the player every frame.

I've been using the following code to load a mp3 song which works fine:
myTunes = new Sound(audio_mc);
myTunes.loadSound("ihearsymphony.mp3", true);
myTunes.onSoundComplete = function() {
myTunes.start();
}
Now, I have a list of 5 different mp3 songs that I'd like to play one after another automatically.

I'm using Flash CS4 and I have a jukebox coded in AS3 to play songs 1-4.
If I click publish preview>Flash, everything works fine. The songs load, play, and can have their volumes adjusted.
If I export a swf file and the associated html file, along with the songs in the same directory structure as they were on my computer (in an audio folder in the same directory as the swf), the graphics show up, but the music doesn't play when I click the song buttons.
what I may have done wrong to go from a working publish preview of flash to a non-functional swf and html on the web?

I've been messing with this for almost six hours now and am at the end of my wits. I need a flash mp3 player that follows the following guidelines:
*all encased within its own movie clip
*loads four different songs, one after the other (event)
*each song displays its own loader
*user scrolls through song selection and plays available (loaded) ones
*first song plays when loaded and continues to the others
any tips on where to go with this? do I create four different sound objects since later songs are loading while the first are playing?

I have started a new fulltime job doing flash work (yay) and on my first two projects I keep running into a weird situation. For some reason the projects I create work just fine when tested on my development machine, but as soon as we try them on another machine in the office they will not work unless, we upload them to a webserver and view them from there.
I am working on and saving my files to a network drive on the server and can run them fine, but whenever anyone else with the same version of flashplayer and browser tries to run them off the same network drive they don't work? Now, I don't remember the exact error or problem with the first project, but on this second one I'm calling a function in a swf on a web page from javascript using AS3 ExternalInterface. On the other computers the browser reports a javascript error of "Object doesn't support this property or method" when once again, on my machine (and once posted online) works just fine. Also, before you start thinking it's a problem with ExternalInterface and javascript my first project was not using ExternalInterface or javascript calls.

I've downloaded the the Flash mp3 Player. I did some minor modifications to it and it works well. The only problem I have is that when the mute button is pressed, the current song is mute(s.setVolume(0)), but when the next song comes up, the mute button is not in mute state(Volume not set to 0). I want to keep the mute state unchanged when the songs are playing untill the mute button is pressed again.

I'm playing a song and syncing up some visual changes with that song. The issue is that in order for the song to play when I preview my changes to the animation, I have to start playing my flash project from frame 0. This becomes a problem when I am trying to sync to things that occur later in the song. For example, if I'm trying to sync something at frame 300 then I have to re-play the entire animation from frame 0 in order to hear the song at frame 300 and beyond.
Is there any way to get the song to play, starting from the correct position, regardless of where I start running my animation while developing? I could hack something up in action script to move the play head and play the song if it currently isn't being played but I'd rather not go down that route as there must be a simple solution to this problem.

Basically an array if fed to callThumbs() which iterates through it and compares the entries with preloaded XML _my_images. If match is found, it's sent to processXML which loads all relevant info and loads a .jpg thumbnail. All this is then fed to createCell which creates a specific cell with position values depending on x_counter and y_counter values (4 cells in a row) and adds the cell into a container _container_mc.
The Problem: This all works fine and looks fine, the problem is that the cells within the container do not display in descending order. They are in random order, probably because some of the .jpg's takes longer to load etc. How do I easily organise the cells within the container in descending order by the XML .id value? Or how do I tell Flash to wait till the thumbnail and data is loaded and the cell created and added?
//Flash (AS3)
function callThumbs(_my_results:Array):void { // selector = 1 for specific items, 2 for search items
var _thumb_url:XML;

I found this nifty code (here) for an MP3 player that uses XML/URLRequest to load the songs in.I'm trying to implement this code on my own application, and I've run into a couple of errors.I've got the XML loaded into the application, and it's showing up in a List component.But it's not letting me to play songs from it quite yet.This is the error I'm getting:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error.at BACKUPmusikkavspiller_mariuskristian_eksamenRIA_fla::wholeplayer_12/frame3()[BACKUPmusikkavspiller_mariuskristian_eksamenRIA_fla.wholeplayer_12::frame3:6][code3].......
I've read something about IOErrorHandlers, but I'm not quite sure how to use them, where to put them and what to read from them..If needed I'll paste my full code. The original code is from here <-, as posted above.

I have a music community website, visitors can sign up, upload mp3 files, their files get uploaded into their own folder named '$id' in the php code, (if they are the 10th member to sign up, their folder would be named 10, and so on)
I have a prebuilt flash player that I want to playback the mp3 files just for that member when their profile is being viewed, I have some code in the mp3 upload script that automatically writes an xml file to their folder containing their song data, with Andrei1's help, I got that part working using flashvars, now the problem I am having is that I can't get the songs to play back, the data is there but no music.
as I said I am using a prebuilt flash player that is using a static call to a directory, so should I use flashvars again to load the mp3 files into the player? and I also need help figuring out what to change in the actionscript.here is the object embed src for the html:
<param name="movie" value="flplayer1a.swf">
<embed src="flplayer1a.swf" FlashVars="xml=<?php echo "members/$id/playlist.xml" ?>"></embed>
<param name="FlashVars" value="xml=<?php echo "members/$id/playlist.xml" ?>">
and here is the actionscript code for the playback on frame 1
stop();
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.color = "0xFFFFFF";

I've recently started practising test driven development - thus far I've been working on a library project, so I've organised my FlexUnit tests in a separate FlexBuilder 3 project, linking against my library's swc.Now I'm working on a web app and wondering how best to organise the tests for this. At the moment I've put them in a src/test package in the project I'm testing, with the test runner application at the same level as the default application. Is this the best way to do it, or should I have a separate test project and link in the source for the application I'm testing?

I'm making the game Breakout as an AS3 application using OOP. I am getting very confused though. I know that objects should be only responsible for themselves. But this is where I get stuck, they need to communicate as some level to add and remove screens, and I am getting majorly confused as to what is going too far, when it could maybe achieved in a simpler more OOP way. I've worked out the hierarchy of my classes, in terms of where they are being added (I think). I've added a screenshot of the hierarchy.
Have I got the order right based on OOP principles? Like, Introscreen will listen for play being pressed then call a method of the document class that will remove introscreen and then attach gamescreen. Is that right? Another thing that puzzples me. It seems to me if I made a level and put the paddle and the ball in that, then arranged all the bricks in that level, that I'd be duplicating work (based on the fact I need paddle and ball for level 2 also). So it would be best if I could have gamescreen with paddle and the ball and then add level1/2/3 to display list which would therefore set up the appropriate brick placement. But then, wouldn't that mean that I couldn't do hittests because my level 1/2 or 3 wouldn't be a sibling to the bat and the ball, them residing as a sibling in the level's parent class?

I'm wondering what the process would be for importing the filenames of songs minus the .mp3 extension into Flash would be? I want to import the filenames, and then create a for loop that goes through and adds some html tags to each name, and eventually I'll spit out a text file of it all for me to copy and import into a search function on a webpage. I think I can work through the latter, but I was wondering how to originally import the filenames into a swf?

In an attempt to organize my code, I'm trying to split up my (lengthy) main controller class into separate files, but my new files must still have access to the variables and functions of the main controller class.I'm trying to cut and paste code from my controller class into a new class/file, allowing the controller class to call the new class, and allowing the new class to have access to the controller class's properties and function.Assuming I'm not totally bludgeoning appropriate design patterns, below is my unsuccessful attempt at accomplishing this task:
