I saw many flash web sites that has multiple music tracks to choose. I would like to learn this nice feature. Is there a tutor? how i can add multiple soundtracks for my flash presentation, I know how to add one soundtrack into my flash movie but i don't know how add several music tracks and how to make button to load one and unload the other.
View 1 RepliesI need to play three musical tracks one after the other in a circle. It is necessary that its are not loaded again and were in the cache. I use this code. Everything works fine on localhost, but only works after restart the app on the server. And wrong to re-download tracks every time.

optObj.music - it is the object with the parameters that is called when the app starts or when i call a function change the settings.
I'm trying to create a music bar that will have next/prev track buttons.I thought of creating an array of the tracks and navigating through the array.Naming the tracks "track1", "track2" etc, start with track1 and increase the number after every pass through the loop. Although I thought of these I could not get the code to work.

View 1 RepliesThe other is a scrub that manipulates a MovieClip, but tracks a change in mouse position from click to release, instead of tracking the changes in position of a slider playhead. But here is the download for that one:(sorry not a link due to not having over 50 posts yet, you will need to copy and paste)I have found plenty of AS1+2 ways of doing this idea, yet just haven't found any solid AS3 versions.I am currently in a class to learn Actionscript and have tried to figure out this problem yet I am just not yet to that level.
View 0 Repliesok 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.
I have a Flash 8 site that plays background music.I would like to be able to change the music depending on which page the visitor is on. So when the user clicks on a page on the menu and the site shows the page that the user selected, the music also changes depending on which page the user selected. Right now the music is on the main timeline and set to Loop.

I followed it exactly and the button worked fine with the music,
but then i stated to add keyframes, it works fine carys on playing on every keyframe i go to, but the problem is when i go back to the first keyframe the music still goes on which is good, but its starts again over the one thats already playing!
Everything works perfect but i need to change the way the MP3 file is called on. I'm brand new with AS3 and XML but have a PHP background so I attempted to understand the script and have not had any luck. The index.htm file displays a very simple music player which calls on the button_mp3_player SWF. The FLA has a portion of code that calls on an XML file to load a particular song. What I need to do is remove the XML file completely and define the MP3 file name in the index.htm. I assume some AS3 code needs to be altered so that it does not call on the XML and also that the index.htm code needs to be altered to define the MP3.

how to change the volume, asking how to detect the actual volume (not the set 100 volume) of music/sounds. does flash even detect the actual volume output? So when the volume is 0 (e.g. maybe at the end of a song) the ._alpha is 0, so all I need is a variable for the output volume of a song.
View 1 RepliesI 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?
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 RepliesI 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 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?

View 1 RepliesA quick question. Is it possible to play a mp4 video file with 2 audio tracks in it and switch between the two audio tracks? In stead of subtitles we want to provide the user with audio in their own language. As a test I received a mp4 video file with 2 audio tracks, an English and a German. When I load and play the mp4 video file I default hear the English audio track. Is it possible to switch to the German audio track?
View 5 RepliesI'm a games design student from the UK I'm currently working on a music project. for this I want to create a soundboard where the user can select a multiple number of files and then play them as one track, my plan is to record background, rhythm, melody and random event tracks and have the user select one of these elements from each bank of samples and have a button for them to hear the outcome.So far i can get the soundboard elements to work, but no matter where i look or who i ask no one seems to know how to make this idea work, someone suggested using an array but when i started looking at arrays there seems to tutorials on creating them but not implementing them.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a mp3 album collection project and I am using Mediaplayback component for playing the mp3 files, a List component to show all the tracks (and select one) and the songlists are stored in XML data located in one folder for each album. It is working fine, but I want to have a button to "Play all tracks" like when you place a CD in the Windows Media Player, that is, starting playing the first track and so on.... until the last one.
Here are the parts for the mediaplayback:
lista.addEventListener("change", ifchanging);
function ifchanging(evento) {
if (evento.type == "change") {
[Code]....
But it just play the last track. I think it must go on one of the events or in a if..else including the EventListener... I'm just beginning on ActionScripting and I am using parts of what I saw in other codes.

that is for when you click (or press) on a selected item in the "lista" List.

for (var i = 0; i<num_total; i++) {
player.setMedia(urlnow+"/"+lista.selectedIndex[i].data, "MP3");
player.play();

I am looking to replicate the way the music tracks are presented on this website:[URL].. I'd like to create something somewhat similar, in which I can simply type out the name of each track and then have the small Play/Pause button icon. Are there any templates that are packaged with Flash CS4 for something like this? Otherwise, if you could point me in the right direction as to how it is constructed and/or a tutorial for creating. - But is the text that lists the tracks done in HTML? If so, then this is pretty simple really.

I need to do some banners in which an invisible car follows a guide path, generating tire tracks that fade over time. I know how to do it "the hard way" with masks, but there are many formats for the banner, so it would be a lot of tweaking and ajusting for each one. Is there a way in AS2 to dinamically generate the tire tracks and make them follow a designated path (that contains curves)? It would help me a lot to simply adjust each path for different banners, rather than to redraw the whole stuff each time.
View 4 RepliesWe're creating video that is destined for multiple countries - we've created a framework that has a video page (using the FLV playback component, w an external FLV w/ progressive download) for the given languages we're using, and subtitles for each, etc.. Until now, we've been using the same English video & audio for each, but the client is looking into having the videos dubbed into different languages.
We're hoping to avoid re-encoding the video for each language in order to accommodate for the different audio tracks. Also, having different video files for each language would mean using more storage (since we're talking about a lot of video files, so it adds up). Is there a way to use FLV playback to progressive download an FLV file (video only) while playing a separate mp3 file? Most inquiries into playing separate audio and video has led me to embedding video, which isn't feasible in our case.
