ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Scripting Call The Sound From The Library At The Timeline?
Sep 12, 2002
I have a flash movie which has got 5 scenes and from scene 2 onwards i am using sound. In scene 1 I have made a prelaoder. My problem is that it starts loading sounding in scene 1 frame 1. Is there any way by which the sound starts prelaoding in frame 2.
Problem 2.I am using same sound in different scenes timeline. How can we by flash scripting call the sound from the library at the timeline.I am using F 5.
I have a 'back,play,stop,next btn in my playa...how to call sound files from the library and play them each time I press the 'Next' btn & the previous sounds files played in order when i press the 'back' btn?
how to call a button. I have a main file ("AS3Build.fla"), which imports an xml file, and imports different swfs depending on which node in the xml is being referenced. One of the swfs("slide_01_03.swf") I'm importing has a button("btn_01_01") that I'm having trouble accessing. First of should the script for the button be in the swf that holds the button, or the main file that will be importing the swf? I've got it in the swf currently with a trace file to see if it's recognizing the click. So far not luck. So I'm starting to think it should be in the main fla, and be referenced something like: this.loader.addEventListener.btn_01_01. This doesn't seem to work either though.
I'm looking to start learning a scripting language for web audio and sound development. It needs to be able to handle simultaneous audio events, eg; to trigger a sound when another is playing (I'm not sure if and how this is possible, but have witnessed this kind of presentation: [URL] (can this kind of thing be done with JavaScipt?, this looks like AS / Flash)).
From what I can tell the choice appears to be between JavaScript (JS) and ActionScript (JS), with details as follows: - If going the JS route (look into JS and HTML(5) audio capability) Learn about the basics of HTML and CSS, and then start to look into JavaScript, Ajax, and JQurey (library / framework for JavaScript). If going the AS route Will not need to know as much about HTML and CSS. AS is the language behind Flash. Not supported on the i-phone(?) I know Java to around an intermmediate level.
I've embedded a SWF into a class using this syntax above my class definition:
[Embed (source='/../assets/MyMovieClips.swf', symbol='SpecialMovieClip')] public class SpecialMovieClip extends MovieClip
The MovieClip asset seems linked with my class okay, and instantiates along with it, and is visible, but:
I can't access instances placed on stage within that clip. The timeline scripting seems non-functional.
Is this the drawback of embedding SWF files at compile-time with the Flex SDK? So, maybe I should just go back to compiling with the Flash IDE if I want timeline scripting or instances positioned on-stage?
I am a main timeline, with a movie clip that I want to loop infinitly, until a button is clicked, once the button is clicked I want it to stop the movie clip timeline, once the button is clicked again I want it to start the movie clip timeline again.
I am not the greatest actionscripter, I understand it I just have a bit of trouble writing the syntax myself.
In Flash 10/AS3, I added some sound and it seems to be working alright, but I think I'm doing it wrong. I imported the sound into the library, but I believe that it's reloading it from the folder with the swf/sound. I'm loading them like so:
I have an array of strings. Each string is a name of a class. How can I call the library item with the class name that corresponds to the string in the array?
I want to attach a sound to the main timeline (rollover sound) that i can call from on(rollover) button events. I will be attaching the same sound to several buttons.

I wanted to make live drums play with keyboard shortcuts. The problem was that MP3 is not good enough in this case (encoders adds random silence at beginning of the sound) and also flash itself makes delay (I tried use already buffered file with play specified_start_point_in_miliseconds)). So my solution is OGG (this format is gapless). I use compiled swc file from Adobe Alchemy library and simple frontend for it. Everything works fine, OGG file is playing, but its still much delay - no matter if its lodeaded external or as embedded, and if its first or n time. How to make sound play fast equally to key press.
Here is my very simple example code: import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.events.*; import flash.utils.ByteArray; import flash.events.SampleDataEvent; import com.mauft.OggLibrary.OggStream; import com.mauft.OggLibrary.OggEmbed; [Code] .....
I'm trying out FlashCS5 in an iMac running Snow Leopard. I'm putting in the timeline an mp3 sound I imported to the library. When I test the movie I get this message: When I test the swf, I get no animation and no sound. I tried changing the settings in the Advanced AS3 Settings to Default Linkage to from "Runtime Shared Libraries" to "Merged int code". The message goes away but the test still fails.
I'm having a little issue with the sound on my flash website. The way my site is set up so far is that after the preloader, i have an enter site page that holds there until the user clicks on the "enter site" button. Once they click that button it takes them to the site. I would like to add 2 different sound files to this. One file for the enter site that loops over and over until the user enters the site and then that sound file will stop and the other sound file will start.
When I tried this I could not get the first sound file to quit playing once you enter the site. So basically when I am on the "enter page" it's playing the looping file fine but when I click "enter site" it plays the other audio file on top of the one looping. I hope this makes sense.
i trying reuse a function many times so i decide to put it inside the timeline and whenever the movieclip move it will call the function, but it dont work. -_-
I have a Flash piece that has one main timeline that loads different movie clips and different sections of that main timeline.
On those embedded movie clips within the main timeline are sounds attached to the embedded movieclips timelines set to "stream". They have to be on the timeline so they sync up correctly (I can't load the sounds programatically).
I'm having the issue that when I navigate to a new section on the main timeline, the movieclip that was embedded on the timeline I navigated away from goes away, but the sound continues to play. I can't figure out how to get the sound to stop once I've navigated away.
I can't add a stop all sounds because the navigation of the movie is controlled from an external player I don't have control over (basically the external player just calls a gotoAndStop("myFrame") on the movie.)
I need to access information of a sound placed on the timeline of my swf. I can't use as3 to trigger them because it must be synchronized with visual stuff on the timeline. Other reason is that I'd like to diplay a caption text of the sound (stored in some xml files). For this to be possible I need the name and length of the sound on the timeline to show the caption text properly, at the rigth time / duration. I googled if there is a way to access a sound on a timeline and it seems impossible.
I have added some three sound clips, play pause buttons, on the root timeline in a movie with corresponding callouts. I am able to stop all sounds on the main timeline by below
stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopSound); function stopSound(event:MouseEvent) { SoundMixer.stopAll(); }
But now how do I resume all the sound to play. In sort, mute unmute root sounds in AS3.
I'm having trouble trying to manipulate music using buttons. I can't seem to make music1 autoplay and loop when the movie starts. I want to stop music1 and play music2 when I press a button:
music1 in main timeline button to change music is inside a movie clip so far here is the code I found on the internet but I'm not sure how I can change it to do what I need:
var mySound:Sound; var myChannel:SoundChannel; var isPlaying:Boolean = false; var isPaused:Boolean = false;
does anyone know if it's possible to use variables to call objects from your library onto stage like this:I have an object in my library called Level01 as is it's linkage
Actionscript Code: var MyMap:String = "Level01";addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,LoadMap);function LoadMap(event:Event) { var myLVL:MovieClip = new MyMap();// how do you use the variable
I need to develop something with data structure and how do I import the library as3ds (url...) and call the function of the library? It is in swc file format for the new version. While the older as3ds is in as format.
I´ve made a site for myself in flash (AS 2) and it works great. But one thing that I havent got the knowledge for is that I would like to have my own sound library.Anyway what I want is a xml updatable library, a simple list of sounds for visitors to download for free! A preview of the sound is also something that I need. The sounds are mostly very short sounds, so a rollover should work i think.[code]If there is someone here who would like to help me with this? Just to get me started. I fully understand if someone here thinks like, wow thats alot to ask for! how rude and so on, but if there is someone that maybe thinks that this could be fun or interesting and would like to give it a shot.
I simply want to be able to write a function within a class that swaps a button or movie clip on the stage (that sits within another movie clip)with another button/movie clip that is located within the library.I have attempted the addChild() method but that doesn't seem to be working so well...e.g.clipOnstage.myBtn.addChild("libraryClip")....was just hoping it would replace the mc that is already within the display object container (kind of like what loadMovie used to do in as2)
I'm working with a UILoader, and I will have it display images; but the images have to be in the library to cut down on overall content size. So I have to somehow refer to images in the library by code to display in the UILoader. How can I do that?
