I embeded an mp3 into a movie clip, and the source mp3 is professional quality, yet the embedded clip sounds horrible.
Is there a way to toggle any settings when importing a sound clip into the library?
Is it possible to load a symbol from the library into an empty movie clip using an array?
I have a toggle button that used a text field originally and an array was used in the toggle function to switch the text in that field. The client requested to have icons instead of text so I created symbols in the library and tried to use attachMovie but didn't work.[code]...
Creating the necessary code to make a mute/unmute button in ActionScript 2? I would like the "toggle" button to control a specific sound clip only -- not any other sound within my presentation. Basically I have an intro animation of about 20 seconds that has background music to it. I would like to add a mute toggle button that controls only this music clip and not any other sound found within my presentation. Is this possible? I've seen code for "globally" muting or stopping sounds. I need code for just a specific music clip (sound object?).
View 6 RepliesI'm new to flash and just need to do a simple task but I can't manage to get it to work. I'm trying to import a video (flv) into a SWF container and need to AS functions which should be exposed to JS (using liveconnect or anything else). These two function should toggle sound on/off and toggle play/pause. I dont need any user interface or a full featured player, just these two functions.
View 1 RepliesI am importing a picture in flash and i found out that there is a difference between importing to the stage, and importing to the library... [URL] I've placed both picture close of each other and if you look closely, you'll notice that one of them is losing some resolution. Both picture come from the same file, a png. The picture imported to the stage is sharper than the one imported to the library. is there a way to import that picture to the library without losing any resolution?
View 5 RepliesI have imported my wav files to my library added them to the down state of my buttons and when I test the file I get (Sound has no valid device sound path although exporting device sounds was requested in the export settings. This sound will be ignored.) I have been surching for an answer but as of yet have found none.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to change a Flash animation into a Quicktime movie to post to YouTube, which I've done with a much smaller file, but have had trouble with a larger 2.6M file. When testing Flash movie I get dialog box saying- Content will not stream... Change Runtime Shared Library Library > Advanced ActionScript 3.0 in Publish Settings. So I enter Publish Settings, on Formats I leave Flash and HTML checked. Select center tab for Flash, click on settings for ActionScript 3.0 in scripting box. In Advanced ActionScript Settings dialog at the bottom I've tried changing the Runtime Shared Library drop down to the Merged into Code option but it didn't help. The other option is the Preloader Method, where I think the problem is, but when it is changed form Preloader SWF to custom the Preloader SWF box at the very bottom empties and when the movie is published I get a warning of no Librarys linked and when movie is played int the Quicktime player some of the animations fragment and leave the fragment as remnants.
View 3 RepliesI have a button, just one button, that I want to be able to use to toggle sound on and off. On the button I have included the following actionscript:
on (release) {
stopAllSounds();
}
Can I add additional script to turn it back on again? Maybe an if statement? The sound is currently being loaded and I cannot really add additional frames to make this work. I have to be able to include the script in one step if possible. Unless a movie with several buttons is the only way to go.
In an IDE project what is the difference between choosing "library path" and "external library path" Is this how you would add greensock.swc to a project?
View 0 RepliesI can get my mc button to mute it once, but never turn on again.The audio is a voice over in streaming in the main timeline.

I have created a game where all the main actionscript takes place in one frame.For extra functionality I was going to add a button to toggle on/off sounds, after searching this forums and others Im left confused how to implement this.If i choose to use stopAllSounds() Im aware it only stops the current sounds and will not interfere with sounds about to occur.
Collision detection and random sounds occur within my game on an interval, is there a simple way to turn off all sounds permenantly? The only other id would be a button with a toggle and use multiple IF statements to check status of sound on/off.
The user should be able to toggle on or off the sounds button where clicking (on) will turn on the sounds while the button's label will be changed to 'off'Initially the sound is off.
View 4 RepliesI have a Template file I am editing that plays music in the background. I want to shut it off when a Video is loaded so I added a stopAllSounds to the button. Works fine; however, I cannot figure out how to turn it back on again, as the template designer placed the sound file into a button rather than creating a sound Object. Was hoping someone could help me figure out how to restore sounds (I have tried adding Frame Labels to his sound movie/button but it returns me to the opening on the animation.
I have posted the file here if anyone would like to help. If no time for that, is there a simple way to output what is happening when I hit the toggle button, so I can copy that and try it?
I have a movie clip on the main stage which loops an animation of a gramophone. On a separate mc in the layer above I have a working toggle button which plays and pauses a loaded mp3, but does not yet pause the MC animation beneath it. I need to find a way to target/pause/resume the gramophone MC insync with the sound button which is in another movieclip

[My fla has 2 layers, one for this AS, and one for the buttons... within the symbol section, I have two layers, one for the button common BG, and two frames in the button layer, one for play (triangle) and one for stop (square). They are saved as a movie clip.]

I've googled and googled but got no where or outdated tutorials. Anyone know how to make it so I can toggle audio with buttons using ActionScript 3 on Flash?
View 2 RepliesI have a video and background music in one flash file. I need the background music to fade out when the video is playing, and fade back in when the video is paused. Everything works fine until the Music On/Off button is inserted.If you try out the attached FLA, the background music is able to fade out when the video is played and fade in when the video is paused. But once you toggle the Music On/Off button, the background music fade in/fade out doesn't work anymore.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to play some sounds that I recorded of a person singing 7 notes. Each sound contains a single note. I then want to create buttons that will play the notes.
But the notes take forever to buffer when the buttons are clicked for the first time.
What are the best SoundBooth settings to make my notes load fast?
my preloader music now fades out as the progress bar completes (the preloader code is below with the new code in bold). However, the new code added to the preloader seems to be affecting the sound in the main swf (the bigger swf that the preloader loads - 'lesson.swf' - which is a series of exercises).
The exercises in the main swf have sound cues for right and wrong answers. The first time the main swf loads, there is no sound at all in the exercises. If I navigate to another page of the website and come back to the exercises, the sound is normal. But if I navigate to another page and come back a third time, the sound is audible, but reduced in volume. If I keep switching off the page and back to the page, the sound varies from no sound to full sound to about half the full volume.
Is it possible that the code on frame 2 of the preloader, the code that sets the volume for the preloader music, is also applying to the main swf, so that whatever point the preloader progress bar gets to before the main swf loads becomes the volume of the main swf? The first time the preloader runs, the progress bar goes all the way from left to right and the sound volume fades to zero. Then the volume in the main swf is zero. The next time the preloader runs, it only gets a little way across before the exercises come up, and the sound in the exercises is full volume. Is there a way to fix this? I should add that if I comment out the new code that fades out the preloader music, all the sound works normally.

How do I import a button I have from the library to create a new instance of it?
View 4 RepliesCode:
on (press) {
if(srchMC._visible)
[code]......
I want to put another MC in place of the srchMC, by toggling with this same button. Can I do that? Would I just change the else statement to say MC2._visible=true; Also, when test the file is there a way to have the MC's hidden when the file loads, until the button is pressed? Is that an OnLoad statement?
I�m trying to toggle the movie clips visibility by passing in a parameter. I have seen an example of this before, but can�t remember how it�s done. Here is the basic set up below. Basically, you can set one of the movie clip visible while the other movie clips are invisible by passing in a parameter.
function toggleVisible(){
one.visible==false;
two.visible=false;

I have stored some basic data in a custom class, imported it into a project, and compiled it into an swf. Now, I want to import that swf into the library of a new, entirely separate flash project, and access the data from the original custom class inside that imported swf.
Here's how I'm trying to go about it (unsuccessfully):
1. Create a custom class 'MyClass.as' with some basic data ("hello world") stored in a property:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class MyClass extends MovieClip{

I use the DistortImage class by Sandy to distort an image. This works. However it shows the picture twice unless I add _visible = false; to it on the mainstage. Now I don't want it to be on the mainstage in the first place so I place the picture on the stage from the library:
Code:
_root.attachMovie("photo2", "photo6", 1);
photo6._x = 100;
photo6._y = 100;
Now I want to distort it:
Code:
import sandy.util.DistortImage;
_root.attachMovie("photo2", "photo6", 1);
photo6._x = 100;
photo6._y = 100;
clip = createEmptyMovieClip("holder", 1);

But now the picture disappears?! Here's the .fla with the distort class for CS4: [URL]
I need to be able to add into the library an image via Actionscript 2 and 3 so when the AS is compiled into a SWF the image is in the library. Anyone know how to do this? I know I can drag and drop into the library manually, but i'm trying to do this dynamically and then compile it by way of the command line.
View 9 Replieshow to place movieclips onto the stage using actionscript 3.0 without having any material in my timeline. In other words just having my actions layer, and placing all my movieclips I created from my library to the stage using code.
how do I import a replay button onto the stage using actionscript. Right now I'm creating a web banner for school using as3, but I would like to learn if there is a code that would "replay" all actions I've written in my actions, or how to make my banner replay once is done animating.
I'm working on a simple play/pause control for a movie clip.
Is there some property on movieclips that I can query to find if the movieclip is currently playing or stopped?
Otherwise, I figure I could add one myself, and alter it every time I play or stop the movie clip, but I don't want to.
