Is there a way in AS3 to determine if a loaded sound file is still playing or not? I need to start an animation when a sound starts and stop the animation when the sound is done playing.
View 3 RepliesI have a problem with sounds in this movie. I have a sounds file that I would like to play as soon as the movie is loaded, but I dont want it to stream because I want to loop it and I want it to be done with AS. I saw a Tutorial where the sound would load as soon as the movie started but it wouldn't play until the play button was pressed. I want the song to play as soon as the sound is loaded. The Tutorial is Creating a Volume Control Silder. [URL]
View 5 RepliesI would like to know if you can give me a direction how can I check if a movie clip is already instantiated, if it is, don't duplicated it, if it's not, create the object.I have an idea that it should be with an if statement I guess but I am not sure of the rest

View 1 RepliesI have an application, that has a movieclip in it. I'm creating a loader, loading another SWF and appending it to that movieclip. This is working perfectly fine. However, in the child SWF, there are a couple sound clips in the library that fire at certain times. If you play the child SWF by itself, the sound clips fire just fine. When loaded into the movieclip, nothing is playing.
View 4 RepliesI have buttons with sound attached in over state and that works just fine, but this means that you are going to hear sounds only when you move cursor over button, how can i make some background sound to play from the moment flash is loaded, even when buttons are inactive, my background image looks like some electrical equipment and and i want to make it sound realistic (sound clip must to be set to loop) and must to start at the moment flash is loaded?
View 1 RepliesI have recently updated to Flash CS4 and AS3 from Flash 8 - apart from one issue I have with the Sound Object. There seems to be a delay in the loaded MP3 playing when told to. This means that I am unable to add SFX to the game I am developing for a client, because the sound plays about 1-2 seconds after it is told to play. How to tee the Sound up, so that it plays immediately?
The process I am using is this:
Class defined to load all game assets defined in XML
All Sounds are loaded into their own Sound Object and a reference to each is held in an array and passed to the relevant Class (i.e. Player). The relevant Class tells the reference to the Sound to play - it plays, but 2 seconds after the collision detection Event has told the sound to play.
I'm working in ActionScript 2. I have a series of swfs with Sound objects. Works just fine when I play the swf. However, when I load them into a loader, no sound.

View 3 RepliesHi all,
I am loading an external .mp3 file into my movie using a dynamically created sound object:
var theMusic_sound:Sound = new Sound();
theMusic_sound.loadSound("sound/mylo.mp3", false);
theMusic_sound.onLoad = function(true) {
theMusic_sound.start(0, 5);
theMusic_sound.setVolume(25);
};
However I find that when I run the movie, the sound plays at a higher speed (chipmunk music!). The clip was one that I created myself, its a 48kbs mono .mp3 file
Also, I am having trouble making an MP3 that loops perfectly. I have trimmed the sound perfectly in Nero wave editor, but the encoding process appears to add a short pause at the start and end of the file, which produces an annoying gap in my loop.
I'm using the FLVPlayback class to play my FLV files.
If I'm trying to play a FLV file which is not existed yet then I am getting a "VideoError: 1000" with message of Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server.
I want to check for the FLV file existence using the file URL or path, before playing that FLV by FLVPlayback.
I have a problem that I have not found a syntax error or logic error to explain. It appears to be an obscure problem related to playing a sound file and graphic positioning in the same file. My next step is to look for any known bugs. I have posted the file at. URL] When the page loads you will see a list of selections. Do not click any of the html Play buttons In the graphic arrow pointing to the right is the play button click it and a default file will start. Click the pause button (which will be green while the selection plays) Then click the play button again. The knob that moves while the song plays, will begin moving from the position it was at the time pause was clicked.
Click the stop button (arrow facing left with vertical line at tip) Choose a selection from the html list by clicking the Play button next to it. Then click the play button in the player display. The title of selection will appear in the title area. repeat the original steps (play, pause, play) This time the knob that moves while song plays, snaps back to the start and moves from start, rather than from the pausedposition.

View 1 Repliesis there a way to capture the Error loading message as a boolean when loading an external file (AS2)? I wanted to make a decision based on the success for loadMovieNum.
The scenario is that I have a file that I am loading with loadMovieNum and all is working successfully.
The circumstance I wish to cover is if the file is missing for any reason, I want to load a placeholder movie.
I have looked at onLoad and onClipEvent(load) but these appear to only be for movieclips and not external files.
I've got a game I made just to play with AS3. But I'm having an issue with the sound. Playing the swf file will play the sound, but when embedded I hear nothing. The code for calling the sound:

SoundMixer.stopAll();
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundLoaderContext;

I have built an Mp3 player for my site and users are allowed to put their own music into the playlist. The only problem I have run into now is that if the URL becomes invalid later, the player will stop at that song and the user would have to press next to skip to the next song. Is there any way to get the player to do this on it's own?
Code:
AudioPath = aPath[current_song-1];
song_text.text = songTitle[current_song-1]+" / "+bandTitle[current_song-1];
MySound = new Sound();

View 2 RepliesI am using the latest flash player and have a swf file served locally from my dev machine.In one container test app I am able to play the swf and make calls to it, but in my "Real" application the same code path results in com errors (basically it looks like the swf isn;' loading properly)Additionally this is made more challenging because no matter what nonsense I put in the call to put_Movie() the return is ALWAYS S_OK. This is confusing.How am I supposed to determine if the swf file loaded and is working?As a follow-on, what would cause a swf file (the same one) not to load in a different app? The code paths are the same (from what I can tell).Obviousl something is going on, but I am not sure what.How to know when swf file doesn't load rightWhy might it fail in a different container application?

In my project I have five video files that I need to all play simultaneously. I'd like the user to be unable to play them until they are fully loaded, because of course streaming would mean they wouldn't necessarily be playing at synchronized times any more.
So I need to load them all entirely, and have a single button that the user clicks to get them all to play simultaneously.

//load sound

Problem is, soundFactory.length will return 0 ! That's because .length needs the entire file to be loaded in order to return the proper value, right ? If i trace it in "completeHandler" function, the right value is being shown but i cannot return the value to use it as a parameter in the "asteapta" function, at least i have no idea how. I guess i need to know the sound length before the file is being loaded.
I have a sound clip that I'm loading externally into my flash file. The code I'm using looks like this and is placed in the as layer on the first frame,

var lastPosition:Number = 0;
mySound.load(new URLRequest("introaudio.mp3"));
myChannel = mySound.play();
