ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Sound Of Externally Loaded Swf?
Feb 5, 2011
how to assign a volume control component available in the video components library to an externally loaded swf once it's loaded into my main flash movie? I want to feature the volume control at the bottom of my main flash so that when you click a button to load the swf that volume control will be able to start controlling it's volume. Also, I want to be able to load several swfs and once each one is loaded--only one playing at any given time--into the main flash that same volume control can control them. Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it?I'm using CS5.

the .FLA files are attached at the bottom. intro.swf is the actual movie and introLoader.swf is the preloader and it loads intro.swf into it.the problem with the actionscript previously was that itd start playing the external movie halfway through the preloader bar as if it was streaming..however i found a workaround that doesnt really work.. i used xyz.stop(); and xyz.play(); functions to control when the external movie plays.The problem with those functions is that i need a check for them i.e if(percentage <100) etc. which causes problems like if the flash movie is already watched once and cached and you reload the page it wont play.

I am loading a .swf that a previous developer made (don't have the .fla) but the actionscript at the end of the movie is resolving to home.html. Instead of it resolving to home.html I would like for it to instead have gotoandPlay.

i had made a image gallery using xml in flash MX 2004. some of the images are jpgs and some are swfs. i'm trying to get it so that once the external file, be it jpg or swf, is loaded, it would recenter itself in the middle of the page.so i attached the following code to the container clip that the files were loaded into:
onClipEvent(load){
this._x = ((304 - this._width)/2);
this._y = ((304 - this._height)/2);

Another question regarding externally loaded .swf's!
In my externally loaded swf.s are a pause and play button which work perfectly using only:
on(release){yanm.play();}
(yanm being the name of my movie file containing my movie!!) and obviosuly the stop is with a stop!
Now I want to add a 'Mute' button so that the user can turn off the audio. What script would I use for this?
I also want to use a 'Rewind' or 'Restart' button to return to the beginning of my movie and begin playback again. What script would be used instead of .play?

I�m creating a .swf that loads another .swf using a Loader and a URLRequest in AS3. The problem is that the external .swf has music in it and I can�t figure out how to disable it. I don�t mind just disabling all sounds, but I haven�t been able to get this to work either.

I have a button on my main scene which creates the varaiable "soundoff", then if one of the placed swf's when loaded detect the variable it stops all sounds,
if(soundoff == true){
stopAllSounds();
This works fine but does not target sounds placed in movieclips in the loaded swf's timeline. I've tried targeting them with the _root. command and using linkage but I can only stop the sound in the main timeline level.

I'm using loadSound to load in external MP3 files and they load and sound great on the local machine but don't work when I upload the files to the web. I'm pretty stumped. The MP3 files are only like 10k and 60k so it can't be a size issue (I'm on a T1 line here at work too). Here is the site: [URL] Basically when you walk close to the fire you should hear the fire crackling and it will get louder as you get even closer. Everything works on my PC, just not online. Here's the AS code for the fire:

I just heard something about "Flash Methods". Using Javascript to control the SWF from outside of it. Ever hear of it? What I am trying to do is have the center content of my HTML page reload different textual content when you click on a button in the Nav, but not reload the whole page. The Nav is separate from the SWF content in the center of the page. Is there a way to have it so that when you click on one of the buttons in the Nav that it can tell the swf what fram to go to?

ActionScript Code:
myTextField_txt.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat("monotype", 16, 0x0CFF00, true);
This controls the output to the stage of my fetched text. It works great, but I would VERY much like to control this externally as well. The color for example. How would I call this in a flash variable to change the color externally? Is it possible with this code?

I am in the process of building a site for an Architect... Jamie Fobert Architects (projects) I am useing transitions between the projects and am loading details/text and images externally through flashvars, php and a mySQL database. Within my transitions I have a a preloader on the forst 2 frames the code is as follows (taken from a Voetsjoeba tutorial):
[Code]....
This works pretty well if the content is within the .swf, but when it is loaded externally it doesnt preload it at all. Does anyone know how I can adapt/improve this preloader? or somehow ensure that all the content being loaded externally is loaded before the transition plays?

I am loading an externally loaded swf that uses a mask to transition in. When the user clicks a different button I am doing a gotoAndPlay that goes to a mask that "unloads" the content (it doesnt actually unload the info is just outside of the mask area. As soon As I jump to that section the movie is no longer loaded and just shows the container clip that I had created for it. The Container Clip is never changed and is the same throughout the whole process. The only thing that changes is the mask animation.I have tried both loadClip and loadMovie but no luck on keeping the clip loaded.
EDIT - I have narrowed it down. When I change the mask movieclip the movie unloads for some reason. Is there a way I can keep it loaded?

I have a homepage with five "links" to each swf. Now the first swf I have a custom cursor that hides the mouse. When I click on that link it plays and when I quickly go to the homepage again it hides the mouse there when it's not supposed to do it.
Same with every other link. When I was busy with the first swf and want to go to the last swf of the five, my mouse just disappears! It is almost as if it keeps on "playing" without seeing the swf...
Here is the code that I have so far!
var currentpage:uint = 0;
//one loader object per project:
var loadingobject1:Loader = new Loader();
loadingobject1.x = 445;

i'm having some "big" issues with what seems like a pretty easy flash concept. But, im pretty green when it comes to coding in flash.
I have a SWF thats being externally loaded into another SWF file (see code below):
on(release) {
loadMovie("test1.swf",_root.dropZone);
}
(If i'm understanding the above code correctly...its loading the SWF into a blank MC i created called dropZone) This part seems to work correctly when tested.
I've got 4 different SWF's that need to be loaded seperatley when its coresponding button is clicked. The issue arises when I import the external SWF file...it resizes itself to the size of the flash stage. I need all the SWFs to be loaded and remain there original size (1257x847) or be scaled to the correct size. Then if I click another button it should load the new SWF and "unload" the old SWF.

I'm loading swf's via an XML file. I'm wanting them to be added onto the stage in the same order that they appear in the XML. The problem that I'm having is that they are added to the stage only when they are fully loaded.
This is my xml (_config.xml)
<campaign>
<component SWFsource="logo.swf"/>
<component SWFsource="gallery.swf"/>

I used a template from a flash template website but I just realized that the background control was written to control all sounds, now all the video sound and seperate sounds objects stop when I click on this one button. This is the code below that I found on the button. There are others also.

I'm doing a project that I have to use scenes in, I have a sound object that i want to be able to control in all scenes. I set up global variables for the sound object and a boolean to check if the sounds currently playing like this :
PHP Code:
_global.sound1= new Sound();
_global.sound1.attachSound("song");
_global.soundplaying = 0;
In each scene I have two buttons a stop and a play button, Heres my code for play:
PHP Code:
if(!_global.soundplaying){
_global.sound1.start();
_global.soundplaying = 1;
}
And stop:
PHP Code:
_global.stewielaugh.stop();
_global.soundplaying = 0;
Doesn't seem to work, if I press play in scene one and go to scene 2 and then return to scene one the sound can be played again on top of the already playing sound object.

I have a loaded SWF file in _level1 that has audio in the timeline. I am trying to control the volume of this loaded SWF with a 'mute' button in the main SWF file. On the first frame I'm using the code:
my_sound = new Sound(_level1);
and then on the button script I have:
mute_btn.onPress = function(){
my_sound.setVolue(0);//mute volume
}
but it's not working. Is the new Sound(_level1) not valid?

I am having trouble controlling sound instance on the main timeline from with a movieclip.
On the main timeline contains the following code:
root.createEmptyMovieClip("beat_mc", 100);
beat = new Sound("beat_mc");
[Code]....
The main timeline will render the sound at the volume 10 value. However, I anticipated the volume to be set at a 100 from the Jukebox's controller.
It would seem logical that the jukebox code should respond to the instance "beat", but it doesn't.

I now changed my movie up to where a "empty movie clip" is created that plays songs on maintime of movie. However, I still want to have a tab where it says "sound controls" be automated so that when users roll over it, it slides in and shows controls for sounds instead of them always being present. This roll over effect is the simple AS:
Code:
soundtab.onRollOver = over;
soundtab.onRollOut = out;

I now have my sound clip working in a container swf (level0).. Can I control this sound clip from other levels that have been loaded into level 1 from the container swf?Would it be something like
PHP Code:
_level0.mysound.setVolume(30);
If so, where do I name the music 'mysound'? I have simply dragged the music into the main timeline. Would it be better if I loaded it externally?

I am trying to create a movie that has 3 different background sound loops for the user to choose from as well as an on/off button.I followed one of the Kirupa tutorials which enabled me to create 3 different buttons that linked to the 3 sound loops in my library. The problem is that I don't know the actionscript required to stop whatever clip is playing and play the newly selected background sound chosen by the user.Also I am trying to have one of the loops playing when the movie starts as a default, and also to have a mute button
