ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Accessing Sound Information On Timeline
Jan 13, 2011
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 a very simple fla consisting of a picture and a sound on separate timelines. In AS3, I want to determine the sound is complete and go to another URL. I have the code for changing URLs working in a separate function. What I can't figure out is how to get the soundComplete to work when I'm not playing the sound with ActionScript

I wanted to make a visulisation based on sound, like a winamp plug in.The only thing that even remotely looks like it uses sound information is the sound players on FlashKit. (although they might be faking it)url...Is there any information that can be pulled from a currently playing sound in Flash to base a animation off ?

Okay so there are four variables on my timeline, two of which are arrays:
var greenSpriteArray:Array = new Array();
var pinkSpriteArray:Array = new Array();
var greenNum:int = 1;
var pinkNum:int = 1;
whenever I refer to them from a class file by just the variable names I get a 1120 undefined variable error. But if I call for example stage.pinkNum I get "1119: Access of possibly undefined property stage.pinkNum through a reference with static type flash.display:Stage."

I'm kinda noobish when it comes to getting information from XML information sent to my flash file from the socket server. OK so for example the server sends me this:

I want to get the name of the user and the X and Y position! Is there a way I can get this information without a load of fuss from functions and other junk remember im kinda noobish.

the website that im working on has 5 main buttons which then navigate you to a certain frame on the timeline which will display its respective information. but within one of those pages/frames i have 3 more buttons that i want to be active and take you to another frame on the timeline.
but when i try activating them with the same as3 code that i used on the other 5 main buttons, they do not work.

Im trying to create a gallery application in flash. I created a movie clip and inside of it I create a loader variable. After loading it i want to put it on the stage but not using the same loader. What I am trying todo is to load the information, and the copy the loaded information to a different loader that lives on the main timeline (root) and then use the addChild to put it on stage but its got to be on the main timeline or a different movieclip, not the same movieclip that loaded the object.

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 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 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.

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'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;

I'm trying to write a class that somehow emulates the old AS2 gotoAndPlay(); function, but i'm failing to find a way to reference the timeline that is calling the Class Constructor.
this is what i am using to call the class, i'm placing this code in the frame of the timeline i want to control. but it always gives me a null error.
I Know senocular adressed the timeline issues in one of this forum's post, but i can't figure out what to do in order to register this class in the specific timeline in order to control it.
the frame goes like this:

I have multiple instances of a movieclip (a1) within the main timeline. These instances move around via tweening within the main timeline. The instances also appear (are added) and disappear (are removed) while the main timeline is playing.
Within the movieclip is this actionscript:

How can I access the main timeline from each instance (even when it is not currently on stage)? how I can keep all of my code within the movieclip?

Now I've had no issue passing the variable and I can even display it in a dynamic text field but no matter what I try I cannot get the "number" varibable to use my PHP variable The dynamic text field shows the correct value clear as day but the counter just shows "undefined".

I'm definitely more designer than flash developer (as most of you might know. At least those that hang in the lounge or Arena). I need to know how to allow a loaded .swf file to control the main timeline in AS3.
I have a container .swf that includes global controls (jump menu/volume control) and branding. Loading a swf for the dialogue boxes (timeline animated ... although I realize there may be better ways to handle it). Another swf for a simcity-ish illustration that has animated elements with various states. I need all to be able to communicate with each other. I was able to load the movies no problem. Even communicate with the loaded ones from the main timeline. Just need to be able to go the other way.
