I wanted to have a sound playing (loaded external mp3) and then have various buttons on the screen that load an alternate song in its place.
This is what I'm trying to do:
var myMusic:Sound = new Sound();var reqMyMusic:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mySong.mp3");myMusic.load(reqMyMusic);myMusic.play();
music1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, music1);

I am trying to control movie clip to anther swf file but its not working how to do .
View 1 RepliesI have a file to which I do not have the source - a flash header with an obnoxious sound intro and I need to mute all sounds. Without the source I am limited as to what I can do. I have some as3 code that I am using to try and load the swf into and mute(building in FlashDevelop). Here is the code in question:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.media.SoundTransform;
[Code] .....
This code above still plays the audio and the original swf is not being displayed. So, my questions are:
How would I mute the external audio?
How would I display the external swf just as it does when viewing it directly?

I am totally new to actionscript.I found a slideshow which uses an xml file to load jpgs. (albumV2.swf)The xml contains jpgs, and captions.When I publish it on its own...works fine.Now I'm trying to place albumV2.swf inside a deeply nested mc.I'm using a button to navigate to the target movieclip (holder_mc) which I want to contain the external swf.[code]when I test The albumV2.swf loads, I can see the background for the photos. But it won't play.There are thumbnails in the swf that don't show, but there's also a timer and counter in the swf that do show.All the photos are called from the xml doc, but I can't see them. However, I CAN see the first caption that's in the xml.doc. and only the first caption.I wondered if the code in the original slideshowFLA uses some hierarchy that I'm screwing up, but shouldn't the xml be fine once it's found?
View 1 RepliesIt's all about loading and unloading external swf's.My code is working perfectly though I just have some questions about load and unload issues.
------------------------------------------------------------
I have three buttons on the stage and it should load its external SWF
homeButton_btn - home.swf
page1Button_btn - page1.swf
page2Button_btn - page2.swf
Each of the button should load it's external SWF's intro when click.My problem is that I don't know how to command the button to play the swf's outro and then load the next swf everytime I click a button. Example: When I click homeButton_btn, the external swf should load "home.swf" and then if I am going to click page1Button_btn, the outro of "home.swf' should play and then once it reaches the end of it's timeline, it should load "page1.swf". Same goes with page2Button_btn, whatever swf that is on the stage should play it's outro first and then load "page2.swf"
My questions are: 1. How can I control the external SWF to play it's outro and then load the next SWF.
2. What code should I put at the end of the external SWF's timeline.
3. Where do you think I should put the preloader? Is it better to put it at the external swf timeline? or on my main swf timeline?
4. Does load and unload of external swf also work with movieclips? Like for example I will not use a external swfs, instead I will use movieclips to load and unload its content.My Actionscript 3.0 code
var pageContainer:Loader;
pageContainer = new Loader();
var nextMov:String;[code].........

code that will load and play a folder of flv's continuously?I have a folder of short clips i converted to flv. When one clip finishes, i want the next clip to play and to endlessly loop through the flvs, never stopping. If there's a way to include a transition, that'd be cool too, but not important. I've got the first clip loading, but can't get the next to play.

Structure: There is 1 main file that loads external SWF files depending on what is clicked on.One of the external SWF files loads its text from external text files. This works fine when viewing the SWF applet on its own. But when viewing as a whole site, the text doesnt appear. Very annoying.I made that particular SWF on my mums computer running Flash MX 2004The flash file itself uses the Scrollbar component from MX.Could someone tell me why the text doesnt load in this scenario? It runs fine on its own, just not as an external SWF.

How do you load external library objects from an external swf? I want to have an external swf that only contains library objects that are exported for Actionscript, and load these from the master .swf file dynamically during the master swf execution. (I may have multiple external swf resource files)I want to be able to load the external swf, and then access it's library objects via actionscript in my main swf file.

View 1 RepliesI'm loading (and unloading) external swfs into a holder in my main document. However, they seem to load perfectly the first time, but after that, they load at a different x and y. I've seen this happen before in someone else's file, but I'm not sure what the solution is.
This is the bare bones of it:
Code:
sceneHolder.x=0;
sceneHolder.y=0;
addChild(sceneHolder);

Okay so I am trying to load external swfs which load videos dynamically.
I can load the swfs into the parent fla fine (if I remove all the code and just place a circle or something on the stage of the swf), and the swfs are also loading their respective videos correctly. But when I try to load the external swfs, if they contain any casting related code in them, I'm getting an error
[AS]TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at swf1_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()[/AS]
Is there some specific method to casting within external swfs?
My code for loading the videos is this:
[AS]var vc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
vc.connect(null);
var vs:NetStream = new NetStream(vc);

I'm trying to get an external swf to load when the flv content of another external swf finishes playing.
I've only been using actiosncript 3 for about a week and I've got to this point from tutorials, so my knowledge is limited.

motionClip.playPauseButton = player;

I have a "about.swf" file that loads a CSS file and formats some dynamic HTML text. On its own, it works fine...but when it gets loaded into my "Main.swf", it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

View 9 RepliesI'm sure this question has been answered but I have been looking everywhere and all I can find is how to load an external SWF but not how to unload it.
