ActionScript 3.0 :: Play An MP3 At A Desired Time?
Jan 21, 2009
I'm having a problem with sounds in AS3. I'm using the following code.
ActionScript Code:
sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("mytrack.mp3"));
channel = sound.play();
If i want to skip to a certain location in the track, say 1/2 way through, i then use
ActionScript Code:
channel.stop(); //stops old sound from continuing
sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("mytrack.mp3"));
channel = sound.play(location); // location = time in ms to start from
I've noticed by using loading bars, that in most browsers, if the song has not fully downloaded, it restarts downloading from 0 and then when completely done, plays at the desired point. If the song HAS downloaded, it quickly loads (as if downloading from 0 to complete in about 1/2 second) and then plays from the desired point.
My question: Is there a better way to seek to a position in a song, that would stop this strange behavior?

Ive had a search through quite a few forums and message boards but havent quite been able to pin down what I need to do. I'm working in flash cs5 and using AS3
I have a button (bttn1) which when clicked plays a movieclip (bounce), but I would like it to play from frame 1 then stop on a desired frame(say frame 10), so when a second button is clicked (bttn2) it plays from frame 10. Hopefully i've explained it ok...

I'm testing Live streaming with FMSS. The stream is pushed to FMSS buy Adobe FMLE software. Streaming works fine until I reach 1300-1400 simultaneous connections.No matter what the encoding ratebit is (150kbps or 2000kbps) the stream is no longer play from time to time (5-8 seconds).
The CPU (2xIntel Quad) is loaded less than 20% and memory used is about 2 GB (there is plenty of memory installed 32G). The OS is RedHat 5.3 64bit platform. Network uplink maximum rate is 4Gbps.I disabled the Queue but the problem still persist.

The following code works fine but always this external .SWF file stays on Top ot other Layers. How can I bring it down to the desired level (Say, if I have 10 layers and I would like this external .SWF on 5th layer).
[code]var mySwf1:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader("AnalogClock.swf", {width:225, height:225, container:this, onComplete:completeHandler1});

I'm sure this has been addressed before, but I'm going a bit crazy here. I have a button that I want to go to a frame labeled "start" but in Internet Explorer it snaps back to the button's frame. I don't know what's going on. I've done this a hundred times before and it's worked. Is it because I'm in Flash CS4 saving as Flash CS3 - in Actionscript 2?

Ive got a few plroblems with this project at the moment. Ive got the function to colour tween the shapes through actionscript. As you look through it seems ok but im trying to get all 3 boxes to change colour. Unfortunatley i can only get one to change. When looking at the functions called by the buttons the second box seems to take priority over the first one. How can i get all three boxes to change to my desired colours?URL...

I have tried to figure out how to get an animation to pause at a desired frame after a click rather than just stopping it at that exact frame or putting a stop action at the desired frame. My goal is to have a movie sequence play continuesly and when a user so desires he/she can click and stop the movie, but rather than stop it while it is in transition at that exact frame, the movie should continue to a point where it is logical for the movie to stop.(example: the movie is at frame 2 when the user clicks, but instead of stopping at frame 2 it continues to frame 10, and then stops) Then on another click the movie will continue through it's sequence as it was before. I would like to use a MC, onClipEvent to handle the script in Flash MX.

I'm trying to make a player with EQ, get the data in the Sound object, but for some reason with the desired point to play it I can not play it right from the start of the track.
_out_snd.addEventListener(SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA, processSound);
_channel = _out_snd.play(pos);
function processSound(event:SampleDataEvent):void {
_samples = new ByteArray();
var len:Number = buf[trackDesc].sound.extract(_samples, BUFFER_SIZE);

I seem to recall something about pass-by-reference and the Greensock TweenLite class. It's the only thing I can think of that is causing this bit of code to be not working as I intend:
for (var i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
addItem();
}
public function addItem():MovieClip {
var item:MovieClip = getNewItem();
[Code]...
The trace is outputting the values I expect: an incremental sequence where each number is greater than the last (by the height of the item). However, what I see visually is that all the items end up at the same location (as if newPosY were the same for all instances of the tween.)
The only thing that comes to mind is that newPosY is being passed by reference, so each instance of the tween is actually referencing the very same value. Am I missing something? Or do I need some kind of closure to isolate the scope of my tween property's value?

I have to update a form that's currently using the Vars property of Input Text fields to post every variable (even the ones that we don't want) to a CGI script. But I'd like to move the code forward, and get rid of some of these deprecated features; so I'm looking for an elegant solution to posting the desired variables to a CGI script, rather than every single one.

i am creating a very simple particle system. My only issue is trying to create a blurry trail effect on the particles in motion. I started by creating a large bitmap container, and applying a colormatrix filter and a blur filter . It seems to do the trick , but the issue now, is i have to make this container cover the stage, which has a two unwanted a effects:
-it's slower
-it covers all the content beneath. Perhaps my approach to creating trails is wrong?
i can post the whole class, but before i litter this post with long lines of code, is there a way to place a bitmapdata drawing over content and still get the desired effect. NOTE, if make transparency false in the bmdata, i loose the effect

I would like to play two videos (progressive), on top of each other. Nothing serious. But the second video contains multiple counters that has to play synchrone (with other words:simultaneously) with the first video.The second video (which is much smaller than the first) will preload much quicker and thereby starts playing earlier than the other video. Is there a way to start the video's at the same time and play them in progressive mode? (embedding is not an option because of the large filesize)

This thread i speak of is about how to play certain .swf's or MC's during the morning/afternoon/night.
I know for a fact i've seen this thread here before, but i just can't find it. Or if anyone wants to let me know how to accomplish this without the previous thread, that would be great also.

I am trying to make a image slideshow for my companies new website. I used the Flash Image Viewer plugin from Dreamweaver, but it doesn't contain the transitional effect desired.
Every tutorial I find talks about advancing the images through an interactive control, I just want the images to change by themselves and do a fade transitional effect between images. Can anyone please point me to a tutorial that has this w/o the intractive buttons? I have been looking on the internet for hours and can only find tutorials / example w/ the intractve controls.

I was working with FMS 3.5 and using the function 'copyTo()' to copy a file to a desired location. Code: fileObject.copyTo("store/"+name+".flv") store is a virtual directory defined in Application.xml file in the server side and name is a variable that stores the fileName without extension This was working fine with FMS 3 and FMS 3.5. Now, I moved to FMS 4 and noticed that this copyTo() function is not working. In the FMS Admin Console, it throws an error:Error: File operation copyTo failed.

How do I make a command saying:
if sound is playing - dont play sound, else, play sound?
so that the sound effect only plays one at a time. So if holding down SPACEBAR for example, the sound will play and only after the sound finishes, can it loop if SPACEBAR is still pressed.

How can I stop one SWF file playing when playing another in a HTML page?
I currently have a carousel that displays multiple SWF files and I don't want any overlapping of video or audio. I've been looking into LocalConnection and JavaScript options but with no luck. My SWF files are currently ActionScript 3 and Flash Player 10. I have a large play button on them, with the ActionScript code:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
import fl.video.VideoState;
video.addEventListener(VideoEvent.STATE_CHANGE,showButton);
[Code]...
Is there a way to incoporate a "stop the other SWF files playing" in this somehow?

I know this seems weird but I want upon reaching a certain frame. I want something like this to happen.
[AS]_root.gotoAndPlay(2);[/AS]
that is fine but at the same time I want this to happen also
[AS]_root.hidden.movie.gotoAndPlay(2);[/AS]
So basically target 2 movies to play at the same time. But for some reason it is not working for me.
