im using actionscript 3 with a button to play a sound, the only thing is I dont want to play the sound from a URL i want to play it from a sound imported into the library, im sure its simple I just dont know how.
[Code]...
I have a film with 4 scenes in it: Here's a link to the film and as you can see the film does not play the music the second time because of the StopAllSounds function which is probably the wrong code to use. The first scene is just a button with 1 frame, a stop action and a music clip. The second scene is the film. The third scene is the credits fourth scene is a Play again button. I have a Stop all Sounds action on the fourth scene because if I do not use it and I press the Play Again button, the music from the first song keeps playing but also the music from the film starts up again so it starts to play twice. What I want to know is, how do I get the music to stop at the end of the film but start up again once I hit Play Again?
I am using Flash CS3 if that helps and using Actionscript2.
I have a Flash presentation that has some music and various sounds throughout the presentation.I want to have a btn stop all the sounds, but if clicked again it will enable all the sounds again.Is this possible? I can get the btn to stop the sounds, but cannot get the music to enable after.

View 1 RepliesHere is the action scrip that I created. Correct it if you can.
Process.visible = false;
Cycles.visible = false;
stop();

Im making a soundboard and I chose AS3 by accident.What I need the code to do is STOP the CURRENT sound from playing if another is pressed. the code that worked for AS1 and AS2 was onMouseDown [code] plays the sound once and messes the sound up after playing for only half a second or not at all.
View 5 RepliesI did a search here and I am not sure my question was answered exactly, and even if it was, I wouldn't know it. My problem is going above and beyond what the project calls for. So here we go:I have an external swf that I have loading in when you press a "play" button. Now I need to have a button that stops the sound ONLY on the externally loading swf. I assume from what I have Googled to death that this is called "stopping all sounds". I have also come upon a sound mixer dealy-o, but I'm not sure that is what I am trying to do?????I keep reading about SoundMixer.stopAll (); but this looks to mute the sound all together with no use of a button. So I am ASSUMING that there is more code to add to this when it comes to using a button.
So, I would like to know the EXACT code I need to use to get it working...if at all possible. I named my sound button "btn3_btn" and my mute button "btn4_btn" for now. I want a separate button to turn the sound back on once it has been muted.
Could someone direct me to a post (or explain) how I might be able to Toggle On/Off the muting of every sound playing in my .Swf?
I have several streaming sounds I don't want to (stop), just (mute).
When the movie loads, the music begins to play. I have a single Music On/Off button that can stop and restart the first track. However, whenever the user stops and then starts the music again, I'd like to alternate the track that plays.
As it stands now, only the the first track will play when the button is clicked (and when the movie loads, of course).
Code in action layer:
ActionScript Code:
var song = 1;
var my_sound:Sound = new Sound();

I'm fairly new at AC2 (Yes, I need to update), and I have Flash CS3.I need to find out if I can have a button that when you click it, plays a music file, and then when you click it again, the music that was playing for that button would stop.I have a text box on top of a rectangle and I selected them both and converted them to a button symbol, named it MusicFile, double clicked on the new button, inserted a new keyframe in the timeline on "down" (where it says Up, Over, Down, Hit), and then dragged the music file from the library onto the button. It works fine, until I click the button a second time, and it just keeps playing as if I pushed play twice and two copies of the sound started playing.Is it possible to make the button play the music when it's clicked the first time, then stop the music that it was just playing the second time it was clicked?
View 1 RepliesI currently have a 23-frame multilayered single-scene animation designed to loop continuously which I would like to add to my portfolio. As such, I am adding a Play button, which I would like to toggle to a Stop (or Pause) button. I currently have an instance of the Play button ("playButton") created.
(You can find this at pineboxmovingco.com/gear_redux.swf)
Besides imploring your assistance in providing the code, I must also ask if this requires (and best practice for) inserting an additional frame at the beginning for the ActionScript, as well as where/what layer to add an instance of the Stop button. I would like the movie to be stopped by default, presenting the Play button, toggling to the Stop button, and back to the Play button, each upon release.
Ok so I have this simple animation I created of a circle that moves from one side of the stage to the other. I have added a new layer and called it buttons. On this layer I have added 2 buttons. One for start and another one for stop. The purpose is to get my circle to move from one side of the stage to the other but be able to use my buttons so that I can start and stop the animations at random times during playback. I fixed all my compiler errors now the problem lies in that everytime I click the start or the stop button I get an output error. I have a 3rd layer in which is titled actions and this is where all my code is posted. I removed that layer and placed my code in the first frame of the buttons layer to see if this would change anything but I still get the same output errors. So I just added back my actions layer. What could I be doing wrong? I have made sure to name all my movie clips and buttons correctly and I even added an instance name to them.[code]Here is my code and the errors I am getting when I press the play and stop button on test.Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
View 10 RepliesI am trying to create a sound button to start a sound and then stop it when clicked again. I thought it would be easy because there is a code snippet for "click to play/stop sound"

I am a main timeline, with a movie clip that I want to loop infinitly, until a button is clicked, once the button is clicked I want it to stop the movie clip timeline, once the button is clicked again I want it to start the movie clip timeline again.
I am not the greatest actionscripter, I understand it I just have a bit of trouble writing the syntax myself.
i successfully got the random tuorial working. now i'm lokking for a function for a button to stop and start the random movement at will. i dont want to change frames, im just need a function to break the movement and make the mcs stay put...
View 2 RepliesI wrote the following code to have flash stop on frame 1 and wait for the click on the start button. I will use the animation in Connect Pro and without a Start button, the audio starts before the video. Here is the code and following is the error I get in the Compiler when I play the animation. The button does have the instance name play_btn :
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
} stop();
The error I get is:
Location: Scene=Scene1, layer=actions, frame=1, line 3
Description: The class or interface 'MouseEvent' could not be loaded.
Source: Function buttonClicked(event:MouseEvent);void
have been looking for the right solution to my little problem and not found anything that works with my project.I have a fully functional mp3 player built in flash cs5 with AS3 and I would love to make the stop button reset the song to the beginning instead of pausing it like it is doing at the moment.. My code for the whole app is as follows :

i'm trying to write the code for a flash animation which uses different movie clips and buttons.all the movie clips are in the same layer but i've written code to make all but one invisible when the animation loads.
dance._visible = false;
harmonica._visible = false;
violin._visible = false;
i've then got buttons which are supposed to make the movie clips visible, but then disapear again after the clip has played.i want to be able to press one button to have one clip start playing, but then i want to be able to press another button which stops that movie clip and starts a new one playing.this is what i came up with but it doesn't work
on (press) {
violin.stop();
harmonica.stop();[code]....
this script is from one of the buttons which is supposed to start the movieclip harmonica and stop violin playing.i've got the same code for violin but the other way round.when i press a button it works fine and plays the clip which then disapears (leaving a default clip which plays all the time visible) but pressing buttons to interrupt the clip and play another one don't work properly. the movie clips don't stop and reset when they are interupted. they kind of pause instead. when i go to play a clip that has previously been interrupted it starts from where it has been paused and not from the beginning
I followed the mp3player tutorial (part 3) from [URL] and got it working fine. Only problem is that the setVolume I'm trying to use with my music is affecting all my other sounds - button sounds and background sound. I'm aware of the createEmptyMovieClip/attachSound approach and got it working on my other sounds. But Lee's tutorial-mp3player is using a slight different technique, and so my normal approach doesn't quite work.

On a recent project I am working on, I created an event-based sound engine. Different components within Flex will be registered, and then the controller will listen to events and handle the information correctly. So, it just takes a custom SoundEvent or ChannelEvent to alter one of the channels, or play a sound.
I can not quite figure out what is wrong with my code, and I am finding myself snow-blind to the issue at hand. At first, I was going to rewrite it but I figured it would be better to learn from my mistake. Also, I realize that this is not correct for streaming sounds, but I am working off a local sound library until I get it up and running smoothly.
Here is the code for the SoundEvent:
package code.events
{
import flash.events.Event;
public class SoundEvent extends Event
[code]....
I tried either from code like this:
public function onRollOver()
{
_root.dbg.text += this.beepSound + "

I am creating a card game in flash and to do the turns i used the while loop, but that made my script infinity and it is causing trouble, how can i stop the script and start it again with a "end turn" button?
View 9 RepliesSo I made a few buttons with sounds within them and when I publish it they work just fine. But what I want them to do is;
Say I click a Button.The sound starts playing.Then I click it again, before the sounds done playing.I want it to stop the playing sound and start playing the button I just clicked on, whether it be the same button, or a different one.Right now it just ends up sounds like an echo because it'll play it as many times as you click it.
im using stopAllSounds();command to mute all sounds, and it works fine with sounds that are already loaded (background music), but if there is button which triggers some new sound (after activating mute button ) or any other function to import new sound object you still can hear it despite stopAllSounds();.which command to use to permanently block all sounds already loaded and those which can be triggered by future actions.Now i have stupid situation> background music is muted but you can still hear sounds when cliclking buttons (which is ok but NOT in muted stage).
View 5 Repliesi load external swf to the main movie. They all have sound. Have no problem to stop sound of the main movie (by the behaviors), but it doesnt stop the sound of the external one. What AC should be used to stop all sound, external and internal?
View 1 RepliesI posted a question earlier about stopping all sounds in a swf. Now, to do that I'm using the following code.
var transform1:SoundTransform=new SoundTransform();
transform1.volume=0;
flash.media.SoundMixer.soundTransform=transform1;
Which solves the problem (mutes all sounds) but now there is an issue, I want to stop all sounds but one.
How to stop this sound ? :MySound.play(0,100,null);
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";

I need to turn off/on all the sound for a flash animation. The flash control contains a layer named sounds that has 5 sounds associated with it in keyframes at different time. How can I simply turn on/off everything using a symbol button.
View 2 RepliesI have sound that loads with the web page. Because I want to give the user the ability to mute the sound, I have a flash button to do so which works nicely.
However, if the user moves to a different page in the website, they must again mute the sound.
Is there a way to set a global variable for muting the sound that will work across the entire website?
