upon loading of my SWF main page, I am automatically loading 5 external audio files,so they will be ready in advance when the user requires them.However, if the user immediately wants to manually select one of those 5 audio files, how do I cancel the 'sound.load' functions of the others (in order to give my user maximum possible download speed for the audio file he wants first) ?

I have an SWF that's 30MB. Sound files (music) make up 25MB, art and other things make up the remaining 5MB.
Would it be possible for me to load the 5MB of necessary art and other things first to allow the user to operate the app, then after that's all loaded and they are operating the app, load the remaining 25MB of sound files in the background?
UPDATE: Loading SWF (or other entities) externally is not an option.
I am having difficulty with the following functions. What I want to do is just have one movie clip (we will call it plane_mc) go up at an angle, and have another movie clip (oh, lets just call it fallingCan_mc for kicks) that will go down at a particular angle. I got the plane to work fine with the following AS:
Code:
/* Plane motion script */
this.onEnterFrame = function () {

I have a textArea and would like to prevent the default behavior for certain keys such as the enter key from being run upon user input. However, KeyboardEvent is not cancelleable so preventDefault does not work.

What seems to happen is as soon as the cursor goes over any of the MovieClips that are inside of the expandable button the MouseOver event is getting cancelled. and the MouseOut event gets Called (I presume that it no longer thinks it is over the clip due to the call getting blocked by the content clips). This can be seen when the mouse goes over the text (which is a MovieClip inside the expanding button). I'm pretty sure this is to do with event propagation, and is probably quite straight forward to sort, but I'm just not sure where? here's my code...

I'm trying to load sound dynamically into a clip and then play it randomly. The AS I came up with works great if the sound is embedded and I use the .attachSound() method instead of loadSound(). Now, when I load it dynamically and use the code below, the sound plays very fast and at a higher pitch.
Code:
var crows = new Sound(this);
crows.loadSound("Raven.mp3", false);
crows.setVolume(100);

I am loading small sounds dynamically with the loadSound command. These small sounds are activated with a rollover. see script below. This works ok. however. i want the first sound to keep playing while the rollovers load sound. a bit like playing the piano. This works ok when i import all the sounds into the library and place them on their very own button. however the size of the flash movie increases to 140k. whereas when i load them dynamically the size of the movie is 20k. obviously i want to load dynamically.
But with dynamic loading each sound stops when another sound is rolled over, so that there is only ever one sound playing at once. I need to load the sound into a different level or something, so that the first sound can keep going while the smaller, shorter sounds play over the top. this is my script below. The first sound loads when the movie starts. This is the one i want to keep playing. Then there are the smaller ones with rollovers. does this make any sense? there's actually 13 little sounds.

I'm working on a video player with full screen capabilities. I have the control bar set to tween in and out of the video screen with a mouse event. I'm also trying to position the control bar at the bottom of the screen when it's in full screen mode. My problem is that the control bar doesn't reposition when in full screen because of the tween functions. I'm thinking that whatever solution comes up that I might go in the if statement of the full screen code.

I have a MOUSE_DOWN handler that creates a CLICK event listener on a child object. Naturally, as soon as you release the mouse button, if you happen to be over the child object, the CLICK event fires.I was disappointed to discover that event.stopImmediatePropagation doesn't interrupt the CLICK event from registering the MOUSE_DOWN as part of its detection cycle. It makes sense that it doesn't but still... disappointing.A MouseEvent.CLICK consists of detecting a MOUSE_DOWN on the object and then if it's followed by a MOUSE_UP without leaving the object, he event fires. I had hoped that by cancelling the MOUSE_DOWN event, it would clear that out of the CLICK buffer, but no such potatoes, alas.This could all be handled with a flag and a couple more MOUSE_UP and MOUSE_DOWN handlers, but dang, smacks of effort
View 2 RepliesI've got a flash movie containing 6 individual SWF's. These contain a short clip, with some sound effects. Also, I got 1 additional SWF that calls for each SWF in numeric order.
Now, I'd like to have a theme song going on in all of these 6 SWF's, and it needs to be seperatly, so that the sound does not stop until my movie is done.
Actionscript for my movie is;
ActionScript Code:
//
var movie1:URLRequest=new URLRequest("1Intro.swf");
var movie2:URLRequest=new URLRequest("2Troldmand.swf");
var movie3:URLRequest=new URLRequest("3Superman.swf");

I have an external sound controller that plays 10 tracks. The current way I load the sound controller is with LoadMovie and I do it on the last frame of the movie that is my actual website. However, this slows my whole site down significantly, because when I press stop on the sound controller...everything is at the speed I want it to go. What is the best way to go about preventing this slow down?
View 2 RepliesI want to load a sound to one of my buttons. I think I've got the scripting, but how do you put them "together" snav2.start("snav2"); - (I think)...is my scripting for my sound (where snav2 is my symbol linkage propery name)
and then
on (release) {
getURL("about_us_1.htm", _self);
}
So, where do you put the sound scripting in?
