I'm wondering if there's any way that i load an audio file and then create an equalizer like one that you can see in an usual application for edditing sounds. I found one method in Actionscript, [URL], but this only returns a value for the current moment of a sound, and i need, to create for the whole song.
View 5 Repliesi have an equalizer .when i press crt+enter the music equalizer and the song starts playing. I want the following :-
(i) when i click on the playing equalizer it stops
(ii) when i click on the stop equalizer it resumes playing.
Here is my as code
var _sound :Sound = null;
var _soundChannel :SoundChannel = null;[code]....
I am trying to create an audio that only uses the first entry in an xml file. I have most of the things working but I keep getting an error related to the audio file.
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "http://rivervalleychurch.net/sermonaudio/Podcast/06_Jesus_Save_Your_Church_First_Love.mp3" to flash.net.URLRequest.
at latestMessage_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
I inserted the url for the file into error message so you can see if there is s problem with that. I was initially trying to use a variable to hold the url for me, because this xml file gets updated every week and I only want to access the most recent entry.
This is my first attempt at making an audio player in flash, so I am sure I have made a simple mistake, but for the life of me I cannot figure out what it is.
Here is the code I have so far: (Please Try not to Laugh, at least not out loud)
//Load the podcast.xml File
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
[Code].....
One last question is in regards to using id3 tags versus xml tags to fill dynamic text fields in the player. Currently I am using the xml file to do this, are there any advantages one way or the other for this. The only reason I ask is that I am hoping to display an "album art" image from the id3 tag in the player. Would it be better to grab all of the information from the mp3 file?
My flash app needs to popup a browse file dialog box and select an audio file. After selection, it will then play the audio file inside flash.
View 1 RepliesI made a doc class and a sound class. the sound class purpose is that if ever add sound i can just recycle easily the code to use and via the doc class just load it intot he correct frame. Issue: I made the sound class and it loads correctly for the first frame... But i want to add ANOTHER audio file, how would i alter my code setup so i can load the new audio file but instead on frame 1 always... i want to be able to load the audio file in frame 3 or 5 or 25.... How do i do that with the code i have setup??

I have got three screenshots below of Flash-based audio players on various websites that draw a waveform of the clip it is going to play and moves along while it is playing and also allowing the user to click on a point on the audio file and it jumps to that point.I have very little Flash knowledge but is this easy to achieve? I would like to just show the Flash file an mp3 and it draws the waveform. I understand this could be quite intensive on CPU so would there be a way of caching the waveform data so it doesn't redraw each time the file is loaded?
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to create a parametric equalizer in Flash. I've been looking for a way to read audio data and mess around with the samples before Flash plays them on the fly. Loading a sound in one Sound object and using Sound.extract() to read the data, processing it, then play a second second empty Sound object and writing the data to its sampleData event seems to be the way to do it (please correct me if I am wrong or there is a better way).
Is there a way to use Sound.extract() while the Sound object is still loading a sound file? I don't want to have to wait for the entire sound file to load before it plays. Unfortunately, whenever I use Sound.extract() while the Sound object is still loading, it returns a zero-length byte array.
Is there a way to wait for enough samples to load first before playing? I imagine I'd have the same problem again when the Flash movie eats through all the loaded samples while the sound file is still loading.
Here's a simplified version of my code. It's working so far, but only when I wait for the Sound object to fire an Event.COMPLETE event.
var inputSound:Sound = new Sound();
inputSound.load("somefile.mp3");
inputSound.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
[Code].....
EDIT: If I try using the PROGRESS event, I'm going to need to do a lot more low level stuff to implement buffering and whatnot (anything else I need to account for?). Could someone help me out with that? Also, is there a way to tell the position of a sample in milliseconds? Do I have to assume that all sound files are 44.1 kHz stereo (they may not be), or is there a better way?
Having got into flash about a year ago, I have a fairly good understanding of as3, but I have never had any reason to learn as2. For an upcoming project, we were looking to use Scaleform GFx, with the UDK. (Unreal Development Kit) Trouble is, Scaleform only supports as2. From what I've been told, as3 is supposed to be better in just about every way, so I really don't want to learn a language that?s most likely on the way out, if I have any other options.
Is there any converters out there, that can convert script from as3 to as2? Or another workaround possibility, since flash communicates with the UDK by means of just calling a function, could I create an as2 file that could dynamically load an as3 file?
I'm looking for a (free) flash player that I can embed in my site and use to play a .m4a (.mp4 with AAC audio) file that will be obtained using a URL (i.e. it's not local to the server hosting the web page).I've tried searching on google for one, but either I'm searching wrong or no one has made such a thing. Ideally this would be very simple (small user interface with play button and maybe a progress bar) and it would be easy to have multiple instances of on an html page (can create the player with an <object> tag).

I am trying to create a basic flash script to load an external swf file using MovieClipLoader class. Here's my code:
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
myMCL.loadClip("splash.swf",5);
I simply copied it from a tutorial. Unfortunately it throws an error message as follows:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MovieClipLoader

Ya know, with those bars and peaks that scale according to bitrates and stuff?URL...I heard that you need to turn an mp3 file into swf and add some variables (heard about a program that does it automatically) and then "loadMovie" from another swf that "reads" the variables in the first swf... I don't know... Something to do with streaming and timelines..
