Controlling Sound Objects Across Scenes
Nov 14, 2007
I'm doing a project that I have to use scenes in, I have a sound object that i want to be able to control in all scenes. I set up global variables for the sound object and a boolean to check if the sounds currently playing like this :
PHP Code:
_global.sound1= new Sound();
_global.sound1.attachSound("song");
_global.soundplaying = 0;
In each scene I have two buttons a stop and a play button, Heres my code for play:
PHP Code:
if(!_global.soundplaying){
_global.sound1.start();
_global.soundplaying = 1;
}
And stop:
PHP Code:
_global.stewielaugh.stop();
_global.soundplaying = 0;
Doesn't seem to work, if I press play in scene one and go to scene 2 and then return to scene one the sound can be played again on top of the already playing sound object.

I am having problems controlling my sound objects. When the user clicks on a mc on the stage a sound (voice over) starts to play. But if she decides to listen to another sound, she can click on another movie clip...Problem is that when the user clicks on the second movie clip the first sound is still playing while sound number two starts playing as well. I would like the second sound object to replace the first...shouldn't this be possible by using the mySound.stop(); before initiating the new sound object.
Here is part of my code:
Movie Clip one:
on (press) {
mySound=new Sound(this)
mySound.attachSound("voice_one")
mySound.start(0,1);
[code]....

whenever I set my sound to stream and continue to make a movie with multiple scenes. The audio and video get disgustingly out of sync sometimes even off by 30 seconds. I just started an animation its only 10 seconds long with two scenes and the AV is already off by about 5 seconds. Ive worked around this by avoiding scenes altogether but i really don't want to have another 5000 frame scene. I discovered this problem in Flash MX and Im quite annoyed that it still has't been fixed 3 years later!

Am using eksternal page as a Chapter, and A Chapter consist of many Pages (it using Scene)
For an example :

I have several buttons, that link to several scenes, containing swf files. Using the loadmovie command I can get these swf's playing on-screen. That's good.
-How can I control where they appear on my document (I'd guess these require some x or y values, but not sure how this is done) as they all appear in the top left-hand corner.
- When I mouse over another button (link to scene/swf) how can I remove the previous swf from the page, then load the new swf -as they all appear in the same spot/all over each other? Is this an unload movie command?
I was hoping to counter this problem by using different scenes (no luck there) and all I really need to do is remove the previously loaded swf, when the new one is loaded.

I have created a X-mas card for my company. When the card opens, the 3 circles are buttons to different scenes within Flash. The text in the bottom left is a button to the final scene.
The card can be viewed here: [URL]
1) When I click on the circle button that has the red garland and tree ornaments in it, if you listen close at the very beginning of the scene, a squeek sound plays. I use this squek sound in the hamster wheel movie symbol used in other scenes, but not in this scene. I don't even have the sound in this scene of the Flash project anywhere. I can not figure out where it is coming from.
2) Does anyone have some optimization tips? My project file is huge and a lot of the people we will be sending this out to probably don't have the most up-to-date processers. Should I split each scene into it's own Flash movie that is only loaded when the button for that scene is selected instead of the whole thing loading?
Here is a link to view the .FLA file: [URL]

I've set a music sound to play across three scenes in my movie. However, when the user clicks to enter the fourth scene, I'd like the music to stop. Simple enough.
Here's the problem...the fourth scene contains individual keyframes in the scene where I have separate voice overs for each frame. The user navs forward or backward among the scene's keyframes using arrow buttons for forward and backward. How can I have the voice over stop playing on frame 1 if the user clicks the arrow to go to frame 2 if the frame 1 sound isn't finished playing? Frame 1 plays out until finished, even if the user has clicked to go to frame 2.
Then, on return to the main scene where the general music file played, I'd like it to resume playing upon the user clicking 'return home.'
Incidentally, I set up my sound files to play on a soundtrack timeline.

How do you refer to specific named instances of objects (buttons, movie clips, text fields, etc.) in different scenes? I made two scenes with button1 on scene 1 and button2 on scene 2. My code is below. The button2.addEventListener line gives the error "cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." Removing that line removes the error and button1 switches scenes. What's the proper way of referring to button2?
package
{
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I have only two days to get this working and handed in. My class did not teach actionscript, the code for keeping sounds playing through multiple scenes was provided for us :
var mySound:Sound = new soundtrack();
mySound.play();
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work in actionscript 3..... and my entire movie is actionscript three. It won't let me save down or convert it or anything.... and I can't get my stuff into another file without screwing it all up.

I currently have a movie, about 12 scenes long. I have a sound control that loops the track I have the user select repeatedly. But because I wanted music to always play unless they manually turned down the volume in my controls I load the music each time the main scene is loaded... This ends all of the other sounds and just restarts the first track in my list.
Here's the code:
For the main frame, inside a movie clip placed on scene 1:
stop ();
stopAllSounds ();
setProperty ("playing1", _visible, "1");
setProperty ("playing2", _visible, "0");
[Code]....
All I want this to do is keep playing the track the user selected, and not have to reset everytime the main scene is loaded...

I simply don't understand why now at the end of my project, the last 5 frames are giving me such trouble. I have five scenes. The first scene plays fine. Second scene plays fine until just the end, then it grabs audio from the third, fourth and fifth scenes and starts playing them. Here is the site: [URL] (it is a site for children in Swedish) if you click the 3rd button to the right (3 Delan) you will notice that the sound starts truncating and then starts grabbing and placing into scenes before the next scene.

Situation: I have a project I'm working on where I have buttons which make click sounds on their own, and also take you to other scenes where a sound will immediately play. There are also three movieclips involved, total my base movieclip and two independent ones that load on top of that. Problem: I want to include a Mute button so that you can turn off all sounds, but can't figure out how to do that..As I understand it, stopAllSounds won't work for me, because as soon as someone hits another button, a new sound will play.

Most of my flash movies have been reasonable sizes, but the one I'm working on now is kind of a beast. It's up against the 16000 frame limit, so I'm looking into ways to chop it up. The problem is that I need a way to keep my background music playing across multiple scenes or movies. Is there a way to start a sound file in one movie, and have it continue when another scene is loaded or when a second movie file is loaded with ActionScript?

I am trying to build a very simple Flash app in CS4. All I want to do is have JPGs overlayed over a sound layer in a series of scenes. I want a basic intro scene that ends w/ a table of contents from where you can click to view any scene. At the end of each scene is a frame where the user can replay the current scene, return to the TOC frame in scene 1 or proced to the next scene. I am having two SERIOUS problems.
1. For some reason my movie is NOT stopping at the "stop ();" action at the end of scene one. the action is on its own keyframe in the timeline, but when I "test movie" it just plays right past that to scene 2.
2. I obviously need multiple buttons on a scene to do different things on click. Does it really have to be as complicated as it seems to have multiple buttons all do different things on click? I keep getting told I have duplicate actions when I have two buttons on a page that do different things on click. I have named each button instance a unique name and written the gotoandplay click event using those unique instance names.

Is there any AS3 library or code-snippet that can create altered versions of a Sound object on-the-fly (at runtime)? Either based on:
An existing Sound object; A ByteArray object;
For example, say you have a "dry" sound of a gun-shot. You could:

Is it possible to take two Sound objects and combine them into one Sound object so that one Sound plays, and then the second plays right after it? I can just play the first Sound and then the next right after it, but it would be much cleaner to combine them before playing the audio.

I used a template from a flash template website but I just realized that the background control was written to control all sounds, now all the video sound and seperate sounds objects stop when I click on this one button. This is the code below that I found on the button. There are others also.

I have a button on my main scene which creates the varaiable "soundoff", then if one of the placed swf's when loaded detect the variable it stops all sounds,
if(soundoff == true){
stopAllSounds();
This works fine but does not target sounds placed in movieclips in the loaded swf's timeline. I've tried targeting them with the _root. command and using linkage but I can only stop the sound in the main timeline level.

I have a loaded SWF file in _level1 that has audio in the timeline. I am trying to control the volume of this loaded SWF with a 'mute' button in the main SWF file. On the first frame I'm using the code:
my_sound = new Sound(_level1);
and then on the button script I have:
mute_btn.onPress = function(){
my_sound.setVolue(0);//mute volume
}
but it's not working. Is the new Sound(_level1) not valid?

I am having trouble controlling sound instance on the main timeline from with a movieclip.
On the main timeline contains the following code:
root.createEmptyMovieClip("beat_mc", 100);
beat = new Sound("beat_mc");
[Code]....
The main timeline will render the sound at the volume 10 value. However, I anticipated the volume to be set at a 100 from the Jukebox's controller.
It would seem logical that the jukebox code should respond to the instance "beat", but it doesn't.

I now changed my movie up to where a "empty movie clip" is created that plays songs on maintime of movie. However, I still want to have a tab where it says "sound controls" be automated so that when users roll over it, it slides in and shows controls for sounds instead of them always being present. This roll over effect is the simple AS:
Code:
soundtab.onRollOver = over;
soundtab.onRollOut = out;

I now have my sound clip working in a container swf (level0).. Can I control this sound clip from other levels that have been loaded into level 1 from the container swf?Would it be something like
PHP Code:
_level0.mysound.setVolume(30);
If so, where do I name the music 'mysound'? I have simply dragged the music into the main timeline. Would it be better if I loaded it externally?

I am trying to create a movie that has 3 different background sound loops for the user to choose from as well as an on/off button.I followed one of the Kirupa tutorials which enabled me to create 3 different buttons that linked to the 3 sound loops in my library. The problem is that I don't know the actionscript required to stop whatever clip is playing and play the newly selected background sound chosen by the user.Also I am trying to have one of the loops playing when the movie starts as a default, and also to have a mute button
