Flash 9 :: Flash Interaction With Windows Volume Control?
Nov 28, 2008
Is it possible for flash to access the windows xp system volume controls?I assume flash can't by it's self, but can flash be used to trigger a function in another language that can access and alter the system volume? At least detect if the audio is muted on the system and give the option to turn it on.The flash movie would be embedded in a browser. The content of the movie has audio that is required. We want the user to be able to control the system volume from within the flash movie.
Flash has an API to control the volume for a Sound object. Can volume be controlled like this currently or is there support planned for <audio> or <video> html5 elements?
I have a video chat application where there can be 6 participants. What I would like to do is give the option to each publisher to control their own stream's volume. The code I have looks like this.
[global] private var volumeTransform:SoundTransform; [In the init method where ] outgoingStream = new NetStream( nc );
[Code]....
A possible solution can be this : Calibrate the slider and set the microphone gain, a gain of zero effectively is mute and a gain of 100 is full volume.
I'm writing a WIndows application that embeds Flash which I would like to control through the Windows buttons - for example start, stop... What tools do I need to do this and where can I get the info on how to make it happen? This is not a web app.
I'm having an issue with the PDF displaying outside the viewable area of the mx:HTML control in Flex. When the application starts up - the mx:HTML is set to a certain size, but can be enlarged if the application is maximized. These are the following conditions to replicate it: Issue only happens in Windows (Windows 7, not on Mac) Issue only happens with Reader X installed (not with previous versions) Issue only happens when running the built app, does not happen in debug / development mode from FlashBuilder
I was wondering if there was a way to get the sound from a FLVPlayback component and manipulate it with using a custom volume slider? Within my Actionscript I currently have this code which enables me to control the volume of a MP3:
import fl.events.SliderEvent; var mysong = new music(); var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel(); var myTransform = new SoundTransform(); myChannel = mysong.play(0,10);
[Code]...
But Instead of using the MP3 for sound, is there a way to use an FLV's sound instead?
I've created a small music player with a sliding volume control. I'm having trouble with the volume. Though it does control volume properly, if I set the initial volume to less than 100%, the volume always starts at 100% until I move my mouse over the player. At that point, the volume changes to whatever the initial volume is set to.Is this a flash bug, or am I missing something? Here is the affected code (code for other buttons/functions omitted for brevity):
var song_initvolume:Number = 100; slider_1._x = groove_1._x + song_initvolume; playSong(0,song_play);[code]....
I'd like to be able to set the volume at say 50%, but the above mentioned behavior happens each time.
I'm building a video player and am kinda stuck at the volume slider part. It's a YouTube style vertical slider, meaning if the slider is in the top position volume should be 100% and if the slider is dragged to the bottom position sound should be 0. Currently it's doing the opposite of what I want :(
Dragging the slider down will make the sound louder, while dragging up lowers it.
Here is my code below dealing with the volume slider.
[Code]....
The (-4) is an offset value so when you drag it all the way to turn it off, it's 0 and not 4. I need to reverse this somehow, so the traces above will swap... going down will make userVolume = 4 and going up will make it 30.

using action script2 flash cs3, and i need more than one volume slider/control and each control needs to be assigned to one sound, atm i have more than one volume slider but they all control the same sound!
I have an application with a collection of sounds in the timeline. One sound file is recorded at a slightly lower volume than the others. I know I could change this in Audacity but I'm wondering whether I could attach a line of actionscript to its button to raise its volume slightly.I know its possible to do this when playing sounds with actionscript directly from the library, but that would be too big a departure from the development style used.
If I have library song playing using a simple code like: var mySong:Song = new Song();mySong.play(); How do I use a button to control its volume so that each time it is clicked the volume goes up or down by a little.
Is there a way to configure/control the volume level of an mp3 that automatically plays in your flash segment? In other words I'd like for the volume to play at a 30 or 50% level.
I am doing a elearning project in flex and it consist in a secuence of swf files and a player that load it based in a xml file, the problem is all swf files contents narrations and I need to control the volume of narrations from the player interface, anybody know how I can control the volume of a swf file from flex??
I am trying to write a very simple mp3 player with a volume control slider. My trace statements show that the value of the mp3 volume changes when the slider is moved but the actual volume does not change. I have attached my fla and here is my code:
i'm triying to do a slider bar for control volume but all scripts are for vertical or horizontal movement, but i need do it with a light inclination i have been thinking to give to the limits line a value of x an y for upper possition and other value for x and y for lower position but i don't know to do it.
I'm creating a flash presentation that contains some externally loaded video's (flv), voiceovers and a background music. I would like to be able to control all these audio streams with one control. So basically I'd like to change the volume of the entire movie. Is this possible?
I know there's something like the Sound object with a setVolume() method, but that's only to control one stream as far as I know.
I'm super stuck on this (getting into the days catagory!) before i start, here's the link to what my XML MP3Player functions like atm;[URL]..The foundations of the AS for this player are from the gotoAndplay.com tutorials, I'm having two problems with adding this volume slider control,
Firstly the SliderBar onload position, it is positioned on the far left of the screen, you can drag it towards the player, once you get it with'in the player it functions correctly moving between the designatd left and right x values correctly, but how can i get it to load into the player rather than out to the left?
And Secondly, by this stage you may have noticed no sound, i've tried alot of different things but to no avail?
I'm having issues with controlling multiple sound volumes in flash. What I need to have happen is a Background music softly playing while a voice over is also playing.
This is what i have in the first frame of my main timeline
Code: firstSound = new Sound(BGMusic_mc); firstSound.attachSound("LatinRockMusic"); firstSound.setVolume(10);
[Code]...
but when it starts to play the voice sound the volume jumps up to 100. I need the first sound to stay at 10 and the voice sound to be at 100.
I'm trying to control the volume of an flv in a video player I'm making. I want it's volume control to be independent of any other content on the page. The Video object is in a Component if that makes any difference.
I am able to adjust the volume of the root (aka MovieClip(this.parent).soundTransform ) but I cannot do it to the component itself.
I have tried applying the SoundTransform to the component itself (which is not a MovieClip I know), I have tried placing the Video object in a MovieClip inside the component and attempted to adjust the volume that way with no success...(obviously there's a lot more code than this)
Code: _videoDisplay = new Video(); _videoVolume = new SoundTransform(0); // just using 0 so I can tell when it works this.soundTransform = _videoVolume; // *this refering to the component
i'm triying to do a slider bar for control volume but all scripts are for vertical or horizontal movement, but i need do it with a light inclination i have been thinking to give to the limits line a value of x an y for upper possition and other value for x and y for lower position
I have a timeline with a sound in it set to sync because I am scrubbing the main timeline.... I now want to control the volume of the sound in the timeline..is that possible in AS3??
sometime like : var my_globalSound:Sound = new Sound(stage); that of course doesn't work, but how would I get access to the sound set in the timeline...
Does anyone know of a way to adjust the volume of all the sounds in a swf? I'm looking to build a volume controller that changes the audio level of the swf.
