I finally found out how to make my own sound control buttons but the problem is i'd really like the sound to start up when the flash movie loads and then use the stop and resume button to control it? But when I place the sound on a layer and then click the resume button the sound begins again and is echoed?
View 1 RepliesI have a scene with a voice over. I have split the voice over in to multiple sound files (mp3). The voice over plays correctly as long as you don't use the btns. When the forward btn is used the the file goes to the correct frame in the timeline but won't play the sound. Next issue, after pausing then using play the scene plays but without sound.

I'm just getting into learning ActionScript, I'm using 2.0 for the time being. Anyways, I know how to get clicking buttons to control the sound, but mostly that has just been a matter of muting with the "stopallsounds" function. What I wanted to know is if it is possible to get the keyboard to set the volume at 20%. For example, when you him the "down" arrow key, it goes down to 20% volume automatically.
View 1 RepliesI have to buttons that control the volume. They work fine just that I want to stop when the volume hit 100 and also when you go down to stop at 0. Right now it will go up and down then start the opposite way. I am not quite sure how to stop that(with a if statement).

I am trying to control Sound with actionscript and play and stop buttons.
This is the script I have in frame one of my scene.
[Code]...
playB is the instance of the play button stopB is the instance of the stop button the sound intro is on its own layer and is selected as a streaming sound. My problem is that when I stop and start the sound with the buttons the sound starts from the beginning instead of playing from the frame it is in.
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...
What im trying to do is create 8 button in flash using as2 to control certain keys on the keyboard. When i click a button ive created in flash i want it to trigger a key eg. "a"
View 1 RepliesFor some reason I can not get any Flash document to allow buttons to control movie clips. I might have a coding error or something is wrong with my system. I've got an interactive map with the counties of a state as buttons. The buttons control a movie clip that runs info on each county. I have some other variables and things going on and figured that might have something to do with it. So I just created a test file with 1 movie clip and 1 button.
The movie clip has a stop action on frame 1 and frame 5. It is just a box that is different colors per frame.I've tried several methods and I'm not getting a result from anything. This is an AS 2 file.Button has an instance name of btn and the movie clip is mc. There is only 1 frame in the main timeline.First method was adding the script to the button. This didn't work...
on (press) {
mc.GotoAndPlay(5);
}
Second Method, I placed the actions on frame one of the main timeline.
btn.OnPress = function() {
mc.GotoAndPlay(5);
}
That didn't work either. I even made a AS 3 file and used a Mouse Event, this didn't work either. I have older files that have the same code and do work, but no new files I create with work. I haven't been working in flash for about 2 years, so I might be missing something due to the rust in my brain.
Thoughts?
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.
View 2 RepliesIs there any way I can have multiple sound buttons that works as stop buttons for each other? I mean.. I now got 3 buttons that start 3 different songs, but they overlap each other when I press more than one. I'd like Song 1 to stop when I press Song 2 or 3. And vice versa
View 3 RepliesI have just recently purchased Adobe Flash CS5 and have read through the entire "Classroom In A Book" for Adobe Flash CS4 Professional. However, the book never went into much detail into what I am trying to do. I'm creating a website for me and my fiance because we have formed a classical guitar and flute duo and want to exhibit some of our recordings. I have the buttons for the recordings created with their corresponding sound file. However, I cannot figure out how to stop the file when I click on another button recording; if I click all buttons, all sound files just keep playing simultaneously.

How to import sound with AS? Cuz i have tried it and my sound just wount play. Can you explain me where my sound should be and what is the as code for importing cuz i use
mysound = new Sound();
mysound.attachSound("SoundOn");
mysound.start();
and this SoundON from where i get it, i try to add linkage to the sound file but in CS4 i cant find the option;. I do it from the library, adding text into the linkage field but still my sound doesn't want to play?
I have been at this for about 19 hours straight! I am going to go to bed immediately after this post, but for crying out loud, I have NEVER had this problem before today! Before anyone reads ahead and says 'you have to attach your sound object to a completely separate mc to be able to control it independently from all other sound/root volumes.' see if the following code accomplishes just that:

The buttons are named "play_btn" and "stop_btn" respectively. When I export it or preview it, hitting the play button does not do anything.... I hear no sound. What could be up with this?
but when I test my movie, my navigation buttons flash rapidly and make their "clicking sound" over and over and over..... Could this be a "layers" issue? My navigation buttons reside on a "global content" layer which sits below a "sections content" layer..... and there IS content above these buttons on that layer. I'd try re-arranging the layers and testing the movie, but I am not at home right now... and I was curious to see what some of you might think before I got back home tonight.

View 2 RepliesI am making a banner with an animation (Image change into movie clip "3D Spiral") and added buttons but I cannot get the buttons to control the animation.
View 3 RepliesI don't have much experience with buttons and barely any with action script. I am trying to make a button that is a non-animated symbol on up, a glowing version of the symbol on over, and on down the symbol swaps to an animated symbol that moves across the screen.
But, on the down state, the symbol does not animate like it is supposed to. When I hold the mouse button down, the glow goes away, but the symbol just does not animate as specified in the symbol that appears during the down state.
I tried experimenting with making the button move on the main timeline, adding a stop() command in one of the layers of the up-state symbol, and then adding a play() command to one of the layers of the down state symbol, but nothing seems to work.[code]...
I bought an mp3 player that was supposed to prevent multiple instances of the player from playing at the same time. In other words, if I was playing an mp3 on one instance of the player and then pressed play on another instance, it would pause the original mp3. However, it is not functioning like this and the author of the flash player is not responding to my emails. I've included the code below:

if (songName == undefined) {
songName = "songs/VanessasDub.mp3";

I have a flash header that was never completed because the guy I hired took people's money and ran. So now I even wonder if what he said could work with my flash header is true or not. But, usually there is always a way to make it work.I have a flash header that does two important things: 1) Upon entering the site, it loads and plays an audio track 2) Makes an animal noise when you hover over each animal menu item. (not sure if I'm able to give a link to it or not on here. If I able to and someone would like to see it let me know)I want to know if my flash header can support the following addionalunctionality/changes:1) Currently, it loads everytime a page is selected. I only want it to load the one time of entering the site because the audio gets annoying. Set a cookie maybe?2) But, I do not want to turn the audio off completely because I still want the hover over each menu item sound.
3) Have a link on it to allow them to select to turn on / off the sound completely. It currently has that, but only for the current page. Once you select another page, the audio is back to on.4) Lastlly, is there a way for it to detect that someone doesn't support flash and to display an html version of it? And can flash create a html version from my fla file?I don't know much about flash (but am learning) so I'm not sure if I'll be able to do this myself. However, I want to find out if my flash header will even work this way before I invest the time learning it just for these changes. I know it will be pretty deep with script code, but I'm hoping I could find base code already available for these features.

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.

After browsing the documentation for the sound classes, it seems there is no way to control sound pitch with Actionscript 3.0. there is only the ability to control volume and pan. why is there no pitch property? it's the only sound property missing for the ability to create a full featured sound engine in Actionscript?
i hope i'm misinformed, but in case i'm not are there any alternatives / workarounds to control pitch in AS3?
