Actionscript 3 :: Playing A Sound In Flex (Flash) And Hearing Nothing
Jan 19, 2012
I'm doing a by-the-book sound playback in Flex and I can't hear it.
I tried this:
var snd : Sound = new Sound();
snd.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function(e : Event) : void
{
snd.play();
[Code].....
But I hear nothing. Launching the same mp3 file in vlc plays it fine. So yes, my speakers are turned on. :)
It's not the loading. I can see it's actually loading those 40k bytes fine, and if I give the wrong URL I do get an IOError. It's as if it's playing but nothing can be heard.

This captures microphone sound and changes the alpha of 'foo' according to the sound level. However, I hear the microphones input. I want the visuals to work without hearing any sound. How would I do that?

I'm trying to play a sound using a technique found here (play the sound by sampling raw sound data gathered from the original with extract()), with the difference that the mp3 sound is embedded in the swf, not loaded externally. This is my code:
var soundBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
var mp3sound:Sound = Sound(new Sound1_design()); // this is the embedded sound
mp3sound.extract(soundBytes, int.MAX_VALUE);
[Code]....
This works, in a way, except that the resulting sound is distorted (it has a kind of a metallic ring).

I have a mp3 file and I would like to play it from one position and for a certain duration. I have first used the Sound class, the play method where I can specify the start but not the duration. I have looked then at SoundEffect class where you can specify a duration and a startTime. However I do not know how to play it from a AS3 class not from MXML : there is a play method ... but I get no sound!

I have made a little mashup mixing maps, translate api and flickr. I get the directions from my map and make mp3 files on the fly to play them at the same time but they only play in firefox and for the rest of the browsers I only get my first sound channel with background music. can't figure out why.

I have a set of sound clips to be played one after another in a sequence with couple of time interval inbetween. In my case, its a question - followed by the set of four options.
When I write the below code, all the audop files start together at same time. How can I had time delay inbetween, so that the second clip plays only after the first one is over, and the third one starts playing, only when the second option is over.

I have a sound clip that I'm loading externally into my flash file. The code I'm using looks like this and is placed in the as layer on the first frame,
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var myTransform = new SoundTransform();
var lastPosition:Number = 0;
mySound.load(new URLRequest("introaudio.mp3"));
myChannel = mySound.play();

I am creating a game that has 6 movieclips all on the main time line of the game. Each movie clip has three buttons that when clicked plays, pauses or stops a sound clip.When I press any of the sound clip play buttons that sound starts playing, the problem is when I click any of the other sound clip play buttons those sounds also start to play. Is there a way I can disable the other sound clip buttons while the current sound is playing then enable all of the buttons when the current sound has stopped.
This is the code that creates one of the sound objects

So I made a few buttons with sounds within them and when I publish it they work just fine. But what I want them to do is;
Say I click a Button.The sound starts playing.Then I click it again, before the sounds done playing.I want it to stop the playing sound and start playing the button I just clicked on, whether it be the same button, or a different one.Right now it just ends up sounds like an echo because it'll play it as many times as you click it.

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 have a [code]...
If I directly add "playBeep()" in the AS3 code, then it plays the sound. I have added allowscriptaccess=always in the embed code.

I have buttons with sound attached in over state and that works just fine, but this means that you are going to hear sounds only when you move cursor over button, how can i make some background sound to play from the moment flash is loaded, even when buttons are inactive, my background image looks like some electrical equipment and and i want to make it sound realistic (sound clip must to be set to loop) and must to start at the moment flash is loaded?

ok so i have a button that plays an animation for fire when held down. and when realsed goes to and stops and frame one. when it reaches the end of the time line it goes to and plays at frame 10 and goes back to the end of the timeline. I have a sound for the fire animation that plays for the effect. The problem is the sound keeps going untill its over even if the button isnt held down. and when the playhead reaches the end of the timeline it goes to and plays and frame 10 and it replays the sound. if i hold it down it will just keep playing the sound over and over from start to finish. what i want it to do it when i hold the button down i want it to play the sound and when released it stops the sound where ever it is at. I also dont the sound to play again if there is a sound already going to stop it from playing 20 sounds at one time it gets loud and you need asprin after about 5 seconds of that.

The thing I don't understand is how to assign a sound to a soundchannel without playing the sound. All the examples I've seen do this.
Code:
_SoundChannel = _sound.play();
_SoundChannel.stop();
And how can I set a SoundChannel volume to zero before allocating a sound to it?

I have a flash application, some kind of a play-list that loads external SWF video player (I don't have code access to that external file), so users can watch the video or skip to another one. When user switches to another video new SWF file is being loaded.
The problem: If user didn't finish watching the video and skips to the next then I unload previous SWF file (unloadAndStop()) and load a new one. And because the previous SWF was playing it is not actually unloaded, it is still playing on the background (I hear two audio tracks: current and previous).

I have made a 5 min animation with stream sound. Its playing perfectly in PC. But in mac,its not playing. Stream sound starts from frame 60. So mac plays the swf plays till 60 frame, after that it pauses. I tried importing different sound format (wav, aif, mp3) and tried with all sound export setting but the problem remain same; its playing only till 60. When i removed the sound, it played till end. Even with event sound, it plays till end. But with stream sound, the problem. The problem is only in mac; in pc its perfect.I am using VMware Mac OS x leopard in window xp for testing purpose. I tested it in laptop with mac; but the problem is same. What could be the solution?

I am trying to use Javascript to intercept keyboard events, so I can do CMD-W for "close-window" and whatnot, inside a Flash application, so the Browser doesn't get to use them. Well, I am able to listen for ALT, CTRL, and CMD onKeyDown/onKeyPress events, but I am not able to listen to anything else...
Here is the code, in the index.html file from a Flex Project:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
document.onkeydown = function(event) {applicationKeyboardHandler(event)}
document.onkeypress = function(event) {applicationKeyboardHandler(event)}
function applicationKeyboardHandler(event) {
alert("Key Pressed")
} </script>
I would like to make it so it could listen to any key press, not just alt/ctrl/cmd.

I'm working on a site, for kids, which has a small avatar in the corner that talks.The avatar is a flash file and the plan is to determine what it says through a mix of javascript and ajax.
Unfortunately when I make the flash file play an Mp3 file through JavaScript, I can't seem to stop the sound.. so when I keep clicking on a link which causes it to talk, I hear the sound repeated x times.
The odd thing is, when I attach the very same code to a button in flash, there seems to be no such limitation. It seems as if it won't store anything in global variables when calling from JavaScript.

I'm trying to make a player with EQ, get the data in the Sound object, but for some reason with the desired point to play it I can not play it right from the start of the track.
_out_snd.addEventListener(SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA, processSound);
_channel = _out_snd.play(pos);
function processSound(event:SampleDataEvent):void {
_samples = new ByteArray();
var len:Number = buf[trackDesc].sound.extract(_samples, BUFFER_SIZE);

I'm working on an interactive flash software which consist of playing audio and showing slideshows, for each slideshow there is a corresponding sound clip.
To organize the sound so I can easily pause and play it, I make the sound as movie clips and put them on one layer. When there is a slide change, I put a keyframe that consist of the corresponding sound movie clip for the slide, and delete the previous sound movie clip from the stage.
However, when I do gotoAndPlay() to the beginning of slide 2 from slide 3, the sound for slide 1 started playing too. I'm confused since I have deleted the first sound movie clip just before the beginning of the slide 2.

I've been working on a flash game, and recently added in sound effects. However, the sound effects only seem to play the first half-second of the audio file whenever I call on them to. I have been using the standard code.
ActionScript Code:
on (rollOver) {
if (_global.sound) {
_global.SFX1.start(0,1);
}}
But the sound effect only plays through a small amount of the audio. Also, the sound effects are not very stable, and will only play the butchered audio if there is some time in between clicking on several buttons. The odd thing is that I took the same code to another flash file, and the audio played through all the way with no problem, not requiring any additional time to play the sound effect again. I used the same code to load the sounds, which is
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_global.Music1 = new Sound();
Music1.attachSound('Music1');
_global.Music2 = new Sound();
Music2.attachSound('Music2');

How do I get a sound to play throughout the entire flash site in the background? Go to [URL] and you will see what I mean. Its a great site by the way! In this "crucial limit" site, he has tunes playing in the background, and they keep playing despite how deep you navigate through the site, no matter what button you press, the song continues to play without stopping.

I wanted to make a visulisation based on sound, like a winamp plug in.The only thing that even remotely looks like it uses sound information is the sound players on FlashKit. (although they might be faking it)url...Is there any information that can be pulled from a currently playing sound in Flash to base a animation off ?

I am trying to embed some sound controls, and have hit a dead end. I made my play and stop buttons, imported my mp3,, assigned it proper linkage, and inserted this AS2 :
[Code]...
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?

Im making an animation and in the 3rd scene i have a deer that screams and the sound plays way to early. I had to drag it out way past the frame where it opens its mouth for it to play at the right time.
I have no idea whats wrong this has happened before. I really dont want to have to guess on where to put the sound for everything a character says.

Back to my nightmare project, I've embedded sounds in the project that play based on certain user actions. They play fine for me (PC), but my customer is telling me they don't work for her (Mac).Would there be ANY reason a sound would play on a PC but not a Mac?I've told her to update her Flash player to make sure it's current and to make sure her speakers are on and the volume is up, but no sound.Okay, the REAL reason this isn't working is user error based on everything else I'm told that's happening and not happening, but I need to cover my bases and see if there really may be a reason sounds won't play on a Mac.

I have a playhead that moves across the screen and when it hitTests a movie clip it plays a sound. all is working fine except that it will only work the first time it is played. The playhead is controlled by a button. I am working in Actionscrpt2. Here is the code on the movieclip:
onClipEvent(enterFrame)[code]....
In the begining I was having trouble because the hitTest was playing the sound over and over but the above code sorted that out. I think that the new problem was created by fixing the old one.
