Actionscript 3 :: Play Sound Without Delay?
Jun 16, 2011
I've got a couple of classes.
My document class (Main.as) instantiates the class player and Soundsloader.
In the player class when the player picks up an item in the game, i want to play a short sound. I do this with the following code: MovieClip(this.main_object.sound_loader).playPickUp();
In my document class i also instantiate the SoundsLoader which basically should load all the sounds. (just one in my sample code below)
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class SoundsLoader extends MovieClip{
[Code]...
However when i use the methods my swf file freezes for a moment, plays the sound and then continues. So what's the best way of doing this ? (i'm using a .wav sound)

I am trying to develop my first flash app. The application emulates a "karaoke" service. It plays a background sound and at the same time records the sound coming from the mic. I use the "sound" class to play the sound (s.play() ) and the "netStream" class to record the mic sound (ns.publish("mysound", "record") ). In the same app, I then try to play these two sounds together. The problem is that I cannot synchronize them. My tests drove me to a conclusion which I am not certain for. The conclusion is that the method s.play() has a delay about 500ms until the sound starts playing. The result is that recording starts 500ms earlier than playback. When, then, I playback both of them the recording sound is 500ms after the backround sound. Is that delay for sure true?

What I have is a landing page on my customers site, I want to hold it there until the user clicks a button in the flash file it then plays a short sound, 2 seconds and redirects the page. I have tried setinterval and cannot get it to work. What I have loads the flash file and after the set time plays the file then redirects, cutting off the sound.
On Frame1
Code:
var sndMusic = new Sound();
sndMusic.attachSound("mySound");
var duration:Number = 5000; // set the call delay
[Code].....

I've done the getting the time right bit and the ticking bit, but big problem arises with the background music. It's different every second, and what I want is that is it's launched at, say 19:00:00 the music will start at 00 seconds, if it's launched at 19:00:22 - at 22 seconds, at 19:00:45 - at 45 seconds etc. So far I have no idea how to do it, I am a total newbie in Flash..

The first time around, the sound play's exactly on time, After that it has about a 30-60 millisecond delay to re play it again. if i wait about 20 seconds it will be able to play exactly on time again...? Im new to the sound class, but i don't think i have done anything wrong...my sound is imported to the library, exported for actionscript,i have tried:
Code:
var myAudio:Sound= new myCustomSound();
myAudio.play(0,1);
[code]....
simply put the sound on the timeline of a movieClip its all the same, in the play() method, i have tried start time of 0 or 1 or not at all, same with # of loops. i have tried to re-create the sound object each time its called, or have other sounds in the background, or create longer sounds. ive used mp3s,wavs, the audio file has no silence at the beginning of it.
this happens in the flash ide, or the published swf or on my phone using air for android settings, problem is on the phone its a larger delay i would say 60 to 150 milliseconds, otherwise it probably wouldn't be a problem. on my phone, using mrDoobs stats class i can actually see the frame rate drop from 30 to 25 back to 30 once that estimated 20 seconds is up and its "ready" to play on time again. Something happens after that 20 seconds that it clears up and it will play on time again. I dont know what to think
I re-created it in a regular non air/android swf and its the same issue, i attached it if anyone want to take a look. so hard to see the delay on a regular cpu as the response is good, but its there. click to make a noise, do it again once on the balls on the platform and you will see that tiny audio delay as the ball jumps. however wait 20 sec and it will be exact again.

I have made this little thing, its more or less just to try out some basic scripting, its a button that you would push and when you do so it would play a random sound out of six different sounds, and it does all that, but it delays the sound, so it has a short delay, does anyone know how to fix this? Here is a link to the page where the button is (test page).[URL]...

I've been suffering the fliction of making sounds playing synchronized in Flash, I load 4 mp3 files externally and once all of the 4 mp3 loaded completely, let them play, but they starts not at the same time, the files starts unsynchronized with a random manner, some times file a starts first, some times file c starts first, there are always files delay about 500ms, the wierd thing is, O only see it's running sync in one computer, in firefox browser, in IE not. Same problem like, we always experience the case that, when we click a music player button, the sound not starts immediately or click a stop button, the sound not end immediately.

I have recently updated to Flash CS4 and AS3 from Flash 8 - apart from one issue I have with the Sound Object. There seems to be a delay in the loaded MP3 playing when told to. This means that I am unable to add SFX to the game I am developing for a client, because the sound plays about 1-2 seconds after it is told to play. How to tee the Sound up, so that it plays immediately?
The process I am using is this:
Class defined to load all game assets defined in XML
All Sounds are loaded into their own Sound Object and a reference to each is held in an array and passed to the relevant Class (i.e. Player). The relevant Class tells the reference to the Sound to play - it plays, but 2 seconds after the collision detection Event has told the sound to play.

I have a few animations that run on different scenes each time a scene is loaded the external audio should start with it. Well here is the thing the animation always starts before my audio files and each scene gets bugged. I need to create an action that only allows my scene to start with the audio and also starts loading the next audio so it wont be dellayed.
On the first scene I have the following code:
scene 1 frame 1
var autoPlay:Boolean;
if(!autoPlay){
stop();}
scene 1 frame 2 animation starts and audio 1 loads
import flash.media.Sound;

I have some sounds on buttons:
Code:
var mySound:Sound = new myLibrarySound();
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playSound);
function playSound(e:Event):void
[code]....
... and that works fine. I then have some streaming music:
Code:
var myStream:Sound = new Sound();
myStream.load(new URLRequest("myPath.mp3"));
myStream.play(0);
... and that works fine too. Now, however, the initial button sounds have a slight delay -- I'd estimate about 150-250 ms. It's enough that rollover click noises happen about the time you click, and click noises happen about the time you release, etc. Now, here's the KICKER. It only happens in FIREFOX. CURSE FIREFOX. Seriously. I've been having so many Flash issues in FF3, it just drives me nuts. Firefox and wmode is a pain, Firefox and sound is a pain, Firefox has been crap for Flash development lately.

It's possible to play a sound file through AS, either by loading it from a folder or import it to flash. It's also possible to play a dynamic tone with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat.
But... is it possible to play a sound file with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat in some way? I want to play a sound file without having to deal with any files except the .swf!

I'm working on a Flash intro for a site. After the Flash movie plays I want it to wait three seconds and then send them to the index page. Currently I'm using the action script:
[Code]....
I've got that keyed to the last frame. The issue is at the end of the Flash movie it displays the company logo image. Well with that script added to the last frame it just quickly blips up the logo then takes you to the main page so fast you don't even get to really see the logo. I want the viewer to have a couple seconds to take it in, but then move them along to the main site without them having to look for a button to press.

I am new to flash. I can't seem to decifer the script examples in the help files. After a lot of trial and error the following codes works great. It delays playback on the video for the proper amount of time. The only problem is when the playback loops (like it should) the codes executes again. I only want to execute the code the first time thru.

I need to realize a multiple-track player. The user can upload multiple tracks and mix (play them together). My problem is to allow the user to define an exact start position of each track to allow a synchronization between them, something like this:
Track 1: start at [x] sec.
Track 2: start at [y] sec.
play/stop
where the user can set the x and y. I've tried to realize it with AS2 (using netstream and setInterval) and AS3 (using netstream or sound and timer). Only if I set the same x and y both tracks are playing simultaneously.

I'm trying to add sound to some buttons. It's just a little metallic 'klink' sound that plays on rollover. I only want the sound to play on the 'Over' state. So I've set up a layer (just for sound) for the button and I add my sound in the 2nd frame (the Over state). Everything is cool. All is good. And the sound plays on rollover. But the sound also plays when I click the button (i.e. it also plays on the "Down" state). Why? The Down state keyframe is completely empty. What's going on here? I've only put the sound in the "Over" keyframe, why does it also play in the "Down" frame (or when I click)?

I want to create a function based (not frame) delay of about 10 seconds to the function at the start of a flash movie, the code only needs to run once.I'm very new to actionscript and have been given links to SetInterval and SetTimer examples but they all seem to be very complex.The function is below. I believe it's possible to add the commandTimer(delay:Number, repeatCount:int = 0) how me to a simple example.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
framePos = int(_xmouse / 100 * _parent._totalframes);
if (framePos < 0) {

I have a "onRelease function"
CODE:
btn_4.onRelease = function () {
var yTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(slider, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, slider._x, 695 , 0.600000, true);
}
This works good but I like to add in a "onRelease" play sound, too. How it have to look like and where do I have to place the sound? Because: When I add in a new function "onRelease" both block each other.

I've got 3 swf files and they are all nested. Here's the structure: [code]The sound clip "m1p1" is loaded in the library of "cc_mod1_shell.swf".This setup works when I just test "cc_mod1_shell.swf". I can hear the sound clip. But, when I test the root level "cc_ shell. swf", the sound does not play. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Why would this._ parent work when I'm just using the 2 files in question, and not when they are nested in another file?.

How do you get sound to play?
I am importing the sound and exporting in with an identifier "sjump".
I am trying to play the sound from a seperate .as file with the following code:
var sound_sjump:Sound = new Sound();sound_sjump.attachSound("sjump");sound_sju mp.start(1,0);
Why won't it play?!
Some of my sounds like if I attach "coin" instead of "sjump" work? Why is this?
