The only way i can describe this is showing the code I have already then trying to explain what i want to do.Basically, I am creating a soundboard game, where at the bottom of the screen I will have a bar which is a movieclip, and I will be dragging other movieclips onto it and then clicking pay, and using an array and .push they will play in order. I am trying to put the sounds onto the movieclips using code.[code]...

I know the SoundMixer.computeSpectrum and Sound.extract() methods , but those methods deal with the total sound output. Instead, is there a way to deal with every single SoundChannel, so as to provide a graphical visualization of each of them?
View 1 RepliesI Am wondering if is possible to use one sound channel to play through an array of sounds? Perhaps by using a complete event or other means?

View 1 RepliesCannot read property (or target) a Sound thats playing in a SoundChannel.... in this case I am refering to a class the extends the Sound class (SoundEffect class), that is currently playing in a SoundChannel. Each SoundEffect has a volumeLevel property that I would like to restore once I have unmuted the SoundEffect's in my application. I cannot figure out how to target that property once its playing in the Channel.I am extending the Sound class:

Does anybody know a way to detect what audio is currently being played through a sound channel. i.e. if I set a sound name to "_hitting", and attach this to "mySoundChannel", then mySoundChannel = _hitting.play(); is there any request that will tell me that "_hitting" is being played?

I built an application on Windows XP and Vista. And it seems that the sound channel constructor decides not to run with no speakers attached. Runs fine when headphones are plugged in, but when no speaker device is present the Sound object is constructed, but the Sound Channel never seems to make it.
I did some testing and even the most basic Sound Constructor fails to create the default sound channel if there are no speakers connected.
In the following example channel turns up as null if no speakers are present on a Windows machine. I/O Error doesn't throw anything for me either.
This is a modified version of the example from the Adobe Docs:
Code:
private var channel:SoundChannel;
public function sound_test(){
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("audio.mp3");

I have this FLA with animation and when played, the animation has alpha channel. I cant understand why when I look in the library I see the frames without the alpha channel and also when I try to export/extract the image again the image dont have alpha channel. How is it that in flash this image has alpha channel and how to get it out like that into PNG? Here is the link to download the FLA:[URL]..
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to import a QuickTime movie with alpha channel into an FLA and have the FLA recognize the Alpha channel? When I've done this, it just shows opaque black instead of an alpha channel. I need that black to be transparent so I can see the layers below the video layer.
View 6 RepliesI have a BitmapData object with an alpha channel. I'd like to know the fastet way to offset that alpha channel in ActionScript3 (FlashPlayer10). By offsetting I mean shifting all pixels of that channel in one direction (wrapping around the image borders) while leaving the color channels as they were.Is there a good way to apply a such a transform to one channel only?
View 2 RepliesI have two BitmapData objects with alpha channels. I'd like to combine them into a single one by using max(channel_image_one, channel_image_two) for each channel, including the alpha. Is there an easy way to achieve this result?

View 2 RepliesWhat is the best way to create a video with an alpha channel, suitable for flex/flash? Does it need to be FLV, or can it be MP4/MOV as well?
View 1 RepliesI have this FLV movie file that's got a premultiplied alpha channel and I want to insert it into a webpage to play as an animation, I imported it into flash and that's where I'm a bit lost as to how to make it appear transparent
The video looks to be inverted so background is black and the animation is white so if I try to publish it like that it just stays the same so it doesn't look right
I was wondering if Flash was able to handle PNG files with 16 bits per channel. I seem to remember (quite clearly actually) from some official blog post on Pixel Bender, that since Flash only handles 8 bits per channel and Pixel Bender works at 24, a conversion occurs when data is passed from Flash to PB and vice versa. (this thread is totally unrelated with Pixel Bender though) So if I'm correct, Flash uses 8 bits per channel even if you try to load a 16 bits per channel PNG. Do you guys have any experience whether this is a fact or not?econdly, assuming this is a fact...could I still load a 16 bits per channel into Flash, not to display it but to convert the data to a 8 bits per channel PNG that I would save as a file. For instance the 16 BpC PNG could be loaded in a ByteArray and I'd work from here, however I have to know whether the PNG would still be 16 BpC once it reach the ByteArray.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to import an image and assign it to a Loader object, which works just fine, though I want to use the PNGEncoder rather than a the JPGEncoder, because if the source image has an alpha channel (transparency) I want that data preserved. The code, or the encoder, or something is preventing or deleting the alpha channel data. What should be transparent is showing as white.

I'm trying to accomplish a similar effect as seen on :[URL].. I suspect its just perlin noise displacement with a loop on the DisplacementMapFilter to decrease/increase the distortion over time as well as an alpha tween. I have been able to spy that they are using caurina tweener, which isn't of interest to me.
Its the principle I'm after, not a copy of their effect. I'm trying to assign an alpha value to say, the White/Black area of a PerlinNoise generated Bitmap. Where the White would be 0% and the dark 100%. And have that White value increase over time so that the entire image, the filter is applied to, gradually fades into view.

I am developing an application similar to MS Paint. I am building a Flash Paint application. The basic structure is this. I have two layers namely topLayer_mc and bottomLayer_mc. The actual vector drawing is drawn on the top layer and onmouseUp of the tool, a bitmap copy of the vector graphics on the top layer is taken and added as a bitmap to the bottom layer. The top layer is cleared subsequently. It is working for the pencil tool.
Now I need to create an eraser tool. This is where things get tricky. In the application there is an option to save the image as png, so alpha has top be preserved. So the coventional method of draw a brush using the vector and using the draw method of bitmap will not work. Of course, on a visual level it would work if the brush drawn using the vector is to have the same color as that of the background. The eraser's are rectangular in shape.
The technique I am tring to use is to use the copyChannel method of BitmapData class. Specify a channels (say GREEN channel )hex value as 00 and make it as the source. Then make the destination channel ALPHA. I got it working without using movieclips as shown below.

I am new to Flash. I bought a template online a couple weeks ago, and for the most part have made all the changes to personalize the page. The page is for wedding videography, and came with a Videos section. However, I do not like the template video player, and would like to have the Videos link on the menu bar go straight to my youtube channel rather than to the flash player. Primarily all changes to the template have been made in a text.txt file, rather than the flash file itself. My question is, how could I change the link on the main page to route to my youtube channel? Here's what it looks like in the text file:

I tried to deploy my otherwise working flex app on a web server (tomcat 6).It threw a Channel.Security.Error.After some research, I became aware that flash movie loaded from flash_movie_domain will not be able to load resource from any other domain.Some suggested adding a crossdomain.xml.However, the crossdomain.xml route doesn't quite make sense.In this case, I am loading resources from a third party web site.My understanding is that I need this third party website to include a crossdomain.xml on their root directory in order for app to function.The third party web service is provided as is. I will not be able to change what's given. Since the third party is providing public access, it already explicitly give permission to the general public. Adding a crossdomain.xml to their root seems to be a redundant act?
View 1 RepliesIs there any AS3 library or code-snippet that can create altered versions of a Sound object on-the-fly (at runtime)? Either based on:

I have a project that requires me to display the waveform for a uploaded sound. The sound is always an MP3, most of the time 22.05 kHz mono, with speech only. The project are written with Flex/ActionScript 3. It's meant to run in the browser, but might also consider converting to AIR if that can help.
All examples I've found and looked at for generating a wave, are either doing some visualization in real time as the sound is playing, or, the most promising, as3soundeditorlib, keeps the wave already generated, but does it very slowly, seemingly using as long time as playing through the audio would've taken.Is there any way to generate the wave faster than real time?
