Flex :: Flash - Dynamically Load Sound Object From Encoded Bytes?
Jul 20, 2009
I have a legacy file format that contains sounds embedded in it (in various encodings). I would like to be able to play these sounds in Flash (Air?) by reading the sound bytes out of the file and instantiating a Sound object with them.
If the sound is unencoded (e.g., raw pcm), I've found that I can use the new flex 4 SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA event to play the sound.
However, if the sound is encoded (e.g., mp3), then I'm at a loss. The sound expected by SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA has to be raw pcm. From what I've seen, encoded Sounds can only be instantiated by [Embed]ing them, or by using a URLRequest with Sound.load().

Is there any AS3 library or code-snippet that can create altered versions of a Sound object on-the-fly (at runtime)? Either based on:
An existing Sound object; A ByteArray object;
For example, say you have a "dry" sound of a gun-shot. You could:

What I'm trying to do is get the total bytes of all the files I want to load and display the percentage loaded of total bytes and bytes loaded of all the files. Its a slideshow so i want all the files loaded and then it will play. I've looked at bulk-loader but it wasn't what I needed. The image are loaded from an xml file. I think I would need to create an Array and then find out the total bytes but I don't know how to reference the loader in the progress.

I am currently having a problem with Flash CS5. I am trying to link a sound file to my Flash game without having to put it on the stage. It would play when my character got hit by an enemy. The problem is is that when I go to edit the properties, all of the options except to play the sample are all blanked out. This is currently driving me insane as I have done everything I could think of to get around this.

I'm trying to load sound dynamically. I have 4 loops (mp3) and I want them to go like this:
loop1 - loop2 -loop1 - loop3 - loop1 - loop4 and repeat...
Is this possible? I've tried onSoundComplete but how will I get it to start all over?

I am able to record sound from microphone, encode it using SPEEX and write into ByteArray. I want to play it back. If I try using Sound object the audio is messed up. Speex uses 16kHz for encoding and Sound Object needs 44.1kHz for playing audio. How am I supposed to play this encoded sound.

So I've been working on a Flash-based web portfolio for my sound design work, and I'm creating a gallery of images/sound clips which load dynamically (that way I don't need to recompress the swf file every time I add/remove a production). I'm having trouble with checking to see if files exist; for example, I want to check if a sound file exists, and if it does, set the alpha property of a symbol to 100%, and if it doesn't, set the alpha property of that symbol to 25%.
The code I'm using works fine when I test the file locally, but as soon as I upload the file and test it, the movie responds as if a file exists even when it doesn't, and I can't figure out why.

I'm trying to create a script that will check different supplied filename paths, insert them into a movieclip, and retrieve the total bytes of the clip so I can determine whether or not the filename is valid. I'm having trouble with the bolded code below. Basically its checking to see if the loaded clip's bytes are more than 0. If its 0 then I know the path was wrong.I've tried using .onData and .onLoad as event handlers, and getBytesTotal and getBytesLoaded as my conditions for my following if statement. When I trace the result I get 0 even if the movie was successfully found and loaded... anyone know whats wrong?!?!
Code:
if (presType == "web") {
videoName1 = videoName + "_300k.swf";

I have an ActionScript 3 project in which I'm using a Loader to load external SWFs. In Chrome, the Flash Player will not fire Event.COMPLETE if the size of the SWF is greater than 32768 bytes! I tried to use ProgressEvent.PROGRESS and execute the logic when event.bytesLoaded == event.bytesTotal. This works, it does get there, but then loader.contentLoaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition()
Can't find the class inside the SWF.

Is it possible to take two Sound objects and combine them into one Sound object so that one Sound plays, and then the second plays right after it? I can just play the first Sound and then the next right after it, but it would be much cleaner to combine them before playing the audio.

I am trying to load images dynamically to my stage. I am reading an xml file and trying to add the images0 to the scene. For some reason the image file seems to be loaded (I have put a trace "Success to check it") but when I try to addChild nothing happens. This is the code of my class followed by the code of my flash file: The main idea here is to load as many thumbnails as the xml file contains so I can play with them making a horizontal scroll.

I'm developing a flex application that displays a list of images along with some metadataThe images are less than 500kb. They are stored in the database as base64 encoded stringsretrieved using PHP, send over to flex as XML (which creates a fairly large XML output file)Now my problem is that, while I can display upto 2-3 images easily, anything more than 3 or sometimes 2 images will cause the images to be corrupt. Sometimes the whole app fails.I am guessing this is due to the large size of the generated XML. I know I am doing something wrong here. I want to know what is the proper method for storing/retrieving a lot of images in a flex application.

I have an SWF that's 30MB. Sound files (music) make up 25MB, art and other things make up the remaining 5MB.
Would it be possible for me to load the 5MB of necessary art and other things first to allow the user to operate the app, then after that's all loaded and they are operating the app, load the remaining 25MB of sound files in the background?
UPDATE: Loading SWF (or other entities) externally is not an option.

I'm building a slide-show like application in Flex and I'm trying to load images dynamically. The images are in a folder outside the application folder. This is the folder structure:
/Bildvisare-debug/
Bildvisare.html
Bildvisare.swf
/Images/
[Code]....
The problem is that the images never show up, I only get the icon for a missing image.
Edit to add: I've tried this both with and without the use-network flag set to false when compiling.

I am loading multiple images into a class instance and I would like to keep track of how large the complete amount of loaded data is at any given point.I have grabbed the totalbytes from my directory of images via a PHP script... but collecting the new bytes from the ProgressEvent on each image seems tricky for some reason.Let's assume that the totalBytes variable is correct and that I am totally unfamiliar with the way that ProgressEvent works.Does an event get fired every time ProgressEvent gets a new byte? If not, how do I keep track of the current total bytes?[code]

I'm trying to make a minigame in Flash about a mosquito getting smashed and I want the mosquito sound to pan as if it was in front of the player (so if the mosquito is at the right of the screen pan would be 1, and -1 in the left).Problem is, I can only use the sound transform in the play method, which leaves me with many sounds playing if I want to update the position of the mosquito (which happens on enterframe, 24fps).

I want to upload data (not a local file) with Flex (4.1), and show what the progress is of the bytes sent. Now I use a URLLoader, but I know that URLLoader was designed to download data, I can connect a listener to ProgressEvent.PROGRESS but that has no effect. I also know there is a FileReference object which supports uploading. The problem here is, I do not want to browse for a file and upload it. I have a byte array which I want to send to the server, but the data property of FileReference is read-only. How can I send the byte array (which is actually a PNG encoded image) to the server and be able to track the progress of the bytes sent to server?
