how I can switch between different songs?The idea is that an animation will loop continuously (graphic, not a movieclip), and there is one button that will allow the user to change the background music.
View 1 RepliesI want a site to have background music, but when I attach the music to the file it makes it quite large ...3 meg and the site is slow to load. Is there any way of having the music separate from the flash file and still have start stop music buttons?
View 2 RepliesI'm working on an animation where I have my "dog" fighting the evil vacuum cleaner. I got most of it to work the way I want it to.
1) I have movie clips entitled pepper_mc (where my dog is supposed to be walking), swirl (where a swirly-type symbol is supposed to spin over the dead vacuum's head), and vacuum_mc (where the evil vacuum is supposed to have a swinging arm (called vacuumarm_mc) that I created using the bone tool). When I add them to the stage and test them, the animations within the movie clips don't happen.
2) I have background music that I'd like to stop playing at the end of the animation, but I'm not sure how to do that. (using the stop(); actionscript doesn't help).Where am I going wrong? I'm using Flash Pro CS5.
Here's the file --> Pepper and the Vacuum of DOOM!
When the movies performs the getURL action, I want the music to continue playing, but the getURL function seems to stop the music at frame 152 (where the getURL action is placed), when I wanted the music to continue to frame 257 (the end of the movie). I hope I've explained this clearly
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a music animator. It will have bars that move up and down do the beat of the music. This is like windows media player where the music animations play. I want it to be verticle bars, where some are in sync with like the base and others are in sync with the tempo. Does anyone know of a tutorial for this? I am trying to emplement it within my website so that whatever music I am playing will auto control the bars and sync.
View 5 RepliesI downloaded a flash template and have modified it to suit our company but there is something that I can't do. When the file loads in the browser, music immediately plays and loops until you click a button to stop the music. On our video page, we have video

I am streaming music from my site using flash, but after the 3rd music is done, it just stops. Do i have to flush something or create a new music object for each 3 songs?
View 6 RepliesI have 'Sound On' and 'Sound Off' buttons on mutiple scenes and I am playing the music loop in my flash movie by loading an external swf. When I move to the next scene the sound reloads which I do not want. How do I use an if-statement that checks whether or not the music.swf, that needs to be loaded is found and when it is found, go to a frame?

Basically what I'm wondering is, will I lose the value of i in the first switch once I'm out of the switch? Can the second switch read the 1st switch?

I have a website banner made in Flash. I have added a music file to it and Play and Stop buttons. I also have a Replay button to replay the banner animation once it stops.
I have put the music on a separate frame so that it will not play automatically when the banner loads. I have made the Play button direct to the frame the music is located at so that when clicked, it will go to that frame and play the music file.
The problem I am currently having is that if I click the Play button more than once, it will play the music file again on top of the current play-through.
So if I click Play, the music will play. Then if I click it again, the music will play again, but on top of the first instance of the music, so two instances of it will now be playing and it sounds horrible.
I would like to make it so that if you click Play when the music is playing, it will not play the music again until the music has stopped.
ok i have a music off button...i want the text to change from "music off" to "music on" and for the actionscript code to change so that the music will turn on when you press on and not off when you press on.
Would I use attachMovie and just convert my button to a movieclip or is there another way? etc, loadmovie.
I know there is an easy answer to this and it is at the tip of my tounge.
Im working on a project where i have to develop an audio application for an android smart phone, but i have to present a mock app so i designed it in flash. I have a rough app where it loads the song, plays, pauses, foward, and previous, but im stuck flash isn't my first language, as you can tell from the attached .as file there are two things i need help in one is: when one clicks the next button the audio clip from the current song should fade out and the next song should fade in while the other song fades out. second thing is i don't know how to get a working seek bar for the player.
View 3 RepliesI'm currently building a Flash Game for my work. I made a switch to check if my items fell into the right bucket.

I followed a tutorial about how to create a simple website. The buttons i've created SHOULD fade out the current page and fade in the new page. In it's current state it fades out the m1 instance (mainmenu_mc) but won't fade in the new page selected(p1,p2,p3orp4). After it's faded out if i click in the same area the button was the mainmenu_mc page flashes onto the screen. and when i let go of clicking it, dissapears again.
Code:
var m1:mainmenu_mc =new mainmenu_mc;
var p1:page1 =new page1;

I am trying to create a weekly calendar. I have a 'switch' statement that shows the week dates and the name of month the week relates too. I have three functions
1. takes the pc date and converts it into the day of the year. eg between 1 and 365
2. it takes the day from 1. and assoicates it to the week number eg 1 - 52
3. functions that are associated with a previous and next button that use the current week number based on the pc date and count up and down.
This is where I have come unstuck. This is the code for my 'next' button.
Code:
function onClickNext(event:MouseEvent)
{
if(currentWkNum != 53)

I am a pretty good programmer in as3 - but I don't know OOP. -- and I am not so good that I don't have a ton learn -- when I look at all the differnt script commands I know my knowledge is tiny. I am now at the point where I could look at a website and make a pretty good attempt at coppying it and most my programming is dynamic driven. So I was wondering by making the leap to OOP would I have relearn a lot of what I know -- and what are the advantages

I have the following code in frame 2, and frame one doesn't have anything, meaning it doesn't allow the user to draw. However, after returning to frame 1 from frame 2, you can still draw.

How would I switch between 2 sounds in Actionscript?I need something where depending on a Boolean, a certain song is playing (a loop) and every time you switch, it saves the time so when you go back,instead of it starting at the beginning,it starts where last stopped.Say I was playing Sound one and stopped it at 0:25.And when I went back to Sound one it started at 0:25.
