Music On Off Button
In my portfolio i would like to add a music on/off button. I know i can make a two frame movie clip that will do this, but i dont want to use stopallsounds because then everytime you start the music again it starts the song over. By the way, im using flash five. Im still thinking about using a two frame movie clip, but i want the music to pause instead of stop. I noticed a start and stop actionscript for sound that might be usefull, however, it doesn't work for me. I tried using the help and couldnt figure it out. I was trying this action script out: code: mySound.start(["music"]) At least i think it was something like that. Any help would be appreciated.

I Need Some Help About A On/off Music Button
Hi!
I am in front of a serious problem. I think that it is just a matter of 2-3 lines of action script but I still can't solve my problem. So the situation is the following:

I'm developing a flash site in which I'm using on/off music button which is a movieclip with 2 buttons inside - one for "music off" and te other for "music on". The sound is put in the 1 frame where is put the "music off" button as well. Everything work perfectly to the moment where my movie reaches some frames where the above mentioned "on/off music button" is used again and here is the mess - it starts playing again.
I wish is things to be like that:
Once you've entered the site and everything is loaded the music starts playing and is your decision whether to leave it playing or to stop it(using the "on/off music button" provided. Later when the same button appears to perform actions when pressed as it follows: if the user had left the music playing earlier this time the music to be stopped by pressing the button,and the other state: if the user had stopped the music earlier this time on releasing the button the music to start again. I think that it should be done with "if" statements but I can't do it Give me some help with this please!
Thanks in advance!!!

On/ Off Music Button Script
I need a script that will turn music on and off, it must target a sound file with the same .swf file and not effect any other buttons. At present I have two buttons targeting a movie clip with the music in however when I press on other buttons with a rewind script on for navigation purposes it starts playing the music again, any considerations would be very much appreciated.

Music OnOff Button Help
OK i have a music button that on the start of my site, it plays with the text "music off". Meaning if you click it the music goes off via the telltarget action and then the text "music on" will appear
on (release) {
tellTarget ("bgm") {
play ();
}
}
The bgm is a movie clip on the music button that is actually the text with two layers. The top layer has two frames, each with the music. The first is the mucic in the event state of playing with a fade in and looping over and over, and a stop action in the frame. The second is the music in the event state of stopped with the action stop on the frame. The bottom layer is the text, the first fram "music off", second "music off". OK, so if you turn the music off my clicking the button with the telltarget action on it, the music will turn off. If you have the music off and procede with going throught the timeline in cronological order, everything works fine. BUT, if you go backwards in the timeline ( like by pushing a button to direct you backwards ) THE MUSIC STARTS PLAYING. How do I prevent this? Please help.

Music Button Onoff
Hi
I am making a MC with a on/off music button, this is what I have

on (release) {
stopAllSounds();

}


What do I need to turn it back on .

ALSO I have some more dumb questions. I am confused about frame actions and object actions, a frame action is a action on a certian frame when the movie gets to it, so how do you assign a object action, I have noticed I must have used it in my music button because their isn't a action symbol anywhere on the button layer but it is turning it off. Could someone explain it to me!

Pause Button In Music How?
Hey, I have a mediaplayer on one of the pages that I created. The player has three 20 second loops, a play button, a stop button, and a pause button. How do I make the pause button function as a pause button, for as of now the pause button is just acting like a stop button. Here is my code for the pause button.


on (release) {
if (action eq "pause") {
action = "play";
status = "playing tr. " add playtrack;
tellTarget ("tracks") {
gotoAndStop("track" add ../laytrack);
}
play();
} else {
if (action eq "play") {
action = "pause";
status = "paused tr. " add playtrack;
tellTarget ("tracks") {
gotoAndStop("stop");
}
stop();
}
}
}

Music On/off Toggle Button
This should be simple - but its driving me mad!

I am trying to script a music on/off button to control the music playing on a large movie - various different pieces all loaded dynamically with a fadein function.
After the first piece starts in the intro there is a music off button with this script:


Code:
on (release) {
if (done_it != 1) {
back.stop();

done_it = 1
}
}
which basically sets the flag done_it to 1 when the music is off. All other pieces loading check against this flag and will only fadein if done_it != 1.
So far so good.
I also want to add an optional music/on off button which will check against this flag and fadein the music if there is none already playing, or stop all sounds if something is playing.
Thus I have another button later in the movie with this script - and its this that is giving me problems:


Code:
on (release)
{
if (done_it == 1) {
fadeIn01 = 1
if (fadeIn01 == 1) {
// fadeIn01 can be set to 1 when a button is
// pressed, when a frame is reached or many other ways.
_root.beat.setVolume(beatVolume);
// Sets the volume for the sound object "beat"
// to the variable "beatVolume" every time the
// frame is entered during the movie clip loop.
beatVolume = beatVolume+2;
// Increments the variable "beatVolume" by 5.
// Increase or decrease this to change the speed of
// the fade from 0 to 100.
if (beatVolume>25) {
fadeIn01 = 0;
// This stops the "beatVolume" from incrementing
// by making the if-statement false once the volume
// reaches 25%.
}
//Closes 2nd fadeIn if-statement}
}done_it = 0
//Closes 1st fadeIn if-statement}
}

else {if (done_it != 1) {
stopAllSounds();
done_it = 1

}
}
}
//Closes function
This works partially in that it will switch off music already playing or fadein music if none is going. However, I must have goofed somewhere with the music off part as once the music is switched off with this button, it won't then come back on again, yet conversely it works - if the music was already off via the first button in the intro, you can switch it on with this button and a second press will stop it again.
I am guessing that the flag done_it = 1 isnt resetting after the stopAllSounds
but I can't see why or what else I might have done.
Can anyone help?? Please!! Look for the obvious- I'm new at this and there are already many hours work and working thru tutorials to get this far!!!

Problem With Music On/off Button
Hi,

I created a movie with background loops/sound.
I have an on/off button for it.

In my scene, on the last frame I inserted this action script gotoAndPlay(115);

My problem is with the sound button. The button works fine when I press stop. But when it goes back to the 115 frame the music starts playing again.

How do I stop the music on the button for good?

Thanks for your help!!

Music On/off Button That Stays Off
Hi,

I've got a question that I thought would be easy to achieve but I can't manage to do it.

I have a flash site that has five different 'sections' defined by labels in the timeline ('about', 'contact', 'products' etc)

Every time you go to a new section I would like a 5 sec bit of music play. So far this is simple enough as I can just bring the music into the first frame of each section.

However I also want the option that if you don't want to hear the music you can hit an 'off' button. Then if you move to a different section the music will stay off unless you decide to hit an 'on' button.

I could see this working with an if statement however I'm not exactly sure how to proceed so any help would be appreciated,

thanks,

Tim
