Flash :: Load Sound

How Do I Load External Sound Into A Movieclip Vs. A Sound Object?
I have a sound player movie clip that is designed to play the sound loaded into the parent movie clip. In particular, it uses "_parent.gotoAndPlay(targetFrame);" to start playing the sound. And it works well for statically loaded sounds.

However, how can I use this sound player movie clip with dynamically loaded sounds? The player requires a sound to be loaded into the parent movie clip, but the only way I know of loading an external sound is instantiating a new Sound() object and then using .loadSound(...). But loadSound doesn't load the sound into a movie clip.

So, how do I load an external sound into a movie clip versus a Sound object?

Thanks!

Random Sound Load And Start Is Speeding Up The Sound. Any Help?
Hello,

My first post here at Kirupa. I thought I'd give it a try.
I'm trying to load sound dynamically into a clip and then play it randomly. The AS I came up with works great if the sound is embedded and I use the .attachSound() method instead of loadSound(). Now, when I load it dynamically and use the code below, the sound plays very fast and at a higher pitch.

I'm new to AS. Any help or insight into the issue would be much appreciated!

Thanks everyone!

ActionScript Code:
var crows = new Sound(this); crows.loadSound("Raven.mp3", false); crows.setVolume(100);rNum = function(){ var i = 0; var randNum = Math.round(Math.random()*500); if (i>=randNum) { crows.start(0, 1); }};randSound = setInterval(rNum, 100);

Load New Sound Into Existing Sound Object
I have an extremely simple AS3 mp3 player that I'm trying to create but the problem I'm running into is that I can't seem to load a new song into my sound object when I switch tracks. Here's the basic code I'm using:

Code:
var sound:Sound = new Sound();
var sControl:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var isPlaying:Boolean = false;

function triggerAudio(id:Number, path:String, type:String):void {
if(isPlaying){
sControl.stop();
sound.close();
isPlaying = false;
} else {
sound.load(new URLRequest(path));
sControl = sound.play();
sControl.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, completeHandler);
isPlaying = true;
}
}
Right now, playing an initial song works
Stopping a song works
But loading a new song over top of a previously loaded song doesn't.

I'm brand new to AS3, what am I missing?

Sound Object Attach Sound Or Load
Hi

I am wanting two sounds in my FLA one for movie clip buttons and one for background music.

In the past I have created a sound object and just loaded the file from a location on the server, but I've just seen an aletrnative method thats works very much in the same way but you import the sound files into the library and then export for action script and then attach them to the sound object.

Which is the best method to use? If I bring them into the library do they contribute the FLA size? and if they do is this worse than just loading them?

What are the pros and cons of each method? and which is best to use?

Thanks

Load Sound
Hi everyone.

Having a spot of bother with loading a sound and js integration...

I have a flash file with two frames (nothing on them but an image that does notihng - moved image in frame 2 so I can see that something has happened).

Action script in frame 1:

stop();

Action script in frame 2:

stop();
var my_sound:Sound = new Sound();
my_sound.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success == true)
{
my_sound.start();
}
};

my_sound.loadSound(audio, false);
my_sound.onSoundComplete=function () { gotoAndStop(1); }

and my javascript to handle this....

function f_playFile(fstring)
{
player=document.getElementById('medplayer');
player.SetVariable("audio",fstring);
player.GotoFrame(2);
}

the flash file is placed in teh page with...

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/soundfiles/sample.swf" id="medplayer" width="60" height="60">
<param name="movie" value="/soundfiles/sample.swf" />
</object>

and there a several links all of the form...

Trying To Load My Sound
Hi Everyone

I feel as dumb as a box-of-hammers but I just can't seem to get my sound file to play. I hope you can help me. I've been to http://www.aspirin99.com/tutorials/sound/ and also to http://kennybellew.com/tutorial/ and they are excellent but there must be something else I'm doing wrong.

Here's my set up:

I have a main Flash website (lets call it jim.fla) and I code everything with ActionScript in the first frame (within a layer called "actions") and in it I do the following:

// MovieClipLoader - Used to Load MainImage.
var MCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

// MovieClip - Main Body Image - Size 400 x 360
this.createEmptyMovieClip("MainImage",0);
MainImage._x = 240;
MainImage._y = 85;

I use the above mainly for loading images into the main section of my Flash website. Simple stuff and it works great. Now then, I also use the above to load external swf files which also works great except when the external swf file has a sound file in it.

To load the external swf file the jim.fla code does this:

MCL.loadClip("h t t p://my-url.com/bob.swf",MainImage);

I use the loadClip statement so that I can use the built-in functions to display the load progress and that works great. Also, the new swf file loaded does play nicely but without any sound.

The mp3 sound file is part of bob.swf file. It's linkage identifier is "VowsSong". The source code within for bob.fla (within a layer called "wedding") for the sound logic looks like this.

WeddingSong = new Sound();
WeddingSong.attachSound("VowsSong");
WeddingSong.start();

My guess is that I do not have the object path correctly coded for the ".start()" statement but I'm not sure what to code there. I've tried the following:

_root.WeddingSong.start();

_root.MainImage.WeddingSong.start();

_root.MCL.WeddingSong.start();

None of the above statements work. Does anyone have any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreicated.

Thank You!

Load Sound
Hi

I have a problem in loading some sound file in my flash intro

the intro is a song that keeps on playing and while lyrics of the song appears simultaneously with the song,

the problem is when i play the intro online ,"even though i used a preloader and used the stopAllSounds(); function on the preloader scene/frame ",

the sound loads before the lyrics so it ends up with a very big mess in the synchronization between the lyrics and the song,

does any one have any suggestion?

Load Sound
i've a mc which has only one frame. i load a mp3(eg,bird sound) which has only a few second externally using below code
mySound = new Sound();
mySound.loadSound("bird.mp3",true);
mysound.start();

now, how can i do, so that the sound will repeat again after sometimes(can be randomly), not pressing any button, just like bird chirping randomly.

And also, how can i load another sound (eg, insect sound) and want it to play only after few second,because i don't want all sounds play at the same time. This sound can also repeating like above case.

notice that all sound must be loaded externally.

Thanks.

Sound Load Time
I created a button toggle that starts and stops an audio clip. The load time for the sound takes too long. Is there a way I can get the audio to load quickly...streaming? I figured the load time is taking longer because the MP3 clip is embedded. Is there some way to fix this? For example, I have created a page where a user can listen to audio clips and I used M3U files, which downloads immediately and starts playing the actual MP3 file, but that is with HTML and not Flash. Is there something similar I can do within Flash?

Here is the code for the button toggle to play the audio clip in Flash:
bgSound = new Sound(this);
bgSound.attachSound("sound1");
bgSound.start(0, 99);
stopB._visible=false;
stopB.onRelease = function() {
bgSound.start(0, 99);
playB._visible=true;
stopB._visible=false;
};
playB.onRelease = function() {
bgSound.stop();
playB._visible=false;
stopB._visible=true;
};
stop();

s.setVolume(100);
s.start( 0 , 50000 );

this is located on the first frame of a movie which is on the 25 frame of the main timeline.

Unless I use "load of first frame' it will not load. I need it to work with my preloader which is on frames 1, 2

I tried using a loadSound ("mysound") , on frame 3 but to no avail. It still does not play.

Sound Load Progress

Here's my current code, and I want to keep this as simple as I can....

ActionScript Code:
track = new Sound();
track.loadSound("music/track1.mp3", true);
percent = (track.getBytesLoaded() / track.getBytesTotal()) * 100;
setProperty(loadBar, _xscale, percent);
track.onLoad = function() {
_root.info = "Song has loaded";
};
track.onSoundComplete = function() {
_root.info = "Song complete";
};

Like I said, the song loads and will play, but I can't get the bar to show the load progress.
Also, I want to get just a text field that displays the elapsed and total time of the song.
Any help would be great!
