Help - Mute Button Does Not Stop All Sounds. Why?
Hi.

I create a mute button with the intent of stopping all sounds. When I press it, it mutes the current sounds but not all subsuquent sounds. Question. Why?

My intentions are simple. CLick themute button and all sounds present and future mutes. I press it again it should unmute.

Anyone advice and feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you.

How To Stop Button Sounds Overlapping? PLEASE HELP :(
I have 4 buttons playing music loops. The sound clips have been dragged into the down frames of the buttons, no actionscript.

The problem I have is that if one sound is triggered on one button, then another button is clicked the sounds overlap. What I'd like is for the second button to simply cut off the sound of the first.

I've been googling all this morning, trying to work this out, with little luck. I'm aware this can be done using sound object, but tbh I am a real Actionscript n00b and most of the script I'm finding on websites is out of context and I get error messages when I use it and export my movie.

The only code I currently have attached to this button is:

on (press)
{
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

I'm using Flash MX 2004, V7.

If anyone can offer help here, I'd really appreciate it. I'm pretty frustrated!

Stop Sounds Across Multiple Scenes Using One Button
Hi all,

I have a main file with multiple scenes, each of these scenes loads an external swf which has a voice over in it.

Now, each scene has the same sound control button, but what I want to happen is that no matter which scene the button is pressed, it will stop the current sound and when the movie proceeds to the next scene the loaded swf voice over will not play.

Same goes for restarting the sound when the button is pressed again.

Any help would really be appreciated.

Stop All Sounds And Start Another Sound By Clicking A Button
I am working with Flash 5 and I have a problem like this:

I have several buttons in one page, when clicking each button you get a sound (long), I set the sound on the down phase of the button and set it to "start".
The problem is that when I click one button, and then immediately another button, I hear the sounds of both buttons together.

How can I make it, so that when clicking on the button, the sound that is playing will stop, and the new sounds will start.

Thanks you very much, Efrat.

Play Sounds After Stop All Sounds
Dear all,

I have a question which I hope someone can answer: my flash animation starts immediately when a visitor comes to the page. I have a stop button which stops the animation and the sound which comes with it (speaker voice). A play button plays the animation after the stop button was pressed. But the play button only plays the animation, not the speaker voice. How do I do this? I want the sound to start were it was stopped, just like the animation.

I'm using Flash mx 2004, version 7.2

Thanks in advance for your replies

How Do I Disable All Sounds Including Background Music And Button Rollover Sounds?
Hey, you don't know how long I've been on this forum last night and no one was able to help me with this. I have no clue how to do this. Basically what I want to do is create a site with a bunch of buttons with a Over State Sounds and a Down State Sounds. I have done so already with the file I have been working on at home. Now, I also have background music playing on my flash site. I already have a button that says, turn off music which is using the stop all sounds command. But now, I want a button that disables all the sounds on the whole entire site including background music and button over and down state sounds. I have tried the stop all sounds action but that DOES NOT WORK. Another action that I tired was the globalsound action where it puts the volume to 0, but all that does is stop the background music. It doesn't kill the button over and down state sounds. So what action script would I need in this case? I have been looking for this action scrpt for hours on end and havn't had any luck with anything.

Please help.

Thank You.

Stop All Sounds *&#%
okay,
I have two flash files in two seperate frames. One plays a music file, and has an OFF switch. I have a narration file in a seperate main content frame, and if I go to shut the music off, it is also shutting off my narration, which I do not want it to do. Is there a way to target a specific sound to "stop all sounds", but not effect my narration?

Stop All Sounds?
It's always bugged me - how do you STOP all sounds? Say I have a music loop in the background, and it loops forever untill you go to the next scene. I want the music loop (and any other sounds playing at that moment) to stop completely as the next scene comes up.

Thanks

[MX] Sounds All Stop
When I try to stop a sound with actionScript, instead of stopping just the one sound, it stops all of my noises. I am publishing in flash 6. Actionscript 2.0.

Here is an example of my code:

Code:
stop();

//upon entering the scene, this will start the shower.
if(showerOn == 1 && waterOn == 1){
showerWater.gotoAndPlay(6);
shower.start(0, 5000);
waterMask._x = 53;
waterMask._y = 85;
}

//upon entering the scene, this turns on the sink
if((sinkOn == 1) && (waterOn == 1)){
sink.water._visible = true
waterNoise.start();
}else if(!((sinkOn == 1) && (waterOn == 1))){
sink.water._visible = false
}

//this turns the shower on and off if a button is pressed
tubWater.onPress = function(){
if(showerOn == 0 && waterOn == 1){
infoText = "You turn on the shower.";
showerWater.gotoAndPlay(2);
shower.start(0, 5000);
waterMask._x = 53;
waterMask._y = 85;
showerOn = 1;
}else if(showerOn == 1 && waterOn == 1){
infoText = "You turn off the shower.";
shower.stop();
if(sinkOn == 1){
waterNoise.start(0, 5000);
}
showerWater.gotoAndPlay(21);
waterMask._x = 0;
showerOn = 0;
}else if(waterOn == 0){
infoText = "you turn the knobs but nothing comes out.";
}
};

//this turns the sink on/off if a button is pressed
sinkHit.onPress = function(){
if((sinkOn == 0) && (waterOn == 1)){
infoText = "You turn the sink on.";
_global.sinkOn = 1;
sink.water._visible = true
waterNoise.start(0, 5000);
} else if((sinkOn == 1) && (waterOn == 1)){
infoText = "You turn the sink off.";
sink.water._visible = false
waterNoise.stop();
_global.sinkOn = 0;
if(showerOn == 1){
shower.start(0, 5000);
}
} else if(waterOn == 0){
infoText = "You turn the knobs but no water comes out.";
}
};

The problem is, when one sound stops, ALL of the sounds in the movie stop.

Stop All Sounds
I have a complex situation..
I 'm working in a flash website and I used a background music that runs while the flash file is playing, I used action script codes to run this music. Also, I used some simple sounds that plays when the user move his mouse over a button or some items, but I imported these sounds to its frames directly and I didn't use action script to run it.
The problem is that I want to make a "MUTE" button to stop all sounds, but the background music only stopped because it was runned through Action Script, other buttons will produce the same sounds when moving the mouse over them!!
Does anybody have an action script code to mute all sounds even if they were imported to frames directly??
Waiting replies...

Stop All Sounds
after applying my_movie_clip.stop(); it stops the animation, but not the sound that is playing "inside" the movieclip.

the sound is an mp3 file that I set up to work as an event based style.

How do i stop the sound ?

Stop All Sounds Except
Is there a way to use the stopallsounds command with an exception? I want to stop all narrations (in a presentation) when a button is clicked but keep the background music going. So i want to stopallsounds except the background sound. any ideas?

Stop ALL Sounds
does anyone know how to get rid of all sounds in a flash movie? I mean all sounds, including button sounds. I know the stopallsounds script only works on currently playing audio, so it doesn't work for say rollover sounds which aren't constantly playing. Thanks for any help....

Making A Stop Button, Or Telling A Button To Stop A Streaming Video
Hello,

I've searched the forums and tried to find an answer to this question, but most of the posts go unanswered or are way beyond my understanding.

I'm using a form based application in Flash professional 8.

I have a .flv video of a movie trailer that I created from Quicktime. I intend to stream this video.

I also have a button called "Trailer". When I click on the "Trailer" button, I see the .flv video I created along with the play/pause control skin that I added in the import video wizard. I press the play/pause button, and the movie plays.

This is as I had expected it to be.

Now, when I want to go to something different, for example clicking a "Photos" button that displays a slideshow, the video continues to play.

Is there a way I can tell the "Photos" button to stop the streaming video?

I've searched the forums, and found a few answers, but I don't really understand them. I added them to the script of the "Photos" button anyways to see if they did anything, and every time the video still kept playing.

Here's what I've tried so far:
------------------------------------------
button.onPress = function (){
player_mc.clearVideo();
}

Where player_mc is the instance name.
-------------------------------------------
Adding a stop component, but this isn't really what I want. I'd like the "Photos" button to stop the movie without the user having to hit a separate stop button.
-------------------------------------------
.stop() and ._visible=false;

I don't really understand this.
-------------------------------------------
removeMovieClip("component_mc");
-------------------------------------------
instance.stop()

From what I understand this is only for adding to a keyframe to stop a movie that's looping, and not for what I would like to do. Is that correct?
-------------------------------------------

I would greatly appreciate any help, not only just for me, but for any other newbie who may run into this problem.

Thanks!

Stop Sounds Before They Start
Is there away to stop sounds being played without them actually currently playing - I've got a game with staggered sfx's which play at different times I wanted a mute button which user can press and mutes sounds currently playing a subsequently - is it possible without writing a handler for every sfx and a load of if statements?

because stopAllSounds() and Sound.stop("current tune") only stop current tune/sfx playing

cheers in advance

Stop All Sounds? No Function
hi,

i want to stop all my sound.

i dont know what i am makeing wrong...

at the front timeline (scene one) i maked these:

effekt = new Sound();
effekt.attachSound("sound02");
effekt.setVolume(100);
effekt.setPan(0);

but the sounds are normal in an other movieclip, so have i write something like this? :

_root.stopsound_mc.effekt = new Sound();
_root.stopsound_mc.effekt.attachSound("sound02");

however the "stopallsounds" is a movieclip with a button in it, so should i say

stopAllSounds();

or better this:
_root.effekt.stop();

please help!!!

Stop Sounds In Buttons
How to make a sound that its in a button in the "over" stop when in another button another "over" sound its played

Stop Already Loaded Sounds?
Hi there, I have a tricky question in regard to using the sound object for loading mp3's dynamically. What I have is a movie which uses lots of different mp3's. The mp3's are loaded via mouse events in runtime using loadSound(). I have read that mp3's are cached when there loaded, so I dont want flash to keep reloading the sounds if they have been already loaded previously from an earlier mouse event. Have I lost you yet?

Anyway I was thinking that I could create a sound object for the first the time a particular sound is loaded and store that sound object in an array for later use, ie when that sound needs to be used again call that object.

Does that sound right? Does anyone have any examples or better ways of doing this....anything appreciated

Stop Sound. But PLEASE NOT ALL Sounds ?
I've got one html-frame with a few buttons in a movie with a mouseover sound.
I putted a -stop all sounds- because when I mouseover a button and then go to the other button I want the first button sound to stop. Works great.

Now the problem.
At the same time in another html-frame there's a movie with sound playing BUT when I go over one of the buttons in the movie of the other html-frame the sound of the movie stops as well.

What do I need to use insteat of -stop all sounds-?

THANKS!!!

Stop All Sounds Function?
I have a flash file in which I have a button that opens a pop up. The pop up has it's own audio.

What I wanted to know is, how would I code the button to not only open this HTML pop up page, but also stop all sounds in the flash at the same time?

Stop All Sounds Not Stopping
hey there; quick question.

have 2 movies in flash 8 connected by a button. On the button i've placed a stop all sounds to kill the vo so as not to interfere with the next movie's vo- done this hundreds of times, no problem, until today, (movies are both loaded to same level so one kills out the other).

Yes, when button is pressed it does kill the VO, but a little ways on, i have a SFX and this SFX keeps playing into the next movie where i don't want it too. (even when i put a stop all sounds on the first frame of the second movie! I can't make the damn thing shut up!

So does Stop all sounds really stop all sounds OR JUST THE ONES PLAYING AT THAT MOMENT the button is pushed and said script activated?

any help?
