play mp3 from midle of song

[trionik]

The new mx capabilities of loading external mp3 file is great but i want to know if there is a way to play a song from midle of the file ....

What i want is to have the possibility of draging a pointer that indicate the status of where the song is at. But i haven't find out a way to play the song from the midle of it.


Is this possible???

[trionik]

just find out...

Thanx anyway!!!

hi trionik,

could you share your solution/finding? I have the same issue, i want to use a button that pauses a embeded qt-movie and a mp3sound at the same time.

thx in advanced

[trionik]

I don't think you can control video...

[vucjak]

for example if you have
mp3 sample 60 sec long
try this code,..

s = new Sound(_root);
s.attachSound("sound");
s.start(30, 9999);



so the sound will start in the middle.

Remark you cannot do so if your sound is stream!!

[Ngezi]

So could you share your solution ?
would be great to have a stream start with an offset.

Thx

[trikenit]

yea, streaming must = false if you choose to start a specific time in the audio.

[trionik]

There is no solution ... Or at least not yet...

Just don't stream the song!

[vucjak]

The Man asked how to play song from a middle,..
I put an answer, and I try it,.. it works just fine,
if you have 8 sec long song or sound semple if you put it to play with 4 sec offset you`ll get start at middle.

oh sorry,..
I forgot about steaming..

Wait a min.!!!!
maybe you can put your sound in seperate *.swf, and there
put code that I gave you,
and try streaming that *.swf, once it is streamed, give him an action just to go to frame where is code for playing from the middle...
That could work...

--Question: How do you pause an mp3? See my question below.--

Vucjak-

Thanks for the code:

s = new Sound(_root);
s.attachSound("sound");
s.start(30, 9999);

This works perfectly well for my dynamic mp3. Here's my code:

file = "track01.mp3";
mySound = new Sound();
mySound.loadSound(file);
--
Then I place your
s.start(30, 9999);
on a button.

All is well. However, can you tell me what those parameters (30,9999) mean? I figgered the 30 means the time to begin playing. What is the 9999? Can I place those numbers in a variable, then call it again?

The reason why I ask, is because I am trying to get the mp3 player to pause, then unpause where it left off. I know this is possible because I saw a MM guy do this in person.

Any direction would be fantastic. Thanks.
