simple code but error why?

[ms969]

I have a simple code:
myMusic = new Sound(myMusicMc);
myMusic.loadSound("distortion.mp3");

There is a button, on the button there is this event:
on (press) {
myMusic.play();
}

I have created a movieclip myMusicMc
but when i test it I get the following error:

Error opening URL "file:///C|/DOCUME%7E1/SADEKA%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/distortion.mp3"

why

Are you positive the song is in the same file as your .fla?

[McUsher]

I am not sure, either your mp3 is not in the same directory as the swf, that is beeing generated or flash can't resolve the path correctly.
Try saving the fla to d:\test\myFla.fla or whatever, copy the mp3 there and try again.

@ostil: In the same Fla??? why's that?

[corky§urprise]

The error means it cannot find the file. That url means that i can assume you have not saved the file. Save the file in the same folder, and the problem will go.

McUsher,

First of all its Osteel, Ostil is my brother

Well it doesnt really matter if you say .fla or swf since both files will be in the same folder. But I suppose I should have said swf instead to avoid confusion

Sorry

[McUsher]

Oh sorry, i am mixing you two up all the time

I normally don't publish in same dir as the fla, but that doesn't matter.
I just thought (as you said in the same _file_ as the fla) that you were
thinking of linkage.. i bet you wanted to say _folder_ instead

[Osteel]

sorry, double post *

[Osteel]

Haha ok ok

*Ahem*

FOLDER!

ps , dont worry everyone else mixes us up as well

[McUsher]

tbh it was a mix-up on purpose, as u mixed up File 'n Folder..

Thanks Guys:

I have saved the sound "distortion.mp3" file in the same directory as soun-tyro.fla. Now I get no "file URL error" however now the sound does not play. Sound card is not on mute and sound volume is on.

Hey,

Just noticed something. Try moving the code to your main timeline ...

code:

---

myMusic = new Sound(myMusicMc);

myMusic.loadSound("distortion.mp3");



myButton.onRelease = function(){

myMusic.play();

}

---

Try that
