[RESOLVED] Unmute - Button that dissapears on click

[JGomez3d]

Hi all, I am very very new to action script, most of the flash I use is for banner animation etc.

I am doing a video that I need to start playing automatically, but it has to start playing muted.

For this part I am using the following code

vid.playPauseButton = playpauseVid;

vid.volume = 0;
vid._uiMgr._isMuted = true;
vid.muteButton = mute;

vid is my video instance name.

This works great so far. But now the client wants to ad a big button over the video that says PLAY WITH SOUND. And that button has to serve the same function as the unmute button but it has to disappear once it is clicked.

Is there a simple way to do this?


Thanks so much

I tried using this

cover.onPress = function(){ this._visible=false}

But that only makes a button that disappears when I click it, how do I make that button unmute my video or how do I link it to this

vid.volume = 0;
vid._uiMgr._isMuted = true;
vid.muteButton = mute;

--------------------------------------------------------------

Ok I tried to add that disappear code to my already functioning mute button, what is happening is that it is applying the this._visible=false before it unmutes. So the button disappears before it has a chance to unmute the audio

Got it working.

cover.onPress = function(){
    this._visible = false;
    vid.volume = 100;
};



vid.playPauseButton = playpauseVid;
vid.volume = 0;
vid._uiMgr._isMuted = true;
vid.muteButton = mute;
