Multiple swf's previewing mp3

[jolleboy]

Hello everyone!

(this is my first post here )

I am developing a flash preview in Flash 10. Publish settings: Flash Player 8, Actionscript 1.

I call the file preview.swf and it takes FlashVars in a for-each loop in php to get the correct ID of the mp3.

It works perfectly fine to play an mp3 and stop it and then play again. The two problems I run into is:
1. When/if I play an swf the mp3 starts playing and the stop button becomes visible. If I wait until the sound has completetd the swf transforms back to the play button but now I cannot play that specific sound again!
2. I need to stop/reset every other swf preview when I play one of the swf's. This is because I don't want the user to have to first click stop on the currently playing swf before he can listen to ONLY the one he presses play on.

Here is the code:
AS frame:
onClipEvent (load)
{
//var songId = 100;
myMusic = new Sound();
myMusic.loadSound(_root.songId+".mp3");
_root.loadBar._xscale = 0;
myMusic.onLoad = function ()
{
myMusic.start();
_root.playing = 1;
_root.percentLoadedTextt._visible = 0;
gotoAndStop(1);
};
myMusic.onSoundComplete = function ()
{
_root.playing = 0;
_root.paused = 1;
_root.loadMovie("preview.swf", 0);
};
if (_root.playing != 1)
{
_root.playing = 1;
_root.paused = 0;
if (_root.mySoundPosition == nul)
{
_root.mySoundPosition = 0;
} // end if
_root.myMusicMc.myMusic.start(_root.mySoundPositio n, 0);
gotoAndStop(1);
} // end if
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{
mySoundBytesTotal = myMusic.getBytesTotal();
mySoundBytesLoaded = myMusic.getBytesLoaded();
mySoundLoading = Math.round(mySoundBytesLoaded / mySoundBytesTotal * 100);
if (mySoundLoading != null)
{
_root.percentLoadedText = mySoundLoading + "";
} // end if
_root.loadBar._xscale = mySoundLoading;
_root.myMusicDurationText = myMusic.duration / 1000;
_root.myMusicPositionText = myMusic.position / 1000;
if (_root.playing == 1)
{
_root.paused = 0;
_root.playButton._visible = 0;
_root.pauseButton._visible = 1;
} // end if
if (_root.paused == 1)
{
_root.playing = 0;
_root.playButton._visible = 1;
_root.pauseButton._visible = 0;
gotoAndStop(1);
} // end if
}

Play button:
on (press)
{
_root.mySoundPosition = _root.myMusicMc.myMusic.position / 1000;
_root.paused = 1;
_root.playing = 0;
_root.playing = 0;
_root.playButton._visible = 1;
_root.pauseButton._visible = 0;
gotoAndStop(1);

gotoAndStop(2);
}

Stop button:
on (press)
{
_root.myMusicMc.myMusic.stop();
_root.mySoundPosition = _root.myMusicMc.myMusic.position / 1000;
_root.paused = 1;
_root.playing = 0;
_root.playing = 0;
_root.playButton._visible = 1;
_root.pauseButton._visible = 0;
gotoAndStop(1);
}

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!

Kindest regards Joel

Let me get this straight. You are trying to play a specific song on a specific movie, correct?

You are publishing this in flash 8. This is your AS1 code.

onClipEvent (load) {
    //var songId = 100;
    myMusic = new Sound();
    myMusic.loadSound(_root.songId + ".mp3");
    _root.loadBar._xscale = 0;
    myMusic.onLoad = function()
    {
        myMusic.start();
        _root.playing = 1;
        _root.percentLoadedTextt._visible = 0;
        gotoAndStop(1);
    };
    myMusic.onSoundComplete = function()
    {
        _root.playing = 0;
        _root.paused = 1;
        _root.loadMovie("preview.swf", 0);
    };
    if (_root.playing != 1)
    {
        _root.playing = 1;
        _root.paused = 0;
        if (_root.mySoundPosition == nul)
        {
            _root.mySoundPosition = 0;
        }
        // end if 
    }
    _root.myMusicMc.myMusic.start(_root.mySoundPosition,0);
    gotoAndStop(1);
}// end if
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    mySoundBytesTotal = myMusic.getBytesTotal();
    mySoundBytesLoaded = myMusic.getBytesLoaded();
    mySoundLoading = Math.round(mySoundBytesLoaded / mySoundBytesTotal * 100);
    if (mySoundLoading != null)
    {
        _root.percentLoadedText = mySoundLoading + "";
    }
    // end if 
    _root.loadBar._xscale = mySoundLoading;
    _root.myMusicDurationText = myMusic.duration / 1000;
    _root.myMusicPositionText = myMusic.position / 1000;
    if (_root.playing == 1)
    {
        _root.paused = 0;
        _root.playButton._visible = 0;
        _root.pauseButton._visible = 1;
    }
    // end if 
    if (_root.paused == 1)
    {
        _root.playing = 0;
        _root.playButton._visible = 1;
        _root.pauseButton._visible = 0;
        gotoAndStop(1);
    }
    // end if 
}

//Play button:
on (press) {
    _root.mySoundPosition = _root.myMusicMc.myMusic.position / 1000;
    _root.paused = 1;
    _root.playing = 0;
    _root.playing = 0;
    _root.playButton._visible = 1;
    _root.pauseButton._visible = 0;
    gotoAndStop(1);

    gotoAndStop(2);
}

//Stop button:
on (press) {
    _root.myMusicMc.myMusic.stop();
    _root.mySoundPosition = _root.myMusicMc.myMusic.position / 1000;
    _root.paused = 1;
    _root.playing = 0;
    _root.playing = 0;
    _root.playButton._visible = 1;
    _root.pauseButton._visible = 0;
    gotoAndStop(1);
}

Now, do I have all the facts cleared up?

i use 1 swf file for all mp3 previews; "preview.swf" and not one for each mp3. preview.swf takes in the variable "songId".

everything else is correct
