Please help turn all sounds off! [FILE ATTACHED]

[liske]

In this movie there is a mute button in the upper right hand corner of the user interface. This button I want to turn ALL sounds off. in the first fram of the movie there is:

globalvolume = new Sound();

This seems to turn some sounds off but not all. Please help! It has to be able to turn streaming sounds and event sounds off, and i cannot use stopAllSounds. The sound button is the button on the left in the top right corner of movie attached to this Post.

A.S. attached to "off" button:

on (release) {
if (_root.globalvolume.getVolume()>0) {
_root.globalvolume.setVolume(0);
setProperty(_level4.mute, _visible, true);
// mutes all sound
play();
// switch to mute frame
} else {
_root.globalvolume.setVolume(100);
// unmutes all sound
play();
// switch to unmute frame
}
}

A.S. attached to "on" button:

on (release) {
if (_root.globalvolume.getVolume()>0) {
_root.globalvolume.setVolume(0);
// mutes all sound
play();
// switch to mute frame
} else {
_root.globalvolume.setVolume(100);
setProperty(_level4.mute, _visible, false);
setProperty(_level8.mute, _visible, true);
// unmutes all sound
play();
// switch to unmute frame
}
}

Does no one have any leads?

Have you tried posting your question over in the Sounds and Music forum?
This sounds like something right up their alley.

What are these level 4 & level 8 bits? Sounds on those levels?

What sounds aren't stopped?

[liske]

Thanks for the responses.

I have movies on level 4 and level 8 as well, but the reference to them in the sound button is just to make a clip invisible or visible [it is a closed caption solution].

No sounds are stopped right now except for the streaming narration on level4. But I need all these button event sounds stopped as well.

They have to be soundObjects also and not event sounds added on the buttons themselves.

Something like on your first frame...

_root.my_over = new Sound();
_root.my_over.attachSound("over.mp3");
// linkage has to be set in the Library

Then on rollOver events on your buttons...

on (rollOver) {
_root.my_over.start();
}

Muting one soundObject will mute all of them, even on other levels.
