Question

Adding sound to a movie with AS

Would you help me with adding a simple sound to a movie with AS?  I'd prefer this, since I already have simple "Roll On", and "Roll Out" script in place.

I have imported the sound file. In Properties, under Label, I have named it "tire_squeal". (Also, created a layer within the movie, and dragged the file onto the stage - all done.)  Is this necessary when using Actionscript, or not?

The sound file loaded into my Library is named, "tire_screech.wav"

I want the sound to load "stopped", then play OnRollOver, and quit OnRollOut. (See previous AS code in string.)

Thx.

remove your sound from everywhere but the library.  right click your library sound, click linkage, tick export for actionscript and assign a linkage id (eg, screechID) and click ok.

in your actions panel add:

var screech:Sound=new Sound(this);

screech.attachSound("screechID");

and in your rollover, add:

screech.start();

and in your rollout, add:

screech.stop();

Ah yes, the Linkage thing, that's what I was forgetting. I'll give it a try....

Thank you, this is working. Prior to trying in AS, I had a Loop added to the audio play, but lost it now in AS. What would I add to the "OnRollOver" code to make it loop?
