Audio with navigation buttons

Hi,
I would like to record audio and create a play/pause button
so that the user can determine when the audio starts and have the
option to pause the audio.
I would be extremely grateful if I could be guided in the
right direction!
Thanks

ms540,
I'm assuming you want to do this for audio associated with an
object on a slide rather than the slide's audio. If so, look at
this topic for a discussion of how to use a vcr control that lets
the user play, pause, advance, and rewind.

You can use Captivate to package the audio into an animation.
However, based on a suggestion by Rick, I found it easier to
use Hoo Technologies MP3ToSWF converter ($50 USD as I recall) to
create animations from .wav files. Works well except that in the
Captivate movie the audio playbar on the animation is twice as long
as the audio's actual content -- an issue I'm still chasing.

  • Export a pdf to a swf file with navigation buttons???

    I have CS4 and I've tried to export a couple indesign files using the swf export feature, but it the navigation of the file is very weak and not very intuitive, and when you zoom in to any of the text the text goes fuzzy.
    I would like to just convert a PDF to SWF file with navigation buttons, page controls, zoom in/out, single or two page view options, so that my end user can view it with the free flash player, but I don't have time to build the file in Flash and I don't want to use an online service that comes with a per month or per publication fee.
    Any suggestions??

    I've looked at that, but most of the pdf's that I need to convert are more than 10 pages.  I want a program I can download, install and use without a per use cost, or per publication cost.
    I'm looking more for a plug-in for either Acrobat, or Indesign or stand alone program that would convert them without adding copyrights, or ads to the file.

  • Audio with Selected Buttons?

    Is it possible to assign audio to a button, so that when the user selects a button in the menu it plays a specific sound?
    Not much about this in the manual...
    Thanks!
    -Eric

    Nope not in the Flash/Director way of things.
    You could fake it by jumping to another menu or using buttons over video, but no real instant feedback on audio sounds on buttons pressed

  • Create slideshow with navigation buttons

    I am trying to create a type of slideshow for my website using Catalyst. It's a little different, but for the most part like the scrolling advertisment slides on hulu.com. I'm trying to make the image fade into a window, then, every 5-10 seconds transition to a different image. At the bottom I would like to be able to click buttons to go back and forth between slides (just like hulu's buttons).
    I've tried to create different states and animate them, like in this sutorial video: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashcatalyst/tutorials/animate/
    I also tried to search the forums.. I'm sure this was discussed before but I haven't been able to find anything. I'm sorry if this will duplicate threads.
    I'm attaching the working file. As you can see I'm just using colored vector boxes as placeholders. Once I figure out the transition stuff I will replace the boxes with photos.
    Thanks for any help you can provide. I'm really excited about Catalyst, seems like a dream come true for an artist/designer.. I just hope I can get the hang of it.
    Nate

    Hi,
    I think you're on the right track with the basic transitions. The easiest thing to do to make the transitions smoothly animate is to select one state transitions in the Timelines panel, like "ad1 > ad2", and click the "Smooth Transition" button. This will stretch out the default effects to .5 seconds in that transition. You can then tweak the timing if you like.
    (Unfortunately, in the current beta we don't yet have a quick way to smooth a bunch of transitions, so you have to do that for each transition for now.)
    Currently there isn't a way to set up a timer to automatically switch states every few seconds--this is something you'd have to set up in code. I'll note it as a feature request, though.
    Thanks,

  • Need Help with Navigation Buttons

    Hi,
    What I'm seeking should be straightforward for those of you
    who have mastered ActionScript. (I'm using Flash 8 Professional.)
    I have 84 photographs that progressively show one complete
    rotation of a photographed object (a model airplane). What I'm
    envisioning are a pair of buttons. When the "forward" button is
    pressed, the plane would rotate clockwise, and stop rotating when
    the button is released. Same for the "reverse" button, but the
    action would be counterclockwise. In that way, the viewer can
    control exactly what angle to look at.
    I assume I'd put each of the photographs on a Flash frame and
    use ActionScript on the buttons to make Flash go through the frames
    as described above.
    Please let me know what the AS code would be, or perhaps
    provide a link to someplace where it is explained.
    Thanks!
    Bill

    kglad,
    I (think) I followed your instructions. The airplane rotates
    fine when the forward button is pressed, but nothing happens when
    the backward button is pressed. I’ll describe exactly what I
    did, in case I did something wrong.
    1. I drew a small dot off stage, made it into a movieclip
    object, and gave it the name apMC.
    2. On the movieclip timeline, I created a keyframe for each
    photo and dragged the photos from the library onto the keyframes. I
    placed a stop() code on the first and last movieclip frames.
    3. On the main timeline, I created three layers:
    “Movieclip”: Onto the first frame of this layer
    I copied/pasted the code that you provided.
    “Button Labels.”
    “Buttons”: I created the forward and backward
    buttons, giving them the instance names you suggested.
    Any thoughts as to why the backward button doesn’t
    work? If you wish, I could send you the .fla file to examine. If
    so, let me know where to send it.
    Thanks!

  • Exporting audio with markers button is greyed out.... ANY HELP MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Hello
    so, background to the story. Now peak pro is defunkt on OSX I am trying to use Audition to create cdmasters. The idea being I will compile the album in audition, export wav files of each track including gaps and compile DDPi master in Sonoris DDP creator. Should be fine but quite a few limitations I've found already in audition.
    1)Main question is this. Exporting tracks. I have compiled and added all the markers in to a 30+ track cd. I've exported whole thing to a single mixdown that includes marker but the 'EXPORT AUDIO OF SELECTED RANGE MARKERS TO SEPERATE FILES IS GREYED OUT' even if i select everything....
    2)In multitrack mode, if you want to move one clip in the middle of the sequence, is there any way to select all the clips in all the following clips so that they all slip back together. I know you can zoom out and select everything but that is very boring especially when you have loads of tracks and if some are only a couple of second long soundbytes. In SAdie and Peak Pro it was very easy to set this function.
    3)Moving markers. if I am moving a number of tracks is there a way of selecting and moving the relevant markers as well ? At the moment it seems like I'd have to select all clips in the boring zoom out method and then move each marker individually? Surely not...
    2) & 3) are very annoying when you only want to move one clip by a few frames or seconds.
    Any ideas folks ? Like i say uestion 1 is most pressing!
    Thanks in advance

    thanks guys, all makes sense, really appreciate it.
    I will try the merging out. I was in a hurry to get a CDREF out so ended up just exporting the compiled album out as one wav from audition and adding PQ points in Sonoris. Not ideal especially as running order etc is bound to change. 
    I can't recomened Sonoris DDP creator enough, fantastic program and very reasnably priced. I have Soundblade LE as well but find it too clunky to bother learning, its one of the least intuitive audio programs I've ever come across.
    Maybe Audition and Sonoris should team up, if you could add PQ points into audition it could become the best OSX option for compiling cd masters.
    Did you have any thoughts on questions 2)&3)
    2)In multitrack mode, if you want to move one clip in the middle of the sequence, is there any way to select all the clips in all the following clips so that they all slip back together. I know you can zoom out and select everything but that is very boring especially when you have loads of tracks and if some are only a couple of second long soundbytes.

  • Last Navigation Button

    JDev 9.0.5.2 ADF UIX Struts
    I have an ADF UIX page with navigation buttons (first, next, previous, and last) that are bound through drag and drop. The last button works fine on development database server but not on the production database. It freezes on production so I am assuming that there is a difference between the 2 database servers. Any ideas of where to begin to look?

    I have deployed the application to my production Oracle App Server pointing to both the production and development database and I did the same on my development Oracle App Server. Both of the applications that point to the development database server work fine. The 2 applications that point to the production database server don't work.
    This is not an issue anymore. There was a problem with the EO and VO.

  • No audio with video, website navigation impaired, I can no longer recommend Firefox

    I maintain the video site shaleshockmedia.org. I can no longer recommend Firefox to viewers because of the severe problem I have been experiencing: No audio with video; navigation often does not work. Maybe this is purely a local problem. Please let me know if the site is fully functional or not when you go there. There is no problem with Chrome or Safari. My computer is a Macbook Pro 3,1 Intel Core 2 Duo. MacOs 10.6.8

    Note that there are a lot of popular extensions that can cause issues with videos not working apart from issues with the Flash plugin.
    In what way is the navigation not working properly?
    Can you give some examples?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    *disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • Default Strata navigation buttons used to have colors besides blue with Windows 2000.

    I recently moved from Windows 2000 to Windows 7 and noticed that the default Strata navigation buttons are now all blue. For example, with Windows 2000 the stop "X" was red and the "Forward" and "Back" arrow buttons were green. No biggie, but is there any way to get these colors with the default navigation buttons in Windows 7?
    Thanks!

    Hello and thank you for the reply!
    While I am waiting for the issue to start up again, I'd just like to cover some things you mentioned in your post. :)
    I only updated the bios because I was originally experiencing these issues. It was a method to hopefully resolve them, which did not work. I was very careful, and the process was a success. I updated to the most recent recommended driver for my motherboard
    from the manufacturers.
    As for Auslogics Boost Speed, it is not running on my computer, as it is a piece of software I only have used to clean junk files (cache/temp) for a very long time now with no issue. I have also tried updating all of my drivers with success, however that
    did not solve the issue either. I even rolled back my network card driver just in case with no luck.
    I have not thought of disabling my audio driver yet, being how it effects far more than just my audio when it happens. My mouse is jittery/laggy as well when no sound is playing. But other tests have shown that it may be a network issue. Next time it happens
    I'll temporary disable my network drivers to see if that causes the issue to clear up.
    I will be sure to mark answers which help appropriately. Thanks again! I should return with the information requested from Zigzag's wiki within 2 days of on-time, when this happens again. 

  • Help with Re-Linking Navigation Buttons

    I have Adobe Flash CS3 Pro.
    I have a navigation header flash file that came with my website template and I am having difficulty making sense of the actionscript. It has a logo section with effects, 5 main nav buttons that move, and two extra link buttons above the navigation bar. Let’s focus on just the Navigation buttons for now. Here is what I have gathered. I have multiple text buttons on one movieclip, and I have successfully edited the text for each button. If I look at the actionscript in the top layer of this movieclip I see:
    “gotoAndStop(parent._parent.num);”
    I also have a separate movieclip symbol (with effects) with 5 buttons layers listed in the actionscript with the following actionscript tied to each button from numbers 1 through 5:
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=1;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=2;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=3;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=4;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=5;
    On the top layer of these 5 buttons I have the following actionscript:
    stop();
    this["item"+_root.button].gotoAndPlay("s1");
    _root.link = _root.button;
    I also have a separate button symbol with the following actionscript:
    on (rollOver) {
                if (_root.link<>1) {
                            menu.item1.gotoAndPlay("s1");
    on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
                if (_root.link<>1) {
                            menu.item1.gotoAndPlay("s2");
    on (release) {
                if (_root.link<>1) {
                            _root.menu["item"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2");
                            _root.link = 1;
                            getURL("index.html");
    Now my website template came with 5 html pages that my flash navigation buttons correspond to: (index.html, index-1.html, index-2.html, index-3.html, index-4.html, index-5.html). My problem is that I have created new pages (index.html, about.html, featured.html, projects.html, contact.html). I would like each of the 5 buttons to correspond to these pages, not the existing standard “index-n.html” pages. 
    Also, this is probably not relevant, but each html page has something to this affect so I can see how they correspond to each button.
    <script type="text/javascript">
              var fo = new FlashObject("flash/menu_vf8.swf?button=2", "head", "100%", "144", "7", "");
              fo.addParam("quality", "high");
                        fo.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
                            fo.addParam("scale", "noscale");
              fo.write("head");
            </script>
    I guess my real question is: What actionscript do I need to update or remove for the nav button LINKS to work with my new html pages rather than the standard 5 index-n.html pages that it automatically wants to link to?
    When I try and add a “getURL” command to each of the 5 buttons and test preview the movie, the links work, but it messes up the effects of the movieclip. In other words, the buttons don’t move, they are motionless, however the links work. If I added this command to each button in some way, what actionscript would I need to remove so there weren’t any complications? I need some expert help here for it would be much appreciated. I am a novice with Flash script and its killing me that I can’t figure it out. I asked for help from the template support and all they came back with was the following message and it wasn’t helpful:
    You need to duplicate each button you are editing - it is very important.
    2) Update the scripting to look similar way:
    on (release) {
    if (_root.link<>num) {
    _parent["item"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2");
    _root.link = num;
    if (num == 1) {
    getURL("index.html");
    } else {
    getURL("index-"+Number(num-1)+".html");
    Update it to:
    on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.google.com");
    Also, I read through the following discussion, which was helpful to a degree, but it still didn’t answer my questions about getting the links to work.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3614092#3614092

    First of all, thank you for showing interest and helping out in my dilemma here. I wish I understood your meaning behind “on” because with my luck there is probably some hidden way of placing script on an object that I don’t understand or haven’t discovered yet.
    This is what I know:
    I have multiple text buttons on one movieclip entitled “textbutton1” (see previous picture), and I have successfully edited the text for each button and created two extra frames/buttons to make 7 total. If I look at the actionscript in the top layer of this movieclip I see:
    “gotoAndStop(parent._parent.num);”
    But there is no action on each individual frame (all 7 of them) on that layer.
    Like I mentioned before I have a separate movieclip symbol (entitled “menu effect”) with 7 button movieclip layers listed in the actionscript with the following actionscript on each layer.
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=1;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=2;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=3;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=4;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=5;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=6;
    onClipEvent (load) {
                num=7;
    On the top layer (layer 4 frame 25) of these 5 buttons I have the following actionscript:
    stop();
    this["item"+_root.button].gotoAndPlay("s1");
    _root.link = _root.button;
    I can upload another particular image of the movieclip/actionscript if it would be helpful. Let me know.

  • Help please with my navigation buttons

    Can anyone please help me with my vertical navigation buttons. I'm trying to set up my nav bar so that all the buttons have a background image (button.jpg) behind them at all times and the only thing that changes when touched or the mouse rolls over them is that the colour of the text changes, except when the sub buttons appear, because the name of some of the sub buttons are so long i have created another button image that is longer (button2.jpg), i only want this to appear on sub buttons otherwise the buttons will end up taking most of the pages space. I'm having great difficulties getting the sub buttons to appear with the correct image (button2.jpg) and am getting increasingly frustrated with it, can anyone please help!!!
    www.milesfunerals.com/index2.html

    index2.html is a broken link for sure. The main index page looks like it's working fine.
    A little styling critique if it's okay... Personally I'd have gone with a CSS or Javascript multi-level menu across the bottom of the header. Saves visitors from having to scroll all the way down the page to see every menu item. And I'd rethink the color of the "Miles & Daughters" in the header image. It kinda gets lost in the roses.
    If you have a link to the "broken" page please put it up so we can analyze it.

  • Trouble with Lumia 900 navigation button not worki...

    Hei guys,
    This afternoon, all of a sudden, without nothing happened, my 3 navigation buttons (back, start and search) on my nokia lumia 900 stopped working. I really can't understand what happened since 2 minutes before the buttons were working perfectly and then the sensibility of the button is completely zero.
    Tried to turn off the phone several times, but it didn't worked at all. Searched around the web but noone seems having the same problem. I found only one guy that posted a similar problem like mine but recieved only an answer that didn't look really helpful (turn off the phone for 3 days and see later).
    All the rest of the touch screen still works perfectly,  it's just the three navigation button that don't work, even tapping all the time. there's no sign of response from the phone.
    I really have no idea what's happened. Did someone had a similar, if not the same problem? any suggestion how to fix it?
    please help guys
    Thanks.

    I know this is a month old but all of  a sudden this morning I begane having the exact same problem.  
    My troubleshooting tasks so far have been to reboot the phone about 3 times.  
    I have hard reset my phone with just holding the power button down (not sliding the screen when asked to). Connected it to my computer to make sure it was updated.
    Deleted all new text messages (there was a bug a while back that can cause Windows 7 to lock up on certain formatted text messages. Then rebooted the phone again
    Deleted all new email messages from my google account on the phone. Rebooted the phone.
    And still I do not have any of my bottom buttons usable.  Has anyone figurec this out yet?  Every time I do something I have reboot the phone since I cannot back up or get to the home screen.

  • I've got a new computer with windows 7 & i downloaded firefox yesterdayerday. there are no menu buttons/navigation buttons showing up.

    i downloaded firefox yesterday. it is only showing maps4pc and googlechrome. there are no navigations tabs. i don't want the above two features. i only want plain simple firefox with navigation tool bar. everything i tried to fix the issue following instrurctions on the support pages didn't solve the problems. thanks

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • Navigation buttons freeze with some websites

    I lately started to get the navigation buttons (previous, next, reload) to stop working with some sites. I started to get this problem in FF 3.6 a couple of weeks ago, and after I upgraded to FF 4.0.
    It does not have a rule when to happen or in which sites. It normally occurs at least once a day (currently in this Mozilla support site while I'm writing). I'm on Windows 7 (suffered the same problem in two different machines).
    Any Ideas?

    I think I knew the cause of this problem; it's McAfee SiteAdvisor, which I depend on to surf the net safely.
    I looked for this problem in McAfee site, and they blame Firefox for it.
    In fact, this problem doesn't occur in IE (where the SA is also installed), so it can be an issue for both FF and SiteAdvisor.
    So until this problem is solved, is there any workaround?

  • Best Practice with Browser navigation buttons

    My Web Ap does a secured login and then the user is
    guided to various pages via Command buttons and links.
    The question I have is if the user presses the browser buttons to
    go back the various prior screens appear with waht the user
    entered. I do ot want this.
    What is the best practice to stop this functionality and or capture a event
    that f the user does this the screens are cleared?

    (I believe all Faces page navigation is done via POST (command{Button,Link}).)
    In our app (pre-Faces, but now we're moving to Faces, and I just can't tell you how much fun it is grafting Faces onto an old JSP/servlet app), we chose to open a new window when the user logs in, without browser decorations (i.e., navigation buttons). (This is done via javascript window.open(), with the appropriate options.)
    The old window can't be closed due to Javascript security constraints, so we redirect it to another page so the user won't be confused if he or she stumbles across what looks like a login page (by exposing that old window).
    After that, it's mostly an effort in user education: we just don't tell them about things like alt-left-arrow to go back or F5 to refresh or right-click anything (except View Source when we're debugging a problem). If they're "smart", we tell them "Don't do that", where "that" is either "stick your finger in your eye" or "use alt-left-arrow", depending on your sense of humor and ability to parse my idiomatic English.
    [There's an old joke in which a man goes to a doctor and says "Doctor, my eye hurts".  The doctor says "Hmm, can you tell me more?"  The patient says "Yes, it hurts when I do [i]this," and proceeds to jab his finger into his eye. The doctor says, "Ah, I see. Well, don't that any more," and the patient walks away satisfied with his "cure."]
