Can I pause sounds on Edge Commons?

I don't need Stop, need pause for relaunch the sound in the same time of I make pause.
And it's posible play the sound in especific time of sound?
Sorry for my English

Use buzz.js instead - it has more functionality in my opinion.

How can I get a sound to play more than once using edge commons?

Hi, I'm very new to all this; so apols if asking dumb stuff...
I've successfully used Edge Commons to get an audio effect to play in a timeline but it will only play once. Does anyone know how I can get it to play again at various trigger points?
The code I'm using in creationComplete is:
yepnope({
          load: "http://simonwidjaja.github.com/EdgeCommons/live/EdgeCommons-0.7.1.js",
          callback: function() {
                    // Load sound manifest (e.g. in creationComplete)
                    var assetsPath = "media/";
                    EC.Sound.setup(
                              {src: assetsPath + "bubbles.mp3|" + assetsPath + "bubbles.ogg", id: "bubbles"},
                        function(){ EC.info("Sound setup finished", "DEMO"); }
Then in a trigger on the timeline I have:
EC.Sound.play("bubbles");
As said, the above plays fine, one time... but if I place another, 'EC.Sound.play("bubbles");' trigger further along on the timeline nothing happens. Similarly, if the audio has played already and the timeline loops, the audio won't play a second time. I'm thinking I need to write in some sort of 'unload' type of thing so it knows to play again when it hits the new trigger? Or I might just be talking cobblers? Who knows? I certainly don't which is why I so desperately need help... please x

That's brilliant, Resdesign, and works perfectly in endlessly adapatable ways! Huge thanks! Great demo/sample file, by the way!
Also I 'accidentally' discovered (which may be of some help to anyone else who's new to all this) that the code which I'd used (see first post, above) ony runs the audio once when in preview mode. However, when the Edge Animate file is published the code works pefectly and when the second trigger is reached the audio plays a second time.
I'm guessing that when the 'publish' facility is utilsed the code is properly compiled (or something like that???) which is why it runs okay.
Anyway, whatever... the problem's solved! Hurrah! (Thanks Resdesign!) x x

Netflix and Youtube will not play on Firefox but I can still hear sound and can pause with the space bar. Works fine on Internet Explorer.

All of a sudden last night after Firefox restarted after an update I am no longer able to play Netflix or Youtube. I can hear the sounds from whatever I select to play but the browser is black and I can even pause using the space bar but no interaction with the cursor. Both Netflix and Youtube work fine on Internet Explorer... I tried updating plug ins, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling plug ins and I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox itself but nothing has helped. Not sure what steps to take next...

Hello,
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

Is There A Way To Loop Audio Using Edge Commons?

Hi,
I've been getting on really well using Edge Commons to add audio to my animations (fantastic bit of kit, by the way - thank you simonwidjaja !).
However, while playing a sound via the trigger EC.Sound.play("mySound"); works brilliantly for individual instances of sound I've wholly failed to find a way to get sound files to loop.
I've been struggling with this for an age, now, and really haven't got anywhere at all. I know that Edge Commons integrates SoundJS and I know that SoundJS provides a facility to loop audio but I can't see a way to make it happen via the Edge Commons script.
SoundJS' method seems to be couched as:
static SoundInstance play ( value , interrupt , delay , offset , loop , volume , pan )
And in Edge Commons I can find:
var instance = SoundJS.play(soundId, SoundJS.INTERRUPT_NONE, 0, 0, false, 1);
which I assume (perhaps incorrectly?) relates to the aforementioned SoundJS.
I'm guessing (as has been mooted by resdesign in another post) that I need to edit the following, which appears in creation complete, in order to make looping happen but I just can't seem to get anything I try to work.
{src: assetsPath + "mySound.mp3|" + assetsPath + "mySound.ogg", id: 'mySound'},
Of course, I may simply be on the wrong track altogether; so as ever, any thoughts and ideas will be very gratefully received x

Hi Emmy,
1. can I use buzz to create sound in edge compositions destined for the ipad?
Yep. Although there still exists the MASSIVELY annoying issue whereby iOS insists on a user-push to activate the play of any audio. Apple's assertion is that users shouldn't have to worry about being forced to download unsolicited audio which may end up costing them dear if they are on a chargeable 3G connection; so they've effectively disabled anything that is, or could be described as, an autoplay function. This means that instead of being able to include autoplay of audio - to, say, have a sound track automatically start playing when an animation begins - the playback of said track needs to be initiated by the user.
For example, the code: sym.getComposition().getStage().YourSoundName.play(); would need to be placed on a clickable button as opposed to a trigger on the main timeline or the timeline of any of your symbols.
In essence you have to provide the user with an opportunity to confirm that 'yes I want to hear this'.
While the sentiment behind not wishing users to incur unwarranted expense is understandable (and laudable) the whole concept is a huge pain for animators and a total joke-killer and best. Think of it in terms of Man Slips On Bananaskin... instead of users automatically/seamlessly being able to hear a comedic associated 'whoooooop' sound they have to click a button in order to do so. 'Do you want to hear an amusing noise associated with this bit of stage action? Click for yes'. Obviously one doesn't actually have to couch such a question in actuality, but you get the drift (The Death Of Fun!). As a 'semi' workaround you may want to try experimenting with mouseOver triggers on invisible buttons.
2. will users need internet access to hear the sounds each time? In other words do the sounds have to be called from an exteral source each time they are played, or are they part of the exported file and therefore only downloaded once. (I understand that Ihave to manually include the audio file in the exported Edge file).
Not quite sure about this one as I ended up working on some entirely different stuff; so didn't persue the Apple annoyances long enough to find out more.
3. can I use my own mp3 sounds, and if so, how?
If you mean, can you use mp3s that are not originated by you (i.e. iTunes tracks etc.) then essentially no. Not unless they're copyright/royalty free or you've obtained a license to use them.
If by your own mp3 sounds you mean audio that you've originated yourself, then yes, of course
It makes sense to produce both an mp3 and an ogg version of each sound, to ensure maximum compatibility with regard to user playback. Other than that, simply name your files, place them in a folder called 'audio' (for example) and then, in Edge's 'compositionReady', include the following code for each sound (changing the names accordingly):
sym.YourSoundName = new buzz.sound("audio/YourSoundName", {formats: [ "ogg", "mp3" ]});
sym.YourSoundName.bind('loadeddata', function(e){
var stage = Edge.getComposition(compId).getStage();
Then whenever you want to play a certain sound just use: sym.getComposition().getStage().YourSoundName.play(); on a trigger.
Hope this helps

Edge Commons...Help

I have been working very hard over the last few months to build in interactive book app with Edge Animate. I have all the pages done and all the interactivity and sound work...in a browser.
However, when I package the mobile app (using PhoneGap Build), I get no sound (using Animate's native audio control) unless the app is running on Android 4.2 or higher.
So I tried a different method I found here: Edge Animate & PhoneGap Build | Prototype A
This did get sound working on older Android devices, but only on the first page (once I moved to page 2, using straightforward html page linking, no more sound), and still no sound on iOS.
I then tried the bootstrapping method from the API. But I couldn't get control of my pages, it just ran instantly to the end of the last page. However, the sound on that last page was working (in Android only).
At a loss I tried using Edge Commons Composition Loader and Sound. I can get the first page to load in the container, but I cannot get the navigation buttons (held within the loaded comp) to load the next page. I can get the sound to work in a browser, but not on a device. And, on Android my loaded composition seems to be cropped, only showing the top left quarter, and runs extremely slowly.
Here is the code I have in the main wrapper page (the one which has the container for loading the external comps into.
//In creationComplete:
EC.loadComposition.setup(sym);
EC.Sound.setup(sym);
EC.centerStage(sym);
//In compositionReady:
EC.loadComposition("Pages/RUP_Cover.html", sym.getSymbol("content"))
.done(function(comp) {
i=0;
var stage = comp.getStage();
stage.$("FWD").click(function() {
i++;
stage.$("PREV").click(function() {
i--;
if(i<1){
i=1;
if (i==1){EC.loadComposition("Pages/RUP_Pg01.html", sym.getSymbol("content"))}
if (i==2){EC.loadComposition("Pages/RUP_Pg02.html", sym.getSymbol("content"))}
I am slowly going insane with this project so any help would be enormously appreciated.
I think the iOS audio issue may be to do with the config.xml I am using for PhoneGap Build, but if anyone has any ideas...
Thanks
Justin

I know this a really late response but this may help someone later...I think you're looking for:
EC.debug( "layout: "+layout, "ADAPTIVE" );
The output of layout will be: 300. So:
if(layout == "300"){

How do I use edge commons composition loader to load multiple compositions with a next and back button?

I am working on an interactive book and have set up each page as a separate composition in edge.
I am using the edge commons JS library to load multiple compositions into a main composition.
You can see how this works here: Edge Commons - Extension Library for Edge Animate and Edge Reflow | EdgeDocks.com
The way the edge commons tutorial is set up requires a button for each composition i want to load. I am interested in loading multiple compositions with a "next" and "back" button, and a "swipe left, "swipe right" gesture on the content symbol that each composition is loaded into. I also need the swipe features on the content symbol not to interfere with the interactive elements on the loaded composition.
Please suggest a solution that will work without adding additional scripts beyond edge commons and jquery.

Sort of. I'm using this code inside an action for a button symbol. But it doesn't work perfectly. Trying to debug it.
Let me know if you have any luck.
//Check to see if pageCounter already exists
if (typeof EC.pageCounter === 'undefined') {
// it doesn't exist so initialize it to first page
EC.pageCounter = 2;
//check if the page is only 1 digit -- patch for single digit
if (EC.pageCounter < 9) {
// it is, so we need to pad a 0 on the front.
EC.pageCounterString = "0" + EC.pageCounter;
//e.g. 01 ...09,11,12,13....115,222352,,....
else {
EC.pageCounterString = EC.pageCounter;
EC.loadComposition(EC.pageCounterString + "/publish/web/" + EC.pageCounterString + ".html", sym.$("container"));
EC.pageCounter = EC.pageCounter + 1;

We will update you on the fix. Right now, if you add jquery ui as a dependency after jQuery, that will solve your problem. I am sharing a sample here - Dropbox - EC.zip. I am loading jQuery UI from the CDN, you can copy is locally also and load it from there.

Pause Sound not working correctly

Hi guys,
I'm using a version of the pause sound code found on the adobe/help page, but it's not resuming the sound from the pausePoint. I have the pause/play function tied to the stage so that my external swfs pause as well. Here's a clip of my code,
This is the load audio with swf part:
var fl_Loader_5:Loader;
var fl_ToLoad_5:Boolean = true;
var channel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
var req_1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("audio/Introduction.mp3");
introductionButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_5);
function fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_5(event:MouseEvent):void
SoundMixer.stopAll();
fl_Loader_5 = new Loader();
fl_Loader_5.load(new URLRequest("captivate/Introduction.swf"));
parent.addChild(fl_Loader_5);
fl_Loader_5.x = 100;
fl_Loader_5.y = -288;
snd.load(req_1);
channel = snd.play();
fl_Loader_6.unloadAndStop();
fl_Loader_7.unloadAndStop();
fl_Loader_8.unloadAndStop();
fl_Loader_9.unloadAndStop();
fl_Loader_10.unloadAndStop();
introductionButton.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_5);
This is the stage pause and audio pause part:
flash.system.Security.allowDomain("*");
ExternalInterface.marshallExceptions = true;
var originalFrameRate:uint = stage.frameRate;
var standbyFrameRate:uint = 0;
function toggleAllClips(doAnim, mainMC) {
if ( parent is MovieClip){
if (doAnim) {
parent.stage.frameRate = originalFrameRate;
channel = snd.play(pausePosition);
} else {
var pausePosition:int = channel.position;
channel.stop();
parent.stage.frameRate = standbyFrameRate;
for (var i = 0; i<mainMC.numChildren; i++) {
   toggleAllClips(doAnim, mainMC.getChildAt(i));
How do I better target the pausePoint? Do I need an equation or should I reposition the code?
Also, the first time the stage resumes and the audio restarts from the beggining, it doesn't stop on the next pause and then a second audio track comes in on the following resume, on and on. What gives?

FOUND IT!!! A co-worker and I set down with your new code and brainstormed and it came down to adding another instane of the "currentSound = null;" Here's that section of the code adjusted :
var originalFrameRate:uint = stage.frameRate;
var standbyFrameRate:uint = 0;
var pausePosition:int;
function toggleSound(b:Boolean):void{
if(b){
channel = currentSound.play(pausePosition);
pausePosition = 0;
} else {
pausePosition = channel.position;
channel.stop();
function toggleAllClips(doAnim, mainMC) {
if (parent is MovieClip){
if (doAnim) {
parent.stage.frameRate = originalFrameRate;
channel = currentSound.play(pausePosition);
pausePosition = 0;
currentSound = null;
} else {
pausePosition = channel.position;
channel.stop();
parent.stage.frameRate = standbyFrameRate;
for (var i = 0; i<MovieClip.(parent.parent.parent.mainMC).numChildren; i++) {
   toggleAllClips(doAnim, parent.getChildAt(i));
I had assumed that nulling out any of the references to the original snd_1 would kill all the audio, but it didn't, it just stopped the duplicate. Here's all of my code in case anyone has the same issue:

JAVASCRIPTS
JavaScript needs to be wrapped in a tag, a cdata, and a closure
function in order to be wrapped up and sent to the browser.
Note that an ActionScript function will replace all instances
of "xxx" with the actual ID used for this SWF.
We're battling some major bugs and crossbrowser idiosyncrasies
here:
1) In Internet Explorer the 'onblur' event is implemented
    incorrectly (as opposed to Firefox/Mozilla browsers). It is
    wrongly fired when focus is switched between HTML elements
    *inside* a window. As a result, we have to use onfocusout
    instead of onblur, and keep track of which element is active.
    If we focusout and the active element is not the previous
    active element, then we haven't actually "blurred" and dont
    want to trigger Flash.
2) Firefox has problems interpreting both getElementById and
    document["swf"] when dealing with "twicebaked" object/embeds.
    Adobe's method of finding the swf fails to address the fact
    that document["swf"] sometimes returns an array in this
    situation rather than an object ref, and getElementById
    sometimes confuses name and id.
3) When a window is created in Firefox, it doesn't actually have
    "focus" (event though it appears to) and therefore won't "blur"
    unless you actually click in it first, i.e if you open up a
    window, then immediately send it to the background, it never
    gets the command to halt the flash. So we have to explicitly
    focus the blasted thing to get it to work properly.
4) Because of irregularities caused by Ajax, the way browsers shut
    down, and other factors, there's a good chance our swf won't
    be there when a blur (or focusout) event occurs. Therefore we
    need an explicit check within the event handler itself.
5) Finally, we want to wrap everything inside a wrapper-closure
    function, to keep everything safe from being stepped on. Lucky
    us, we have to do this anyways to get everything to fit inside
    a single ExternalInterface.call event.

Thanks you SOOO MUCH for your help. There is no way I could have done this alone and now I have a better understanding about referencing vars.
Thanks,

Hi there,
It sounds like your purchased content is not transfering via a flash drive. It may be easier to re-download this contnet directly from iTunes. Take a look at the article below for mor information.

TS3274 I up graded to ios7 now I can't get sound on my ipad2?

I up graded to ios7 on my ipad2, now I can't get sound on my ipad

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

Give swipeleft/right gestures to multiple external compositions that are loaded with composition loader by Edge Commons

Hello,
I have multiple external compositions that I load in my Edge project, with the composition loader by Edge Commons.
I would like to connect these external compositions with swipeleft / right gestures.
When I give the containers (where the external compositions are loaded in) the swipe gestures, it
works perfectly. But when the external compositions are loaded, the swipe gestures on the containers doesn't work anymore.
So is it possible to give the external compositions the swipe gestures. And that when they are loaded in my Edge project, the external compositions can communicate with each other.
For Example:
External composition one is loaded and when I swipe to the left, external composition 2 will slide in from right to left.
I think it must be that the external compositions have a function to control the timeline in the Edge Project.
I hope that this is possible and can help me with the code. Or have another solution.
Thanks!

I think I have the same or a similar issue.
I am using a modified version of Edge Commons - Extension Library for Edge Animate and Edge Reflow | EdgeDocks.com
to listen to touch swipe events in an external compositions.
var promise = EC.loadComposition("publish/comp_01.html", sym.getSymbol("content"));
     promise.done(function(comp) {
           var stage = comp.getStage();
       // Listen for events dispatched by the external composition
                stage.$("bg").swipeleft(function() {
                      EC.loadComposition("publish/comp_02.html", sym.getSymbol("content"));
                stage.$("bg").swiperight(function() {
                      EC.loadComposition("publish/test1.html", sym.getSymbol("content"));
This works great for the composition loaded by this script, but the comp.getStage function does not pick up on swipe events on anything other than the .$("bg") in this composition.
For example I have 30 compositions each with a .$("bg") but only the one loaded by this script works with this script. I am looking for a way to universalize the event listener to work with every .$("bg") loaded into my main stage symbol.
Do you or does anyone else have a solution?

Synchronise symbol animation using Edge Commons

Hi All,
I've been trying to animate a PNG sequence that I created with After Effects and Fireworks using the Edge Commons parallax snippet. I'm also trying to make this responsive. I have a vague understanding of the code used so I put together a few other bits and pieces of code I found on these forums.
The effect I'd like to obtain is to scroll down and synch the animation of the symbols with the scrollbar. Ideally I'd also like to reverse the animation when scrolling down and pull in other symbols but I'm not even sure that this can be done using inline code or actually creating the reversed animation within the symbol.
I've been trying hard in the past few days but this is where I got so far ;(
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fr6ygqs16jq11fu/wedding_invite.zip
Sorry the file is pretty heavy but the png sequences aren't optimised yet.
Thanks

Hi Eric ,
There might be many ways to do the play and play reverse using click operation as described by you but this is what I think could be done .
We can set a variable in our compositionReady function   sym.setVariable("count", 0);
Then in the click handler of the symbol we can write the following code
var x = sym.getVariable("count");
var mySymbolObject = sym.getSymbol("Symbol_1");
//Now check if you have clicked once then play otherwise play reverse .
if(x%2 == 0)
          mySymbolObject.play();
else
          mySymbolObject.playReverse();
x++;
// Set the value of a Symbol variable
sym.setVariable("count",x);
Please refer the attached composition . Hope it helps
Thanks
Saurav

Edge commons parallax not working...

Hello I am a new user I need help with edge commons the parallax feature is not working so anyone can send me a demo or somethings
thanks

We will update you on the fix. Right now, if you add jquery ui as a dependency after jQuery, that will solve your problem. I am sharing a sample here - Dropbox - EC.zip. I am loading jQuery UI from the CDN, you can copy is locally also and load it from there.

ITunes 10.1 and Earbuds with Remote - Can't pause or skip songs on MBP

Since upgrading to Mac OS X 10.6.5 and iTunes 10.1 today, I notice that I can't pause and skip songs with my iPhone earbuds when they're plugged into the Mac. I have a [latest gen 2.4 GHz] 13" MacBook Pro and I could have sworn this was a feature that worked prior to the upgrade. I know it works just fine on my 27" iMac at home, so it's possible that I might be confusing the two systems. All I am able to change is the volume up and down.
Does anyone else have a 13" MBP and a pair of earbuds with the mic? Are you able to click once and pause iTunes and click twice to skip to the next song? I'm so used to doing this on my phone and iMac that I wonder if I am just taking it for granted and maybe the 13" MBP never supported this.
Thanks for any help or tips you can provide.

I've heard others with this same problem in the past. It sounds like a manufacturing problem with the headphones themselves causing the buttons to not work.
