Loading part of a sound.

I want to be able to play just a clip of a song, so it is wasteful to load the entire song.  Is there a way to just load say, 10 seconds of a song?

They use a  specialized Streaming Server (like Flash Media Server, Red5)
The features you demand will cost (License and bandwith)
The exact term is HTTP Live Streaming and it needs more technological backbone than the average provider will cheaply offer

  • Itunes only loads parts of songs.

    When i load cds onto itunes it only loads parts of the songs, and for some it says 'not available'.
    For example dani california, which is 4:42 long, only comes up as 1:19, and snow, the song after is 'not available'.
    The cd's work in my cd player 100% fine, and all the tracks are there, just not complete.....
    Any fixes?

    It seems that I have the same problem.
    While am working on the Mac, I often listen music on iTunes 8.0.2 (iMac G4 OS X 10.4.11) with Shuffle On, Repeat Off, I notice some pieces doesn't play completely and change before the end.
    Opening the music file with Sound Studio, I saw that a part is missing (Waveform is flat). Sometime only few second at the end, but sometime only few second left at the beginning !
    What could have gone wrong ? How to fix this ?
    Thanks for any help you can give,
    (I looked on my BackUp Disk to restore the full missing number. Unfortunately, it seems that SuperDuper "Sand Box" has already BackUp and replace the right full numbers with the defect one !)

  • How to divide and load parts of Large Adobe AIR app for Android

    Hi!
    I want to create an app for Android but it will quite large. It will be larger than the 50MB offered by Google Play Store. This means that I need to find a way and break the app and load parts of it when I need them. Imagine it like minigames inside a bigger app.
    It is not clear to me how to achieve this since every time on AIR, I can export and APK file for a mini-game let's say. Can I later download APKs and integrate them into my main app? How would this be possible? Another question that I have is: In order for a SWF to play on my app, it needs to be built by AIR for Android?
    The best case would be to download content from In-App purchases and integrate in my app.
    But these things are not so clear.
    Thanks in advance for your help and support.

    I don't know how your application is structured, but if you can split sections off into separate SWFs(plain AS3 document) then you could host those section SWFs online and require the user to download them on first run.
    You could use the FileReference object to download the SWFs, save them to the File.applicationStorageDirectory, and then display/load them up with the Loader object when needed from the app storage directory. You would possibly need to check to see if the files are present at every boot of the app though as a user could "Clear Data" or "Clear Cache" of the app in the Settings of their device and one or both of those could/would delete the downloaded files.

  • Embeded Flash files stop loading part way through after update to 10.2

    Hello, I am currently having an issue with Flash. After the last update to 10.2, flash files, both audio and video, stop loading part way through them and do not start up again. For instance, on youtube, about 2 minutes worth of video will load but load slowly and then stop completely. The only way to get it to advance is to click past the section that has loaded and it will load the next 2 minutes. On Myspace Music, a song plays about 40 seconds each time and stops completely and will not load anymore, even if I try to skip to another part of the song. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit edition with Firefox 4.0 Beta 12 64 bit edition as well. Also I have tried clearing my cache, cookings, temp files, removing and installing Flash countless times, including older versions, as well as tried Google Chrome and IE. All give me the exact same issue no matter what I do. It is really frustrating because I cannot watch or listen to anything embeded in Flash online without having to keep clicking the next section every little bit. If anyone can help, please do and I thank you.

    Hi, Since your OS is a 64bit, are you using the 32bit browser for IE? I see you have the FF beta. Have they come out with a 64bit browser? I don't follow the FF beta so if that's true, it's news to me.
    Let me know,
    Thanks,

  • Load Part of the jar

    Hi Team,
    My Jar size is very huge.My applet is loading the entire jar at a time.I want to load part of the jar(That means only needed files at start) , later dynamically i will load the other files.
    Is it possible?, if it is possible could you please explain clearly.
    Thanks
    T. Shankar Reddy

    I Got the solution.
    I did the Main.jar is into three Jar's.1) Main.jar 2) Child1.jar 3) Child2.jar
    Now Main.jar size very less--> This jar contains classes needed for the startup application.
    Child1.jar, Child2.jar will be loaded when ever it needed. But don't the put the child's jar in the classpath.
    Thanks

  • Loading and Playing Multiple Sounds

    I have written a loadSound function which handles loading and playing multiple sounds. This function works fine when I call this function in another keyframe i.e. the frame in which the function is not written. But when I call the function on the same frame in which the function is written the sounds gets mixed up. For example the function is written in 1st keyframe. If I call this function in 2nd, 3rd and 4th keyframe (with different sounds) it works fine. But when i call the same function in 1st, 2nd and 3rd keyframe it all gets messed up.
    In 1st keyframe the sound plays properly. When I move to 2nd Keyframe the 2nd sound plays. But when I move back to the 1st keyframe the 2nd and 1st keyframe sounds all get mixed up. This doesn't happen when I call the function in 2nd, 3rd and 4th keyframes.
    Below is my function:
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.media.Sound;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
    import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
    import flash.errors.IOError;
    import flash.media.SoundChannel;
    import flash.media.SoundMixer;
    import flash.events.TimerEvent;
    import flash.utils.Timer;
    import flash.display.MovieClip;
    import flash.media.SoundTransform;
    stop();
    var s:Sound;
    var localSound:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
    var req:URLRequest;
    var loadedPct:uint;
    var currentFrameArr:Array = ["One","Two","Three"];
    var urlArr:Array = ["sound/m01_t01_s01.mp3","sound/m01_t01_s02.mp3","sound/page10_11.mp3"];
    function loadSnd(currentFrm:String)
    s = new Sound();
    s.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onSoundProgress);
    s.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onSoundLoaded);
    s.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);
    localSound.stop();
    for (var i:uint=0; i<currentFrameArr.length; i++)
      if (currentFrm == currentFrameArr[i])
       req = new URLRequest(urlArr[i]);
    s.load(req);
    function onSoundProgress(evt:ProgressEvent):void
      loadedPct = Math.round(100 * (evt.bytesLoaded / evt.bytesTotal));
      trace("The sound is " + loadedPct + " % loaded");
    function onSoundLoaded(evt:Event):void
      localSound = s.play();
    function onIOError(evt:IOErrorEvent):void
      trace("The sound could not be loaded: " + evt.text);
    Call to this function in different frames:
    loadSnd("One");
    loadSnd("Two");
    etc
    If I pass the parameter 'One' in loadSnd it plays the 1st element in urlArray, 'Two' 2nd element and so on.
    I have been scratching my head since long over this.
    Can anybody please pinpoint the error.

    Got the solution. The SoundMixer.stopAll(); statement did the trick. The complete workable function is pasted below:
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.media.Sound;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
    import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
    import flash.errors.IOError;
    import flash.media.SoundChannel;
    import flash.media.SoundMixer;
    import flash.events.TimerEvent;
    import flash.utils.Timer;
    import flash.display.MovieClip;
    import flash.media.SoundTransform;
    stop();
    var s:Sound;
    var localSound:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
    var req:URLRequest;
    var loadedPct:uint;
    var currentFrameArr:Array = ["One","Two","Three"];
    var urlArr:Array = ["sound/m01_t01_s01.mp3","sound/m01_t01_s02.mp3","sound/page10_11.mp3"];
    function loadSnd(currentFrm:String)
      s = new Sound();
      s.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onSoundProgress);
      s.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onSoundLoaded);
      s.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);
      SoundMixer.stopAll();
      localSound.stop();
      for (var i:uint=0; i<currentFrameArr.length; i++)
      if (currentFrm == currentFrameArr[i])
      req = new URLRequest(urlArr[i]);
      break;
      s.load(req);
    function onSoundProgress(evt:ProgressEvent):void
      loadedPct = Math.round(100 * (evt.bytesLoaded / evt.bytesTotal));
      trace("The sound is " + loadedPct + " % loaded");
    function onSoundLoaded(evt:Event):void
      localSound = s.play();
    function onIOError(evt:IOErrorEvent):void
      trace("The sound could not be loaded: " + evt.text);
    Calling the function
    loadSnd("One");
    loadSnd("Two"); etc

  • I tried to turn off my iPod 4g, but it gets stuck at the loading part... What should I do?

    My facebook app didn't work, so I thought I'd shut it off and then turn it back on. So I turned it off but it got stuck at the part where you see the little circle turning (the loading part). It's been doing this for like 14 hours now and I don't know what to do... Can anybody help me?
    Thanks so much!

    If you can connect it to iTunes if not put it in Recovery mode then connect to iTunes. It should recognise your device. On iTunes click on the restore button make sure your device is backed up before you do this. This should reinstall the iOS and allow you to boot it up. This will wipe the apps and data so make sure it is all backed up before you do this. If you need any more help just ask.

  • Video loads part way and freezes

    Our site is keeping an archive of 45 min videos and for some
    reason they load for awhile and then the load bar jumps to the end
    and the video will freeze at that point in the scroll bar. This
    started with .flv files so we got a player that plays .mov and
    .mp4, both of which do the same thing. This freezing problem isn't
    always there and sometimes a video will play through.
    Fixes I've tried:
    - switch audio to 44100
    - take off sound (this actually works, but i need sound)
    - change files types
    - switch servers
    - make videos shorter
    - make sure video is embeded
    here's the link to the site
    Video
    Player
    The current video that's doing this is the one named
    "Messages" or any of the videos under the "What if" series.
    If you happen to have seen an answer to this or have a
    suggestion it would be a huge help. I've been working on this for
    weeks. Thanks.

    For anyone with the same problem, I've found what seems to be
    working so far. Paste this into your .htaccess and it will keep
    Apache from compressing your files. And be sure to add in the file
    types you need.
    # disables compression on gifs,jpegs,pngs,mp3s and flvs
    # for the mod_deflate compression
    <IfModule mod_deflate.c>
    SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \
    \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png|flv|mp3)$ no-gzip dont-vary
    </IfModule>
    # for mod_gzip - note; note totally sure about this one as i
    don't use it
    # however this should work.
    <IfModule mod_gzip.c>
    mod_gzip_item_exclude file \.gif $
    mod_gzip_item_exclude file \.jpeg$

  • DR-BTN200's right ear is louder and left ear part makes weird sound when the volume is high

    I bought DR-BTN200 a while ago and I've been feeling that the right ear part is louder than left ear part.
    Not because of my hearing; if I switched R and L around, I still hear left (original right) louder than the right (original left).
    Also if I increase the volume, the left ear part makes a high pitch sound when singer/talker/instrument makes an emphasis in their voice/sound.
    Is this a common problem? I didn't drop it at all or anything and I just keep the headphone in the part of bag where I am supposed to put laptop in. From outside I don't see any damage on it either.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Please follow the steps here to troubleshoot the issue. If you need further assistance, please post your inquiry on Sony France Community here. Thanks!

  • Loading part of a applet first and init

    Hi,
    I'm developing a applet and currently the size of it quite large. so i want to divide applet into two parts and hope to load one part of applet first and second part is downloading while first part is running.
    the main problem here is, this applet should be run on MS VM (jdk 1.1.8). i have some idea to copy second jar file to local machine classpath and then access it on demand. in this case, seems jar is need to copy local machine before applet is loaded.
    please help me to resolve this problem......

  • Loading a swf with sound... now I can't stop the sound.

    I have an mp3 player that works standalone. When I load it
    into another
    movie I do it like so...
    musicHolder.sound_holder.removeMovieClip();
    musicHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("sound_holder", 29);
    musicHolder.sound_holder.loadMovie("radio/mp3player.swf",
    "GET");
    This works great, and the player loads and plays and all is
    great and
    wonderful. But now I want to close the player. If I do a
    removeMovieClip
    like this:
    musicHolder.sould_holder.removeMovieClip();
    Then the viual of the MC goes away, but not the sound. Is
    this because the
    sound is somehow loading into the _root timeline of the main
    movie loading
    the mp3player.swf?
    Please, a little help.
    acb

    this is inelegant but should work,
    musicHolder.sould_holder.removeMovieClip();
    stopAllSounds();

  • I have a load noise from what sounds like the fan.  MBP 15" 2009

    My MBP 15" makes a grinding sound that will go away and then come back.  If it is the fan, how difficult is this to have replaced?

    13 screws. 10 for the bottom pan and 3 for the fan. Takes 3 screws longer than upgrading the RAM, with the advantage that the fan is not static-sensitive.
    If one fan is bad, the other will follow shortly thereafter. Under warranty, Apple always changes both, you should follow suit. www.ifixit.com has the procedure and the parts you need.
    For diagnosing if it IS the fan, use an Old Mechanic's Trick: get a short, thin metal rod. Place one end against the bony area right in front of your good ear. Place the other end against various spots on the Mac to determine the nature of the sound and its exact location. Use iFixIt's photos to see which component is the noisemaker: on the 15" MBP there are 4 candidates: 2 fans, one HDD and one optical drive. No other moving parts inside.

  • Firefox won't load parts of web pages or let me log into certain websites

    I don't quite know how to really explain this, so I'll provide two examples of the problems I'm experiencing:
    The first is that, whenever I go onto any of those Wikia sites, Firefox doesn't seem to load anything other than the main page content. By this, I mean that it won't load any "Recently edited/added pages" box or "Recently uploaded images" box on the right hand side of the page, nor will it open the Contents tab to navigate different sections of the main page content itself.
    Another problem I'm having is logging in to a website I usually frequent. It uses Facebook, Twitter and/or Google+ to log in, and the site has recently started running on Flash and Silverlight. Up until a few weeks ago, I am unable to log in to this website for the same reason as the example above - it just doesn't seem to load after clicking to log in, yet the rest of the site is fully functional.
    In regards to the former example, I did manage to do something with Java that managed to fix it, however when attempting to emulate the solution when it happened again, nothing happened. I'm unsure of what the problem is. Can someone help?

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    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
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
