Sound clip under scrolling frame

Trying to place a sound clip beneath a scrolling frame in article. Separately, the scrolling frame and image with sound control buttons work fine. Combining the two results in scrolling frame working but sound controls being inactive.
I've tried layers and mso with a button stating to advance to next state on release of scrolling frame.
Anyone have a solution for making this work? Thanks!

Are you trying to put the sound controller behind (on the Z-axis) the scrolling frame, or are you trying to put it below (on the Y-axis) the scrolling frame? Just want to make sure you aren't blocking the controls.
If you are putting the controller below the scrolling frame, are you sure it isn't being covered by any part of the frame, or some other overlay?
Screenshots of this would be very helpful.

Making a sound clip sync with rest of movie.

So I solved this problem and realized I posted it under AS3 and it should have been here. So I figured it may help somone. All I did was change the setting to "Stream" under the properties panel for each sound clip!
Making sound sync with my controls
Hello all,
This is one of my first flash movies so bear with my inexperience!
I've made a slide show with three pieces of audio that are set up to play with certain images. So you can imagine when the video is paused but the sound continues playing everything gets a bit messed up.
I have each audio on a different layer and none of them overlap, just fade in/out to one another.
EDIT: Almost forgot, so how can I get the audio to stop/play along with the rest of the flash file when play/pause is clicked on. And can I skip forword/backward 15frames in the audio clip as I am doing with the images?
Here is the AS3 for the back button (gtmf) and foreword button (gtpf)
stop();
mc_content.stop();
gtmf.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gtmfs);
function gtmfs(event:MouseEvent) :void {
gotoAndStop(this.currentFrame-15)
mc_content.gotoAndStop(this.currentFrame-15)
pp.gotoAndStop(1);
gtpf.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gtpfs);
function gtpfs(event:MouseEvent) :void {
gotoAndStop(this.currentFrame+15)
mc_content.gotoAndStop(this.currentFrame+15)
pp.gotoAndStop(1);
The play/pause button is a movieclip symbol (pp) with two frames, each with their own AS3.
Play button (gogo)
stop();
gogo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goplaying);
function goplaying(event:MouseEvent) :void {
MovieClip(root).play();
MovieClip(root).mc_content.play();
gotoAndStop(2);
Pause button (halthalt)
stop();
halthalt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, haltplaying);
function haltplaying(event:MouseEvent) :void {
MovieClip(root).stop();
MovieClip(root).mc_content.stop();
gotoAndStop(1);

Yep, ain't that the truth....
Along with the randomness of the HTML elements in general, the relationship between the Flash and HTML are similarly 'independent'.
I was just wondering if there were some little tricks or methods used by web guys these days, as it seems like clever new techniques or new capabilities in CSS or Flash pop up from time to time.
Very odd, though... The interface graphics are very light, yet sometimes the page takes a few seconds to show, and the Flash appears right away (the opposite of what I'd normally expect, when things 'go wrong').
I still don't get why the SWF shows up (when the rest of the table doesn't), if the rule is true that a table won't show up unless all the content is available.
Is there some sort of weird exception if the content of a cell is Flash?

Can't set sound clip as message tone

I have an N73 and i noticed that i cant use any of my sound clips as my message tone. I can for ring tone and i also notice my friends N73 allows her to do it but i dont have that option any ideas??

It is possible to use recorded sound as an alert.Save the sound under sound clips.Go to tools > profile > general > scroll down to message alert tone. There you will see your recording.

Some questions/findings - Merged Clips, Markers, Match Frame, Source Clips etc

Hi,
Working on my second long form project with CC (1 hour + timelines) and am encountering some problems with merged clips.
Problem 1 - So I do all my markers in a video clip (which can take hours). I add names and copy the names into the markers notes. I then merge the clips (video with sound) and the markers are there but all the notes have gone. This doesn't always happen but it happens enough for me to have been looking for answers as its completely wasted time.
Problem 2 - More variations of lost markers. In some cases I have put markers on sound clips. Merged with video and the markers are there but all names and comments have gone.
Problem 3 - Merged clips - I am sharing the project with another editor (I am PC based and he is Mac based). I set everything up so he has a mirror of my files and folder structure. I send him new edits (timelines) and some merged clips work fine sometimes the audio goes offline. This can also be reversed. He sends me edits and sometimes the merged clips work fine and sometimes the audio disappears. The real problem comes when you have then lost your markers on the video and audio and end up having no idea where the in points are as the match frame doesn't work on merged clips. It only matches the frame on the merged clip and not the source clip.
Problem 4 - Clips going offline but they are online. I get this quite often, mainly with sound (recorded on a zoom recorder - STE-001.wav etc). Quite often it will say the clip is offline so I click to "locate" and it directs me to the file but it has seemingly not linked it. So CC knows where the clip is... I just have to select it and its linked. Why does it come up as offline/locate when it's in exactly the same place it was and the CC path takes me straight to the clip?
What I need to be able to do with merged clips is;
1 - I need to be able to easily get to the source material for each merged clip. Say for example I put a merged clip in a timeline.. and the audio has seemingly gone offline. If I click the audio I would like to go back to the merged clip and then select if I need to go back to the audio or video for said merged clip and for match frame to be frame accurate on the audio and video. I used to live by this in Avid. Reveal in project is great but again it takes me to the merged clip and not the source clips. Surely there is a way to get back to the source clips Audio/Video?
2 - I need to have a way that marker information will not get lost in merged clips... EVER!!! I really can't pinpoint why it happens or when it happens but it happens, too often. Some clips it seems fine and then all of a sudden the info is gone. Once it's gone there's no way of getting it back. I need to be able to 100% save the marker info. Even if it's as a separate word doc or something. A documentary with maybe 20-+ hours of interviews... all logged nicely via markers and then for me to randomly lose marker info is absolutely not up to scratch. PLEASE SORT IT
Finally.... I am still posting in the PP forum. is there not a dedicated CC forum yet? I couldn't find it.. am I missing something? Makes it real hard in Google if I have to go through PP posts as well.
Thanks

This bug is NOT FULLY FIXED. I'm on a tight deadline so i'm not looking very hard online to see if i'm alone - so please forgive me for just posting here...
I'm using CC7.2.1 it's 1/21... very grateful that match frame FINALLY works on merged clips, but, again, this insert/overwrite bug is only PARTIALLY FIXED.
Insert/overwrite with merged clips on 3-point edit now works, but ONLY when cutting in BOTH merged video+audio... if you're just trying to cut in the audio from a merged clip using a 3-point/4-point edit via hotkey, it's a no-go.
I, for example, needed to re-cut in audio under some video with effects on it. So, I unpatched the video source completely and patched source audio tracks 1-4 to the appropriate sequence tracks. Upon hitting insert or overwrite multiple times, nothing responds. The only way to cut anything in from the source (merged clip) was to patch the source video back into the timeline on an unused video track, then cut ALL the tracks from the source in, I then had to delete the video track re-link the now free audio to the original video. Not a big deal, but annoying enough & waste of precious time on tight deadline.
So, yeah, I have a workaround but is still not appropriate to have a core function not work properly. Especially when I'm working with a very complicated timeline.
That said, thanks for keeping on top of our gripes, Mark.

Loss of sound clip

I have a E63 and I have been using using the record function to record information for a project
I am doing and untill now have had no problems, after deleting one of the clips in the "Gallery/soundclips folder that was no longer needed , I now find that I have no sound from the the sound clips that are still in the folder even though the indication that the clip is playing but if the clip is instantly replayed while still in the recording device, there is no problem and the sound clips can also to be heard if one uses them as a ring tones
   I have not found so far if I have some how muted the sound clips and if so how do I turn them on.
   There are no sound problems with any video clips that have be taken previously
   Anyone got any ideas on my problem and how to correct for it
TIA mortda

Managed to finally solve my problem,it was amater of using the function key and using the scroll button to increase the sound

Are the sound clips from Final Cut Pro Fair Use?, Are the sound clips from Final Cut Pro Fair Use?

I recently found YouTube had flaged a video for containing a "third party" sound clip. All clips I've used in videos for YouTube have come directly from Final Cut Pro X. Any idea if the sound clips are Fair Use? I'm not sure how to repsond to YouTube and don't want to get a mark against my account due to this.

You can pretty much forget about monetizing that specific video.
[Okay... I'm going to ramble now...]
To avoid problems with youtube, you need to post a copyright (like this: @2013 by Your Name) on the video (I recommend within the first 10 seconds) -- and you better have it *right*. If you use other audio and video, as long as you have secured the proper permissions for use, you can still claim a copyright to the video you post on YouTube -- it is your creation (but it better not be a single clip of somebody else's work being passed off as something you did -- just to be clear -- your videos need to have original content that you created in order to justify the © you put on it. If you use *other stuff* as long as it's *with* permissions, it's still your video.) [If your video is going to be monetized -- make absolutely sure you have that permission for *commercial* use! Quite a lot of sources will specify that their materials *cannot* be used for any commercial use without further permissions, if at all. With Apple Loops (pro apps music and sound) you do have that express permission to be used in commercial works as long as it follows the EULA. More below.)]
You also need to specify the music and/or sound effects are "licensed from Apple Computer and used with permission" and you might as well state they are "made with Apple Loops". YouTube understands the EULA of the Apple Pro software (Logic, STP, FCP/FCPX, etc...) -- but even Apple licensed all that stuff from outside sources. Apple just takes care of paying "them" for it in advance so you don't have to (you buy it with the cost of the software license.)
You cannot use any of the "music beds" by themselves, in their entirety (all those nice long demo pieces everybody likes so much and you hear several times a day on [local] TV commercials). The EULA actually specifically states this (although you might have to read it two or three times until it becomes clear...LOL). Even loops are not to be released "as is", in their entirety, in any "derivative work". So, basically, make sure some other sound is mixed in with it (if it's music, add drums or other percussion, harmony, or duck it under talking, etc...)
The point is, no matter what audio source you have, if it is *music* (or foley) and EVEN IF you are the creator of that music or sound effect, you need to specifically put it in writing IN the video (not in the description). You need to reference the source (e.g.: stock footage by BottledVideo.com) and state it's being used with (or by) permission. [According to YouTube: I have copyright infringed MYSELF!!! just for leaving out all this *stuff* from my subsequent videos (music that I composed and performed myself on guitar... I was livid... but it stuck!).]
I can pretty much guarantee that within minutes of posting your video (if it is monetized) -- some real live person at youtube puts eyes on that video to make sure it is properly "signed". I can tell by how long it takes for the monetize checkmark to go from dark to light green -- usually less than 10 minutes.
If your video is not monetized, and it's not a blatant violation, they probably will let you off with a warning, tell you that you don't need to do anything "right now" and it won't count as a mark against you... If it IS monetized, it won't be - they'll turn it right off and your chances of winning a challenge are almost 0 (unless you can PROVE you own the material -- and I have won a challenge -- see * below); and you will probably see a "Copyright Notices" (or similar) item in the menu on your channel settings. If you can redo the video - pull the old one, put in the new info and re-up it. It's a royal PITA, but in this day and age, it's a necessity.
All videos destined for youtube should be treated as mini motion pictures and be prepared as such with full "disclosures" in titling... Welcome to 21st Century Pox [This statement is not meant to be derogatory to 21st Century Fox or imply any association or criticism or slander, and is only to be intended to be received as a parody on a common phrase that is currently still in use... No words were harmed in the formation of this pun.]
Get the point? YouTube tries to tell everybody -- but they've done a pretty lousy job of doing it. It's taken me, oh, I guess a year or so to learn to "behave" after wandering through a mire of confusing information from too many different sources -- and even if I am the sole producer of 100% of all the content in the video, I *still* have to place that © and "commit" it; it is *not* taken on faith. I actually had to go back and reread all my licenses and interpret the legalese to figure it out. It would have been simpler if they just put it: Your video is a miniature professional production. Make sure it includes all titling to reflect all participants -- *just like you'd see in a modern major motion picture or a major broadcast television series* -- I think everyone would pretty much understand what that involves. You don't have to get quite that extreme, just cover you bases and your a©©.
I tried to cover it all... but I'm pretty sure I haven't... so... good luck!
*How I won my challenge with an Apple Loops composition:
1) the music, even though using "canned" loops, was an original complex composition (I'll argue theory with anyone about this... it will be based on limited sets and recombinants as well as the theory of instrumentation and timing. In other words - I massage the heck out of loops until they don't sound anything like the originals. I almost never use audio loops -- always MIDI.) [BTW - this was another instance of copyright infringing myself - I had used the same music in a previous video I produced a year or so earlier... when I, like you, thought I was "free" to use the clips as I saw fit.]
2) the music I used in the video was originally created in Logic and I made sure the ID3 tags were filled in with my name and copyright information
3) I have a YouTube Associated Website (think this is a "partner" thing... and google "sanctioned") but if you see it, make sure you associate your domain. [I think you might be able to create a Google+ account and associate a domain that way if it's not part of your YouTube settings.]
4) I uploaded the original mp3 with the ID3 tags to my associated domain.
5) in the challenge, I 1) attached the original mp3 (w/ID3 tags); 2) gave youtube a link to the copy on my associated website for *verification* that the files belonged to ME; (and they already had the URL to the video in question -- a basic 3 point verify.)
It worked. They accepted the verifcation. (And this was the first challenge I've been able to win.) [This was very recent. What about the others? I might get a chance to complete the verifications, but I know for some, I've used up my challenges. The only other option is to pull them and redo them...]
One last word of advice: It does not pay to get "huffy", indignant, or righteous with YouTube in a challenge. They don't care. <-- read that again a lot more slowly... They have their own behinds to take care of — and your video (and/or account) lives (or dies) by their grace. If you read that and infer that I have been those things, then yes, I have... to absolutely no avail... even though I thought I was right (to the best understanding I had at the time) — they have rules. Be respectful. In general, they're pretty relaxed about all this even though it might not look that way to many users. Once you get the rules down, everything goes a lot easier... even if it is a little more work. You have to take responsibility for your own work.

Reconnecting sound clips

I did something a little bit stupid in the my sequence and am wondering if there is a magical little button that will help me out!
I orginally dragged clips into the timeline with the idea that I would be redoing the sound from these clips in post as it is pretty dodgy sound from the camera's mic, and then when editing, unlinked the sound from the video and deleted the sound clips.
I would however, now like to use some of that sound from the original clips and was wondering if there is a way to "reconnect" them to their video clips.
The long way would be to find the IN and OUT points for every single clip again and this is going to take forever as I took mulitple IN/OUT points from the same shot in the viewer when editing, and there would be at least a thousand to go through. Is this my ONLY option??? Bascially, i'd be editing the scene(s) together all over again
Thanks

Put the playhead at the start of the first clip to fix
Hit "F" to match frame
Hit F10 to overwrite edit
Hit the down arrow to move you to the start of the next edit
Rinse and repeat.

Multiple Sound Clips

Simple problem, and I hope there's a simple fix . . . I have
a sound clip running at the start of a Flash presentation. At some
point, I need the first one to stop so I can start the second one.
I know there's a difference between "stream" and "event" and all,
but I'm having no success getting the first one to stop so it
doesn't play over the second one.
Suggestions?

MBKrebs,
> They were audio assets dragged to the timeline.
In that case, think of it like this: Stream sounds are
locked in-step
with the timeline they're in. Let's say you drag an asset
from the Library,
put it in a frame, and configure it as Stream. Let's say the
audio clip is
30 seconds long. Your movie is set for 12fps, so 30 seconds
would require
360 frames to fully play the audio. If your span of frames is
shorter than
that, the audio will stop early. If the playhead stops before
the full span
of frames, the audio will stop earlier (and reconvene when
the playhead
starts again).
If that same audio's entry keyframe is configured as Event,
the sound
only needs a single frame to play. Big difference!
Stream sounds are often used for lip synching, as as for
cartoons.
There's no way to guarantee such tight synching with Event
sounds. The
timeline will play as fast as it can on a given user's
machine, and might
fall out of step with the audio.

> sound clips ? I think I know what I'm doing, but then
> it doesn't seem to work like it's supposed to.
The ActionScript route isn't especially hard, but it differs
based on
what version of ActionScript you're using. If you're
interested in that,
let me know.
Totally aside, your name reminds me of someone I knew, years
ago, in
Manitoba (MB), whose last name was Krebs.

Separate sound clips

Hi,
Does anybody know how to synchronize different sound clips on
a timeline? I have 4 separate images, each image has a separate
sound clip. I'd like to be able to hear the respective sound clip,
each time I click on any of the images. When I place the sound clip
on the same frame with the image, the sound plays, once the image
is being clicked. However, if i click on another image, the first
sound clip does not stop playing.
Thanks in advance.

And here is the project file its self.

Transferring sound clips from 5800 to pc

Does anyone else have a problem with this? First it took me AGES to find where the sound clip was located, only to find it mixed in my music player with the other music. And then when i tried to transfer it through the Nokia Music software to the PC.. it says it was successful but i cant find it anywhere!

Try this:
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. From the Tools menu, choose Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders," make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
5. Click OK.
6. Navigate to the following location by either typing it into the address bar, copying and pasting it into the address bar, or clicking through the folder hierarchy listed:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\
7. Right-click the SC Info folder shown and on the shortcut menu, choose Delete.
8. Restart the computer.
9. Open iTunes.
10. Authorize your computer to play your purchases. Note: If you have multiple accounts you will need to authorize your computer for each account.

Controlling my sound clips

Basically i have 4 buittons within my movie. Each button goes
to a different frame within the timeline. What i want to happen is
when you go to one of the 4 points in the movie it plays a
different sound.
The problem i am having is that when u hit one of the buttons
the sound plays fine. But then when you hit another button the new
sound just plays over the top of the last sound. How can i stop the
previous sound clip playing when you hit a new button?
Thanks in advance

Not sure exactly how you built your movie, but I'm going to
assume that you have placed your sound clips on the timeline. If
so, then on the button code, add the following before the
gotoAndPlay() method:
stopAllSounds();
This will stop the current sound and then go to the frame
where the new sound is queued to play. There are other ways to
incorporate sound using the Sound class, but you need to know a bit
about ActionScript (even though it's not that difficult to learn).
The Sound class will give you a lot more control over your sounds,
so it's advantageous to learn about the Sound class if you are
going to do more than simple manipulation with your sound files...
Good luck,

Movie Clips under mask

I am having difficulty with some movie clips under a mask. I
have a large movie clip with thumbnail photos underneath a mask.
The thumnails slide up and down using a scroll bar that is linked
through action script. When a thumbnail is clicked, it triggers
another movie clip to appear on stage. My first four work, but once
I have to scroll the fifth one into view, the fifth thumbnail
doesn't even register as clickable. Any thoughts?

I removed the mask, and tested the movie after adding a trace
to the fourth thumbnail. It still came up undefined, even after I
used the target feature to call it. Any other thoughts? The fifth
thumbnail also came up undefined. All the thumbnails are labeled
printThumb#_mc, where # is the number of the thumbnail.

Play multiple sound files in different frames from library in flash

My assessment task for college is to create a webpage of my work. So far it runs brilliantly except for this. I only need this to be working in like 2 days! Help!
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Trying to be able to play sound clips from the library with the option to play and stop the sound file. Each sound has its own frame, with stop and play buttons. I can run the first sound file perfectly being able to start and stop it but when trying to play the next sound it creates the above error on output. I have dead buttons as well on the second sound.

Basically I want to play all the sounds, from the library, individually in different frames using the option to play and stop that sound. I found the above script but only works for one sound. I am new at scripting in flash so any help or even a better script option would be awesome. Thank you

The 1009 error indicates that one of the objects being targeted by your code is out of scope. This could mean that the object....
- is declared but not instantiated
- doesn't have an instance name (or the instance name is mispelled)
- does not exist in the frame where that code is trying to talk to it
- is animated into place but is not assigned instance names in every keyframe for it
- is one of two or more consecutive keyframes of the same objects with no name assigned in the preceding frame(s).
If you go into your Publish Settings Flash section and select the option to Permit debugging, your error message should have a line number following the frame number which will help you isolate which object is involved.

Extending keyframes for sound clip

Hi,
I'm using Flash CS4, and I cannot figure out how to extend
the keyframes for a sound clip to run the length of the timeline.
How can I do this with ease in CS4? In previous versions, after you
drop the sound clip onto the stage, it appears in the time line but
stops at a certain keyframe even though the sound clip is much
longer than what's appearing visually. Typically, you click the
last keyframe, hold down and then drag and continue to do so until
your sound line "runs out". CS4 won't let me do that, it skips a
load of frames and then starts up again.
I need to view the entire sound clip on the timeline; how?
Thanks!

Hi
I convert all to
• .aiff 16-bit 48kHz - or -
• .aiff 44.1kHz (Audio-CD) - THIS Especially when needing Audio from iTunes ! ! - as this cut's of the DRM flag which often results in mute DVDs when not excluded.
I do not use any .mp3 or Direct from iTunes as they most often give me problems - but converted to .aiff they work greatly.
