Sound with animation build ins

Does anyone know if there's a way to pair a brief sound with an animation build in?

Welcome to the Forum.
Import the audio clip into the slide and select it, then open the Build menu and select "Start audio." Next, create your animation Build. Once both elements are in the Builds List ("More Options") simply assign the audio to play "Automatically With" the animation Build (or vice versa).
Good luck.

IPhone sdk: sync sound with animations

Hi,
I am sure this is a very basic question. I would appreciate if someone can point me to the right directions.
I want to play a sound (say a song) and then perform an animation based on the beat of the sound. I guess it would be similar to creating visualizations that many media players have.
I would speculate I need to get notifications from the playback when sound pattern detects a beat and then drive animation absed on these events.
What classes/samples should I be looking for?
Thanks

Be sure to plug the iPhone into a USB port on the computer, preferably in the back of the Mac Pro, and not to an external hub or keyboard port.

Synchronize a sound with animation

Hi,
I've just learned this process in the Flash CS4 help manual (page 276), but unfortunately the sound track I placed in a movie clip timeline (used as a button OVER state) doesn't stop playing once I mouse away from the button. So, I presume a simple myBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, clickHandler) could allow me to execute a method in a function to stop the repeating sound. Any ideas which method to use (considering that I have a main timeline sound track set as "start" synchronization that I want to keep running non-stop)?
Regards,
Ronald

Actually, I've discovered (via testing) that Sync does a better job at Start and Stop in my situation.
A google search tells me that what I'm trying to do does not work as described in the user manual. Call this a bug, I suppose.
I may try to do this in AS3 alone, once I'm through reading and understanding the programming manual.
Regards,
Ron

Synchronizing sound and animation

Hi All..
I have an animation of a swinging sign that is accompanied by a squeaking/swinging sound that is loaded externaly.. What I would like to do is go a step further and synchrinize the sound with the swinging sign.. Can someone please point me in a direction of where I should look? I've seen some tutorials about synking imported sound with animation - but is there a way to also synk an external sound? Thanks so much ahead of time!

you can't sync a loaded sound and animation unless you load your sound BEFORE your animation appears. or, at least, before the part of the animation that needs sound appears.
so, either don't load a sound that needs to be sync'd or use code to ensure loading is complete before the corresponding animation is displayed.

Sound effects for animated builds

I'm using Keynote 6.2.2 on a 2013 15 inch MBP with retina display running the latest Mavericks. I am trying to apply some sound effects (from the Garageband library, converted to MP3 format) to animated builds - specifically, the sound of a typewriter applied to text using the Typewriter build, and a crashing sound applied to an image using the Anvil effect.
I have searched the web, these support forums, Keynote help, and tried all the manipulations of the Build Order that I can think of, but whatever I do I cannot get the sound to actually play during the build. It will play if I click on the icon on the slide, but not as part of the build. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there some simple setting I am missing? Is this a known issue in Keynote 6?
Any help appreciated...thanks...John

To make the animated builds work correctly with the sound effects and build in the correct sequence, I had to use the Build Order panel to place the sound effect before (above) the build object, then adjust the timings to make it all hang together.
Every time I placed the sound after the build object the build sequence went askew and everything seemed to build at once, ignoring the sequencing in the Build Order panel.
cheers...john

External Usb Audio Card Popping and Cracking sound with Satellite L500

Greetings,
My name is Boyan and I am from Bulgaria and about an year ago I've bought a satellite laptop from the l500 series ( i can not state which exactly is the model at the moment because my computer is not currently with me and on my user manual the only thing which is stated is that it is for L500/L505/ L500D / L505D . But by memory I think it was the Satellite L500D-ST5506 which is currently not at my dispossal because I gave it for repair for the same problem which I will state down below)
The problem with my laptop is that when I plug a Usb Audio card in my laptop I have a cracking sound when live sound is played trough the speakers/headphones from the external card. I've tried numerous audio cards and speakers/headpohnes which work perfectly fine with other computer, including laptops but the same problem keeps on showing up in the headphones/speakers of my laptop when I am using an external audio card to connect them to the laptop.
The problem is prominent only when the sound signal passes trough an external audio card and it is very annyoing since I use my laptop to create music and i've bought an expenssive audio card and speakers which can not be used with the laptop. I've tried 3 models of audio cards:
M-Audio Fast Track Pro
Behringer uca 222
and a simple external 3d sound usb audio card and the problem still appears.
At first I thought that the problem should be software and I should install new drivers although windows 7 automaticaly recognizes and intalls the drivers for the devices and I have sound in them (but with cracks and popps) so i tried using the official drivers sold to me with the audio cards but with no luck: The problem was still there. I tried finding new drivers of the audio cards on the official distributors websited and i've downloaded them but the problem was still there. Then i tried to delete every audio driver on my computer and just use the external audio card for sound but this dint help eighter. I've updated my drivers for my build-in audio card as well but again - no luck.
After that.the frist thing I did when (2 weeks after i bought the laptop) was to contact the store from which i bought my audio card and they stated that the problem may be eighter latency or high voltage from the laptop so they adviced me to try to lower the latency from the settings or to try and see if the problem remains if my laptop is only running on battery. I've tried both things and they didn't help. The audio cards worked without a problem on every other computer I've tried them on except mine. So they said to me that the problem couldnt possibly be from the audio cards .
What I did next was I gave my laptop to the official distributor of toshiba in my country so they can fix my problem. What they said to me was that the problem is caused from the version of windows which was pre-installed on my laptop and that it wasnt compitable with the audio cards (which was bizzar sounding because I've tried them on the same windows and they've worked, just on other computers). So I got back my laptop and changed my operating sistem from Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 32bit and on all of those versions the problem was there: whenever I activate a Usb Audio Card and audio signal passes trough it I heard cracks and popps. I even tried isntalling Windows XP but the laptop wants spesific SATA drivers for the installation of Windows XP which although i did find - they didnt help me install XP and I didn't want to go in to the BIOS of the computer to try to put a new one and so on because I am not so sure about that and I could lose my warranty so I said to the official repair store for Toshiba in my town to put XP on my computer to fix the problem but they can't because they are not liscened to operate with software which doesn't have a recipt for its purchase ( which i didnt because i bought my windows xp long ago and i've lost the recipt)
I gave it for repair for the second time telling them that the change of my operating system did not solve my problem and what they did was they changed the whole motherboard on my computer, stating that the build in realtek audio device on my computer is not good enough to support an usb audio card or it maybe broken and they have to change the whole motherboard because the build in card is glued to it, so they did that but my problem wasn't solved. They told me that although I am using and external usb audio card the signal still passes trough my internal one and I have to disable it so i tried disabling it trough the control panel but this did not solve the problem and i do not have an option from BIOS to disable my build-in audio card. Another thing which I thought maybe causing the problem is that the two audio cards aren't working on the same bit rate and Hertz so I set both cards to 16 bit 48000hz DVD Quality (Also tried other options on the 3 cards i have) but...the same thing happend.
They told me that this is just my luck and that the build in audio card doesn't support this external audio cards and I should had been more careful when choosing my laptop at first.
I couldn't accept this awnser for several reasons:
1) This audio cards work on lower version of windows and are supported by much older models of Realtek and much older computers (one of them was bought 2000!!!!! and my laptop is from 2010!!)
2) The guys who were fixing the problem apperantley didn't go in so deep in to my problem because they didn't know what actually the problem was they just knew that there is a problem with the audio card and the computer interacting with eachother, they didnt know that there is cracking during live play from the external audio card.
3) I can not accept the fact that Toshiba is manufacturing models with chipset audio cards which can not support a simple external Usb Audio Card. This is totally unacceptable for me and I truly hope this is not the case!
4)They didn't try my audiocards on an other laptop from the same series stating that they do not have one at their dispossal at the moment so I will go tomorrow to a local store and try the audio cards by my self on the same computer in the store.
What I did now was I gave back my laptop for repair asking for a statement of the problem in wrtting with all details of the problem so I can go to court or ask for a new laptop but I will be charged with some money because according to them there is no problem in the laptop and the problem is that my external audio cards arent compitable with the build in internal chipset audio card. If I give my laptop for repair and there is no hardware problem I will have to pay some money. I will do this but I am now mad, since this will not solve my problem and I am loosing time and money.
What I am asking here is, if you can not help me solve my problem and advice me what to do to fix it, please provide me the details of the chipset build in audiocard on my motherboard, so i can investigate if it is compitable with my external audio cards and contact the audio card dealers to ask them for their opinion. Or if you can tell me with what it is compitable with and with what not, it would be great. I personally think that this laptop should have no problems at all with running a simple external usb audio card but I am asking you, if you know something more about that.
If the problem is from the build in chipset then Toshiba is manufacturing (or at least selling) audiocards which aren't at a normal standart but sadly I cant do nothing about it except complain to Toshiba and never deal whith such productgs anymore. In the other case if this is not true, then my laptop has a problem which is different and I will have to go to court with the repair mans for not fixing my laptop or not giving a new one when I have warranty which will not be Toshiba's fault and It will in a way solve my problem.
I hope you understand how Important this is for me and I hope I resolve the problem as soon as possible.
P.S
I would like to state that I am well aware of the grammar mistakes I have made in the text below and I would like to ask for your apologies as I am not a native English language speaker.

hi i just like to say i had a similar fault though i would be surprised if it causing yours,but you never know,my fault was my laptop lid, [9 months old] it contains the mic ,and when the lid was in a certain angle crackles could be heard worse when i had my external sound card in, it was a faulty membrane [ lid to body] easily missed by engineer because it was the same angle all the time it happened,good luck, PS you English is very good

Tutorial for creating a J2EE project with "Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 " ?

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a Flex environment with:
Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 stand alone
WTP (from eclipse update manager)
LCDS 2.5 (with JRun)
JBoss 4.2.2GA
At this moment I successful installed everything (but not set up). I added WTP at Flex Builder3 (with the eclipse update manager). I copied the two flex-tomcat files in jboss.
Then in Flex Builder 3 I created a new Flex Project. In the wizard first window, I selected J2EE, Livecycle and WTP. Then in the next window I need to configurate the J2EE server.
I couldn't find any information/tutorial for this window? Is there a tutorial for this?
This window ask me:
Target Runtime: I created a new one for JBoss 4.2.2 (during this process flex builder asked me to add a project but actually I'm creating this project so I hadn't any project to add (??)).
ContextRoot: name of the project I'm creating (default). Is it good?
Content Folder: the default is "WebContent". Is it good?
Flex War File: What is that? Where do I find it?
Thanks a lot,
Jerome

The settings you mention all sound fine, but the I believe the Flex War file may be what you referred to as the flex-tomcat files (specifically the one should be called flex.war from the install folder).
You don't need to deploy the flex.war file to JBoss manually, when you create a project, you just select the file in the wizard and it is extracted and used as a template for the new project. In fact, it may cause a port conflict with your project if you do deploy manually it (unless you tweak some of the config files), so it's probably worth removing it from the deploy folder if you did put it there. The other file, flex-admin.war, can stay without causing issue.
The closest to a tutorial that I am aware of is if you search "New Flex Project" in the help system, it talks about what each of the options should be when creating LCDS projects.

Can i use flash for ui and interact with c++ builder for the rest

i know flash can be used in c# in visual studio but i dont remember a thing of this interaction.
is it possible to interact with c++ builder and how?
the scenario is simple
use flash for UI (showing-viewing data) maybe for a kiosk or something without mouse simply with touch input,
use c++ builder for the rest , database connection data proccessing etc
any info will be greatly appreciated
thanks

I would advise proper punctuation and grammar on a public forum, but to answer your questions, yes, yes you can! Flash can be used to produce any commercial imagery or animations for the purpose of making profit, as long as you have a valid license you purchased from Adobe. You bought it, you can use it for whatever you want.
By "book", I assume you mean the "tutorial" book series made by Adobe? If so, the name of the series is "Classroom in a Book", there's one for each versions of Flash. Personally it hasn't been of much use and I would advise simply practicing by yourself and getting familiar with the tools. Look for online tutorials and publicly available projects and see how they work.

How to save expression together with animation preset?

I am trying to understand expressions and animation presets.
I have one single slider control, which controls the opacity of a layer, where the value is the slider value + slightly changed using an expression.
I can save the slider control as an animation preset, but the expression gets lost.
Yes, this is so basic that it can be, this is the way I like to learn. And as far as I know, expressions can be saved together with animation presets. I hope someone can tell me how!

The reason that the expression is not removed when you delete the slider is that the expression is only reading the slider value, the slider doesn't know that the expression is there. There's no reverse link.
You can build more professional effects but that involves editing the xml file that tells AE what effects are applied. This still would not generate a reverse link to an expression.
Enabling or disabling an effect only changes the way things are rendered. If you have keyframes on a Lens Flair Brightness and you disable the effect the Lens Flair will not render but the keyframe values will still be available to an expression. Again, there's no reverse link. Since an expression slider does not make a change in the pixel values of a layer turning the FX switch on or off will have no effect on an expression reading the value.
The "trick" in creating an Animation Preset that uses expressions and is removed with the "effect" is removed from the Effects Control Window is to only write expressions for properties that are available in the effects used. You could do this by applying the Transform Effect, or the Levels Individual Controls Effect, or the CC Composite Effect to the layer and writing the expression there instead of placing your expression in the Layer's opacity property. Take a look at this screenshot.

How to setup headphone with in-build microphone in hp 15 r-022tx

HI @Rajatsharma_yam ,
Thank you for your inquiry, I will do my best to assist you.
I grasp that when you connect your combo headphones and mic the mic portion is not working.
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to ensure you have the latest HP drivers installed.
If you look at the physical connector how may bands do you see on it? You should have 3 or 4 bands.
Are you sure they are connected all the way into the headset and the port on the notebook.
When you have the combo headset connected go to control panel/sound and open the Window.
Click on the recording tab, is the mic listed? You should be able to select and configure from this Window.
Here is a link to Resolving headphones and headset problems (Windows 8) that may also be of aid.
Good Luck!

Cannot record any sound with my M-Audio Fast Track Ultra audio interface

Have been using Logic for about 3 months and was able (primarily via keyboards/midi recording) to create some decent recordings (via the 'hard' way, some books, video training and without bothering a lot of people with many of my questions). Time has come to start with analog audio recording and here my problem starts. Have recently purchased the Fast Track Ultra audio interface from M-Audio.
Drivers are installed correctly. The device is saying that it functions properly. It gets recognized by my iMAC. It gets recognized in Logic and can enable the device in my audio preferences. I can clearly see in the control panel of my USB audio interface it is creating sound and meters are going up and down.
I get sound in my head phones (which are connected to the audio interface) but within Logic no sound is coming in while with the build in microphone everything seems to work fine. Have played around all kind of settings in my audio/midi configuration utility but no result.
Who can help me out ?
Thanks in advance.
Jozef.

Have done a test within Garageband and it works correctly overthere

No Sound with QuickTime 7.0.4 video streams on Intel

I just ran the latest QuickTime software update (7.0.4 Pro) and now I get no sound when viewing streaming video. This only happens on my MacBook Pro. None of the PowerPC-based Macs that I've tried experience this issue. Any suggestions on troubleshooting this? Is there a way I can go back to 7.0.3?
Since updating to QuickTime 7.0.4, Real Player 10.0.0 has also lost its sound with streaming videos. I've also tried VLC (0.8.4 & the latest Intel build) but it isn't working properly on the MacBook yet.

IOS/AIR Running and Debugging Issues with Flash Builder

I'm having very frustrating intermittent issues running and debugging Flex applications on an iPad 3rd generation retina with Flash Builder 4.7.
Until this morning, launching on device using both standard and fast packaging worked pretty well. Every now and again, I'd get a dialog saying the packaging had completed successfully, but it hadn't. A quick change of the USB cable to another port on my iMac and it started working again. I'd also randomly get a "Error occurred while installing the application: Invalid <device> specified" error, which quickly went away.
This morning, with the same code base, the same certificate and provisioning profiles, Flash Builder has only managed to successfully package and run my application on my iPad twice and I must have attempted to launch fifty or so times. Standard packaging, fast packaging and with and without the useLegacyAOT.
Does this sound like a Flash Builder issue? Is my iMac USB driver dodgy? Has anybody else experienced this?
Any help greatly welcomed!
Thanks,
Simon

Hi I have had this problem sometimes. With my Mac Book Pro.
Try making a new flex application and see if you have the same result.
When I had this problem I created a new Application and copied every thing from my other application.
This my be a hard solution but I don't no any others.

No sound with Firefox. PC sound is OK. DVD's play sound fine. Firefox stopped.

There is no sound with Firefox 5.0.1 or prior version (updated Firefox in attempt to fix). PC sound work fine. Play Solitaire, sound OK. Play DVD, sound is OK. Not in Firefox. Uninstalled and reinstalled Flash (twice) to no avail. Firefox says all plug ins are up to date.

Hi there,
UPDATE2:
Apparently using another Firefox profile the plugin-container.exe process is no longer take too much memory. However I'm currently seeing a little increase in using resources like threads and memory allocated.
It seems to me that the plugin-container.exe process and plugins installed don't work very well together. Sometimes the firefox.exe process still exists even when I had exited from the main menu (Exit).
Hoever I'm not going to continue this "test" since it is going to take too much time for me.
This thread could be intended as closed for me.
Thanks Chris.

Unable to backward while synchonize audio with animation.

Hi there,
Is anyone facing the problem which when you doing the audio synchonize with animation. I make mistake(animation appear wrong timing), with presenter 6, we just pause and move the slider backward to the newly appear animation willl disappear in order to redo it. But In presenter 7, backward of the slider nothing will happen.
This problem very waste of time when you trying to synchonize more than 20 animation with 5mins above of video for each slide.
Please aid me on this problem.
THanks~!

What you want/need is “Use audio for synchronization.” ...
