Controlling sound from separate class

1

Hey,

Is it possible to start and stop a sound file from a separate class?

In the first class, “House”, I have called the MP3 using the following:


public var mySoundReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("tune.mp3");
public var mySound:Sound = new Sound(); 

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, playSong);

public function playSong(event:Event):void
	{
		mySound.load(mySoundReq);
		mySound.play(1,100);
		stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, playSong);
	}

I want to be able to stop and start the music from another class called “Door.as”

I tried:


...

private var _house_mc:MovieClip;

...

_house_mc = parent.getChildByName("house_mc") as MovieClip;

...

_house_mc.mySound.stop();

I get the error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property stop not found on flash.media.Sound and there is no default value. at Door/control_sound_fnt()

Any advice/suggestions?

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:
