Hi,

I have a sound problem. I have a flash (swf) file loaded within another flash (my main swf).  
I want to mute all the loaded swf sounds. I successfully muted “timeline” sounds (with the soundTransform of the loader object) but my issue is with runtime played sounds.

If the sound is played using actionscript (and not manually droped on the stage using flash and the timeline), soundTransform won’t apply.

I think I can’t use SoundMixer since it would mute my main SWF sound too.

I’ve been working on this for a week and I would gladly appreciate your help.

Thank you!
