Loading external layered audio swf

programming flash
1

Attempting to add a 30 sec. audio swf into an existing fla scene which begins after a preloader. It’s an animated intro which should just play when ani begins. I am not to concern about syncing but upon loading (_root.loadMovie(“introsong.swf”, 1); I get a white stage while the music plays. I know this must be something in the way I set up my frames. Can’t see through the forest. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,
Gazzer

Thanks you two for your willingness to help. The hardest part of the forum is getting at least a reply. Kirupa forums has the best set of dedicated Flash aficionados and I always get a reply.

I did figure it out though. What I did was to use the new emptyMC AS in MX2004 and placed this into the first frame of the “actions” layer:

_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”,1);
container.loadMovie(“introsong.swf”);

In the last frame of the entire movie I put:

stop();

It pulls up the swf of a compilation of audio layers. The original fla is 8.1MB but the swf is only 76K. Hopes this helps others.

Thanks again,
Gazzer
