mp3 load issue **Urgent**

Well, this sucks pretty much…i’m loading a streaming compressed swf file, but it doesnt load when its uploaded on a server, is there anything i could do to make it load and still be compressed?

HELP NEEDED URGENTLY (the site is supposed to be launched today and its already late :frowning: :frowning: :frowning: )

sounds like something in your path, or such- usually swf is in same directory as movie…etc…

did you assign your buttons a variable name containing the swf…for example if you click track 1 it says

like whattrack = track1 ? not proper syntax, just explaining…

then there should be a load function that loads it up

usually with a path url followed by the variable for the actual movie name.

triple check that stuff…

also do you have a link?

if you make a movie and use loadmovie to load that first movie, your sound will play.
one of the great features of flash mx is you cna load that mp3 without using external swf’s

well, i’ve tried it in many ways now, so i am running out of ideas.

First i tried to just drop the mp3 into the first and only frame, it worked offline.

Secondly i tried to load it externally, as another swf, but not even that helped. When i open the swf document online, it says, “Page cannot be displayed”…though everything else works in the movie. I need to have that movie compressed, cuz else the size will be too much!

Third, i tried to use this code in the movie clip:

mySound = new Sound(this); //the sound is placed within a MC
mySound.attachSound(“snd1”);
mySound.start(0,9);

but nada…

snd1 is the linkage name for the mp3.

thx for trying to help me :smiley:

hum…i uploaded it on another server and now the movie partly works…looks like there is some new hope to this…

thank you both, you helped me with getting this far
