Hi there , i try to add a MP3 to my animation and I try to make it long, but it always is cut, or interupted in places by the keys…(Sorry I am n00b) And can I cut MP3’s right in flash? If not, know any good Mp3 modding tools?  
thanks…!

not sure what you mean by ‘cut by the keys’ but it sounds like you’re having problems w. streaming the file–you need to test some things like:  
mySound.attachSound(“song1.mp3”, false);  
mySound.start();

this sets streaming to false, which means the whole mp3 loads before it begins–this means a delay in playing, but it may get rid of your probem–also, set it to ‘true’ and see what happens.

basically, there are always issues w. streaming sounds from a server, and you need to fiddle around to get things set right–this includes finding/using the proper Flash sound object methods  
good luck,
