Would it be possible for someone to show me how to create a flash presentation whereby my screen (whatever dimensions i set) would display 10 different thumbnails (big enough to be ligible) but I would then be able to click on any one of the images and the mp3 tracks of that particular thumbnail (album cover) would then start to play ?
I saw something like this many years ago on a beatles collection but have never been able to get my hands on it.
I’m sure you guys with your wealth of knowledge with flash can whip up or offer me a tutorial that will give me the result i’m looking for.
many thanx in advance,
oops…forgot to mention that the mp3 files would be on a cd.
Mike…=)
search the forums for the sound object
i searched as u instructed friend but saw nothing that might help me…please take into account that i am also a “newbie”…:((
Mike.
ok here’s a short and brief tutorial.
lay out your 10 thumbnails, and convert them to buttons.
import your sound:
file >> import
go to your library and right click on the first mp3. go to linkage:
give it the name sound1 and check the first and last checkboxes.
go to your timeline:
create a new layer for your actions. give frame 1 these actionsL
mySound = new Sound();
mySound.attachSound(“sound1”);
mySound.start(0,999):
your first sound should now play
if you dont want your sound to start automatically then just leave out the last line of code.
give your first thumbnail these actions:
on(release){
mySound.start(0,999);
}
now u must repeat these steps for all buttons. to disable sounds when u click another button give your button these actions:
on(release){
mySound.stop();
}
ok well it’s late and im tired but u should be ok, repost if you have problems
many many thanx friend…
really appreciate the help here.
i will do as u instructed.
is there any way it can be made to play the whole album maybe at random ? or if i choose to click on a different album it will stop the current song and move to the next album because this would be superb if it was possible?
thanx again for the help.
Mike…
