  1. POWhat's wrong in my AS3 code for a Play Pause button in a flash music player?
    text
    copied!<p>I'm trying to make a simple music player with only one button for Play &amp; Pause the music. What I have now is a MovieClip with:</p> <ul> <li>1st Keyframe: active state for play Button</li> <li>2nd Keyframe: active state for pause button</li> <li>3rd Keyframe: hover state for play button</li> <li>4th Keyframe: hover state for pause button</li> </ul> <p>The script works OK, and play and pause the music without problems as expected.</p> <p>The problem comes after the second click in the play/pause button when the alternance between two states becomes chaotic. The button never returns to the play state although the music was paused.</p> <p>¿Any idea? I'm really getting mad with this. Thanks in advance!</p> <p>This is the code:</p> <pre><code> /**** Objects and Vars ****/ var AutoPlay:Boolean = false; var isPlaying:Boolean = false; var pausePosition:Number = 0; var snd:Sound = new Sound(); //Instantiation var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("files/celebrate.mp3"); var status_text:String = ''; /**** Load Files ****/ snd.load(req); var channel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel(); if(AutoPlay == true) { channel = snd.play(pausePosition); isPlaying = true; play_btn.gotoAndStop(2); status_text = "The song is now playing..."; channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete); } function onPlaybackComplete(event:Event):void { isPlaying = false; status_text = "The song is over"; pausePosition = 0; } /******* Listeners ******/ play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playSound); checkPlaying(); function playSound(evt:MouseEvent):void { if(isPlaying == false) { channel = snd.play(pausePosition); isPlaying = true; play_btn.gotoAndStop(2); status_text = "The song is now playing..."; channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete); checkPlaying(); } else { pausePosition = channel.position; channel.stop(); isPlaying = false; play_btn.gotoAndStop(1); status_text = "The song is now paused"; } } function checkPlaying(){ if(isPlaying == false){ removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverImagePause); removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutImagePause); play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverImagePlay); play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutImagePlay); } if (isPlaying == true){ removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverImagePlay); removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutImagePlay); play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverImagePause); play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutImagePause); } } function mouseOverImagePlay(evt:MouseEvent):void { play_btn.gotoAndStop(3); } function mouseOverImagePause(evt:MouseEvent):void { play_btn.gotoAndStop(4); } function mouseOutImagePlay(evt:MouseEvent):void { play_btn.gotoAndStop(1); } function mouseOutImagePause(evt:MouseEvent):void { play_btn.gotoAndStop(2); } </code></pre>
