Hi All, I am trying to preload an external MP3 without playback starting immediately. The reason I am doing this is because I am allowing the EU to resume a previous media playback session and I want to start playback at a predetermined position. I have found that if I call sound.play( position ) before the song is loaded errors are thrown, so now I added code to my sounds Event.Complete listener function to initiate playback at the specified position but, the sound starts playing as soon as it is loaded and I hear a couple seconds from the beginning of the song before the Complete event is dispatched and I call sound.play(position).
>From the Sound API doc's what I need is to just load the song and once loaded start playback at the position with the following code, but it is not working: sound = new Sound(); sound.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, onSongLoaded ); sound.load( new URLRequest( mediaSource.href ) ); function onSongLoaded(event:Event):void { sound.play(someposition); } How can I preload the song without playback starting at the begining of the song as soon as loading completes? Any help much appreciated. Greg
