How do I stop sound?

[KingKong]

What do I type under frame actions if I want to stop music from playing once I reach a certain frame?

Hi,

Are you using frame sound or loading sound into an object?......

stopAllSounds();

or

mySound.stop(["idName"])

Which is which?
And I'm using frame sound but if you could tell how button sound works that would work much better.

Hi,

stopAllSounds();

will stop all sounds in the movie.

button sound is just putting the sound on the appropriate keyframe in the button.

Object sound takes a bit of actionscript. You need to create a new sound object and then depending on how you want to load it..... either attaching it from the library or using the loadSound method...

mySound = newSound();
mySound.attachSound("soundtrack");
mySound.start();
trace("Soundtrack is " + mySound.duration/1000 + " seconds in length");

This would require the sound to be in your library and exported for actionscript in the first frame with an export name of "soundtrack"

Here is a very nice sound tutorial.......
