Autoplay MP3 Player

[artasia212]

Can someone please help me get autoplay for an mp3player...below is the code I've used...

stop();
// numbers needed for the visuals, you can play around with altering them
const PLOT_HEIGHT:int = 17;
const CHANNEL_LENGTH:int = 95;
// Byte array also needed for the visuals
var bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
// Assign The mp3 to play
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("greatiswhatiam.mp3");
// Boolean value for button functions, to switch in the conditionals
var isPlaying:Boolean = false;
// Create the sound object
var snd:Sound = new Sound(req);
// Assign a var name for the sound channel
var channel:SoundChannel;

// Play Button Listener ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playPause);

/////////////////////////// Start Play button function //////////////////////////////////////////////////////
function playPause(event:MouseEvent):void {

// This conditional makes the magic of our play/pause functionality
if (isPlaying == false) {
channel = snd.play(); // Start playing
isPlaying = true;
}

// Stop button listener and function
stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopSound);

function stopSound(event:MouseEvent):void {
channel.stop();
isPlaying = false;
}

// On playback complete listener and function, needed to reset some things
channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);

function onPlaybackComplete(event:Event) {

isPlaying = false;
//trace("The sound has finished playing.");
}

} /////////////////////////// End Play button function //////////////////////////////////////////////////////



// Add listener to trigger [onEnterFrame] function below, needed for our amplitude animation
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);

function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void {

SoundMixer.computeSpectrum(bytes, false, 0);
var g:Graphics = this.graphics;
g.clear();
g.lineStyle(0, 0xffd200);
g.beginFill(0xffd200, 0.5);
g.moveTo(0, PLOT_HEIGHT);

var n:Number = 0;

// left channel
for (var i:int = 0; i < CHANNEL_LENGTH; i++)
{
n = (bytes.readFloat() * PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.lineTo(i * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT - n);
}
g.lineTo(CHANNEL_LENGTH * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.endFill();

// right channel
g.lineStyle(0, 0x24d011);
g.beginFill(0x24d011, 0.5);
g.moveTo(CHANNEL_LENGTH * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT);

for (i = CHANNEL_LENGTH; i > 0; i--)
{
n = (bytes.readFloat() * PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.lineTo(i * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT - n);
}
g.lineTo(0, PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.endFill();
} // END onEnterFrame Function

OK so after much trial and error I finally got it all by myself....So for anyone out there who may need a solution here is the new code


stop();
// numbers needed for the visuals, you can play around with altering them
const PLOT_HEIGHT:int = 17;
const CHANNEL_LENGTH:int = 95;
// Byte array also needed for the visuals
var bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
// Assign The mp3 to play
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("greatiswhatiam.mp3");
// Boolean value for button functions, to switch in the conditionals
var isPlaying:Boolean = false;
// Create the sound object
var snd:Sound = new Sound(req);
// Assign a var name for the sound channel
var channel:SoundChannel;
// Create the play channel using snd
channel = snd.play(); // Start playing
// Set "isPalying" to true initially
isPlaying = true;


// Stop button listener and function
stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopSound);

function stopSound(event:MouseEvent):void {
channel.stop();
isPlaying = false;
}

// Play Button Listener ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playPause);

/////////////////////////// Start Play button function //////////////////////////////////////////////////////
function playPause(event:MouseEvent):void {

// This conditional makes the magic of our play/pause functionality
if (isPlaying == false) {
channel = snd.play(); // Start playing
isPlaying = true;
}



// On playback complete listener and function, needed to reset some things
channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);

function onPlaybackComplete(event:Event) {

isPlaying = false;
//trace("The sound has finished playing.");
}

} /////////////////////////// End Play button function //////////////////////////////////////////////////////



// Add listener to trigger [onEnterFrame] function below, needed for our amplitude animation
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);

g.beginFill(0xffd200, 0.5);
g.moveTo(0, PLOT_HEIGHT);

var n:Number = 0;

// left channel
for (var i:int = 0; i < CHANNEL_LENGTH; i++)
{
n = (bytes.readFloat() * PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.lineTo(i * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT - n);
}
g.lineTo(CHANNEL_LENGTH * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.endFill();

// right channel
g.lineStyle(0, 0x24d011);
g.beginFill(0x24d011, 0.5);
g.moveTo(CHANNEL_LENGTH * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT);

for (i = CHANNEL_LENGTH; i > 0; i--)
{
n = (bytes.readFloat() * PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.lineTo(i * 2, PLOT_HEIGHT - n);
}
g.lineTo(0, PLOT_HEIGHT);
g.endFill();
} // END onEnterFrame Function
