Hi John,
Yes, I have a couple apps out their on iPad. One specifically does indeed
play external mp3s loaded from a sub directory. It also records and plays
back wavs.
All doable.
I haven't responded because I did the last one approximately 10 months ago
and really don't recall the details. I do vaguely remember some hurdles,
but I think most of the struggle revolved around recording sounds.
I just found where I loaded the mp3 - perhaps this helps?
public static function playMP3File(sound_id:String):void
{
var existFile:File = File.applicationDirectory .resolvePath("mp3s/sound_" +
sound_id + ".mp3");
if(existFile.exists)
{
sound_playing = true;
existFile.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onfileOpenLoad);
existFile.load();
function onfileOpenLoad(evt:Event):void
{
existFile.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onfileOpenLoad);
var song:Sound = new Sound()
song.load(new URLRequest(existFile.url));//nativePath
mp3channel = song.play();
mp3channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE,
doSoundComplete);
}
function doSoundComplete(e:Event):void
{
mp3channel.removeEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, doSoundComplete);
sound_playing = false;
}
}
}
