Can't make playback listeners works.

SOUND_PLAY, SOUND_PAUSE etc. just don't shoot

import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.events.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import com.greensock.plugins.*;
import com.greensock.loading.*;
import com.greensock.loading.display.*;

var queue:LoaderMax = new LoaderMax({name:"mainQueue", onComplete:completeHandler, onError:errorHandler});
var sound:MP3Loader = new MP3Loader("test.mp3", {name:"audio", autoPlay:true, estimatedBytes:950000});
queue.append(sound);
queue.load();

function completeHandler(event:LoaderEvent) {
    sound.addEventListener(MP3Loader.SOUND_PLAY, soundStart);
    sound.addEventListener(MP3Loader.SOUND_PAUSE, soundPause);
}

function soundStart(event:LoaderEvent) {
    trace("> Start");
}

function soundPause(event:LoaderEvent) {
    trace("> Pause");
}

function errorHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void {
    trace("error occured with " + event.target + ": " + event.text);
}

Hi

 

It appears you are waiting for the sound to complete loading until you assign your eventListeners. Since you have autoPlay:true, your sound will start playing before it is fully downloaded. 

 

• autoPlay : Boolean - By default the MP3 will begin playing immediately when enough of the file has buffered, but to prevent it from autoPlaying, set autoPlay to false.

 

Try this

//take these out of the completeHandler
sound.addEventListener(MP3Loader.SOUND_PLAY, soundStart);
sound.addEventListener(MP3Loader.SOUND_PAUSE, soundPause);

function completeHandler(event:LoaderEvent) {
  trace("> done loading");   
}


function soundStart(event:LoaderEvent) {
    trace("> Start");
}


function soundPause(event:LoaderEvent) {
    trace("> Pause");
}


function errorHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void {
    trace("error occured with " + event.target + ": " + event.text);
}

Yep, that works
