pause
Version 1pause - halts playback or resumes halted point
Description
Number pause ( )pause() is a dual-purpose function. If the song is currently playing it will halt playback and save the position in a private variable. If the song is already in a pause state, if pause() is triggered it will read the paused position and begin playback at that point.
Example:
If you are using the Mp3Jukebox as a background music player for your site but want to use sound in another area of the site, you can have a button call your new project and pause the current music so that it may be resumed when the user returns to the main site.
//Construct player and load playlist
var player:Mp3Jukebox = new Mp3Jukebox("playlist.xml");
//Open a new project and pause the Mp3Jukebox
openViewer.onRelease = function()
{
openMovieViewer("someMovie");
player.pause();
}
//Close the project and resume playback of the Mp3Jukebox
closeViewer.onRelease = function()
{
closeMovieViewer("someMovie");
player.pause();
}
var player:Mp3Jukebox = new Mp3Jukebox("playlist.xml");
//Open a new project and pause the Mp3Jukebox
openViewer.onRelease = function()
{
openMovieViewer("someMovie");
player.pause();
}
//Close the project and resume playback of the Mp3Jukebox
closeViewer.onRelease = function()
{
closeMovieViewer("someMovie");
player.pause();
}
