Sorry,

How would I go about this? I'm really strugling with it and nothing in the docs seems to help!

Many thanks,

Rich

On your existing volume controller, save the volume as a global, for
example, gVolume

Then on the QT sprite, add this:

global gVolume

on beginSprite me
sprite(me.spriteNum).volume=gVolume
end


If the volume controller is on the same frame as the QT sprite, and you
need for it to adjust the volume "live", then add this:

on enterFrame me
sprite(me.spriteNum).volume=gVolume
end

Oh I see. How do you save the existing volume as a global? At the moment I'm using a script from the Director library on the volume fader so I don't know in depth how it works.

Thanks.

If you mean the Channel Volume Slider" behaviour, then you need to add
this at the top:

global gVolume


Then, in prepareFrame, put this right before the end:

gVolume=pLastVol

That should do it. If it is possible to get to the movie before the
volume slider, then you can add this to the script I sent before to
avoid errors:

on beginSprite me
if voidP(gVolume) then gVolume=255

Feel free to change that 255 to whatever your default volume should be.
