hey manish i tried compiling your code but it is not working...The swf file is of only 2 KB...please help

I guess you're compiling SoundPlayer.as by itself. SoundPlayer is a component, not an application. To see it working, you'll have to write a small test application, like so:

Manish,

This is a great component. I got everything working except I cannot programatically change the source for the soundplayer at soundComplete event. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

I had the same problem, and I found a fix. In the bounceEvent method, I moved the call to dispatchEvent to after the call to the stop method. That way it stops the sound when it reaches the end, and then calls the soundComplete event instead of dispatching the event and stoping right after you just loaded a new sound.

Excuse me for my English, Whether can this component show ID3 Tags? Also maybe do you know how to display cover artwork mp3 file?
