			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have run across problems with Flash and audio exporting to MP3 you have come to the right place. Sadly I have become and expert in this over the past couple of weeks.</p>
<p>The easy fix is of course to upgrade your Flash player. Since the Flash player in IE, Safari and FF for Mac all seem to be fine. But for PC it seems to be a vexing problem.</p>
<p>This audio problem should not be confused with the dreaded PC audio not playing at all problem which is basically all your find when you look for this topic.</p>
<p><a href="http://fuzzyraygun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/protools.png"><img src="http://fuzzyraygun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/protools.png" alt="" title="protools" width="261" height="117" class="alignright size-full wp-image-908" align="right" /></a>This problem stems from bad AIF or WAV files and continues through Flash CS4 right through to the output stage. An easy fix for this problem is to bring your MP3 compression export to 56kbps or below, but for those of us who like sound this is just not gonna do it. You can see what might be the cause of this audio problem, by the fact that this info panel for a piece of audio has an author of &#8220;Pro Tools&#8221;. In my case all the other audio was fine except for these files which had an author of pro tools.</p>
<p>The first thing to do is to redo the audio files.</p>
<p>1. Open them in your audio program (Soundforge, Soundtrack pro, etc..) and copy and paste the audio into a new file and save it as new file.<br />
2. Delete the audio that is in your Flash file and re-import the new sound files and place them in your timeline, actionscript etc..<br />
3. Goto &#8220;publish Settings&#8221; and set your MP3 Kbps setting to 80 or above for better sound settings.<br />
4. uncheck the &#8220;compress movie&#8221; setting just to make sure they is no more compression taking place<br />
5. Republish your SWF</p>
<p>This has worked for me, but it might not solve all your problems.</p>
<p>Good luck</p>

A surprising thing I noticed was how it rendered color compared with FireFox and Safari. Looked around and haven&#8217;t found an explanation for this color shift yet. There was a small bug report about it <a href="http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24725">here.</a><br />
<a href="http://fuzzyraygun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/google-Chrome-color.png"><img src="http://fuzzyraygun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/google-Chrome-color-128x300.png" alt="" title="Google Chrome Color Weirdness" width="128" height="300" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-901" /></a></p>
<p>Turns out this is more a problem of color correction and Google Chrome than just a Chrome issue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Found a great utility to help with little chores like this in Flash.</p>
<p><a href="http://casalib.org/">http://casalib.org/</a> has made a nice Flash framework that you can use for AS 2.0 or 3.0 to do lots of stuff. Great DOCs section of the site as well that shows how each function works.</p>
<p>I used the NumberUtil.format function to add leading zeros to a variable that I was outputting to a text box and it was as easy as pie. Unpack the ZIP file that you can download from the site and put the &#8220;org&#8221; folder that is inside the code folder in the same directory as your Flash file (fla).</p>
<p>import that class at the head of your actionscript</p>
<p><code>import org.casalib.util.NumberUtil;</code></p>
<p>Next use this trace command as a guide on how the NumberUtil.format command works.</p>
<p><code>trace(NumberUtil.format(1234567, 8, ",")); // Traces 01,234,567</code></p>
<p>Mine worked something like this. I didn&#8217;t need the commas to separate the numbers I just needed the leading zeros. This turned my original number that was something like this 5045345 to this 005045345.</p>
<p><code>tf.text = NumberUtil.format(tf.text, 9);</code></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Horsefeathers play from the stereo and I tend the stove<br />
The high speed tum tum comes from your sewing machine as diapers are made<br />
The whines for more potato snacks as the heat from the kitchen dissipates<br />
The dryer hums, the heater whirs and the fire crackles<br />
I love all of these sounds of our home<br />
Each one in rhythm and time<br />
At night the silence is deafening and brings fitful sleep until our bundle arrives<br />
We are outlaws laying low so the heat can pass.<br />
We know it never will.</p>
