Re: FLASH: sound loop question

[Dave Hollinden]

Yes, you should.  


If you set the sync parameter to Start, then the sound file will start

looping unless it happens to be playing already.   This is a safeguard

against more than one instance of the sound file being played

simultaneously.  


If you set the sync parameter to Event, the sound file will start playing

even if another instance of it is already playing.  This is useful for

sound effects in games where you want to hear a laser beam or whatever over

and over.
