Re: [Swftools-common] weird issue when loading external SWF

[Pablo Rodríguez]

Replying to myself, thanks to 
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=123830.

It seems that the audio object should be created using "new Sound(this)" 
instead of "new Sound ()" so that the audio from the external file can 
be recognized by the loader.

Just in case it might be useful for future reference. Thanks anyway,


Pablo
