SYNOPSIS

use SWF::SoundStream;
my $soundstream = new SWF::SoundStream("wau.mp3");
print $soundstream->getDuration();
## print $soundstream->getFrames(); # won't work until it belongs to movie
$movie->setSoundStream($soundstream);
print $soundstream->getFrames(); # but _now_ it is okay (but anyway deprecated)

DESCRIPTION

SWF::SoundStream is a helper class useful for adding sound into SWF applications.

METHODS

$soundstream = new SWF::SoundStream($filename)

Creates a SWF::SoundStream object. If the file can't be opened the constructor will return an undef value of course. The filename is the valid name of any mp3 or flv file.

$dura = $soundstream->getDuration()

This function returns the duration of a given stream in ms. Works for streams of mp3, flv types only. On other cases it returns 0.

$frames = $soundstream->getFrames()

Using getFrames() is deprecated, better use getDuration(). getFrames() returns the number of movie frames necessary to play the full sound stream. For this reason it works only if the sound stream object was added to a movie, and also only for streams of mp3 -files.
