Add a streaming sound

You can include sound in your movie by dragging the sound to the Stage. You'll add background music that streams and plays for a specified number of times.

2 | Choose File > Import. Within your Flash MX application folder, browse to Tutorials/FlashIntro/Assets and click track1.mp3. Control-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) to add ping.mp3 to the selection, then click Open.
| The files are imported into the library.
3 | With the Sounds layer selected, drag the track1.mp3 sound from the Library panel to the Stage.

4 | In the Timeline, select the first frame of the Sounds layer. In the Property inspector, type 999 in the Loop text box to specify the number of times the sound can play continuously.
