Audio Request
« on: June 30, 2009, 07:44:14 pm »
I have DWJukebox set up to run if I hit a button (external application)... and when I do,  I'd like to play a sound file.... is that possible currently?  Ideally I'd like for another sound file to be played upon return from the external application... possible?

Also,  any way to play a specific sound file right when the front end appears (but after the intro video)?

Thanks!

EDIT: I noticed that there is a plug-in that will allow me to play a specific sound file at start up... however I don't see a way to play a sound file when dropping to an external application (and upon return).  Would that be something easily implemented?

Unfortunately the plug-in work around failed.  Instead of playing the wav after my intro animation just as the front end pops up,  it plays at the same time as the animation...which won't work since the animation has it's own sounds.

Bummer...so I am back to square one...

Add some blank space into the front of the wav file that is as long as the intro animation.
It will be "playing" simultaneously with the video, but you won't hear anything extra until the video is done playing and the FE pops up.
