Ubuntu 6.0.6 and AIFF files

[Thomas McCarthy]

Richmond,
Just a suggestion, why not have a custom command/function to handle playing audio in your stack script. That way when you run into trouble, you just have to adapt the routine in your stack and not 200 buttons.

button:
get myPlay(the label of me) --e.g. "Suspicious minds"

stack:
function myPlay tfile
global gSoundPath --path to the sound folder
put gSoundPath & tfile & ".aif" into tfile
set the filename of player 1 to tfile
start player 1
etc.
end myPlay

As for converting 200 soundfiles, I did it very quickly using QTAmateur. See this post:

QTAmateur has a batch convert function that's really easy to use.
cheers,
tm

>I am completely unable to get Ubuntu 6.0.6 to play AIFF files, whether 'by themselves' or via a Runtime Revolution stack.

>Now 'downgrading' and upgraded computer as will take less time than converting 260 sound files and editing 200 'play' commands.
