Re: [revMobile] could not play sound
Nicolas, I don't know if importing sounds work but try this: Using RevMobile bundling thing, bundle your waves. Then using the specialFolderPath thing, get the path to your bundled waves. Use the play command with them. I think that right now, sound playing only works with external bundled or downloaded files, not with imported sounds. I may be wrong but it is worth a try Andre On Fri, Aug 20, 2010 at 2:15 AM, Nicolas Cueto wrote: > Just got the latest build of the RevMobile plugin and am testing out > (among other interesting things) the sound playback on iPhone and iPad > of a revMobile-built app. In the IDE, the sound works, but in the real > devices themselves and in the iPhone simulator, no sound! > > I've tried with wav, aiff, and mp3 soundfiles. > > And I've tried with these files located as URLs and in the application > itself (using Rev's "File > Import sound"). > > The button scripts are: > > on mouseUp > play "helloWorld.wav" -- the imported soundfile > put the sound & cr & the result into field "result" > end mouseUp > > on mouseUp > put tTheURLPath & "helloWorld.wav" into tPath > play tPath > put the sound & cr & the result into field "result" > end mouseUp > > > And the result feedback from these shown on my iPhone and iPad: > > done > could not play sound > > > > Tried using the system beep a too, like this: > > on mouseUp > beep > end mouseUp > > But, nothing heard that way either. > > Any ideas? > > Please note I realize RevMobile explanatory note's warn sound playback > is "somewhat buggy" in the iPhone simulator.

Re: [revMobile] could not play sound
Andre, Thank you! You were right. Have to use the RevMobile plugin's "Add files". And the files played simply with "play", so no need for getting the specialFolderPath. However, this "Add files" solution is not ideal. What I'd prefer is what I do with my Windows/Mac versions -- namely, I use Rev's "load" command to pre-fetch a group of files from the internet, and then, when done, use "unload" to remove them from the cache. And this preferred way does work with image objects in iPhone/iPad apps built by Rev. For these, I can successfully set their filename to an url. Wish I could do the same with sound files! Perhaps for sound files what I am after are the "put url" and "libUrlDownloadToFile" commands described in the RevMobile PDF doc (the "Non-file URL access" section). But: (1) I am an unclear how to work with files in this way -- download the file, retrieve the path to that downloaded file, and then refer Rev objects to that downloaded file via the retrieved path? (2) I am worried about memory -- will the downloaded file remain even after the app is closed? Anyway. Glad I could at least get sounds to play. -- Nicolas Cueto ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Just fetch the files from the network. There's no problem in that. Check out the specialfolderpath docs for Rev Mobile. Your application is sandboxed, it has some folders that are persistent and others that are not. Write stuff that you'd like to keep to the persistent ones and stuff that is temporary to the transient one. You will be safe and the play command will work as expected. > > Anyway.

It might be my fault. I just bought a new dryer. It looked awfully futuristic for this day and age. I ended up with the right number of socks, but none of them were mine.

If you've changed the hardware you may need to hit the CUDA switch. Where that is on the motherboard depends on what model you've got. Look for a red pushbutton somewhere on the motherboard. You may also be able to pull the plug, then remove the battery, give it a minute, and replace it. You'll lose your preferences, but that shouldn't be a big deal. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

I took a lot of notes when I was going through the whole process of getting a certificate and figuring out how to sign. I've been meaning to post some tutorials on the lessons.runev.com site but I just haven't had time to go back and create a coherent tutorial yet. Once you have all of the proper files on your computer it is pretty straightforward to sign an executable each time you build it. It's just a matter of calling something like the following on the command line in Windows: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Bin \signtool.exe" sign /f C:\my_code_signing.pfx /t http://timestamp.comodoca.com/authenticode /p YOUR_PFX_PASSWORD "Z:\Path\To\My\Executable\ScreenSteps.exe" I'll see if I can get something posted by the end of next week the explains the process.

While you're digging around in there, might re-seat the memory and any other cards that are in there as well as check to make sure no cables have been nudged loose.
