Hi - perhaps due to not picking the right search terms in the documentation, I
am confused about playing audio files in LC 8. What I want seems quite simple
to me: I want the user to click a button which will cause a single MP3 file to
play. While it plays I may or may not want to switch cards o

No player object: on Macintosh the mp3 file comes out as "squishy noise".

Happy, Happy 5th of December: by sheer chance I stumbled on how to do
this . . .
In fact the whole thing is dead easy (not, admittedly clear from the
Dictionary).

Hi all,
The command "play ' on desktop plays the file as an audioclip,
and audio clips can be in WAV, AIFF, or AU format. If you want to play an
mp3 file, you have to use a player object.

Thanks Panos - I know that. I am however looking for comprehensive instructions
as to how to use a player object via script, e.g
- embedding an MP3, or alternatively providing a path to the default folder
for the MP3 file for standalone creation
- starting the player
- monitoring the player t
Hi Graham,
In short:
*- embedding an MP3, or alternatively providing a path to the default
folder for the MP3 file for standalone creation*
Include the .mp3 file (say "myFile.mp3") in the "Copy Files" section. This
will be accessible from the **standalone** using the
function.
* - starting the

Lol hahaha, sorry :)
I meant "playrate", and indeed I wrote "playrate", but Safari auto-complete
keeps changing it to "playmate" :)

Specialfolderpath("resources") is especially convenient in another way. In
a standalone it points to the location of the files that were added to the
Copy Files pane of the standalone settings. But in the IDE it points to the
folder containing the current mainstack. If you organize your files on
Thanks to Panos and to Jacque (and earlier to Richmond, even if his link had an
alarming effect on my DropBox!). Am I right to think the LC documentation is
deficient in this area, or did I just miss it? For example, although it’s in
the LC dictionary, “playstopped” can’t be found by searching t

The player in that stack plays an embedded mp3 file.

I stand corrected!
You are indeed right: I moved my "carrot.mp3" file out of the same
folder as the stack
and, no, no sound despite their being an embedded "carrot.mp3" file in
the stack.
What a bu**er.

I don’t really know if it was DropBox exactly, but I got a temporary glitch
that made my Mac freeze the first time I tried to download your zip file via
the linkg. I tried it again just now and it worked. If I find out any more
about what I did, I’ll let you know!

However, the fact that "import audio file" allows one to import an mp3 file
is a bit misleading.

Yes, this is just plain nonsense - it may be a leftover from a previous
LC/Revolution idea that “play” would have a larger range of possible formats,
but in the current versions of LC the IDE should warn one off, no?
