#Script with sound probs
4 messages in this thread
I am working with a client of mine trying to script a slideshow in AAS. We are
loading about 6 bitmaps that stay on the screen for about 3 to 4 seconds each.
We want to play a music clip in the background while they flip from picture to
picture. But when the picture flips the music stops and then restarts with the
appearance of the next image. Are we doing this wrong or maybe I should ask
"how do you do what I want to do?"
Thanks all,
Paul

nope. this is a limitation in the way scriptor runs. easy workaround (although
is costs some harddisk space)… make an AVI or a FLC out of the 6 bitmaps,
create as many duplicates of each bitmap as necessary (15 frames per sec works)
for the playback and viola, one flic while one soundtrack… no sound skips.
hope this technique helps. we save a 6-frame flic to reproduce and store these
kinds of presentations, remembering to expand any frame to 15 before playback
in presentations.

Thanks, I'll try your work around. Too bad the scriptor is limited on that.

i spoke with Mark Gerhard, product manager of AStudio, at Autodesk Developers
Conference a few weeks ago. without commenting on the future of Autodesk
products, i'll simply say that the Scriptor will have several functions updated
for added functionality in September's free upgrade.
