Hello, everyone. Long-time lurker, first-time caller, semi-newbie level user.Are you using preLoad, or preLoadNetThing?
I am creating a shockwave "radio" that has 30 different songs in 64kbps MP3 format. In order to reduce the file size, I made these cast members link to external files.
The basic methodology for the "radio" is to randomly pick a cast member, preload it, start playing it, and to determine its length. When the song is about 20 seconds from finishing, it preloads the next song. When the song is 5 seconds from ending, it cross-fades to the next song. All of this is working just fine when I play it in Director and even if I create a projector. However, when I save the .dir as a .dcr (Shockwave), it doesn't play any sound at all.
Does anyone have any ideas why this would happen?
Is the relative path when posted (between the .DCR & the sound files) the same as when you are playing in Authoring?

Or, even if I am approaching this in an appropriate way? I am using Dir 8 on a Win XP box.
Thanks to any and all help you can offer. BTW - I love this list. Although I am nowhere near the Lingo God status that so many of you seem to be, it is nice for this amateur to see how the pros do it.
