My first thoughts were that it was a platform problem as he is testing on Intel and I have tested on PPC, but in the end we found that it was just that he was using 24 bit WAV files. Testing with 16 or 8 bit WAV showed no problems, and likewise by converting the files that failed from 24 bit WAV to 24 bit AIFF files resulted in them being able to play. Has anyone else come across this problem? I did a search of the various groups and found no reference to it. I have samples that I can make available but I don't see how to attach files to these topics. Here is a code snippet: Code:'f is a valid FolderItem for the WAV file dim s as Sound if ( f <> nil ) then s = f.OpenAsSound if ( s <> nil ) then s.Play end if end if Thanks, Chris _________________ PowerMac G5 Dual 2.0GHz/3.0GB Mac OS 10.5.6 PowerBook G4 1GHz/1.5GB Mac OS 10.5.6 RealBasic 5.1 Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 1 post ] -- Over 900 classes with 18000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in.
