From: Gary Wolsieffer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: (Part Two) I'm Going Loopy Trying To Loop and Shuffle My Songs... I have a small console that I made by embedding several RealAudio components into a web page using the AX controls for Dreamweaver. The console will eventually play a large number of songs. It is important that it loop continuously and shuffle the playlist. I've studied the Real Production Guide and have tried everything I can think of but I can't get the songs to loop and shuffle without errors. Here is what I've tried and the problems I've encountered: #1. I added a "SHUFFLE" parameter to the console. The songs shuffled just fine. #2. Then I added a "LOOP" parameter to the console, the songs shuffled and repeated, but the RealText info that is displayed in the console did not appear after the first cycle. #3. I deleted the "LOOP" parameter and added repeat="99" to the first <seq> in my .smi file. <seq repeat="99"> The songs repeated and the RealText displayed in every cycle. However, the songs did not shuffle even though I still had the "SHUFFLE" parameter in my console. #4. I made a separate .smi file for each song, then made a .ram file pointing to each .smi file. When the console opened the .ram file, it played the first .smi, then stopped. I could not find any mention of a "shuffle" command that I could use in my .smi file. Would some kind soul please tell me how I can loop & shuffle my songs? Here is the URL of my console. It is currently set to configuration #2. http://www.crosswinds.net/~garysmusic/radio.htm Here is my .smi file: <smil> <body> <seq> <par> <text src="sr_intro.rt" region="info" dur="5s"/> <audio src="sr_intro.rm" title="Songwriter's Radio Introduction" dur="5s"/> </par> <par> <text src="song1.rt" region="info" dur="5s"/> <audio src="song1.rm" title="Song #1" dur="5s"/> </par> <par> <text src="song2.rt" region="info" dur="5s"/> <audio src="song2.rm" title="Song #2" dur="5s"/> </par> <par> <text src="song3.rt" region="info" dur="5s"/> <audio src="song3.rm" title="Song #3" dur="5s"/> </par> <par> <text src="song4.rt" region="info" dur="5s"/> <audio src="song4.rm" title="Song #4" dur="5s"/> </par> <par> <text src="song5.rt" region="info" dur="5s"/> <audio src="song5.rm" title="Song #5" dur="5s"/> </par> </seq> </body> </smil> ******************************************************* The RealForum is an email discussion group focused on using RealNetworks products.
