trnew 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 So I have some questions about sound functions.I'll start with the one that might help me resolve other preoblems regarding sound. I know I can use _SoundPos($sound, 2) to get the position of sound and I need something like If _SoundPos($sound, 2) => 5000 then something.So, how can I use _SoundPos($sound, 1) => 00:00:05 ?It's not working this way and getting the time in hh:mm:ss might help me in this case.I will post my code too if this doesn't do what I want.. Thank you for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trnew 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 Thanks for the methods. Ok.I messed around a bit with the first one and it does the same thing my function does.The second one seems about the same.And some dum question : In $iTicks = _TimeToTicks($aSoundTick[0], $aSoundTick[1], $aSoundTick[2]) what are [0], [1] and [2] for?Are they like tick for hour [0], tick for minutes [1] and tick for seconds [2] ?( i don't really get how this tick thing works) But anyway it does the same thing as my function (loopmusc()).I think I need to use something different like update cause what I want is to play a song when gui starts (did this) and loop the song.I also have some buttons and while the button b1 runs a script the song will loop after another 5 seconds(loops the song every 8-9 seconds instead of every 5 seconds when the b1 script is running) and I think i would need an update function or something like that for the song when it's running another script.. I attached the files here and if you have any idea please tell me what i sould do.It 's quite some disorder because I tested your function for button b1 and for gui, but it's the same if you replace that soundtick lines with loopmusc() I appreciate your help.guitry.zip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trnew 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 Sorry.I think I confused you.What I wanted was looping the sound (not specifically 5 or 8 seconds)..I really looked in the soundstatus, but I didn't know I could = it with values like "stopped" or "parked", because the example didn't use it like that (still don't know why i didn't try it) .. I have another problem now When I click button b2 it will show a messagebox, but if I wait till the song stops, it doesn't loop anymore, also when the messagebox is up no hotkeys work..I think it's because it's another window, but then how can I give focus to both windows ( both the GUI and the messagebox ) so that the message box will stay on top of the GUI and the hotkeys will work and the sound will loop? Here's the cleaned code : expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <Sound.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #include <Date.au3> Global $blmusicstop = False, $blmusvol = False, $blloopmus = False #region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form= $hGUI = GUICreate("window", 301, 301) $iButton1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("b1", 150, 150) $iButton2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("b2", 190, 190) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI) WinSetOnTop("window", "", 1) #endregion ### END Koda GUI section ### Global $sound = _SoundOpen(".\resourc\play.wmv") _SoundPlay($sound) HotKeySet("{m}", "Stopmusic") HotKeySet("{v}", "musvol") HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") While 1 $iMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $iMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $iButton1 while 1 If _SoundStatus($sound) = "stopped" Then _SoundSeek($sound, 0, 0, 0) _SoundPlay($sound) EndIf mousemove(600,700) mouseclick("") sleep(1000) mousemove(800,600) mouseclick("") WEnd Case $iButton2 Sleep(10) If _SoundStatus($sound) = "stopped" Then _SoundSeek($sound, 0, 0, 0) _SoundPlay($sound) EndIf WinSetOnTop("window", "", 0) WinSetOnTop("Help", "", 1) MsgBox(0, "Help", "bla" & @LF & "bla2") WinSetOnTop("window", "", 1) EndSwitch Sleep(10) If _SoundStatus($sound) = "stopped" Then _SoundSeek($sound, 0, 0, 0) _SoundPlay($sound) EndIf WEnd Func Stopmusic() ; stopmusic function $blmusicstop = Not $blmusicstop If $blmusicstop Then _SoundPause($sound) Else _SoundResume($sound) EndIf EndFunc ;==>toggle pause/resume Func musvol() $blmusvol = Not $blmusvol If $blmusvol Then SoundSetWaveVolume(0) Else SoundSetWaveVolume(100) EndIf EndFunc ; ==>toggle sound on/off Func Terminate() ; the exit function Exit EndFunc ;==>Terminate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melba23 2,692 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) trnew,MsgBox is an API blocking function so nothing in the script works until you return. I suggest using my ExtMsgBox UDF - look in my sig for the link - as that allows the HotKeys to remain active. M23Edit: 15k!

trnew 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Let me be the first to say it Congrats! -- @PhoenixXL Let me thank you very much.That was exactly what I needed.Now I'll look more into all that. --- @Melba23 I'd try it that way, but I want to understand a function and your function is just...way too complicated for me to understand. ---- Well, I do have some questions: In MsgBoxAsync(0, "Help", "bla" & @LF & "bla2", 0, $hGUI) I have to mention $hGUI so that the msgbox window would have the same properties as $hGUI has and only then it will be on top?( I don't really understand how it works ) In Func MsgBoxAsync($iFlag, $sTitle, $sText, $iTimeout = 0, $Hwnd = 0, $iExit = False) what is $iExit?Is there a full list with those $variables (like $iFlag...) autoit works with(not just the ones for the msgbox function)?
