Stop sound if win active


Recommended Posts

Writing a script that detect the PID who executed the autoit script (thanks to @AdamUL for the help in this part) and based on the parent process name who executed it, play a determined wav sound (doing this way because all programs have same tittle and class name, the only way i could detect the program who launched the script was reading her process name, ex: 1.exe, 2.exe, 3.exe)

I have a folder in C:\audios\ which contains a lot of other folders, with different wav files (C:\audios\1\, C:\audios\2\, etc).

What im trying is after execute the wav file, if i active the window wich same process name than the window who launched the autoit script, stop the sound being played.

My main goal with this script is to avoid multiple process playing different wav files at same time, and stopping the audio in the same moment i active the window who started it.

#include <Process.au3>
   #include <WinAPIProc.au3>
   #include <AutoItConstants.au3>
   #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
   #include <MISC.au3>


   ProcessWaitClose("alarm.exe")
   
   Global $iScriptParentPID = _WinAPI_GetParentProcess(@AutoItPID)
   Global $sParentProcessName = _ProcessGetName($iScriptParentPID)


   If $sParentProcessName = "1.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\1\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "2.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\2\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "3.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\3\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "4.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\4\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "5.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\5\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "6.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\6\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "7.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\7\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "8.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\8\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "9.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\9\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "10.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\10\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "11.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\11\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "12.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\12\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "13.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\13\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "14.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\14\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "15.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\15\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "16.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\16\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   If $sParentProcessName = "17.exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\17\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   
   Local $Actwin = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]")
   Local $PidActwin = WinGetProcess($Actwin)
   Local $NamePidActwin = _Findpidname($PidActwin)


   If $NamePidActwin = $sParentProcessName Then

   SoundPlay("")

   EndIf


   Func _Findpidname($Pid)
       Local $Processlist = ProcessList()
       For $i = 1 To $Processlist[0][0]
           If $Processlist[$i][1] = $Pid Then Return $Processlist[$i][0]
       Next
    EndFunc   ;==>_Findpidname

 

  Could be possible optimize this part to avoid adding many lines for each process number? The number on exe file will be always the number in audio folder

If $sParentProcessName = " .exe" Then

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\( )\expired.wav", 0)

   Endif

   I already did the code to compare the active window pid which the pid of the process who started the wav file, then if match stop the sound, im struggle in how i could loop this part, while the sound being played, and exit it, if the sound stop before?

Local $Actwin = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]")
   Local $PidActwin = WinGetProcess($Actwin)
   Local $NamePidActwin = _Findpidname($PidActwin)


   If $NamePidActwin = $sParentProcessName Then

   SoundPlay("")

   EndIf

Try something like this (untested) - then just call that function with the parent process as the parameter.  Check the UDF for _SoundStatus to get the status of a sound and also _soundPlay and _soundStop.

func _playSound($aParentProcessName)
    SoundPlay("C:\audios\"&StringTrimRight($aParentProcessName,4)&"\expired.wav")
EndFunc

JFish and Deye, thank you both, using your examples i optimized my code:

#RequireAdmin
   #include <Process.au3>
   #include <WinAPIProc.au3>
   #include <AutoItConstants.au3>
   #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
   #include <MISC.au3>

   ;MsgBox(0, "Process Name", $sParentProcessName) ;For testing.?
   ;ProcessWaitClose("audio.exe")

   Global $iScriptParentPID = _WinAPI_GetParentProcess(@AutoItPID)
   Global $sParentProcessName = _ProcessGetName($iScriptParentPID)

   SoundPlay("C:\audios\"&StringTrimRight($sParentProcessName,4)&"\expired.wav"")


   While 1

      $Actwin = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]")
      $PidActwin = WinGetProcess($Actwin)
      $NamePidActwin = _Findpidname($PidActwin)
      Sleep(200)

      If $NamePidActwin = $sParentProcessName Then
      SoundPlay("")
      Exit
      EndIf

   WEnd


   Func _Findpidname($Pid)
       Local $Processlist = ProcessList()
       For $i = 1 To $Processlist[0][0]
           If $Processlist[$i][1] = $Pid Then Return $Processlist[$i][0]
       Next
    EndFunc   ;==>_Findpidname

The script stop playing the audio as i active the process window who started the script.

There's any option to make thread solved here in the forum?

The way that I have always done it is to just edit your first post. You should be able to edit the title there.

Try using the _Singleton function to determine if there's an instance of it already running, unless you need more than 2 of them running at the same time it should work.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Using singleton worked:

If _Singleton("audio", 1) = 0 Then
          Else
          ExitLoop
      EndIf

With that code the script is able to detect if any other compiled exe is running, the problem is, i have this script running in different sandboxies and inside a sandboxie it dont detect others instances, each sandboxie have a username different, reading on singleton help file:

Quote

You can place the object in a namespace by prefixing your object name with either "Global\" or "Local\". "Global\" objects combined with the flag 2 are useful in multi-user environments.

So i did:

Global $name = "audio"

     If _Singleton($name, 2) = 0 Then
          Else
          ExitLoop
      EndIf

Still not detecting others audio.exe running at same time.

How _singleton detect another instance?

 

-----EDIT-----

I solved it, was a conflict with sandboxie settings, sorry.

Try this:

If _Singleton("Global\audio", 2) = 0 Then
          Else
          ExitLoop
      EndIf
