[Resolved] include midi file within autoit?

[huskies]

I understand that the soundplay command allows autoit to play a music file from a hard drive. However what if I want to play a midi file that isn't available in every computer and I want it to be a part of my midi, in a "include" fashion so that the midi is apart of the exe?

Like this:

$Install = FileInstall ( "file.midi" , "C:\File.midi" )
FileOpen ( "C:\File.midi ............

thanks, I have a second small problem, I need my midi to loop and it is not doing that.

here is my code, I got it from this thread that http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...p;hl=play+music (post#5) if you use

a simple while loop it will loop the midi infinitely while letting you do other stuff with autoit

this is the midi that I used

Nice, Bubble Bobble Snow Brothers is one of my favorites. For testing purposes, I used a much shorter song. Victory

Create an Adlib function and start it after the song begins.

Func _LoopSound()
    if _SoundStatus($sound) = "stopped" then _SoundPlay($sound)
EndFunc

Also note, I don't think the _SoundPos/_SoundLength functions work on MIDI files, at least they didn't work for me.
