sutefan Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Not sure if AutoIt's the program for this but I want to create something that will let me do the following: Change the device selected in Recording Control from Microphone to Wave Out Play a small audio clip (wav or mp3) Change the deviced selected in Recording Control from Wave Out to Microphone This would be in the form of a gui with buttons for each sound clip (beep, hello, goodbye), pressing one of these buttons would perform the above action and play the sound bite requested. To configure it I would to add something that would allow the user to edit the name of the button and the file (& it's location). Sutefan これは私の署名であり, 私の名前はsutefan である !
MadSc13ntist Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 (edited) Yes.You can do just about ANYTHING in AutoIt... That script should be pretty small and relatively simple... And you can make a GUI front end for it if you like... And you can compile it (SIMPLY) into an exe... And you can decompile it for the source (with a user defined password)And lets you run Au3 scripts open sourced once you install AutoIt3!i think the device selection are reg settings (could be wrong), but you will probably want to just call the settings window (Run), then change the settings (ControlSend), Then play the sound (SoundPlay)... and so on. as for the file selection you can prompt the user with an FileOpenDialogCheck out the following Functions in the AutoIt Help file...RegReadRegWriteSoundPlaySoundSetWaveVolumeControlSendControlSetTextFileOpenDialogjust mine through the helpfile... it's actually pretty amazing what you will find in there.I haven't seen a task yet that i couldn't use AutoIt to do. It is a very logical and intuitive lang that i have come to love...</rant>Be sure to install AutoIt3 FirstP.S. --> if you don't have an Editor yet i recommend SciTe.I also recomend http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/CyberSlug/jan11autobuilder.zip (By CyberSlug) to build your GUI.

sutefan Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 Thanks for the reply MadSc13ntist, A lot of things for me to lookup there and the fact you listed them will make it easier for me find the correct ones! Sutefan これは私の署名であり, 私の名前はsutefan である !
MadSc13ntist Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Glad to be of service! I use Autoit several times a day and i can't say i don't enjoy making scripts just for the heck of it... The abillity to use a scripting lang opens up sooooooo many possibilities. and indeed makes you much much much more useful when it comes to computers in general... Think about it... you can make scripts that will amaze and wow those around you... getting the basics down can be a bear if you are new to scripting all together but the forums are FILLED with useful intelligent mammals that speak Au3 fluently... The BEST PART: ------------------ We've ALL been there. You have an idea for software, i.e. man... wouldn't it be cool if there was a program that could... Now you can be the person to offer the solution to others... at the size of a txt file! </sermon> If you need any help getting started in Au3 please feel free to PM me and i will get you on your way in no time at all. If you are already adapted to this lang then feel free to ignore this. :"> l8r
sutefan Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 Thanks! I've already done one script for updating anti-virus with the help of somebody else on these forums...I've not got far with this but so far manage to code the following: RunWait("SNDVOL32.EXE", "C:\Windows", @SW_MAXIMIZE) ; change @SW_MAXIMIZE to HIDE ControlSend("Volume Control", "Volume Control", "1004", ""); 1004=ControlID for Options I've not got the second line correct yet..

sutefan Posted March 10, 2005 Author Posted March 10, 2005 Struggling now... I can get the Volume Control window to open, next I want the select Options then properties. I've been messing around with values etc for ControlSend but have yet to get it work. No errors just nothing seems to happen. Option is a menu name, when I use Active Window to look info on and move the cursor over Options it comes up with nothing for Text: or Control ID:. Am I doing something wrong?
