- Just a quick post to plea for some help off someone :-)
-
- Sound datatypes. I've written a simple app using the sound datatypes to
- load and play samples using the DTM_TRIGGER STM_PLAy dodah but am
- experiencing a problem that I found even with MultiView.
-
- If a sample is greater than about 100K it gets rudely truncated which is a
- bit of a bugger to say the least! I thought MultiView was the bee all and
- end all of 'intergrated' media-players.
-
- This seems too weird to be true so if it is something wrong with my setup
- could you let me know. Also if MultiView really can't play big samples is
- it possible to add some code to the normal routines to allow this to
- happen?
-
- BTW I do have enough chip ram, so thats not the problem. When you think of
- it 100K+ is not really that big, I've played 4 meg samples with a double
- buffered player like dsound and 1.5Meg samples straight into chip.
-
- Help!. Oh I don't subscribed to this group because it's too bloody big for
- my tiny hard drive - 60MB :-( - so please respond via E-Mail. Address is
- in the sig.
-
- TIA
-
- Ben Matthew.
-
- P.S. Thanks to Jonathan Gapen for the code snippet. I did email a
- reply but it didn't get to you.
