I'm trying to play several sound files from the harddrive simultaneously and control the volume of each sound independently. But no matter how I play around with the script it seems to play the sounds using "auto" default channel.

Example:

I want to play the file "01-ins1.mp3" on channel 5.

I use the following script to give the audio file the alias name of "AudioIns1":

AudioIns1 = SYSTEM_PUBLICATION_DIR + "\\01-ins1.mp3"

I use the following script (I tried with and without spaces) to play the audio file on channel 5:

PlaySound( AudioIns1, preload=true, times=1, volume=50, start=0, finish=-1, fadeIn=0, fadeOut=0, stop=false, channel=5, wait=false)

And I also tried (with and without spaces)...

PlaySound( AudioIns1, true, 1, 50, 0, -1, 0, 0, false, 5, false)

The audio file plays okay, but all of the other PlaySound parameters seem to be stuck on default. How do I get the channel parameter to function properly?

I am using Opus Pro 5.5. Thank you for any help.

Here is an example of the problem.

Note: after you publish this Opus file as a standalone program, make sure to copy the chimes.wav file to the same directory that has the .exe file.

Problem solved.

Brendon from Digital Workshop told me how to fix it. First of all, in scripts, the channels are 0-7 instead of 1-8. Secondly, the "stop" parameter is where the "channel" should be. So, instead of

PlaySound( AudioIns1, true, 1, 50, 0, -1, 0, 0, false, 5, false)

the correct script is

PlaySound( AudioIns1, true, 1, 50, 0, -1, 0, 0, 4, 4, false)

And now the script will play AudioIns1 on channel 5.
