Son / Sounds ( with Contact )

if fabricator comes here LOL
I say : good to know , thanx Smile

Quote :: For some unknown reason media player suddenly hated Midi
files.

There are two bugs I believe.
1) Bug in IE/media player which causes embeded midi to
crash if autoplay=false is used.
2) A bug somewhere odd (a 3rd party dll or some other
application) which causes midi to no longer work.

You can solve bug#2 by uninstalling everything which makes
me think its no microsoft bug somethere wierder. I actually
did this and it worked.

Mp3 is also a big problem, don't use off the net mp3's
unless you check to make sure they aren't in stereo.
Contact hates stereo Mp3s and crashes.

Well I wish I could find the actual solution to this. I'll keep chipping away at it in the hope of finding the offending program or update.

2_ mp3 as an audio clip works on some vrml viewers too (not blaxx)

3_ movie texture can't be spatialized, nor can it's volume be controlled by script (may be the pitch can, but dunno)

4_ neither audioClip nor movieTexture can reproduce streaming audio/video

Ne pas mettre les mp3 en Audioclip ,

Code:: DEF Sound1 Sound {
intensity 1.000
priority 0.000
minBack 10.000
minFront 10.000
maxBack 500.000
maxFront 500.000
source DEF AClip_Sound1 AudioClip {
url [
"Satie.mp3"
"http://site.voila.fr/isa37/Satie.mp3"
]
pitch 1.000
loop FALSE
startTime -1
stopTime 0
}
}
]
}

mais en MovieTexture :

Code:: Shape {
appearance Appearance {
   material Material {
         diffuseColor .6 .6 .6

   } texture DEF diams MovieTexture { url
   "diamsparamour.mp3" loop FALSE } }
geometry Box { size .01 01 01}
}
}
ROUTE Sensor1.touchTime TO diams .startTime

Blaxxun doesn't like mp3 in sound nodes (ask Szarah and X Very Happy

... and I did the same mistake for the contest !)

At the other hand, Cortona and Flux (may be others too) can handle mp3 in the audioClip.

But non of those are able to stream mp3, and it's a mess, because you need to reduce sound-quality in order to have an acceptable download time.

One solution, if you want to stream a heavy mp3/wma file or even a broadcasted mp3/wma 'from within vrml' (oups ... this is a Blender thread, sorry) is to embed a player with streaming capabilities into the frameset, and to start and control it, from within the wrl, with Browser.loadURL().

This solution has got (at least) two problems :

1) You need a frameset Smile

... that means, you can't do it inside just an wrl file, you need to embed the wrl into a html frameset, also containing a (may be invisible) frame also for the player and the javascript.

2) Spatialization is almost impossible (not impossible), but spatialization is totally impossible using the movie texture solution, I guess, as much as it's impossible to control the volume of a movie texture.

So far, Alain's solution is the only 'pure vrml solution' and probably the most handy one.

Bissoux,

Peter

P.S. : btw, the possibilities of the (ms-)player, the player control and javascript playing together with vrml, was a hint given to me by Pam, a few years ago. It's a matter of justice to say that.
