just a note to say thanks to neo and norsk hedensk for pointers in getting my sound working. I am not used to devfs which is catching me out! ...devfs creates devices on the fly, the kernel registering them by name rather than major and minor numbers. This is different to the 'nomal' block and character devices which would sit on my root filesystem ..... so no sound devices exist until all correct modules are loaded

Having recompiled the kernel, edit /etc/devfsd.conf and doing a modprobe for the required module all sound devices are instantly created...sound at last Smilie i just have to automate this with modules.conf and all shoud be well...who told me to use devfs!!

thanks

use SDLx::Sound; my $snd = SDLx::Sound->new(); # loads and plays a single sound now $snd->play('myfile.wav'); # load a single file $snd->load('theSound.aif'); # plays it or all loaded files $snd->play(); # more sounds my %files = ( channel_01 => "/my_sound1.wav", channel_02 => "/my_sound2.ogg" ); # times sounds bangs my %times = ( channel_01 => 0, # start channel_01 => 1256, # milliseconds channel_02 => 2345 ); # Load files in channels for realtime play $snd->load(%files); # sets sound channel_01 loudness $snd->loud('channel_01', 80); # loud at 80% $snd->play(%times); # play loaded files at times $snd->play; # play again # plays sound channel_01 at 578 milliseconds from now $snd->play('channel_01', 578); # fades sound $snd->fade('channel_02', 2345, 3456, -20); # in a single act do the whole Sound my $snd = SDLx::Sound->new( files => ( channel_01 => "/my_sound1.wav", channel_02 => "/my_sound2.ogg" ), loud => ( channel_01 => 80, channel_02 => 75 ), times => ( channel_01 => 0, # start channel_01 => 1256, # milliseconds channel_02 => 2345 ), fade => ( channel_02 => [2345, 3456, -20] ) )->play(); DESCRIPTION
You can think about the SDLx::Sound at 2 approaches. o A simple sound or o The sound of your game or app. Your application will say what the best approach. In a taste that resembles to perl and to SDL, our SDLx:Sound hooks at SDL::Audio and SDL::Mixer with a graceful and simple interface that can offer to monks a modern perlish way to manage sounds. An SDLx::Sound object can load sounds from filesystem, play it, adjust this loudness level or stops the sound. Each sound will play in the next available channel, so it can be handled isolately. METHODS
new Returns a new instance of SDLx::Sound load play $sdlx_sound->play('file.wav'); Play a file pause resume stop AUTHORS
