array problem

[farshizzo]

Here is an example script that uses the viztask module to loop through a playlist of songs. Let me know if anything is unclear.

import viz
import viztask
viz.go()

PLAYLIST = ['crash.wav','BOING!.WAV','quack.wav']

def PlayMusicTask(songs):
	"""Task that loops through a playlist of songs"""
	
	#Preload all songs
	songCycle = viz.cycle([ viz.addAudio(filename) for filename in songs ])
	
	#Loop indefinitely through song list
	while True:
		
		#Play next song
		song = songCycle.next()
		song.play()

		#Wait for song to end
		yield viztask.waitMediaEnd(song)

#Schedule music task
viztask.schedule( PlayMusicTask(PLAYLIST) )

Thanks for the quick reply (you've saved me a lot of time!)

The only unclear thing is the following line:

songCycle = viz.cycle([ viz.addAudio(filename) for filename in songs ])

It will load the songs as it is or I have to change something? (ie replace the "filename" with the first (actual) filename in songs?)

I also met another problem. I had these errors when I run the code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files\WorldViz\Vizard30\python\viztask.py", line 685, in _onupdate
self._tasks = [ t for t in self._tasks if not t.update() ]
File "C:\Program Files\WorldViz\Vizard30\python\viztask.py", line 652, in update
val = self.__stack[-1].next()
File "museum.py", line 78, in PlayMusicTask
songCycle = viz.cycle([ viz.addAudio(filename ) for filename in songs ])
File "C:\Program Files\WorldViz\Vizard30/python\viz.py", line 7524, in addAudio
return VizAudio(_ipcSend(_VIZ_ADDAUDIO,0,0,fileName,0.0,0 .0,0.0,0.0),**kw)
TypeError: message must be a string

Did you get that error by running the exact code I posted?

That line of code creates a cycle of audio objects from the file names. All you have to change is the PLAYLIST variable to contain all the filenames of songs you want to play.

It was the exact code! The only different thing was the PLAYLIST, where I had replaced the sounds with my songs :-)

So it wasn't the exact code? I'm assuming you incorrectly defined the PLAYLIST variable. I can't provide anymore help unless you post the code you are using.
