background sound

Hello Everyone,

I never tried adding sound to the virtual tours, so it is my first time. And I need your help.
My virtual tours are generated automatically by the make vtour tool.

I tried adding this code

Source code

<!-- load the soundinterface plugin --> 	<plugin name="soundinterface"	    	url="http://at-bangkok.com/virtualtours/snc/plugins/soundinterface.swf"	    	alturl="http://at-bangkok.com/virtualtours/snc/plugins/soundinterface.js"	    	rootpath=""	    	preload="true"	    	keep="true"	    	/>
	<!-- start playing the sound -->	<events name="currentpano"	        onnewpano="playsound(bgsnd, 'http://at-bangkok.com/virtualtours/snc/1.MP3|http://at-bangkok.com/virtualtours/snc/1.wav', 0);"	        onremovepano="stopsound(bgsnd);"	        />

	<!-- button to pause the sound: -->	<plugin name="snd" url="http://at-bangkok.com/virtualtours/snc/soundonoff.png" align="topleft" x="10" y="10" alpha="0.25" scale="0.5" onover="tween(alpha,1);" onout="tween(alpha,0.25);"	        crop="0|0|50|50"	        onloaded="if(ismobile,set(scale,1));"	        onclick="pausesoundtoggle(bgsnd); switch(crop, 0|0|50|50, 0|50|50|50);"	        />

to the both tour.xml and vtourskin.xml but it don't work. The soundonoff.png doesn't even show.

Please let me know what I did wrong. the vtour link is http://at-bangkok.com/virtualtours/snc/

Any input would be appreciated. Thank you!

Best regards

The audio dose work on Android 4.2 and IPAD, but the sound on off button doesn't display.

BUT it does not work on the PC.

I can't figure out why the "sound on off" does not appear?

Source code

<plugin name="soundinterface"	        url="plugins/soundinterface.swf"	        alturl="plugins/soundinterface.js"	        rootpath=""	        preload="true"	        keep="true"	        />
	<!-- start playing the sound -->	<events name="currentpano"	        onnewpano="playsound(bgsnd, '1.mp3|1.wav', 0);"	        onremovepano="stopsound(bgsnd);"	        />

	<!-- button to pause the sound: -->	<plugin name="snd" url="soundonoff.png" align="lefttop" x="10" y="10" alpha="0.25" scale="0.5" onover="tween(alpha,1);" onout="tween(alpha,0.25);"	        crop="0|0|50|50"	        onloaded="if(ismobile,set(scale,1));"	        onclick="pausesoundtoggle(bgsnd); switch(crop, 0|0|50|50, 0|50|50|50);"	        />

Please any input? the tour.xml file is attached

Hi,

the "currentpano" <events> and "snd" <plugin> elements need a keep="true" to be able to used within the scenes.

Without keep="true" they will be get instantly removed at startup when the first scene will be loaded.

Best regards,
Klaus

Klaus,

Thank you so much.

It worked but every time I change a scene, the audio starts over.

Is it possible to have it play continuously and loop when it ends?

	<events name="currentpano"	        onnewpano="playsound(bgsnd, '1.mp3|1.wav', 0);"	        onremovepano="stopsound(bgsnd);"			keep="true"	        />
	<plugin name="snd" url="soundonoff.png" align="lefttop" x="10" y="10" alpha="0.25" scale="0.5" onover="tween(alpha,1);" onout="tween(alpha,0.25);"	        crop="0|0|50|50"	        onloaded="if(ismobile,set(scale,1));"	        onclick="pausesoundtoggle(bgsnd); switch(crop, 0|0|50|50, 0|50|50|50);"			keep="true"	        />

Thank you again

Hi,

the event will be called with every new pano,
to play it only once with remove the event after the first call or use the krpano onstart event to play the sound,

e.g.
<events name="currentpano" keep="true" onnewpano="playsound(bgsnd, '1.mp3|1.wav', 0); set(events[currentpano].onnewpano,null);" />

or simply:
<krpano onstart="...; playsound(...);">
...

Best regards,
Klaus
