Joey well done as usual. I'm going to put some sound to it. :)
Who says you can't put 61" plasmas up on cantilever mounts using toggle bolts? <---Thanks Ernie ;)

cpchillin, you bring up a good point, during the process of making this, I made a few .WAV files, a "cracking" noise, that sound from Star Trek when the doors open, and others, but there is no way of running the page flips while a sound is being issued during the Macro.

Meaning if the page flips are 1, 2, 3, "sound", 4, 5, etc... then the 4th and 5th page wont flip until the sound is finished, which kinda sucks, and also the .WAV files take up a lot more space.

Thans for the responses,
Joey

I think I disagree. Id have to play w it to make sure, but Im pretty sure there IS a way to do sound while page flips are active. In fact I KNOW I have the THX .wav file play when "watch DVD" is pressed, WHILE the "please wait" page comes up. Id have to double check to see how I did it.
No, I wont install your plasma with an orange extension cord hanging down the wall.

Well, at home on my T2-C, I made a "good night" button for my wife, so that when she shuts our system down, it flips thru a bunch of photos from our wedding /honeymoon, kinda like a slide show. Right before the photos start flipping, I insterted a .WAV file of the first 15 seconds of our Wedding Song, and would'nt you know, the song plays the whole way thru, THEN the pages start flipping, and the macro looked like this:

Play "Al Green, Lets stay together",
Flip to HM1
0.5 delay
Flip to HM2
0.5 delay

and so on....

There is NO delay between the song and the first page flip, but it will NOT start flipping pages untill the song is finished, so I ended up making just one page flip to our "traditional wedding photo" and then play the song, which works just as well for her.

Please send me your example where you have had the sounds and page flips working simultaneously, I'd love to see it work.

Thanks,
Joey

I put sound to a password page I did. If you entered the wrong password you got Homer Simpson saying DOH. If you got the password right he said Woohoo. It makes me laugh everytime I hear DOH. The sound goes at the end.

I have done the same with my password pages, Access Denied page says "Houston we have a problem" and Access Granted page has a spaceship door opening sound.

I just put the sound at the end of the macro.

OK, I sent it to you, and it DOES work. Basically, the sound is not part of the macro, but it set in the button properties. So instead of the default "click" when the button is pressed, it plays the .wav file of your choice.
