SoundPlay, Pre-Loading? Topic is solved

[bapl]

Hello!

I would like to know a couple of questions about how Sound Play works, namely:

1. Is there a download every time SoundPlay is called, or only 1 time during the entire operation of the script?
2. I saw an example example for Ahk v1 with a call to PlaySound, How to make it work on V2?

Code: Select all

Start := FileRead("Assets\Sound\Suspend Off.wav", "RAW")
PlaySound(Start)
Sleep 1000

PlaySound( &Sound ) {
Return DllCall("winmm.dll\PlaySound" ( 1 ? "W" : "A" ), "UInt", Sound, "UInt", 0
, "UInt", ((SND_MEMORY:=0x4)|(SND_NODEFAULT:=0x2)))
}

I get the error:
Error: Parameter #1 of PlaySound requires a variable reference, but
received a Buffer.

I want the file to be loaded in advance into memory for later playback. How to implement it correctly?

}

Maybe this helps:

Code: Select all

filepath := a_desktop "\vine-boom.wav"
sound := fileread(filepath, "RAW")
msgbox("variable 'sound' is of type " type(sound))
msgbox("Mem location of 'sound': " sound.ptr)

playsound(sound) {
	dllcall(
		"winmm.dll\PlaySoundW", ; try "A"-version in case you have a 32-bit system
		"uint", sound.ptr, ; pass the memory location of the buffer
		"uint", 0,
		"uint", 6 ; (2 | 4)
	)
}
