Button Question

[JDog37]

I am messing around with the Audio Capture .apz that was on here. I am not sure who's it is (Thank you tho) but I wanted to add a function to the stop capture button. I want to be able to hit the space bar and stop the capture as well as the stop button.



Any help would be much appreciated..

Thanks,
Joe

without seeing some code or the original apz its impossible to help

This is the origiinal app, and I added a Hi quality record button.. I want to hit the space bar to have it stop recording /and or playing.

Also is there a way to show a time like: (00:00:00) For the playback or record?? ;)

Thank you so much for a reply!!! :yes

1. use a timer and System.IsKeyDown to check if the spacebar is pressed

if System.IsKeyDown(VK.Spacebar) then
AudioCapture.PlayStop();
AudioCapture.CaptureStop();
end

2, use this function

-- this function will Convert Milliseconds into standard time format ie HH:MM:SS
function MilliSecondsToClock(sMilliSeconds)
local nMilliSeconds = String.ToNumber(sMilliSeconds)
if nMilliSeconds == 0 then
--return nil;
return "00:00:00";
else
nHours = string.format("%02.f", Math.Floor(nMilliSeconds/3600000));
nMins = string.format("%02.f", Math.Floor(nMilliSeconds/60000 - (nHours*60000)));
nSecs = string.format("%02.f", Math.Floor(nMilliSeconds/1000 - nHours*3600000 - nMins *60000));
nMilliSecs = Math.Round(nMilliSeconds - (nHours*3600000) - (nMins *60000) - (nSecs *1000))
return nHours..":"..nMins..":"..nSecs
end
end

and replace the code in the timer
Input.SetText("InputLength", MilliSecondsToClock(AudioCapture.GetLength()));
Input.SetText("InputSize", AudioCapture.GetSize());
Input.SetText("InputStatus", AudioCapture.GetStatus());


that should get you going.

Thank you MicroByte for a speedy response!! Only, I am lost, and confused. I am totally novice to code, BUT I do like to ask questions... :o

use a timer and System.IsKeyDown to check if the spacebar is pressed

Where do I find System.IsKeyDown? Timer in the plugins? And number 2???? Lol. I am blown away... Sorry for the questions.

Is it possible to post me a .apz?

Ok, I found out how to set the timer... after 2 days.. But I can not figure out where to put this code?:

if System.IsKeyDown(VK.Spacebar) then
AudioCapture.PlayStop();
AudioCapture.CaptureStop();
end

I tried in globals but no luck...
I also tried putting this code on the page show:

-- this function will Convert Milliseconds into standard time format ie HH:MM:SS
function MilliSecondsToClock(sMilliSeconds)
local nMilliSeconds = String.ToNumber(sMilliSeconds)
if nMilliSeconds == 0 then
--return nil;
return "00:00:00";
else
nHours = string.format("%02.f", Math.Floor(nMilliSeconds/3600000));
nMins = string.format("%02.f", Math.Floor(nMilliSeconds/60000 - (nHours*60000)));
nSecs = string.format("%02.f", Math.Floor(nMilliSeconds/1000 - nHours*3600000 - nMins *60000));
nMilliSecs = Math.Round(nMilliSeconds - (nHours*3600000) - (nMins *60000) - (nSecs *1000))
return nHours..":"..nMins..":"..nSecs
end
end

But No luck..

OK I'm probably going to show my ignorance here but VK.Spacebar doesn't mean anything to me or apparently to AMS either :) however the code -

if System.IsKeyDown(32) then

does detect the spacebar state.

p.s. the code will monitor whether a key is up or down so a page timer might be a good place for it although I don't know how that would fit in with everything else.

Found the answer to VK.Spacebar which is fully explained in Desmond's post in this (http://indigorose.com/forums/showthread.php?p=71950) thread.

Defining the VK table explicitly on my laptop makes it work so the lua file is obviously missing. Must have a look...

[longedge]

Putting the following in pre-load ( the table defines the table entry "Spacebar" as = to 32)

VK = {
Spacebar = 32,
};

and then the following into the page timer


if System.IsKeyDown(VK.Spacebar) then
AudioCapture.PlayStop();
AudioCapture.CaptureStop();
end

works for me.

Thank you longedge, I am going to try it!! Thank you all as well!!
