Play wav file on exit

[DaystromM5]

I have an AMS5 project that I'm trying to update. Since i don't have the am5 file anymore, I believe I have to start from scratch.

I am trying to play a wav file before exiting the app when clicking the exit button. How do I script it so the wav file plays completely before exiting?

I've tried these on the On Click event for the exit button

Audio.Load(CHANNEL_USER1, "AutoPlay\\Audio\\TCmdD238.wav", true, false);
Application.Exit(0);

This starts the wav file, but exits before it is finished

And

Audio.Load(CHANNEL_USER1, "AutoPlay\\Audio\\TCmdD238.wav", true, false);
length = Audio.GetLength(CHANNEL_USER1);
repeat
position = Audio.GetCurrentPos(CHANNEL_USER1);
until position == length;
Application.Exit(0);

This plays the wav file, but then the application hangs and never exits.

I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong. I'm betting it's somewhere close to everything.

Use an invisible WMP plugin - put an Application.Exit() on the 'On Finish' event.

Load the wav file at runtime. On your exit button -

MediaPlayer.Play("Plugin1");

One of many ways to do it, HTH.

Ron, this seems like deja vu.

A solution I suggested in another thread was to load and play the song and set a variable (bExit) to true. Then in the On Audio for the page on the Finish state for the audio if bExit is true then exit the application.

would using Application.Sleep(songs length) work? or would that pause the wav file?

Actually, that does work who would've thought?
Good one Gabis! Sometimes the solutions can be really simple.

Thanks Gabis, and the rest of you for your help. The Application.Sleep command worked perfectly. I had a few other problems the first time I made this, and I'm sure I'll be back for more help

Thanks Again

I've tried the "sleep" method before, but I think the On Audio - On Finish gives you more control, as Tigger suggests. You would want to trim any silence from the end of the audio file. PJ
