I was wondering if there was a way to detect if a sound is currently playing or not. For example, I want to have a button that says music on or off depending on whether or not a mp3 is playing or not. I am able to somwhat accomplish this now, however when the sound stops playing I need to be able to detect this so that it changes the button. If this is not possible, then is there a way to detect the system time or to wait a certain period of time before an action is completed.

Re: Sound Playing Detection
I think what you want is relatively easy. It does not need to detect the music if it is just a toggle switch. Have the on state be original OBJECT and the OFF state be the HIGHLIGHTED OBJECT (off button or whatever you decide to use.) Underneath the OFF button - have the line - CLICK HERE TO HEAR THE MUSIC and on the ON BUTTON have the line - CLICK HERE TO TURN OFF THE MUSIC. I think this is what you are asking...

Re: Sound Playing Detection
No, I already know how to do that. I have it say on or off using the show object and hide object action whenever they click on a button. The problem is that when the song is done playing it still says off(which is supposed to turn the music off). I need a way to detect if the song is playing or a way to wait a certain period of time so that it will show the on button again instead of the off button. That way they can turn the music back on again.

Re: Sound Playing Detection
Hi,
As far as I know this really is not possible using AutoPlay. There really is no way to tell if a sound has finished playing or not. I have tried to think of a workaround but have yet to come up with one. If I think of something I will be sure to post it.
