Hi,

I am fiddling arround with fs and different situations to handle
playbacks and wonder, if there are some tricks or options, to tell
"playback", to handle playbacks in different ways?

What I found out till now:

1.) If i want to stop a playback, I have to send a "break"...

2.) If I playback a soundfile (#1) and tell fs to play another
soundfile (#2), while #1 is still playing back, fs behaves as follow:
#1 will pause, #2 will be played back and after #2 was played back, #1
will continue to play back.
Why is this the default behavior?


I want to the following and would like to ask, if there are or will be
some options to do that in an easy way:

1.) Stop a playing file, by sending a new playback command with another file:
Although I can figure out some situations, where the behavior
described in 2.) could be useful, I would like to have the option, to
tell fs with playback, to permanently stop the current playing file
and replace it with the new file.
Otherwise I always first have to send a "break", then wait for the
"CHANNEL_EXECUTE_COMPLETE" and then send the new playfile command.
Perhaps it would be easier, if fs could handle that.

2.) Play a list of files, one after the other:
I would like to play a number of files in a row. For exaple I want to
tell the caller, how much money he has left.
Let's say, he has 12,55 (whatever) left. So I have to play 3 files:
twelve.wav - fifty.wav - five.wav.
As far as I see, I have to play the file "twelve.wav", wait for
"CHANNEL_EXECUTE_COMPLETE" in conjuntion with "playback", play the
file "fifty.wav", wait and so on...

Another option to play a list would be, to use the behavior, described
in the first 2.). Because a first called playback will pause, when
another playback is sent, I could send 3 playback commands with the
three files in a reversed order. playback five.wav, playback
fifty.wav, blayback twelve.wav. Because the first two files will be
paused, twelve.wav will be played first.
Is this the way I have to go or are there chances, that there is a
slicker solution for this?


Thanks for the help.
Dennis

Ok, if there is nothing implemented yet, which can "break" playing
files, which where started with "event-lock:true", I will go your
suggested way.
I think, that this would be a very helpful feature.

Kind regards
Dennis

api break <uuid> will break one of them just not all. it has nothing to do with event lock
event lock means do not parse events recursively like the behavior you described.


Since you asked so nicely, I added the "all" modifier to the command.

api break <uuid> all

Great, now it works perfectly. Thanks a lot!

(Could you have a look at my thread "Socket inbound or outbound with
PHP?" please? I am in some trouble...)
