Hi,

I'm doing a College project that needs to have a random MP3 playback feature. A random MP3 must be selected from ten MP3s when the movie is loaded, there is then a bar at the top of the movie that controls the audio with 'Play', 'Pause', 'Stop', 'Fast Forward' and 'Rewind' buttons. A new random MP3 must be played back when the original one ends etc.

Unfortunately, I have extremely little experience with director, so i'd greatly appreciate help with this.

Thanks alot,

GT

Very basic example of playing a random external MP3 in channel 1:

[tt]--
mp3List = ["1.mp3", "2.mp3", "3.mp3", "4.mp3", "5.mp3", "6.mp3", "7.mp3", "8.mp3", "9.mp3", "10.mp3"]
sound(1).playFile(mp3List[random(10)])
--[/tt]

I've already managed to sort this now, but would the method you posted work with cast members rather than externally?
