mobileSoundOnChannel says "could not find channel"

Post by teacherguy » Fri Feb 09, 2018 3:47 pm

Can't seem to get the name of the audio file to return.

I have a sound playing on channel 1. When I invoke "answer mobileSoundOnChannel 1" I get "could not find channel."

I have also tried naming the channel....same result.

It's a function, so you need parentheses:

get mobileSoundOnChannel(1)

A couple of things to check: does a different version of LC work? If so, you may have found a bug unless the version that does work is newer. Also, are you using the simulator or a real phone? It might work differently in the simulator.

If neither of these yields any info then I'd submit a bug report.

You could try

Code: Select all

get mobileSoundOnChannel("current")
shiftLock happens
