Sounds not played

[Cognitology]

Hi Francesco, David,
Surely it's not a bug with the older E-prime, right? (and yes, minor - .x -
updates are almost always free)
I thought it's more likely that the filename is not correct. What's the
exact error message?

Check to make sure that the filenames in the list are correct - a common
problem is that the list has "audio1.wav " rather than "audio1.wav". Try
with 
Debug.print "playing:" & c.getattrib("sound") & "."

That way you'll spot any leading spaces and such that are difficult to see
from just looking at the list. You can compare the debug.print from this
output to the output you get if you just fill in the filename - they should
be the same.
Hope that helps. 
Best,

Michiel

Francesco,

Wow, that is an old EP2 version.  I understand the reluctance of many labs
to move up to the latest version of EP2 because of how it significantly
breaks with earlier versions, but you should consider moving at least up to
2.0.8.90, as it adds several improvements and fixes to the earlier versions.
The thread at https://groups.google.com/d/topic/e-prime/ptt8Z08BUhA used
Codec Config to fix a similar problem, but I do not think that your version
includes that.
