Sort of off the thread topic, but yes, Firestorm has added Opensim support and a grid manager. See <a href="http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/preferences_opensim_tab?s[]=opensim">http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/preferences_opensim_tab?s[]=opensim</a> for details. :)<div>

As it turns out I have no problems with sound except using a script to upload many 10 second clips in a row to play an entire song on an instrument. As far as hearing it, I do find it is making sounds lower then usual and they have to be turned up. While Firestorm's recent viewer/client works fine, Imprudence don't seem to work properly for me.<br>
<br>
To me this is an Imprudence isue, so I stick to Firestorm.<br>
<br>
Good luck and hope the team there don't get disapointed and keep up the good work. Not sure Firestorm with add any form of Grid list editor yet.<br>

Ok I tested what you've said.. I have the same preferences to both computers and the result is that I can hear the sounds in laptop with XP but I still cannot hear the sounds in laptop with Windows 7. Also a friend of mine tested it to his computer (Windows 7, 64-bit) and he can't hear any sound. Do you know if it runs to the Windows 7, 64-bit?<br>
Also when I log in, a menu pops up with this "Your system contains a graphic card that is unknown to us at this time." Do you know if this is the problem?<br>
<br>
Thank you for your useful help!!<br>
Best regards,<br>

Subject: Re: [Opensim-users] A question for the sound<br>
<br>
Christina,<br>
<br>
You may have several different problems.<br>
<br>
First, there is no "standard" volume for uploaded files. I even have problems with some normal mp3's in iTunes<br>
<br>
You may need to increase the volume of your sounds and reload them. Most people I know use a wonderful free product called Audacity to do that sort of tweaking. I've had to increase volume of files many times.<br>
<a href="http://audacity.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">http://audacity.sourceforge.<u></u>net/</a><br>
<br>
(side note - If you ever want to use audacity to make mp3 files, you also need a separate download it tells you about.)<br>
If you get to that point, it's easy to use audacity to really boost the volume of your clips and see if that helps.<br>
<br>
So, one question I'd ask is whether you can hear OTHER sounds, and whether other people can hear the sounds YOU uploaded. Both of those tests can help pin down whether the problems are at the server end or the client end, or both.<br>
<br>
First test any YouTube video with soft music to be sure your local machine volume is working properly on both clients.<br>
The Moonlight Sonata is a good test. I like this version: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6txOvK-mAk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?<u></u>v=O6txOvK-mAk</a><br>
<br>
It's remarkably easy to inadvertently alter or even mute the local machine's volume control. Even when you have it set correctly, ill-behaved products such as Skype can change your volume and leave it changed when you exit them.<br>
Microsoft operating systems have a number of hidden ways they try to be "helpful" that interfere with sound in non-obvious ways, both output and mike-input.<br>
<br>
Make sure you shove EVERY slider on your audio preferences panel to the far right for testing this sort of thing, to eliminate that as a confounding problem.<br>
<br>
The script commands PLAY and LOOP, or whatever they are, both have their own volume option -- make sure it's set to the maximum. (1.0 ?? I forget right now.)<br>
<br>
Summary:<br>
(1) test to see if you can hear the Moonlight Sonata equally loud on each computer. If not, investigate and fix<br>
the issues that have nothing to do with your clip or OpenSim. Don't forget to look for muted output and<br>
unplugged cables.<br>
<br>
(2) See if other people can hear your clips in OpenSim. If they can, and you can't, the problem is not with the<br>
clips but with some other settings on your own preferences.<br>
<br>
(3) Confirm you can hear sounds in general and other clips that other people can hear in OpenSim. If not,<br>
you still have preferences set wrong, probably, on both computers.<br>
<br>
(4) If you and everyone still think your clips are too soft, try boosting their volume in Audacity and<br>
re-uploading them.<br>
<br>
(5) If none of that works, post again here. I'll be curious to know where the problems were.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I would like to inform you that I have a problem with the sound.<br>
We have updated the server to the latest version and I'm running<br>
the OpenSim to 2 laptops (one is XP 32-bit and the other Windows 7<br></div></div>
64-bit). In the XP I can only play soundslocally or in world and<div class="im"><br>
not at all in a scipt. From the other laptop I cannot hear at all<br>
the sounds that I have uploaded. I have exactly the same<br>
preferences in Audio and Video. I'm new in OpenSim, so I would<br>
like to ask you what I have to do in order to fix it and hear<br>
properly every sound.<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance.<br>
<br>
With regards,<br>
Christina<br>
