    Is there a limit on the file size of the sounds?

    It seems awesome. :D

  • I tested it out and it only plays the first 15 seconds or so and stops. Is there a limit on how long the file can be, or is it just buffering?

  • I'd say it's the buffering. It might stop at some points (and need to be replayed). I call them sound clip buttons for a reason? :D (I don't know the full extent of the code myself, sadly.)

    I found out why, it's buffering. Because I tried it again it went up to 2 minutes and stopped, so yeah; huge mp3 files are not recommended. :x (mine is 4.57 MB)

  • The addition seems slightly useless but there isn't any problem with it being there I suppose. I'm glad they can't be auto-played.

    I just noticed that it seems to use up the necessary 24 characters for posts, therefore a potential way to bypass the 24 character rule... is there any way you can fix that?

    This is cool. :3

    But just to make sure, when you say it can use any file, that means your able to put in video files from YouTube or photobucket, right?

    Wow what a cool addition. I noticed it when I seen it Danja's signature. So that is what is it, cool. But I got a question as well. If we do use it will it count as a line of text or a banner in our signature?

    Only left channel audio is coming in.
    Is it just this specific clip or are they all like that?

    I'm asking since I can't try it myself because I don't have any sound URLs.

  • Well, I just uploaded a clip for my signature. it plays fine on both channels. So it's not the player. :D

    Anyways this is a neat little function. Maybe you could make it so we could set a song on our profile as well :D

    Holy crud, someone's paying attention to the audio channels. o-o

    The DSi menu only plays audio in the left audio channel, I assume. (That, or it's my computer.)
    As a headphone user, I find it hard not to.

    Mm, Zanzie's signature has just answered my initial question. :O

  • A very nice addition, Haraken. This might come in handy for some hacking-related purposes....

    Is the [sound] BB Code allowed in profiles?
    I know several people that could make great use of it if it's enabled in profiles.
