Re: [Scidvspc-users] Scid sound

Hi Pipa,

Sounds are configured in Options->Sounds, (and also Options->Fics->Sounds).

Today i added an option to "Play tick-tock instead of move" to the main
sound widget (in svn). Perhaps this is what you wish ?

The tick-tock sound (until today, only played only in FICS)  is ok, but a little long imho...
Does anyone have a nice (free) short sound to replace this tick-tock with ?


> 2) When I try to load the sound files of the Sound folder, a popup appear  announcing the folder have only 29 sound files of a total of 30 files? What happen withe missing file?

Hmmm - the missing sound is only used by dedicated hardware  such as 
is configured in the Tools->Connect Hardware. But it should be included in the next release.

PS. Sound is partially broke on my 64 bit Fed14 system.
It only plays back every second move. I believe this is a linux/snack/64bit issue,
and have added a note and a workaround to the help file for any others affected.
