Sound Shadowing Question
« on: December 20, 2013, 03:41:32 AM »

Hey guys, sorry for not being very active around this forum :dino-chase:
I have a question about sound shadowing a Ugobe Pleo, .WAV files are pretty big and all my files that I would like to use are above 100KB, will pleo be able to read it? I tried a .WAV that's over 100KB as startup and my pleo doesn't play the default sound or the new sound that I added, I tried IMR's Lilo sound shadowing file and it works great, so it isn't the SD card problem. So is the problem the file size? If it is how do I get it to a smaller size, can pleo read Mp3 files?

thanks P:)

The key to shadowing a sound is that it has to be in the right format.  Not just any .WAV file will work, it has to be an 8-bit mono WAV.  (so, no to the MP3) If you have an audio editor like Audacity yo can adjust the file settings.  If not, the simplist soution is just to use MySkit to convert the file for you.  A good set instructiond for how to do this with MySkit is in a VERY old topic here: http://bobthepleo.com/forums/index.php?topic=253.0

One note on these instructions, the principle is the same for all Pleos, but list list of sound files to shadow is different depending on the type of Pleo and the version of the OS installed.  OS2 for the Ugobe has more sounds than 1.1, and the RB has a completely different set.
