unit mmsystem for KDE

[saiko]

hello,

the project I want to use has been made for lazarus windows, and it uses a unit called "mmsystem" wich doesn't exist under KDE. Is there an equivalent version for KDE ?

If you need sound, you could try:

Yep, it looks like ACS Audio Mixer is what I need. The problem is it has been made for Delphi 6/7 and I have been told to work on Lazarus. He says I can convert .dpr (for Delphi) to .lpr (for Lazarus) with Lazarus but it won't be a perfect conversion and I don't feel like reprogramming it all (I'm a beginner)...

anyway, maybe I don't really need mmsystem for what I want to do. Could someone tell me what is mmsystem for (well I guess it's a big unit made for a lot of things but...) ? Is it a special unit made to manipulate sound ?

If you check here: http://acs.ullihome.de/acs/index.php/Main_Page , you will see ACS is compatible with Lazarus so it shouldn't need much work to get it to work with Lazarus. It looks like the downloads section of the link given above is outdated and doesn't lead to an ACS download, so it is a mater of getting the the proper version.

oh thank you very much !

As I told before, I tried to convert Delphi version to Lazarus. Of course I had to correct some mistakes due to conversion imperfections (like "wrong number of parameters"... etc), but I saw "thread" stuff and my programming teacher told me to abandon, because it was far too complicated. But I'll try with this link again, if it works directly with Lazarus.

In fact I don't need all features of ACS (I might only need AudioMixer). What I need is a "mod" that changes a .wav file into an array of integers (or reals whatever) so I can easily mix two sound (by adding two arrays) and concatenate them. I'll create a new topic...

Wow in fact I checked glober's link again and effectively, it seems to work under Lazarus but only on windows version... and I'm supposed to work on KDE  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:
