QuickTime and MP3 files

Hello everyone,

I have a cointainer field with a MP3 file attached to play via quicktime. I'm creating a promotion cd for a friends band. I have 1 minor problem. I would like the user to be able to move around the different pages while the song is playing. I have the name of the song set as a button that selects the container field which allows the user to click play on the quicktime bar. But if the user clicks anywhere on the layout or moves to another page the song quits. Is there a way to allow the user to move through the pages and keep the song playing? I tried adding the container field to all layouts this does not work.

Any Ideas?

Thanks, Michael

Hi Michel,

I played a bit with a containerfield, but could not come up with a 'native' Filemaker solution.

On a Mac you could easily start QuickTimePlayer in the background via AppleScript.

Don't know exactly if Filemaker has got something like that for the PC.

Succes,

Ernst.
