Hi,

I’m making a web-app that requires the use of several audiofiles  
played after one after another.

Example:

File 1:  
“Welcome to another”

File 2:  
“five”

File 3:  
“minutes of your life!”

This must sound more-or-less as one sentence. The .wav audiofiles are  
stored on the server.

How might I approach this in the best way? Any ideas are welcome!

Thanks,  
Ger.

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion!

I’d like to string them together on-demand, so I dont think it would  
be fast enough.  
That said, Perhaps I could use a ramdisk or something… But if  
possible, I’d rather play them sequentially at the clients end.

If all else fails, I can fall-back to this though, so thanks a lot!

Ger.

Have you considered using catwave?
