al_play_sample3alleg5

Allegro 5 api

Usage

#include <allegro5/allegro_audio.h>
bool al_play_sample(ALLEGRO_SAMPLE *spl, float gain, float pan, float speed,
   ALLEGRO_PLAYMODE loop, ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_ID *ret_id)

Overview

Plays a sample on one of the sample instances created by al_reserve_samples(3alleg5). Returns true on success, false on failure. Playback may fail because all the reserved sample instances are currently used.

Parameters:

•

gain - relative volume at which the sample is played; 1.0 is normal.

•

pan - 0.0 is centred, -1.0 is left, 1.0 is right, or ALLEGRO_AUDIO_PAN_NONE.

•

speed - relative speed at which the sample is played; 1.0 is normal.

•

loop - ALLEGRO_PLAYMODE_ONCE, ALLEGRO_PLAYMODE_LOOP, or ALLEGRO_PLAYMODE_BIDIR

•

ret_id - if non-NULL the variable which this points to will be assigned an id representing the sample being played. If al_play_sample(3alleg5) returns false, then the contents of ret_id are invalid and must not be used as argument to other functions.
