Definition

INT load_song ( <STRING filename> )

Loads a song for later use with play_song().

There are multiple filetypes you can load using this function. Included are:

  • OGG Vorbis (.ogg). Good quality for songs and doesn't take too much space (it's similar to *.mp3).
  • MIDI (.mid). Takes very low space, but it's limited to samples of the soundcard.
  • Modules (.xm, .it, .s3m, .mod). Like MIDI, but Modules also contain the samples themselves.

Parameters

STRING filename - The music file to be loaded, including a possible path

Returns

INT : SongID

-1 - Could not load music file (errormessage in console).
>=0 - The SongID.

Example

Program example;
Private
    int song;
Begin
    song = load_song("my_song.ogg");
    play_song(song,0);
    Loop
        frame;
    End
End

Used in example: play_song()
