Startup/shutdown sounds
« on: April 28, 2010, 05:49:50 AM »
What's the fastest and easiest way to make TCL play a chosen sound (wav or others) at startup/shutdown?

Thanks

 ;)

Shutdown might be too quick, depending on the sound ;)

Put the play commands to /opt/bootlocal.sh for boot, and /opt/shutdown.sh for shutdown, backgrounded.

Alsa and wav - aplay
OSS wav - ossplay

For other formats see one of the many player extensions.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

Thanks: aplay is the command I was looking for!
