Hello all:

I'm having a couple of small and relatively insignificant issues, wondering if anyone has any insight.

For some reason, the changes I make in the Alerts & Sounds area are not saving; i.e., when I re-open my tournament, it's back to the default sounds. I've looked high and low for some other button that saves this configuration, but can't find anything (which doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't exist - that proverbial biting snake and all).

Also, what are the specs for importing audio files? I get an error message when trying to import some sounds - "Could not get audio input stream from input file." I figure it's got something to do with the sample and/or bit rate.

Thanks in advance!

For alerts (and any console settings): You have to explicitly save those to a file (Console->Save) and then reload them on startup (Console->Load). You can have them automatically load by specifying the default console file in the preferences (File->Preferences).

Sorry it isn't intuitive.

For audio format. Needs to be either AU/PCM or a certain type of WAV (sorry I don't know the exact specs). On windows, you can load sounds into the Windows recorder and save them out as the correct format.

Awesome. Thanks. No worries on the intuitive-ness. Very robust program, sir. Bravo!
