I've got this script that makes a real time ticking clock with day, date and seconds etc. Now I've tried to modify it so it ticks and chimes on the hour.
I've managed to get it to tick by linking a tick.wav file to every second refresh,but it won't chime on the hour for the full length of the chime.wav file (which is about a 6 second melody). It cuts off after 1 second and the tick kicks in.
I've tried increscing the seconds to say..
if (seconds >=10
but then the chime.wav file keeps refreshing every second and plays it 10 times up to the piont that the tick.wav starts.
Anyway copy the code and see for yourself. I'd Appreciate any sugestions
Many Thanks
Marty
Here is the full script...

Did you ever get an answer to this problem? I am also trying to get the same issue to work and was hoping there was a resolution here.

I realize this post is almost three years old but I have found a solution to your problem.
replace:
if (minutes+seconds == 0)
bs = ('<bgsound src = "C:/Windows/Media/chime.wav">')
else {
if (seconds >= 0)
bs = ('<bgsound src = "C:/Windows/Media/tick.wav">')
}
with this:
if (minutes ==0 && seconds == 0)
bs = ('<embed src = "C:/Windows/Media/chime.wav" autostart=true hidden=true loop=1 playcount=1>')
else {
bs = ('<embed src = "C:/Windows/Media/tick.wav" autostart=true hidden=true loop=1 playcount=1>')
}
I've tried it, it works.
