[Xerte] Re: Sound wait parameter ignored on server

[Dave Burnett]

I'm just surprised there is so little mention of it in the archives.
Kent Chesnut was the only other one, so I buzzed him off-line.
He ended up using an onSoundComplete event interaction to stop the drop through.But he only had 2 sounds to deal with.I've literally over a thousand.
How about  rootIcon.preloadMedia(pageNode);?What goes in pageNode?I've tried putting a page id  in there but I can't get the onPreloadComplete event to trip.

I think so, it's been a while, but I've seen it before, a long time ago, nd was unale to fix it. You might be able to verify that diagnosis somehow?
