Help Me / Problem Importing Sounds
« on: December 28, 2023, 03:13:06 PM »
When I try to import sounds to the Events tab using the "Import Sounds" tab, the sounds file folder is blank.  This has been driving me nuts for the last few days.  What am I doing wrong?  The sounds are there when I open the folder in Windows.

Help Me / How to play two sound files in each event
« on: December 31, 2021, 03:17:34 PM »
I want to play both the blinds sound file and the antes sound file in succession at the start of each round.  Not sure this is possible.  I can't figure a way to do it.

Help Me / Chromecast Audio Issue
« on: July 25, 2019, 11:05:26 PM »
When I use Chromecast to cast TD to a TV set my HP laptop keeps setting itself to mute and I get no audio delivered to the TV. If I unmute my laptop it will play sound for one level and then mute itself again. It does not do this when I use an HDMI cable to connect my laptop directly to the TV set.

I don’t know if this is a function of my laptop or some other issue.  Has anyone else had this problem?   Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Help Me / Casting or streaming
« on: July 25, 2018, 03:25:27 PM »
Been searching but didn’t find a definitive answer. Is there a way to use Chromecast or similar to stream from my laptop to another monitor, or two? I hate having to get up go to the computer by the monitor to make changes.

Or is there something other way to do what I need?

Help Me / TD folders in several directories
« on: March 02, 2017, 11:48:53 AM »
After buying a new laptop a couple years ago, and re-installing TD, my TD file folders are now in several different locations, many are duplicates.  I would like to fix this and have the folders all in one location.  Some template folders are local and some are on OneDrive.  I don't want any TD folders on OneDrive in case I need to run a tournament somewhere where I don't have WiFi. 

I just checked my Data Stores setting and I see it is pointed to a folder in OneDrive.  If I change this to the local TD folder location and move all the other templates to the local TD directory, will that fix the problem? 

What is the default location when first installing?

Thanks. 

Edit:  I moved a TD folder to C:\Users\MyName\Documents\Tournament Director 2.  I then added that to the Date Store locations.  I clicked on properties set the new folder as default.  Is that all I need to do?

Help Me / Keyboard not responding at times
« on: February 22, 2012, 10:07:48 PM »
During the last two tournaments while running TD, I have had an issue where the keys on my keyboard were at times non-responsive while TD was running.  I first noticed it when I could not pause the tournament with the space bar.  Esc didn't work either.  It was like there were two layers in a graphic, and TD was the back layer.

However, if moved the cursor with the mouse pad and input a left click, TD would then respond to keyboard inputs.

Any ideas what's going on?

Help Me / Prize Rounding Error?
« on: November 08, 2011, 10:56:30 AM »
I used ver. 3.0 for the first time this weekend.  When calculating the prizes for a six places, I specified to round down to the nearest $5.  The last place prize was caluculated to be $124.  The summary was correct however and did not reflect that a $1 was omitted.  I have never seen this in ver. 2.

Help Me / Buy In Players To Start
« on: October 06, 2010, 10:37:25 PM »
I want to change the background color of the Buy-In Players to Start pre-game flashing box but I can't figure out where it is.  Any help?

I would like to set a different sound event at the end of a round just before a break.  I saw where Corey added the variable NextisRound, but I can't figure out how to make it work.

The is the string I am using at the end of each round:  (state = 2) && isRound && (secondsLeft = 0).  This triggers the same sound event at the end of every round.  What do I need to change so that I could have a different sound trigger at the end of round just prior to a break?

Thanks!

Help Me / Files/templates not showing up in Vista
« on: February 17, 2009, 06:12:03 PM »
I don't know if this is the same problem discussed previously in the "No file (load/save) dialogs" post or if it is a Vista indexing issuee.  I think I am starting to hate Vista even more.

I recently updated to TD ver. 2.5.7 and have Vista Home with all updates.  Around the time I update to 2.5.7 I started having issues where my templates and saved files would not display.  If I click My Computer I can navigate to the folders in TD and see the files.  However, when I try to "load" files/templates, only the default files from the TD program are visible.

I have re-indexed Vista but nothing seems to help.  Any ideas?  I have a tournament to run on Sat. and I need to solve this. Thanks.

Help Me / Playing sounds in sequence
« on: January 03, 2009, 05:21:04 PM »
Please forgive me if the is discussed elsewhere, but I can not find it when searching.

Can you play more than one sound file in sequence when an event is triggered?  When I put in two sound file actions, only one plays.  I have tried all the action settings and nothing seems to work.

Thanks!
