Something is wrong. Something has changed.
I was able to get audio by switching to 4800 baud.
I changed over my other scripts to 4800 but they do not work. Commands to Stop, or to start other tracks do not work. Just replays 1 track.
Checked my audio on the SD card and all is OK.
I have 4 other EZ projects for the same audio module all at 9600 baud and previously working fine at 9600.

Thanks for finding that bug in the new compiler Lumpy
I owe you a beer - and you owe me a beer... so I guess we're even? Or, we can have a beer together. Now get your butt down here and visit us
Whew, I thought I was losing my mind.
Awesome to hear it was a glitch.
I still owe you a few beers!
All is back to normal! Audio is working again!
Thanks DJ for the great customer support!
friends.. how do I use the Full Screen command ?... ControlCommand.. and ?!... thanks. :_
Use the Cheat Sheet tab when editing script to see all available ControlCommands that are relevant to your project.
Thanks DJ.. I'll try to figure out how to...
