Playing/looping audiofile independently of the timeline Apr 22, 2020 By Mehdi Kasumov hi, guys, here is what I have: 1. timeline with several triggers that pause/resume timeline based on the mouse hover - no issues there. However, when I add the audio file it also stops when the timeline stopping triggers are activated( understandable). My question is: how to play audio file independently of the time line and possibly loop it.? I tried adding trigger to the timeline like this:Resume timeline when time line reaches( 50s - end of the audio file) - did not work Restart media when the time line end- did not work

To loop an audio track continuously, add a trigger to Play AudioFile when AudioFile completes. Hope that helps? Len
