Help with MeasureSpeaker and AnimatedGIF

[DvD]

Not sure I understood. You'd like to change the images of another skin from the above code?

Yes but not in that way xD
i have 2 skins of 2 gif
i want to put them in the code, but is like, the first gif is in front of the second
but in this case, when the computer make sound, the second gif pass in front of the first gif
that's the form that i think is possible to do xD

Very immature and twisted with this program.
Don't quote me on this.
The problem is sometimes with the measures.
For example, the program did not even realize the volume changed because it never tracked the change past the indicated mark.
If you are measuring zero to one hundred. Maybe try adding a measure like zero to one. Then add a measure one to one hundred. Could work.
Another idea I have is from another rainmeter skin.
The code simply relies on the plugin for sound like always.

Measure=Plugin
Plugin=Win7AudioPlugin

I don't think using only sound levels and 14 images will produce desirable results; it is going to be very "jittery" unless more images are used and a more robust audio monitoring... but here is a starting point.

Images are in the skin folder so editing is easier.
Volume will affect image change by controlling the RMSGain.
This only has 6 images, really need more for smoother animation.

So, I was thinking about an easy way :0
I describe what a i have:

AsafataExample.PNG

I have this model with the normal code for the frames, i also have the same model but with the mouth opened
I think the easy way is put the two gif playing at the same time in the same position of the display but, the one with de mouth closed will be in front of the one with the mouth opened, i wanted to them swap places when the sound play :0 my asistant have a lot of frames (147) so im not sure to use the code that i used in the example (except if i can modify it for work with two diferent gif at the same time xD)
I dont know if im explaining good this idea xD

Btw, your code works good :0 and in the way i will use the skin looks great xD
but my problem is because the code is short for my material of gif (147 of mouth closed and 147 of mouth opened)

[eclectic-tech]

Okay, here is a better example skin 'AssistanStewardess' using just 2 images, but alternating them based on the audiolevel value.
It actually looks better than I thought

I still thinking, how can i use that with two gif xD
its possible play the gif 0-147 (or >=0 <=147) and if there is no sound, and when there is the sound level play the gif frames 148-296 (or >=148 <=296)
xD and i want to declare something like: if MeasureSpeaker 0-147 start with 3 (MeasureSpeaker 148-296 start with 151)
but in my point of view is more easy have two files folders with 0-147 of mouth opened and 0-147 of mouth closed, and just change between those two files folders
Im not sure how this works, sorry if I cant make something for an example D:

Its like declare two differents group of images,insteada of the exact quantity of images :0?
I were checking something like this

Code: Select all

IfCondition6=(MeasureSpeaker >= 0.4500) && (MeasureSpeaker <= 1) && ([ImagenNumberCalc] >= 0 <=147)
IfCondition4=(MeasureSpeaker >= 0.2500) && (MeasureSpeaker < 0.3500) && ([ImagenNumberCalc] >=148 <=296)

something like this i think :0 but it doesn't work

this is the full gif (I'm working in the mouth gif but is the same quantity of images 148)

Look at this code, I use identical frames, but dimmed one when sound is silent.

After seeing it in action, replace the values with your image info. You would use your 2 image sets; mouth open for [MeterSpeaking] and mouth closed for [MeterSilent], and increase the loop measure EndValue to your max number of frames.

It uses a single loop measure to drive the animation, and will show/hide 2 images based on sound/no sound; the transition should be almost seamless since the same loop measure is driving both images.

You did not show your mouth open GIF, but hopefully, it has a moving mouth as well as the swaying stewardess.
This should get you pretty close to your desired result.
