I'm trying to embed a sound file inline into a beamer so i don't need to carry the sound file around with the pdf.
Currently I place sound files into my beamer with the multimedia package and this command:
\movie[inlinesound]{\fbox{Play}}{igottafever.wav}
For some reason the \sound
command gives scrambled static. But the inlinesound
option apparently doesn't work with \movie
. QUESTION 1: Is there some inline option for \movie
?
All the examples I see with media9 are of audio streams from online. QUESTION 2: How do I place a local file into a pdf with media9?
This is not working:
\includemedia[flashvars={source=igottafever.wav}]{\fbox{Play}}{APlayer.swf
Throws an Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file://PDFMedia022077/invalid in Acrobat X

The only sound file format that can be played back is
mp3
. To embed local resource files (a sound file in the present case) into the PDF, use optionaddresource
and adjust thesource
FlashVar accordingly.Embedded sound file example:
