Only Play Audio One Time Without Looping

[convolutionbbs]

I would like to use pifmrds to only play through a .wav file one time. I have a sequence of files that I would like to play in different orders. I saw another issue in here where the solution was "press ctrl-c". I want to run this in the background without me having to type this. One thought I had was to get the PID after executing, then run a kill command. However, I won't know when the audio is complete from the first playthrough.

I tried running: sudo ./pi_fm_rds -audio -

but I get Error: could not open stdin for audio input. (raspberry pi 2 with latest raspbian)

Even if that worked, I guess I would run other commands one at a time to pass to the standard audio.

I saw another post regarding using a for loop in a bash script - but pifmrds keeps iterating through the first .wav file it comes across.

Thanks!

yeah same problem with me i tried to change the c code and re"make" the code to get the new PiFmRds but with no sucess hope there is a solution for that

You can solve this by using the stdin option:

cat sound.wav | sudo ./pi_fm_rds -audio -
