Hello
Need some help with flash manager and default bootup of Audioweaver binaries.
OK. I can upload from Audioweaver to the hardware and run the script no problems.
I can convert the script to binary and upload that into flash memory with the boot option enabled. Also I can save the file on the flash to a file on the HD and do a file compare to make sure there is no file corruption. So far so good ;)
The problem I am having is when I reboot the hardware the AW binary is not being run automatically.
The other issue I noticed is that if I click on the file in the flash manager and click on "Execute File" I get the following.
Now if I go Audio -> "Audio Start" and then click on "Execute File" it's working ok so the issues are perhaps the Audio is not being started properly when the system is being reboot.
I must confess that I handle the Sport interrupt different on my system to your demo. On my system the SPORT interrupt is always enabled and I just gate the Audioweaver processing using a flag rather than disabling it when the Audio stops. Perhaps this is causing some issues if you are reading some of the sports registers to see if interrupts have been enabled or not.

Hello
I did a dump of the Flash Memory as Audioweaver reads it in but it appears to only read in a little bit and then gives up for some reason which would explain why it is not loading up the AWB file and running it. In fact it only reads in the first word of the AWB file !!

Just noticed one thing that the binary file does not contain the length of the command array at the end of it ?
And this is also reflected in the flash memory dump.

Hi David,
Could you please check the API's of awe_pltAudioStop() and awe_pltAudioStart() in your code? These functions should return 0 always, which is there in the reference BSP. I hope this helps.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
MM

Hi MM
Yes both resturn 0 as in the original calls. The only difference is I call my own versions of AudioStart() and AudioStop() which eseentially just sets a flag to bypass the Audioweaver interrupt code rather than shut down interrupts all together and restart them.
Seemed to work OK in the earlier BSP.
Regards
David

Hi David,
Please remove the statement
if (s_AudioRunning != 0)
{
return E_AUDIO_ALREADY_STARTED;
}
from StartAudio() or change it to
if (s_AudioRunning != 0)
{
return 0;
}
Similarly remove the statement
if (s_AudioRunning == 0)
{
return E_AUDIO_ALREADY_STOPPED;
}
from StopAudio() or change it to
if (s_AudioRunning == 0)
{
return 0;
}
Please try with above changes and let me know if you still find issues.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
MM

Yes that did the trick thankyou ;)
Is there a function call that retrieves information about the currently running file such as file name etc ?
Also it looks like you can add more than one AWB file to the flash memory drive so is there a way of loading these different configurations using their file name etc ?
Regards
David

Hey David,
We do not have a function that retrieves info about the currently running file. Nor can you specify which file to load by name alone.
The way to select which AWB file to load at startup is to set the attribute value to 26 when you write it to flash.
