Try using the "Play Audio" from Play Modes.
Hope this helps. :)
Yes But it must be encoded as a movie. You cannot play MP3 etc directly.
Put it onto a movie which is always black and use the Play Audio playmode.

Yeah, that's what I figured. Inconvenient to have to attach a movie to each clip I want to play, ah well.
But Catalyst IS a video playback system, not a jukebox after all!
All syncing and playback is frame based - the heart of what we are doing.
With the software available these days, its not too much effort to export audio as a quicktime file
Yes but it also IS a show controller which is what I use it for to test systems. Not for the video playback capability. SAMSC is End of Line so I had to upgrade to this and having to make a video file for every sound file I do is a waste 'o time.
Understood. Thanks :-)
I use audio movies in Catalyst all the time. Render them as black frame AIC at 160x120. I have done this with 31 audio files and one HD video file with no frame loss.
As an experiment, I made 30 black frame movies with an audio track each and initiated playback of all simultaneously. It worked like a multitrack playback. Didn't have hiccups
