Do you think it's possible? I know the stinger is an image sequence so it could be impossible to assign an audio. What do you think about? (I know that DWAM will say: "use API" eheheheheh but as he knows I don't know API programming language). Do you think there is a different way?

What you can do is set the audiofile as a multiview source for your image sequence input. This works, I just tried. eheheheheh

EDIT: DWAM just wrote the same answer :D :D :D

The trick to adding audio to an Image Sequence is to use the "Multiview" feature and add the audio as an oveverlay. Hope that helps some. Ice EDIT: you gotta be quick if you want to beat Guillaume to the punch! lol I had to take a call before completing my post, by the time I got back to it and posted, I was already trumped...

Trigger method doesn't work for a stinger as it is not considered as a "regular" input, thus "OnTransitionIn" or "OnOverlayIn" conditions are not effective.

From Martin himself... Not tested Quote: There is some undocumented support for sounds with image sequences that I didn't have time to add to the UI in 16. If you create a wav or mp3 file with the same name as the first image it will be loaded and used automatically. So if image001.png is the first image set the sound to be image001.png.wav

The audio file must be present in the same folder of the image sequence BEFORE to add a stinger. If you add the stinger and after that you add the music to the folder, it doesn't work. Actually there is a problem: if you have a music longer than the image sequence, it goes on even after the transition (with multiview method this not happens). So, I think that the better method to add music to a stinger is the multiview.

However it also cuts audio abruptly when the sequence ends, so it is not nice and smooth as stinger should be.

So, I think that the better method to add music to a stinger is the multiview. I have found the Multiview method to not work well for me. A simple swoosh WAV that is timed with the stinger starts in the middle of the audio and at other times does not play at all. Using the file renaming method words perfectly. It is also useful when playing a swoosh for the audio to extend past the stinger transition (which is a "feature" of using this method).
