Hi,
Is it possible to play sound samples in WAV and/or WVE formats using OPL for Nokia 92xx ?
Why no games that I know don't do it ?
I haven't had success trying to configure my Nokia 92xx emulator for Windows to play sounds and test the OPL sound features...
Thanks in advance,

Short Answer: Ther is no wave sound support, only for beeps. It's on the OPL Runtime list of 'things to do' inside Symbian.
Medium Answer: There is a partialy solution that allows you to play sound synchronously (a quick search on Symbian Dev.Net's OPL newsgroup will find the source - I'll try and dig it out to put up here later tonight) but your program will not do anything while the sound is playing. Which is a bit pants.
Long Answer: A big rewrite is needed, and the guy working on it hasn't quite figured it out yet. If one of the C++ people fancy writing an OPX to play asynchronous sound for OPL, then I for one will be the first to grba it, offer up a sacrifice to them and get some jolly bings and whistles in my apps.
While on this subject support for 4/8channel MODs would be nice in a playback OPX.
Hi,
I think this is the example cited above.
Some functions seemed to be asynchronous because they have "A" in the end, like "GetEventA32".
Thanks for the excelent answers to my post.

mmmz 😊 They seem to work quite nicely.
Maybe due to the change of Internet server, the attached file was missing.
Now I attach it again.

Has it yet been figured?
