Remind me - is this possible ?
I have a wav/mp3/etc - and I want to get this into Comfort to playback when someone presses the doorbell
How can we do this - with a UCM05 with audio board - ie connecting a PC to the line in input on the UCM audio daughter board. Do we record it somehow as a reminder message ??
TIA

Strange, I spent some mninutes replying to this but the message did not get posted
Yes, use a UCM/Audio with the MIC IN connected to the PC line out. Connect a speaker to UCM Speaker Out so you can hear the menu
Record a reminder message using Wizcomfort keypad emulator in user menu 2,5. Enter reminder number and # key
Press 4 for messages, 1 to record a message. then play your wav file
Press any key to end the recording
Now you can use the action play reminder numer on selected keypad or door station
If you want to play on your door station when someone presses the doorbell, assign the response to Mic Events > Doorbell

Results not good.
I\'ve tried from a PC (line out) and from a Sonos ZonePlayer Lineout (ZP80) - all i get is an awful recording, lots of sssssssssss and noise. very distorted.
ive tried a wav I was trying to use and a FLAC track - so the source is good.
Are there any settings for the recording quality ? its so distorted, you can hardly make out the recording.
