I think the best option is to.add a custom music for your menu theme.

I have a little code for this on my computer.
Something like fe.add music....

I'll paste later if you want.

yes please.......thankx

Code: [Select]

// sound
local mysong = fe.add_sound("music.mp3");

mysong.file_name = music.mp3";
mysong.loop = true;
mysong.playing = true;

where would you put this code? in the layout.nut file for the display?

[jedione]

just put the code into the layout.nut file of the theme that is being used as your display-menu
then drop an mp3 file into the layout,  make sure to rename it of course!

done.

doh nevermind figured it out. Thanks!

I do have one more problem with this script. When I exit a game back to the theme, the music no longer plays. Any way around this?

It has been discussed in forums before and cocluded that it is bug in AM,   
Maybe will be fixed in future release
