Dear all,
I have problem when trying to compile and run my script. I have upload the pictures needed in the script but the following error message ocurred:
ERROR: no_matching_bitmap_file_found
In your bitmaps section, you have a stimulus called "instructions"
There is no matching bitmap file found.
I am sure that the picture format is capable for psytoolkit since the same picture can be recognized in another script I created earlier. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks.

Have you compared both scripts, the one that shows your bitmap "instructions" and the one that does not? Is there something different between the two?

Both scripts are almost identical, except that the script with the error message additionally used some sounds. It seems that I have figured out the cause of this issue. I uploaded sound files and pictures in the experiment, and the error message occured. When I commented the lines in the 'sound' section, the script worked well. So, I guess there may be a limit of size of all the files uploaded and used in the experiment? Still not sure about that... |

I assume this has been solved.

I assume this has been solved. Since my experiment has to use both sound and picture stimuli, I am still confused about this issue. The script can run normally ONLY without the sounds. When I try to include both sounds and bitmaps, the error message still pops out. I wonder if 50 sounds and 50 bitmaps are too much for an experiment in psytoolkit? It's very wired because I did have built another experiment sucessfully, which also had both sounds and bitmaps. |

No, you can use as many sounds and bitmaps as you like. If you send me the name of your experiment, I will have a look at it in detail. psytoolkit@gmx.com

I would like to report the same compiling issue with an experiment using both sounds and images. I can confirm that I do indeed have the properly named images (both in .png and .jpg, since I was troubleshooting). The error appeared when I had the images as .png, continued to appear after renaming the files and updating the script accordingly, and still happens after trying .jpg. I have emailed psytoolkit@gmx.com but thought I would report it on the public forum as well in case this is a bug. Any help is appreciated -- thank you! |

You are correct, thanks for reporting, there is a bug. There will be a missing file, but it does not correctly say which file is missing.
Also, do not start files with a number.
In the next version, this will be fixed.

I have had this problem with soundfiles. The following message appeared:
ERROR: no_matching_sound_file_found
You have a stimulus called left_ear_beep.mp3
There is no matching sound file found.
For example if you have a sound section with an image called "music",
there should be a matching file music.mp3 (or other sound file
format).
