1) The source is available via the "Project Site" link up top
2) I don't have a lot of time, sure, but there's also not much that's been requested. I have been meaning to look into the center-screen message thing, but whatever.
3) 'Play sound when muted' doesn't work? Why hasn't anybody filed a ticket on that? I personally don't mute my sounds so I wouldn't know, I'm just using the documented API that's supposed to ignore muting.
Ok I just tested and "Play sound when muted" definitely works. Are you sure you're muting the sound, and not simply dropping the Master volume to 0%? "Play sound when muted" only comes into play if you press Ctrl-S and see "Sound Effects Disabled".
It's something I'm interested in doing, I just haven't had any time to work on any addons lately. But as soon as I have some time again, this is at the top of my list.
awesome, oh ya and a toggle for which dungeons will alert you along with class, personally i don't wanna have to do cata heroics only twilight because the tanks blow in heroics =)
load out of date addon is checked, i have dbm ,npcscan, recount,grid,omnicc and libSharedMedia installed and still i get no sound from the addon options :/ Anything else i should try installing?
Worked for me well , great addon. But for some reason about 1 week now there's no sound playing when an LFG call to arms pops up and i have to randomly mouse over the minimap button to see if a satchel is available. At the addon options there is no sound file available , at the drop down menu for the Sound all i see is "none", any idea on what might have caused this ?
Maybe you uninstalled the addon that was providing the sound you were using? LFG Call to Arms Broker doesn't ship with any sounds, it just picks up sounds provided by other addons.
Thanks for the reply, but no i didn't uninstall any addon :/ I tried reinstalling the addon , didn't work. Which addon should i download to get the sounds?
Works very well, very useful addon for tanks and healers.
Some random ideas:
1. Profile based settings. That way I can set my tank to one, healer to another (although they seem to always come at the same time, not sure if that will ever change) and turn it off automatically for dps (or set dps on, but I think we'll never see a call to arms dps).
2. Setting where if you have been idle or have sound off then it puts a notifier on your screen and you can snooze it for some amount of time.
3. Possibly a setting for autoqueue. As soon as the Call to Arms happens, it queues you (not sure if this is possible or not).
Any chance of getting a visual notification on screen? When i have my music on I don't hear any of those alerts as they are not very loud. Other than that, the addon does exactly what it says. Thanks :)
I would love to see this! Amazing addon, but sometimes I dont hear the sound go off. Would it be the possible for a centered screen popup, maybe with a join queue or dismiss button?
You can't just put the sound in a directory. It needs to be bundled with an addon and registered with LibSharedMedia. Unfortunately I don't know of any easy way for end-users to do this.

I don't understand what your complaint is.

I've been waiting patiently for you to implement a screen message to appear but It's been a while so is there any chance of that sometime soon?

Maybe you forgot to check "Load Out of date Addons" after the 4.3.2 patch?
I'm really not sure what addons provide sounds and what doesn't. All I know is I have a lot of addons installed, and I have a lot of sounds available.
Would you ever consider making this a stand alone addon to remove the requirement of a broker based addon such as Titan or anything similar?
This addon also supports displaying itself as a minimap button. Does that work for you without a Data Broker host?

Sorry for slow reply to this I've been on a UK tour visiting relatives over the festive season :)
I've got titan bar installed but its not showing any sound files for LFG/CTABroker would it be difficult to allow users to add their own sound files ?
I would love to use a custom sound from a site like http://soundjax.com/alarm-1.html that would be impossible to miss :)

What type of notification were you thinking? Screen flash? Some sort of message?
Some sort of message would be best I think. If you could get it to come up in the middle of the screen like a raid warning or somthing?
I'm on vacation right now, but I'll see what I can do when I get back home.

Hi Skyfawn,
