The sound player is a config player that's used to control sounds. (This player is part of the MPF media controller and only available if you're using MPF-MC for your media controller.)

See Sounds, Music & Audio and How to setup sound for your machine for details.

Usage in config files

In config files, the sound player is used via the sound_player: section. Event names that will trigger sound actions are nested sub-headings and sound names are either listed as nested sub-headings below that.

Usage in shows

In shows, the sound player is used via the sounds: section of a step.
