Built a Power BI variant of the animal "See 'n Say" toy for one of my young kids. Features a custom "visual" that plays the associated noise when you click on an animal.

Audio tested in Edge, FF, and Chrome. Hopefully works elsewhere.

Great! Which visual do you used for the sound?

[yoshihirok]

Nice.

I want to use the sound visual.

[deldersveld]

Unfortunately only PBI Service will render sound using URLs for audio. Desktop shows the controls but will not play audio. Otherwise, I would submit to the Gallery for broader use.

Have you used “Scatter chart” for the sound visual? Which visual you are using for calling sound into Power BI report? Have you added links for each sound to your dataset?

[deldersveld]

Sound is accomplished using a Custom Visual, not the Scatter Chart. Links to mp3s online where included in the original dataset.

Good job! I would like to konw how to create the filter part.

I make a list of HTML and put it into the HTML visual, however, mutiple MP3 players appear if I do not select any value in the filter, just like the picture I upload.

Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately this didn't use the HTML Viewer visual but a separate custom visual that's not up-to-date with the current API. You might be able to add X number of HTML Viewers and use visual level filters to get the options down to one per visual.

While the audio in this "report" was originally generated using a custom visual I built, you can attempt sound on your own without having to build your own custom visual. Now that we have the HTML Viewer custom visual, if I ever went back to recreate this content, I would use the HTML Viewer. https://dataveld.com/2017/12/24/adding-audio-or-video-to-a-power-bi-report/
