Sounds Help

shodai · **Sounds Help -** 05-22-2012, 10:43 AM

I am trying to have music play in the background and when I use the play sound function I get an error. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Some sounds just won't play in alice. It doesn't seem to relate to file type, though, because even for .wav files, some work and some don't. Try using different music.

Maybe this is just me.

Upload your sound (zip it), I could probably fix it.

I was wondering does the length of music affect it too?

I don't think so, but it does increase the filesize.

I have attached the file that I am trying to use.

There, fixed it.
Click me to download music file

What tends to work is importing the sound into Audacity and then exporting as a WAV. Audacity does a nice job of it, it works for mp3s or wav files that won't play in Alice.
