Hello,

Impossible to me to play wav, where is the error?
The file is added of course with the file manager

B4X: 
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
   sd.Initialize (1)
   id=sd.Load(File.DirAssets, "Ding.wav")
   Log(id) 'return 1
   ret=sd.Play ( id, 0.5, 0.5, 1, 0, 0)
   Log(ret) 'return always 0
End Sub

I found the explanation on this forum, it is not possible to load a file and to play it at once!

If I puts a stop point between the load and the play, it works

How to know if the file is ready to be to play?

Can't load a .wav file ?

Hi guys,
I found something interesting while attempting to play a sound file.

This works:

mp.Load(File.DirAssets, "ballgame.mid")
mp.Play


This does not: (i get file not found error on the device)

mp.Load(File.DirAssets, "crowdCheer1.wav")
mp.Play

If I replace the filename then it works. Both files exist in the same folder.
The same thing happens when I try an .mp3 file. Only the .mid file will play while the others cause a file not found error.

I checked with android dev to ensure I'm supplying the correct compression for the files. But this error says the file isn't found.

Can't load a .wav file ? FIXED Duh..

I renamed the .wav file in all lowercase and also changed the reference to the file to all lowercase. Now it works.
