Sound Not Working

Post by Brittgriscom » Wed Mar 30, 2011 10:25 am

I can not get any of my sounds to play in the simulator. They are in wav and aif formats. I have seen something here about SpecialFolderPath:engine paths. Could that be the problem? Could someone explain them to me?

PS: I have already added the relevant folder in the standalone application settings.

Hi Britt,

welcome to the forum.

I am afraid that iOS does not support these sound formats.
To be shure convert your sound files into 3gp (small low quality) or m4v (also small, a little better). The Quicktime Player converts to this format if you choose save as and choose for iPhone.
see also this thread with an example stack and sound file

Kind regards
