Music on WebOs not working for me

Hello,

I compiled all of my games for WebOS and everything seems to work except the music. Sound effects are fine but music does not work on any of them. Just silent. I used MP3s. Is there somethign I am missing for WebOS? I did some searching on the forums and could not find anything on this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary

Can you try OGG?

If ogg works, I think I should implement OGG into Win32 binaries, so we have a sound format that work on all platforms. Really stupid.

On my game SANDSCAPE I use .AAC audio files and they work on both, iOS and WebOS.

Spots uses mp3 and they play fine.

Thanks for the responses. I am at work now. I'll try .ogg files tonight. I have 3 games that all use mp3 for music and wav for sound effects. One of the games has 1 mp3 that does play. I suspect this has something to do with the bitrate.

Yes, check the rates for the other two

I got it figured it out.  I tried .ogg and some other formats with no luck. Then I started over with MP3 and resampled them in Audacity. I had the frequency fairly low to keep file size down. When I made all the files 44100 they worked. Some of my .wavs played very fast and that was fixed also once I resampled them and exported them. I got about all my WebOS issues resolver now. My music not playing was frequency, my buttons not working I changed to mouse position and not collision. Only other things I need to figure out is why my global screen does not work. It tracks the top 50 high scores on the Internet. When you get to the page you can touch and scroll through the names. That part is not working at all on WebOS. When you touch the screen to scroll it does nothing

Thanks for the advice.
