no audio, problem with ogg/mp3?

[Wdvretuow]

Hi there,

Over the past days I've been working with the melonJS tutorial to create a simple 2d game. I'm really happy with it but now I've stumbled onto a problem I can't solve. I've done everything told in step 7 of the tutorial, I even changed the line me.audio.init("mp3,ogg"); to me.audio.init("mp3", "ogg"); (which at least let me load the game again) but although all of the code is there, the game doesn't play any of the sounds on my macbook (Chrome, Safari, Firefox). I've had it tested on a windows pc and that didn't work either.

Does anyone know what might cause this problem? Here's some of the code I used:

example from resources.js

{name: "dst-inertexponent", type: "audio", src: "data/bgm/", channel : 1},

{name: "jump", type: "audio", src: "data/sfx/", channel: 1},

{name: "cling", type: "audio", src: "data/sfx/", channel: 2},

{name: "stomp", type: "audio", src: "data/sfx/", channel: 1}

example from entitites.js

// play some audio

me.audio.playTrack("jump");

example from play.js

// play the audio track

me.audio.playTrack("DST-InertExponent"); 

example from game.js

// add "#debug" to the URL to enable the debug Panel

if (document.location.hash === "#debug") {

window.onReady(function () {

me.plugin.register.defer(debugPanel, "debug");

});

}

// Initialize the audio.

me.audio.init(".mp3",".ogg");

I actually read somewhere it might have something to do with the window.onReady(function () code, but since I'm pretty new with java (I'm surprised I've got this far!) I don't have a clue what to do. 

I hope some genius out here can help me! Cheers.

I have the 0.9.7 build in one of my games, and the audio works fine. It should be initialized via:

me.audio.init("mp3,ogg");

Also, your onReady function call seems odd to me. Generally that's where you call me.video.init, pass in the resources array to the loader, etc. I follow a pretty close example to the tutorial, and it's worked out well for me so far :)

I replaced it with me.audio.init("mp3,ogg"); but then the loader won't work:

I'm also using 0.9.7, so I'm not sure what's the problem :( Would it help if I'd send you the code? 

<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/melonJS-0.9.7-min.js"></script>

Can either host the code on a web site somewhere, or put it in a zip. Is there a console error? About 95% of the time the app doesnt load, it's cause an error occurred with loading a resource.

Thanks, I've emailed you the link to the site I'm hosting the js.

Ouch, got it. It was just a typo in the file name. Thanks a lot!

Yup, i got it. So when i loaded up the page, it had trouble loading dst-inertexponent.ogg. Double check that the file is there, and that you have the directory specified correctly.

It could be a permissions thing, but i'd imagine you wouldn't have an issue on your own machine.

Hey Aaron,

I'm hosting the game right here: http://www.chillground.nl/bagage

That's the version with me.audio.init("mp3", "ogg"); still in it (and it works, kinda). 

Here's the link to the loader that isn't working: http://www.chillground.nl/bagage2.

Cheers,

Wouter

Ok, I've got it! It was just a stupid little typo in the dst-inertexponent.ogg file. Thanks!

The onReady lines are from the boilerplate: https://github.com/melonjs/boilerplate/blob/master/js/game.js#L12

[Aaron McLeod]

Ah okay, wasn't sure. I can see that there's another one being called here: https://github.com/melonjs/boilerplate/blob/master/index.html, which calls the function loading that. So i wonder, is that window.onReady there necessary, since it's being called from within one?

[Jay Oster]

Probably not. It was pretty much copy-pasted from my template, which runs similar code in a completely different context: https://github.com/blipjoy/template/blob/master/public/js/config.js#L27

[Aaron McLeod]

ah neat. Didn't know we had a boilerplate to be honest. Might check it out for my spine stuff.
