Hello all,
since updating to V12 (stable 7 build 331) I experience odd behaviour with some audio files. Whereas a few files still play normally if selected from the playlist others will not. For those tracks not working they are still shown under “Currently playing” but there is no duration of the track shown.
I can however play all music files directly from The Forge in my Asset library.
The error message displayed in the console for those tracks that are no longer functional is shown below.
Hi there
Hmm, I’m uncertain why the audio buffer is failing to load in the browser from inside of Foundry specifically when it previously was, but .mp3 files are notorious for having streaming issues.
One thing you could try is to use the optional Forge More Awesomeness module which helps resolve some issues when streaming audio from CDN.
If that doesn’t resolve it, another recommendation would be to change the format over to .ogg, which works much better for streaming in my personal experience
Thanks for the suggestion to move away from mp3 files. Will certainly do for future files!
Meanwhile I realized that the audio issue I am struggling with appears to be browser related. While I have similiar issues with Firefox and Chrome, it appears to be just fine with Edge…
So if anyone has similar issues just try a different browser.
Hopefully this is resolved by future browser updates.
