Ess problem loading sound
Feb 29th, 2008, 5:56pm  
Hi,

I am new with processing and I want to use the Ess. library. I downloaded & placed it in my processing libraries folder and written some code that calls an audio file whenever the mouse is clicked. However, when I compile it I get this message in my monitor : unable to load sound. I've tried both .wav and .mp3 files but none of them works. Any help please?

Thanx,
Myrto

I had to do the same as you but I didn't manage. Finally I used the minim library that is more simple.

funny, cause i just came on to look for a solution to the same problem and it was the first post.

im guessing its got something to do with the encoding of the mp3, some meta data being injected into it. works fine with an aif file i used from one of the ESS examples.
