    double-check the name of the file. CASE MATTERS.

    the documentation says that it'll look in the sketch folder and the data subdirectory for the file.

    i copied the name right from the file. What the second part mean?

  • koogskoogs

    say you have a sketch called Music.pde

    you have a directory in sketchbook called Music

    according to that it'll look for your file as ~/sketchbook/Music/data/oChristmasTree.mp3 and then ~/sketchbook/Music/oChristmasTree.mp3

    this is standard for image and music files

    it still not working. I even tried loading the file with the button. I don't got time for this program to mess up I need to finish this.

    Drag the file onto the processing ide and it'll copy or to the right place. There's menu item called something like 'add file to sketch' that'll do the same thing if you can't drag and drop.

    If that doesn't work then your file might not be compatible.

    What is the exact error on the console?

    Does the example sound player work (from the examples menu)?

    Does the example audio file work with your code? Does your file work with the example code?

    yes it example works, is there like a site with music that will work? I found a way for it to work I just need to turn the music on while they watch it. I better go find my jukebox.

    If the example works then it's either your code or your file.

    If the example works with your file then it's your code that is wrong.

    If your code works with the example file then the problem is your file.

    (We don't have your file, we can't tell you the problem)

    Try an other download manager.
