The link to the troubleshooter is missing an “e”
Should be:

Salem,
hmmm, that is strange. No idea why that would happen. You might try a different mp3 to see if it works. If so, you’ll know it is a problem with the original mp3 file.

I have followed the instructions to add an audio to a Flash in Lightroom v1.1 I’m on a MacPro Dual 10.4.10 - I’ve placed the mpeg-3 file into the resources folder, but when I play the html the audio file is running at high speed instead of normal speed. Any thoughts way this is happening? Thanks….. SK

Jens,
I’ve looked at your gallery (nice by the way) but could not see where the problem is. I’m guessing it is related to file paths. Try this: add anonther folder inside “resources” and name it “resources” also, and put a copy of the mp3 file in there. If that does not work download this file http://www.blufire.tv/blog/FlashGalleries/music_samplegallery/troubleshooter/bgmusic.swf

It is a troubleshooter version of bgmusic.swf. If you swap it into your build, it will show you wether the bgmusic.swf file is loading correctly, and whether it loading the mp3

Well - if you want delete the messages above…

Up at website I wrote the link to the galerie where normally music should start… you can have a look at the style.xml as well as on the rest of data by your browser. All names like you told.

Yours Jens

Have fun watching the galerie if you want (it contains Pink, Simon Webbe and more)

Well - the code is like you said, the mp3 works fine, the swf too… but the music won´t start, when I make a check by clicking the index.html to open the galery…

Sorry Jens, no idea. It definitely works for others though, so keep troubleshooting

ehm… no idea what me problem could be with the not starting sound?

By: Jens

Hi,

just tried it right you said - but no sound appeared when I started it in the browser directly from the harddisk.

What could be the reason, if the format and the name of the mp3 is right, the swf is in the resources as well and the style is edited like you wrote….

Thanks Jens
