I can't get this wav file to play. It plays fine in Windows but when I deploy it to the droid it doesn't work. I'm compiling it through the Eclipse Environment with the device attached. I'm testing on a Samsung Galaxy III. Mp3 files played just fine.

I save the file from audacity 1.3 beta(Unicode) at 16 bit which is the only format it lets you choose from.

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Enterprise Edition.
Tier 2 Template version 1.07
Eclipse Indigo


Here is the code.

Did you remember to copy the wave file into your <androidproj>/assets directory and is the file name spelled with exactly the same case as you use in your code? (Android is Linux based and is case sensitive.)

Yes. It's in the assets folder and the case is the same.

It's posted up above in the same file. I thought I copied the newest file onto the site.

Do you think bit rate could be the coulprit?

It is possible that 16 bit is not okay on Android.

All of my wav files are "Wave PCM unsigned 8 bit,<varied Hz>,<varied kbps>,mono" and work fine all all tested devices (iOS 5.1/6.0, Android 3.2/4.1).

I use a purchased app (GoldWave) to manipulate my files and it lets me set all sorts of styles.

I'm going to try to convert the wavs to your specs to see if that makes a different.

Thanks! I will keep you posted.

Thanks, Ancient Lady, that worked.

Now, next question. Is that an AppGameKit limitation or is it a Android limitation? Kinda of hard to believe that these new phones can't play 16 bit wav files.

Anyway, on to the next obstacle.

Android is Linux based and very case sensitive.
