MP3 Playback on AROS

[Allanon]

Hello,
I'm not able to reproduce any MP3 music on AROS, I've tried several musics, all working on OS4 and on AROS using mplayer but using this simple code Hollywood tell me that the sound format is unknown:

Code: Select all

OpenMusic(1, "Ram:test.mp3")
PlayMusic(1)

Repeat
   WaitEvent
Forever

Ofcourse I've an mp3 named "test.mp3" in ram disk

Please help, that's a very important feature...

No one can try to open and play an mp3 under AROS?

Sorry, no AROS available here right now. Unfortunately I have no time for dealing with that right now ... If you could wait 2 more weeks I can and will give it a try.

But I hope, someone else could help you earlier.

Greetings!
