Flash audio / MP3 cannot be heard in an ebook - Troubleshooting



If you have a Flash movie that should play MP3 audio and you hear nothing, then you may need to turn the "Use the built-in protocol instead of HTTP" environment option on.environment options
Then recompile your publication & it should work.

Another solution

Another solution is to specify the full URL to the mp3 you want to play starting by ghe://heserver.
In the following sample, the Flash MP3 player is instructed to play "ghe://heserver/test.mp3" and not just "test.mp3".
