soundplayer not loading samples

linux
1

hey folks,

i’m pretty new to working on ubuntu, but so far everything so good except for sound. anybody else having trouble on 8.04? I can’t remember if I had sound on previous versions or not (i don’t think I ever tried…)

the sound example apps all compile nicely and run, but won’t load any files (everything is in the correct folders etc.)

  
  
./cb_build_runner.sh soundPlayerFFTExample_debug true false  
ofSoundPlayer: Could not load sound file data/sounds/jdee_beat.mp3   
ofSoundPlayer: Could not load sound file data/sounds/ow.mp3   
ofSoundPlayer: Could not load sound file data/sounds/dog.mp3   
ofSoundPlayer: Could not load sound file data/sounds/rooster.mp3

thanks,
chris

Hi Chris

I’m on ubuntu 8.04 and it works without problem for me. Note that linux is case sensitive, perhaps is that?

well, after rebooting it works! i had been using the music player to play some mp3s and it looks like that was interfering somehow…

hmm… so I’ve got sound playing but have trouble with the playback - lots of stuttering sort of like the playback can’t keep up. any suggestions?
