Hi all,

WME seems to have a problem playing the sound in my Theora videos.

When I click the video in ProjectMan, the preview screen says "Error Loading Sound", and this is what "ProjectMan.log" says:

10:39: ov_open_callbacks failed, result=-132
10:39: Error creating sound buffer for file 'video\vid2.ogg'
       returned: E_FAIL
10:39: Error loading sound 'video\vid2.ogg'
       returned: E_FAIL

The source file was an uncompressed AVI with WAV audio, and I've tried creating the Theora with VLC and ffmpeg2theora (0.19) - same problem.

The Theoras play fine in VLC and Window Media Player - just not in WME.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

ProjectMan won't play Theora videos, it can only play the sound (Vorbis) ogg files. How about in-game, do the videos play?

Ooops - sorry - I didn't think it would play the video, but I guess I assumed it would play the sound from the video in the preview window, since it said "error playing sound".

Anyway - the sound doesn't play in the game either - the video plays, but not the sound. 

I'm just using this to play the video:

Code: WME Script

1. Game.PlayTheora("video\vid2.ogg");
2.

As long as the sound is encoded with Vorbis (is it?) it should play.

Must have been something to do with VLC - I changed some things in the audio settings, converted the video again, and now the audio plays. 

Thanks.
