Is it possible to play music in Java apps? I tried setting an .OGG file to play, but it doesn't seem to work in the Java runtime.
Also, I guess I'll just throw this question in here:
What is HWA?... or what does it stand for at least?

Cant answer your first question as I have no ogg files to test..
HWA - HardWare Accelerated
Normally I wouldn't have OGG files to test either. I had to convert this file from mp3. I figured I'd ask here before downloading software to convert it to the other supported extensions.
use audacity, free :)
This only exports files as mp3, ogg, and wav. I already tried OGG twice, MP3 needs an extension which is unsupported for Java builds, and WAV and AIF are way too uncompressed for an internet app. It seems OGG is the only feasible solution here, but it simply is not working in the Java build of my application. =/
probably because the built-in sound object hasn't been ported
So the sound should work when build 248 is officially released, right? Any word on when we can expect that yet?
long time off, CB is having to port a lot
I think I heard the answer to this question before. It was something like "as long as Java itself doesn't support native ogg playback, MMF2 won't" - but I could be wrong about it though.
No, I'm not working on the inbuilt sound. I don't know if Francois intends to implement it soon, but compressed formats are not native to Java so it may not happen for a while.
