How do I play an MP3 in MMF2?
I saw the DirectShow object and MP3 mentioned under the 'Audio' object section. I inserted the DirectShow object and gave it an MP3 to play, but it would not play.
What is wrong?

I bet your path or something is getting mess up.

Attached is a little example.


I think some better choices are:
- Convert your MP3 files to an OGG and use the internal sound engine
or
- Get the SWF/Flash Export Module that will add MP3 to the internal sound engine

One issue with using MP3 is if you sell your game and its popular you have to pay the MP3 people.
I am not sure what the current numbers are but you can find out via doing a google.

I would just go with OGG if possible. You can find a bunch of free converter tools online.
