PB with audio files #1 (permalink) Wed Dec 01, 2010 16:37 pm   PB with audio files
 

Hello,

I have problems with the audio files available on the forum.
First one works perfectly well but the following ones don't. Each time I try to listen to an audio file, I get the "file not found" message.

Could you help me please?

Frank.

Hi Frank, can you please give me the address of such a file?

HI,

this one for example
http://www.english-test.net/lessons/7/index.html

This is the one I've listened to one hour ago and now, I have the "file not found" message.

The behavioir is the same with other audio files (eg : TOEIC listening samples)

I still have the pb with this page :
http://www.english-test.net/toeic/listening/is_new_york_time_ahead_of_us_or_behind_us.html
audio file works fine but when I try to select another one, it doesn't.

As strange as it may seem, I can only listen to one audio file on a defined page of the site.

How do you get from one file to the next? There is only one audio file per page so you need to click on the 'next exercise' button. Is that what you do?

No, I usually click on the file link (in the column on the left of the actual file + text).
After trying the "next exercise" button, I have the same result....

Hi Frank, we've been checking the audio files on our site several times again but haven't been able to see the error you mentioned. All the audio files are replaying fine no matter how many of them we open at the same time. Can you please try again?

Many thanks,
Torsten

Hi Torsten,

I still have the same behavior (IE or Firofox).
Is there a specific Java configuration (or something like this) to be able to use the audio features?
Because I suppose the problem is on my side...
Thanks for your help anyway.

Frank.

Hi Frank, what operating system do you use? Also, would it be possible for you to create a screenshot/snapshot of the error message you keep getting?

Many thanks,
Torsten

Hi,
my laptop is under Windows XP SP3. I've no error message, except the "File not found" display on the progress bar of the audio file (I know, it's not very helpful...). How can I send you a screenshot?

I also think that some other members have already encountered this problem (http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic33066.html) but I can't find any description of how they resolved it.

You can use a free program such as Jing to create a screenshot. Then you can upload them to the forum.
