Upload problems (yet again) 2005-07-16 01:42:04 Reply

Hello Peeps,

I'm new and tried to upload some of my songs.
They were created in PCM (.wav) format and
I've tried to use Goldwave, Audio Converter Pro,
and CDex to convert the .wav into mp3
(mpeg-1 layer3) files, but in vain. I've browsed
several threads, and seen some suggestions
(such as using CDex which didn't work)... and I'm
all out of ideas.

Also, whenever I try to upload a really short loop
instead of giving me the not-an-mp3 nonsense,
it says the track "seems to be empty" when it's
obviously not empty.

Thanks for all the help,
~ Ratatosk.

Yeah I know, I tried submitting my .mp3 files which it would accept. I didn't try windows mp3 codecs though as they output into a .wav file. I double checked everything... I'm encoding everything into 128 kbps 44100 Hz .mp3 files, but NG won't accept them for some reason. What are some other programs you guys use (that work)?

Thanks for the help,
~ Ratatosk.

Sorry, typo error in previous post: I meant Newgrounds would *not* accept my seemingly properly converted mp3 files. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks again for all the help,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

iTunes successfully converted an .mp3 file that NG accepted!
So much for all those other fancy schmancy audio programs...

Thanks for all the help guys, you guys are great!
