QSoundEffect(pulseaudio): Error decoding source

[Evgeny Siberia]

Hi. Why sound doesn't play?
I tried use mp3 from recources, but it didn't help. What am I doing wrong?
The click.mp3 located the same folder's level as MainWindow.

QT       += core gui
QT       += multimedia

void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
{
    QSound::play("./click.mp3");
}

Hi
well you ask it to load it from the current folder which would be the build folder
once the app runs. ( not the project folder)
try to put it there.

Also Im not sure QSound does support mp3 files. all samples i saw always use *.wav.

I converted to wav, but it didn't help.

Hi,

As @mrjj you should also copy the file in your build folder since you are using a relative path.

@mrjj
Thank you!
It helped, but why It doesn't work from recources?

[SGaist]

Your path is not a resource path.

@SGaist
Shurely, I changed code. And I copied path (right click on the recource file in Qt -> copy path)

QSound *s = new QSound(":/main/click.wav");
s->play();

Updated: all are working, my wrong, thank you.
