             QSoundEffect effect;
             effect.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("1.mp3"));
             effect.setLoopCount(QSoundEffect::Infinite);
             effect.setVolume(50);
             effect.play();

I think it's telling you that you cannot (and I'll add should-not) attempt to use mp3 for the purpose you describe. Try loading a raw PCM file like WAV format instead.

i tried to use a wav file but it generates the same error(QSoundEffect(qaudio): Error decoding source)

Where do you put this wav file? Try to use the full path.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

You are using a relative path so your application will not find the file as it is not located in the same folder.

On an unrelated not, please give your thread a meaningful title and put the actual text of your enquiry as the body of the post along with your code.
