.mp3 files not playable on Safari

[clonecorp]

Hi, I've been using your program and I have to say it is really effective. There's a problem though. After uploading the file online to a server, the file can not be played on Safari. Everything works well on Chrome but nothing plays on Apple devices.

Somthing might be wrong with the codec or something when the files are generated. Is it something you can look into?

Also, neuronal voice sythesis has appeared on Amazon Polly. Is it possible to use these voices instead of the standard voice sythesis with your program?

Thanks.

Hello @clonecorp!
First of all, I am glad to hear you're finding this little tool useful :) Thank you for your feedback and time to post!

Unfortunately, the project hasn't been updated in a while so maybe some things went out of date with current standards. I am quite busy at the moment, but I hopefully will have time to look into it in early September.

Cheers,
Stache

Hello @StachePL,

Sure, no problem. I use another program to batch convert the .mp3 with a working codec so it can work on Safari meanwhile but it's pretty cumbersome when you have thousands of audio files to convert at once/

Let me know if you find anything.

Thank you.

Hello @StachePL,

Let me know if you have time to look into it. Same for the new neuronal voices Amazon added to their library.

Cheers,

Thanks

You can use any program to batch convert audio files. I don't remember the name of the one I used but as long as you can set the bitrate for the files (I used .mp3), the files will be playable on Safari once converted.

Hi,
it seems to me that the select box for the file format is not working properly.
I downloaded the code and changed the default value of "_fileFormat" in Form1.cs to be mp3 and re built the project.
and it seems to work now.
