Problems with background music

Can someone help?
I put in codes to have background music on our board. Now it seems that in the middle of the song playing, the song stops for a few seconds and then starts again.
I have used ripway but it tells me my account is inactive and I know it's not true. I used zupload and the same thing is happening. Can you guys check to see what I'm going wrong?
Thank you

This is an issue with your song and how you uploaded it. It's not a ProBoards issue or even a coding issue from what you said.

Thank you I will up load again and see it takes care of it.

If it doesn't, just BUMP this thread later and I will be on the look out.

I did and it still happens.

Question - Would it be possible for me to combine the audio files (I've uploaded them with ripway)so they play one right after the other? Is there a code somewhere? or is that going to cause each song to start over if I or the members navigate around the board.

I was told that my board is in M mode. What does that mean and how do I fix it.
Thank you

It means that no one can view the board except for staff members. To disable it, there is an option in general settings in your admin area.

I don't see anything under general settings. I'm I looking in the wrong place?

It should be the first option after board title. 'Maintenance Mode'

[fanofmbac]

It's says NO should I change it to YES?

[Martyn Dale]

Its not in MMode, its just set that guests must register to access the forum, it has a similar appearnce to the mmode screen if you are a guest

I've changed it so guests can visit(so you guys can see)

OK I see now.


The code I was given works but what is happening is when you click on the song you want to hear is plays but stops and several seconds and then starts again. it does that several times during the song.
I have re-uploaded the songs again. Is it possible for me to combine the audio files (I've uploaded them with ripway)so they play one right after the other? Is there a code somewhere? or is that going to cause each song to start over if I or the members navigate around the board.

It's starting to look like I won't be able to have music on the board.

when I clicked to listen to the music I got this message--->"This account has either been suspended or is inactive. To restore an inactive account, simply login, or contact the customer service department"

That is what happens when I use ripway. I will change it to use zupload. Can you check then?

Ripway free accounts only allow 3.80 mb daily bandwidth which is not awhole heck of alot for sound files, you can get one of their paid accounts for more bandwidth or find another host.

I'm not using the free, I've upgraded to plan b which is 100mb
