How would we know when we get reviews? Would that be implemented into the Notification button on the top? or rid of altogether? Thanks.

Are you sure you have the correct version?
You could try removing the Flash player completely and then reinstalling the latest version.

Yes, I updated to the version that I was linked to from the song's page.

clear cache? Are you using chrome?

I tried installing and then clearing the cache, and I may as well try that again, but it didn't work last time. I'm on Firefox right now.

If you are having trouble uploading an MP3, could you e-mail it to me at mike@newgrounds.com?

Adobe unfortunately dropped support for Mac OS X Leopard (10.5), so if you're using an older Mac, you unfortunately can't update to Flash Player 11. :( The audio portal is designed to fallback with an HTML5 audio tag in this case, but this doesn't work in Firefox -- it can't play MP3 files due to licensing issues.

I'm going to put a Flash Player 10 compatible fallback in the very near future, but in the meantime you can try using a different browser, like Safari or Chrome.

I just threw a fix up for the MP3 uploads -- if you were having trouble uploading MP3s before, try now and see if it works. If you're still having problems, please let me know!

Nobody else with that problem?
I think the old audio player on newgrounds was much better! The old one didn't falter and rattle.
I am using Windows XP (32 Bit) and the newest flash player (deleted the old one and installed the new one).

Often, the sound rattles when you are in another windows (of your browser) or another tab.
Yep, the old audio player was better. Never change a running system....

There should be a function to switch between the new and the old audio player.

I have a really bad bug when listening to audio, when playing the sound glitches and it kind of repeats the same sound sample over and over for a couple of seconds, it does this very often, and on every song I try to listen to, any advice? At first I thought the song I was listening to was just bad electronic music but I tried listening to something from the "classical" section and get the same kind of sound..

I don't think an option to remove audio is too much to ask for.

Hey!
I have a bug where my project wouldn't publish properly for a while, but after randomly trying over and over it eventually published.

HOWEVER,

The page of the audio track now only loads about 50% of the time the URL is entered. You'll get an error page, but keep refreshing and it eventually works properly. Very mysterious! This happens on my most recently uploaded track, which you can check the bug on.

This bug is confirmed by others checking out that particular track in another thread.

I had this happen to me... sort of... as well. When uploading my latest track, I went through "Audio -> Submit Yours! -> Picked the song MP3, entered all the usual info -> Preview -> Publish -> Error page saying the page could not be found."

However, I went to my profile after getting the error page and the song was there anyways, and I haven't had any problems playing it back.

Not sure if you can figure anything out about it now, seeing as it was just a little burp in the system it seems, but in case there's some coding behind the submission or something that helps, this is the song I got the error page on:

As a note, I've submitted 2 or 3 songs since the redesign, and this is the only one that gave me the error page.

This is really really minor, but you can't view the reviews page for a song anymore.

I think it's because you can flip through all the pages of reviews without going to a separate page anymore.

The audio edit page isn't actually an "official" page (that's why it looks a bit messy, there are totally random smileys on the left of each submission, etc...).

So yeah, some of the links there don't actually work. The staff definitely know about it and are in the process of fixing it, along with making notifications which tell you when you get a new review so you won't even need that page any more.

Ah, wait I see what you mean now when you say "doing stuff in other tabs" you mean having a second NG tab open.. If there is only one open it seems to work, though this is a huge inconvenience -_-.

Btw it makes the same glitch when right clicking on the audio player, not that that's a problem for me.

Response to Report Audio Portal Bugs Here 2012-03-02 15:21:13


For those getting the skipping glitches, what OS/browser are you using?

The player manually feeds the audio buffer (this lets it do some fancier things like the gapless looping and other sound processing), but it does use a bit more CPU and it could skip if your PC is very busy. And Flash tends to chug badly on Linux, which is probably the issue. I'll try to add a simpler playback option to fix this!

Response to Report Audio Portal Bugs Here 2012-03-03 11:26:36


Chrome 17 here. I thought it would happen less with Chrome since Chrome creates a process for each tab, but I still get the skipping when I'm doing stuff on other tabs. I'm on Windows 7 x64 too, by the way.
