MP3 Play and Pause

Hello all,

Im adding multiple mp3 files to a dingle document for digital publishing. Currently, when I export them and upload them to Digital Publishing Soluion, there is no way to play any of the mp3s by tepping on them.

So far, I understand I can create a bunch of buttons for play pause, but that would take forever and Im wondering if there is an easier way to play and pause mp3 files in a way similar to the way videos are played and paused.

Thanks!

OK, it sounds to me like you're doing the right things. And then I tried to replicate what you describe.

I hit the same problem. Audio isn't working the way it has in the past -- I suspect we have a bug of some kind.

I added an mp3, tried simple tap to play (should work this way) -- didn't work.

Added auto play, and got some weird interaction when I swiped to the next article, I think.

Added a button to play the audio, no luck, until I started swiping.

I'll let the PMs know.

Hi Colin,

I am using Digital Publishing Solution to publish onto an iPad mini, an iPad 2, and an multiple android devices. It was working on android devices fine but not the iPads.

I found that un-muting the iPads' ringtone allowed the mp3 files to play! That was my problem!

Thank you for the help! I appreciate it!

Splendid, thanks for the info. I'll let the engineers work on other things.
