Uploading mp3's via Media Topic is solved

[marleyman5]

Does anyone know if it's possible to upload mp3 files via Joomla's built-in Media Manager, and then add those MP3's into an Article?

Thank you for any help you can give me!

see https://docs.joomla.org/Help39:Componen ... Options/nl

Thanks for the reply. I have already done all of those steps via that same document and I get:
Error
Not a valid image.

So I'm dead in the water until I can figure this out.

Hello marleyman5

Did you add mp3 in the options of Media



and then here is a simple mp3 player :

Hope this help you

I added mp3 to the Legal Extensions (File Types) first but thanks. And the simple mp3 player is no longer being developed...hence my dilemma! :-(

Please tell me if I'm wrong (I haven't added filetypes to Media Manager for ages) but I seem to recall that the filetypes need to be in alphabetical order.

Probably a complete waste of a post but it might help.

hummmm, I'll try it - why not! Stay tuned...

First, are you able to upload a mp3 file by the way of media component ?

If yes, did you try allvideos. I use it before and it worked with mp3

No I can't upload mp3's via the media manager which is really want I want, because the client needs to do that. So I want to avoid any FTP that the client would need to do.

[bruno28]

did you add the type mime audio/mpeg in Legal MIME Types

and eventually increase Maximum Size (in MB) for upload

Yep. I did that too.

[bruno28]

do you have an error message or it does nothing

do you have a screenshot

[bruno28]

Yep. I did that too.

Try to uncheck Check MIME Types temporarily and then upload a mp3 file

Have a good day

Hello marleyman

are you able to upload files with these extensions : doc,jpg,pdf,png,xls ?

[marleyman5]

bruno28 I can upload everything except mp3's

[bruno28]

can you try to upload a very small mp3 less than 2 mb to see if you have a memory limit

[marleyman5]

they are all small mp3's and the Host which is me, has increased their memory and upload max tremendously

This is what I had to do to upload mp3, did you try it?

SOLVED!!
I take no credit for this! Ryan the JCE Developer figured it out!
Here is the source of the problem: Components -> RSFirewall -> Filewall Configuration -> Active Scanner
