QSound don't play wav in qtopia 1.5.4, 1.7.0 and 2.2.0

**alexandr** · 23rd January 2007, 15:34

I am trying to use QSound:

lay("sound/a.wav") and nothing happens.
The QSound::isavailable return true.
This happens (no sound) on the linux (suse 10.2) and on the zaurus (onboard compilation).
The wav file is 22050 and has length > 8Kb.

Thank you.

What does isFinished tell you?

**alexandr** · 25th January 2007, 09:26

The function IsFinished exist in the 4.xx version only.

Can you read "sound/a.wav" using QFile? Maybe you should try an absolute path?

**alexandr** · 26th January 2007, 20:17

An absolute path don't work too.
The sound file properties is:
Sample Rate: 11,025 Hz
Sample Size: 16 bit
Channels: 1
File size: 11,802 B

I can play it using OSS.
Now I have other problem, if I send wav stream to the /dev/dsp (using write), then on the start I have loud "crack/click".
Should I strip the wav header from the file and send raw stream (data chunk) only?
