I can’t get the mp3 plugin to work.
I have text under gold cart options which says:
MP3 Settings:
To create the 30 second MP3 file clips, this plugin needs SoX compiled with MP3 support, enter the path to SoX here.
There is no link to click.
I manually changed the path, but still no luck.
This is a brand new WP install, so latest version.

Do you have the SoX extension installed on your server?

Is it a WP extension? I have sox installed on the server, but the directions were unclear.

Not a WP extension…it should be installed on the server. And what directions are you speaking of being unclear?

I can’t get this to work, sox is in:
which sox
/usr/bin/sox
I changed the mp3_functions.php
//put the path to the sox executable here
if(file_exists(“/usr/bin/sox”))
{
$soxstring = “/usr/bin/sox -t mp3 $file_path -t mp3 $destination_path trim 0 00:30.0″;
$soxresult = shell_exec($soxstring);
}

If this isn’t resolved soon, I would like my money back. I have no idea what is supposed to happen, but it certainly doesn’t work.

You have a bug in your code:
<table class=’options’>
<tr>
<td colspan=’2′>
MP3 Settings:<br/>
To create the 30 second MP3 file clips, this plugin needs SoX compiled with MP3 support, enter the path to SoX here. </td>
</tr>
</table>
You can see this is not in a form, therefore there is nowhere to enter the path.

I have the same problem. There is nowhere to change the SoX path. I changed it in the php file, but still no luck. Sox, Lame, and Mad are all uploaded to folders in the main directory (www.famousbeats.net/sox). This is the code I’m currently using:
<?php
function make_mp3_preview($file_path, $destination_path)
{
// /usr/local/bin/sox
//put the path to the sox executable here
if(file_exists(“/sox”))
{
$soxstring = “/sox -t mp3 $file_path -t mp3 $destination_path trim 0 00:30.0″;
$soxresult = shell_exec($soxstring);
}
}
Was that the correct edit?
I think the SoX instructions were a little unclear. Do you have to run an install file on the server? I’m not to sure about Lame or Mad either.

Same problem still here!
“You only need sox if it is important to have the preview files created for you automatically but you don’t so they can upload them manually.”
The PHP Function ‘make_mp3_preview’ is only used in the admin pannel. But still the plugin is notworking..
I have send Dan some emails about support and now im trying to get my money back for the useless mp3 plugin!…
PLEASE DAN REPLY ON MY EMAILS! or give better support! dont sell useless plugin’s.
I want my $20 BACK!

I don’t know who you are or what email address you are emailing me from. I checked yours and there are none.
Please contact me directly – with subject line “mp3 support token request”. That way I’ll see it straight away 
We have made a patch recently which may resolve this problem of yours and there is no reason why you can’t manually upload files. Unless they are massive and php is timing out.

so if I read this right. I only need SOX if I want it to make the 30 sec clip for me but if I upload a 30 sec mp3 myself I don’t need it?

Thats right… you get the manual upload as standard…
and the SOX functionality is an extra (if you have SOX already installed)…
…
So if you can’t manually upload your tracts, best to contact dan, with the subject line “mp3 support token request”
