Hi all,

I need help, somebody knows if there are a way to play external (local) audio files in Node-Webkit?

I already do this when export a C2 Webapp at HTML5 format. I only need to upload the audio file to /media folder of C2 in my server and call it by "Play (by name)" command.

I put an audio file at Node/win32 folder and tried to call it by "Play (by name)" command with NodeWebkit.AppFolder&"audiofilename", but it do not work.

Hey I found this right now and it works!!!

Not sure why I didn't try this before, but if I just play by name (no matter the folder) like this

NodeWebkit.AppFolder&"/media/Here's Johnny" with out the file extension it WORKS

Apparently it needs to be an OGG. At least when I tried to load it by Here's Johnny.wav in the Node-Webkit dev tool it said cannot find

Here's Johnny.wav.ogg

Thanks anyway.
