Sample file for music

Post by trogladyte »

I know I can just use the actual full music file for people to be able to listen to prior to downloading, but the client has some nice 30 second clips as demo files. Is it possible to assign these demo files to the fileview area so these are heard rather than playing the full file?

I'm also using Ratmill's Pay Per Download for the paid download if this makes any impact.

EDIT: I think I have answered my own question. There are 3 files selections when setting up a download. I have a file assigned to each, and, in config, I have both Play and Preview set to yes. However, when I see the file (using view by category) the Details and Download buttons are showing but neither Play not Preview show. Is there another setting to be activated?

Hi, Play button is displayed in case:

- it is enabled in Options
- the file includes file for play (set in file edit)

I believe I have it set correctly - see images. I assume it can Preview or Play a .wav file?

Is there something I'm missing? Trying to get this working for a client who's wanting to sell their music.

Ah-ha. So the WAV file is the issue - thanks!
