Is this for everyone or is there a way to fix this error. I can always go back and forth between the two versions I have to use the sound, but just thought I would mention it.
I tried .wav files and .mp3, neither worked.
And I guess You may ask what type of system I have. I have a windows.
sound doesn’t work on Windows for me either. I get a warning: bool _thiscall Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend(void) phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
Also discovered sound is crashing the program during playback on Linux =oP
I also had a problem with the sound - error was related to phonon. If I ran in debug mode in visual studio 10 (using QT 4.8.5) the sound worked. I tried compiling and replacing with the release version of pencil.exe… no good, needed the debug version.
So, I compiled a debug version and when I ran that in the Pencil directory, I received errors about missing dll’s. For each dll missing, I went into the QT bin directory and copied from there into the directory where my pencil.exe was located. Worked. Must be a phonon/qt version thing.
I had to copy the phonond4.dll, qtguid4.dll qtSvgd4.dll Qtxmld4.dll maybe some others. But at least I now have sound.
Hopefully this will help the developers pin down what the issue is.
