I have created my Audio using the ONE project as example. it runs fine on Android devices but fails to run on desktop and my major concern iOS devices.

I am using an iphone 5 and ipad to test but no sound.

Hi Caeser!

Do you have problems with both SoundEffectVPlay (wav sounds) and BackgroundMusic (mp3 music)?
Maybe also the Application Output contains some information what might cause the sound to fail, can you have a look?
For the iOS devices: Can you also check if the hardware “mute” switch is turned off, as this also mutes the sound and is easy to overlook when testing.

Here is the error I receive from the Log Output

 

QSoundEffect(qaudio): Error decoding source

qml: ERROR: BackgroundMusic.onError received – error enum: 2 , errorString: Failed to load media – for source: file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Bundle/Application/50072D67-35F7-4686-BDCB-6360E35C95D9/assets/bg.mp3

 

I checked the mute its turned off and to my surprise One game audio works and another project of mine. I used the same implementation but the audio only works on Android.

Hi Caeser!

It’s very strange that the audio doesn’t work only for this project but is ok on all the others.
It is likely that you have an issue somewhere in this project.

Are you certain that everything is set up correctly like
– all audio files are correctly placed in the assets directory and
– the relative path and the file-names specified in QML are correctly set without typos (e.g. uppercase/lowercase errors)?

Best,

I guess I will have to build it again from scratch.

My game is very sluggish too on iOS devices and even when I tried other projects like One they all seem to be sluggish. I am using an iPhone 5 to test.

Is it about the game engine for the frame rate drop like when creating entities or when destroying them.

Entity creation and destruction can affect the performance a bit, especially when creating many entities at once. You can use entity pooling to improve the performance, as entities are then created by reusing previously created and currently unused entities. Otherwise entities are always destroyed and created from scratch. In addition, Debug builds also perform less good than Release builds for publishing, so this can also affect the frame rate.
