I’m trying to import a MP3 into my fla but it wont import.

“one or more files would not import because there wehre problems reading them”

This is the waring message i get when i try to import. I"ve tried differnt FLA’s and saving hte file a differnt name and still nothing. Any ideas?

I’ve had some problems before with flash not being able to read things that I had downloaded (when I try to import them to the library, that is). Probably because they became corrupt during the xfer or when I unzipped them (I guess). If I were you, I would try to get a different fresh copy of the MP3 you want to use and try it again. When it happend to me, I picked different sound files. Good luck!

Do you have a program to convert it to a wav and then re-rip it?

the only thing i can think of is what freddy thunder said, convert it to wav and then convert back to mp3 and try, but you may loose a little quality

Can’t you get the raw wave from your client en encode them yourself? Then you can get real high quilty on low space. Most people don’t know how to compress.
