What might be the possible mistakes for onloaderror to trigger | help wanted

[chetansind]

I have used howler js to load audio files in IE 11, where I am not sure why it is triggering onloaderror.

What might the possible mistakes?

Please advise.

What error are you getting? The second argument passed is the error message.

[chetansind]

I'm not getting any error message in the console but the howler object is not creating, and triggering on onloaderror event.

In onLoaderror event, first argument value i'm getting is 848677182230 (hope it is ID ) and second argument value is 4.

Not sure what these values are and how to resolve the problem using these values.

That sounds like the file doesn't exist that you are trying to load. Can't really say more than that without seeing your actual code.

Thank you for your prompt response.

I have all the audio files in a folder named Audios and same thing works in chrome, but in IE 11 browser I'm facing this issue.

Let me explain the scenario where im using howler. I'm trying to pre-load a set of audio files from array values using for loop. I am sharing the code snippet below, does this help?

for (j = 0; j < sounds.length; j = j + 1) {
    loadSound(sounds[j].name, sounds[j].src, soundsDone); //soundsDone - callback to check the loading progress
}

function loadSound(name, path, callback){
   sounds[name] = new Howl({
       src: [path],
       preload: true
   });

  sounds[name].once('load', function(){             
    console.log("Loaded sound: - " + path);                                 
    if(callback !== undefined){
        callback();
    }
   });

  sounds[name].once('loaderror', function(e, msg){  
    console.log('Unable to load file: ' + name + ' | error message : ' + msg);
        console.log('First argument error ' + e);
  });
}

That error is coming from https://github.com/goldfire/howler.js/blob/master/src/howler.core.js#L1924. Are the demos on howlerjs.com working for you in IE11?

[chetansind]

What does the message code denote, as I'm getting second argument as 4?

I checked the demo url : http://www.javascriptoo.com/howler-js It is not working in IE 11 but it is working in chrome.

[goldfire]

The error code is from HTML5 Audio, it isn't a howler.js error code. That demo is using a very old version of howler.js. I'm referring to ones like https://howlerjs.com/#player or https://howlerjs.com/#sprite.

[chetansind]

Thanks for pointing it out. Will check with the latest version of howler 2.0.1 and get back to you.

What's the latest with this. We're using 2.0.9, and its not loading audio files for us on IE11?

[goldfire]

@danrostron Can you provide some more details? We aren't having any issues with IE11 with audio on our games.
