Assistance with mp3 file

I have gone over the forum and haven't been able to figure out the adding of a mp3 file, I am sure this has been asked before, but any input/reply would be helpful.
I have been trying to add a metronome mp3 file and having an issue, when I switch over onto the Visual tab the sound doesn't work, the sound works fine in the Script preview. I have searched the forum and have tried a couple suggestions but still doesn't want to work for me. I can save & preview in Script, but it doesn't work in Visual. When I go back to script, the editing has disappeared and back to the original.

Before adding the mp3, it looks like this;
pic("image.jpg"),
go(page2#)
);

Then after adding,
pic("image.jpg"),
go(page2#),hidden:sound('065-bpm.mp3')
);
Is there a procedure or steps I need to take to go back to the Visual after editing the Script, without losing my editing?

Thanks in advance,
mentoree :blush: :w00t:

try have hidden:sound on the next line? Nothing else looks wrong compared to my test script...

Try this script. Its a copy of the commands with an mp3 file from one of my teases. You can customize it for your tease.

page3#page(
'',
pic("cindy-23.jpg"),
go(page4#),
hidden:sound('rules.mp3')
);

:wave:

If the previous suggestions don't work try to add "id:" before the file name:

hidden:sound(id:'065-bpm.mp3')

Thank you all,
I figured it out, I was trying to add the mp3 file with only 2 pages before beginning another tease, but once I added a couple of more pages, it finally worked when I added the file after "go(page3#)" and so on.

Now I just need to find some more mp3 files, any thoughts on where I can find some, would appreciate it.

Cheers and thanks again, :-) :-/

If you are looking for metronome mp3 files try this site. It has beat from 65 to 250 bpm you can download:

You can also make a metronome beat using the recording program Audacity. It has a built in metronome feature.
