Hi,

I have a script that displays a sound half way through, this works on one laptop, however, when I change it to another laptop the script immediately breaks with the following errors;

File “C:\Users\maitland-local\Desktop\DASH\DASH Task_lastrun.py”, line 1315, in
run(
File “C:\Users\maitland-local\Desktop\DASH\DASH Task_lastrun.py”, line 426, in run

soundfile.LibsndfileError: Error opening ‘bleep-41488.mp3’: Error : bad data offset.
################# Experiment ended with exit code 1 [pid:5808] #################

I have tried changing the audio library but not no effect.

Thank you for any help.

This issue was is that I needed to change the sound file to 16bit, 44,1000 Hz. This I did via audacity. Follow link below to where I found the solution.
