Hello, when I use fmod net\_stream library run in iOS, I want to play a net stream audio music, it throw a error, and can’t continue to play in this code:
```
result = sound->getOpenState(&openstate, &percent, &starving, 0);
```

It sounds like the Offline Render Audio Queue is not compatible with that net stream.
Try setting the exinfo.suggestedsoundtype, used to create the sound, to FMOD\_SOUND\_TYPE\_MPEG. This will force it to use the mpeg codec first.
