Save to output file in MP3 format

FMOD Engine

How can I use the playSound() method to output in MP3 format?

2

Have a look at the “output_mp3” example that ships with the API.

3

That example is not in the Windows and Universal Windows Platform bundle. Is it in another API?

In FMOD Studio API for Windows, if you install to the default directory, the example in question live here :

“C:\Program Files (x86)\FMOD SoundSystem\FMOD Studio API Windows\api\lowlevel\examples\plugins\output_mp3.cpp”

Does this example not exist anymore? I can’t seem to find it…

Hi,

The example does still exist, but “lowlevel” directory has been renamed “core” - the path it’s located at should now be “C:\Program Files (x86)\FMOD SoundSystem\FMOD Studio API Windows\api\core\examples\plugins\output_mp3.cpp”.
